Description
Preface
This is the common ULSE and ULC Standard for Water Fire Extinguishers. It is the Fourth edition of CAN/ULC 507, and the Eighth edition of ANSI/UL 626.
This common Standard was prepared by iUL Standards & Engagement Inc. (ULSE), ULC Standards, and the UL/ULC Extinguisher Technical Harmonization Committee.
This Standard was formally approved by the ULC Standards Committee on Portable Fire Extinguishers.
Only metric SI units of measurement are used in this Standard. If a value for measurement is followed by a value in other units in parentheses, the second value may be approximate. The first stated value is the requirement.
In Canada, there are two official languages, English and French. All safety warnings must be in French and English. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some Canadian authorities may require additional markings and/or installation instructions to be in both official languages.
Note: Although the intended primary application of this Standard is stated in its Scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the users of the Standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose.
Level of Harmonization
This Standard used an ISO format, but is not based on, nor shall it be considered equivalent to, an ISO standard. This Standard is published as an identical standard.
An identical standard is a standard that is the same in technical content except for conflicts in Codes and Governmental Regulations. Presentation shall be word for word except for editorial changes. Interpretations
The interpretation by the standards development organization of an identical or equivalent standard shall be based on the literal text to determine compliance with the standard in accordance with the procedural rules of the standards development organization. If more than one interpretation of the literal text has been identified, a revision shall be proposed as soon as possible to each of the standards development organizations to more accurately reflect the intent.
1 Scope
1.1 These requirements cover the construction and performance, exclusive of performance during fire tests, of water fire extinguishers. Water fire extinguishers are intended to be utilized in accordance with the Standard for Portable Fire Extinguishers, NFPA 10, and the National Fire Code of Canada.
1.2 These requirements cover stored-pressure, water fire extinguishers that use a single chamber for both the extinguishing agent and the expellant gas.
1.3 The extinguishers covered by these requirements may be charged with plain water, an antifreeze or a loaded-stream solution. See Extinguishing Agent, Clause 23.
1.4 The requirements for performance during fire testing of stored-pressure water fire extinguishers are specified in the Binational Standard for Rating and Fire Testing of Fire Extinguishers, ANSI/UL 711 CAN/ULC-S508.
1.5 As used in these requirements, the term "extinguisher" refers to all extinguishers or any part thereof covered by these requirements, unless specifically noted otherwise.
