Maintenance scope

Systems and equipment

Each system has its own inspection points and test evidence. The final MOP reflects the installed equipment and the site's operating requirements.

01Detection

ASD / VESDA

Detector status, filters and standby power. Sampling pipe connections, alarm outputs and event history.

02Detection

Fire alarm

Control panel, detectors, manual call points, sounders and interfaces. Functional and event checks.

03Suppression

FM-200 clean agent

Releasing panel, battery, module circuits, cylinders, pressure, actuators, pipework and nozzles.

04Suppression

Pre-action sprinkler

Valve trim, air and water pressure, supervisory switches and solenoid. Valve reset and restoration.

05Response

Fire extinguishers

Location, mounting, cylinder condition, pressure gauge, seal, hose and service status.

06Response

Fire hose reels & pumps

Reels, hoses, valves, duty and jockey pumps. Start sequence, pressure and recorded readings.

07Response

Fire hydrants

Outlet valves, caps, hose connections, access, pressure and inspection records.

08Communication

Public address

Rack, amplifiers, speakers and zones. Announcement and interface checks.

09Communication

Fireman intercom

Master station, handsets and call points. Communication checks and recorded results.

Work process

From planned visit to restored protection

Preparation, execution and close-out follow one controlled sequence.

  1. 01

    Plan the work

    Confirm the calendar, asset list, access windows and system interfaces.

  2. 02

    Prepare the MOP

    Document the test sequence, permits, notifications, isolations and rollback steps.

  3. 03

    Execute safely

    Brief the team, control impairment and accidental discharge risk, then record test readings.

  4. 04

    Restore protection

    Return equipment to service and verify the normal system state.

  5. 05

    Issue the report

    Provide results, photo evidence, defects and follow-up actions.
