ANALISIS INSPEKSI APAR CO₂ OLEH PERSONEL AIRPORT RESCUE AND FIREFIGHTING (ARFF) DALAM MENDUKUNG KESIAPSIAGAAN KEBAKARAN DI BANDAR UDARA INTERNASIONAL YOGYAKARTA

Inspeksi APAR CO₂ merupakan bagian penting dari upaya menjaga kesiapsiagaan penanggulangan kebakaran di Bandar Udara Internasional Yogyakarta. Karakteristik APAR CO₂ yang tidak dilengkapi pressure gauge menjadikan penimbangan sebagai metode utama untuk memastikan kondisi bahan pemadam, namun pelaksanaannya di lapangan belum berjalan secara berkala meskipun inspeksi bulanan telah dilaksanakan secara rutin. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis kesesuaian pelaksanaan inspeksi APAR CO₂ dengan Instruksi Kerja dan regulasi yang berlaku, serta merumuskan rekomendasi penyempurnaannya. Penelitian menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi, dengan teknik analisis data berupa gap analysis terhadap standar NFPA 10 dan PERMENAKER No. 04/MEN/1980. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan inspeksi telah sesuai dengan ketentuan inspeksi bulanan, namun penimbangan berkala setiap enam bulan sekali belum diterapkan secara konsisten, kondisi ini turut dipengaruhi oleh keterbatasan fasilitas penimbangan serta kendala akses pada sejumlah ruangan terkunci, sehingga keandalan bahan pemadam belum dapat dipastikan secara optimal. Berdasarkan temuan tersebut, direkomendasikan penegasan ketentuan periode penimbangan dalam Instruksi Kerja, peningkatan koordinasi akses ruangan, serta penyediaan fasilitas penimbangan yang memadai guna memperkuat kesiapsiagaan penanggulangan kebakaran di Bandar Udara Internasional Yogyakarta.

The inspection of CO₂ fire extinguishers is an important part of efforts to maintain fire response readiness at Yogyakarta International Airport. Since CO₂ fire extinguishers are not equipped with a pressure gauge, weighing serves as the primary method for verifying the condition of the extinguishing agent; however, this has not been implemented periodically, despite monthly inspections being carried out routinely. This study aims to analyze the compliance of CO₂ fire extinguisher inspection with the applicable Work Instructions and regulations, and to formulate recommendations for improvement. A qualitative descriptive method was employed through observation, interviews, and documentation, with data analyzed using a gap analysis approach against NFPA 10 and PERMENAKER No. 04/MEN/1980. The results indicate that inspections have been conducted in accordance with the monthly requirements; however, periodic weighing every six months has not been consistently implemented. This condition is further influenced by limited weighing facilities and access constraints in several locked rooms, so the reliability of the extinguishing agent cannot yet be optimally ensured. Based on these findings, it is recommended to reinforce periodic weighing provisions within the Work Instructions, improve coordination for room access, and provide adequate weighing facilities to strengthen fire response readiness at Yogyakarta International Airport
