Description
A Fire Hydrant System is a critical firefighting installation designed to deliver high-pressure water supply for controlling and extinguishing fires. Commonly installed in commercial, industrial, and residential buildings, this system ensures rapid response during emergencies and supports both internal and external firefighting operations. Built to meet international fire safety standards, it is a mandatory component of any robust fire protection plan.
Key Components of a Fire Hydrant System
1. Fire Hydrant Valves
Robust and corrosion-resistant valves designed to deliver water instantly when connected to a fire hose. Available in:
-
Single Landing Valve
-
Double Outlet Valve
-
Breeching Inlets
2. Fire Hose Pipes
High-quality, heat-resistant hoses that allow firefighters to direct water precisely onto the fire. Options include:
-
RRL (Reinforced Rubber Lined) hose
-
Canvas hose
-
CP hose
3. Fire Hose Reel
Wall-mounted reels that allow immediate deployment with continuous water flow. Ideal for quick suppression of small fires.
4. Fire Pumps
High-capacity pumps (Main/Jockey/Standby) that ensure consistent pressure in the hydrant system. Diesel and electric options available.
5. Underground & Overhead Water Tanks
Dedicated water storage tanks that provide uninterrupted water supply to hydrants during an emergency.
How the System Works
A Fire Hydrant System operates by maintaining pressurized water within the network of pipelines. When a hydrant valve is opened:
-
Water flows through hydrant outlets at high pressure.
-
Firefighters attach hoses and nozzles to control the direction and intensity of water.
-
Pumps automatically regulate pressure to maintain continuous flow.
This ensures quick suppression and minimizes fire spread.
Features of Our Fire Hydrant System
1. High Water Pressure Performance
Engineered to deliver constant high pressure, ensuring effective firefighting even in multi-story buildings.
2. Durable & Weather-Resistant Construction
All components are constructed from premium cast iron, brass, or stainless steel, ensuring long life and corrosion resistance.
3. Automatic Pump Activation
Once pressure drops, the jockey pump activates automatically, followed by the main pump for continuous firefighting support.
4. Easy Operation
Hydrant points are clearly marked and easily accessible, enabling rapid response in emergencies.
5. Compliant With International Standards
Designed according to:
-
NFPA 14 / NFPA 20
-
British Standards (BS 5041 / BS 5306)
-
Local Civil Defense Requirements
