(b) Nonrechargeable Fire Extinguisher. A nonrechargeable (nonrefillable) fire extinguisher is not capable of (nor intended to be capable of) undergoing complete maintenance, hydrostatic testing, and being restored to its full operating capability by the standard practices used by fire equipment dealers and distributors. Some fire extinguishers that are physically rechargeable are marked nonrechargeable and are therefore considered for purpose of this regulation to be nonrechargeable (nonrefillable) fire extinguishers.
