IMO Fire Extinguisher Sign – FS0001

This fire extinguisher sign shows the standard pictogram of a portable extinguisher against flames, marking the exact location of a fire extinguisher so crew and passengers can find it instantly in an emergency. It is one of the most widely fitted signs on any vessel, since every portable fire extinguisher required under SOLAS must be clearly identified with signage at its stowage point.

Fast identification matters most in the first moments of a fire, when smoke, poor lighting, or unfamiliar surroundings can make locating equipment difficult. This fire extinguisher sign uses a high-contrast, photoluminescent design so it remains visible even if power is lost or visibility is reduced by smoke, guiding crew straight to the extinguisher without delay.

Where this fire extinguisher sign is used

This fire extinguisher sign is mounted directly above or beside every portable fire extinguisher location throughout a vessel, including accommodation spaces, machinery spaces, galleys, engine rooms, and open decks. Extinguisher locations are typically spaced so that no part of a working area is far from an extinguisher, and each one needs its own clearly marked fire extinguisher sign.

Installing this fire extinguisher sign is straightforward: clean the mounting surface near the extinguisher bracket and apply using the sign’s adhesive backing or fixings, positioning it at eye level directly above the unit where possible. Crew should confirm during routine safety rounds that every fire extinguisher sign remains legible and that the extinguisher beneath it is present, in date, and unobstructed.

Regulatory context

Portable fire extinguishers and their signage requirements are set out in SOLAS Chapter II-2 and the associated Fire Safety Systems Code, which specify the number, type, and distribution of extinguishers required on board. Surveyors conducting fire safety inspections check that every extinguisher location carries a fire extinguisher sign and that the sign matches the extinguisher type actually installed.

Keeping every fire extinguisher sign current and correctly matched to its extinguisher supports compliance with SOLAS firefighting equipment requirements and ensures crew can locate and use the right extinguisher without hesitation during an emergency.
