Fire extinguishing grenades and firefighting pumps with or without internal reservoirs are specifically excluded from the heading, and the only extinguishers covered are "the kind which use foam-producing or other charges."

The Explanatory Notes to heading Nos. 84.24 and 38.13 suggest that the term "fire extinguishers," as it is used in the nomenclature and the Explanatory Notes, includes fixed fire extinguishers, such as fire extinguishing systems, provided they use foam-producing or other charges.

The Explanatory Notes to heading No. 84.24 provide that goods classifiable as "fire extinguishers, whether or not charged" in heading No. 84.24 include "extinguishers, filled or not, of the kind which use foam-producing or other charges, including simple extinguishers fitted with taps, valves, percussion caps or other opening devices."
