    The condition usually follows the absorption and later evaporation of an unusual amount of moisture. It is often confused with packing – a condition produced by normal settling, by vibration or by impact. There is no known case in which there is evidence that an ANSUL extinguisher was made inoperative as a result of packing. A simple procedure to determine which condition exists is the Underwriters Laboratories four inch drop to a clean hard surface test.
