Q

Each hand portable fire extinguisher must be marked with __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for fire protection equipment markings on inspected vessels • What information must stay with the extinguisher even if it is moved to another vessel or another location on the same vessel • The difference between a permanent identifier and information that can change over time (like crew or vessel name)

💭 Think About

• Ask which of these markings would still be correct if the extinguisher were moved to a different spot or a different vessel • Consider what the Coast Guard and inspectors need in order to track, inspect, and replace specific extinguishers • Decide which option represents a durable, unique way to reference that particular extinguisher in records or logs

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which options could become incorrect or obsolete if crew, ownership, or vessel name changes • Check which choice best supports maintenance and inspection records over the life of the extinguisher • Confirm which item is normally required by regulation and manufacturers as a standard marking on portable extinguishers
