Fire pump series

A fire monitor—also called a fire truck water cannon or vehicle-mounted monitor—is a core component of modern fire truck apparatus. It discharges high-volume water streams or firefighting foam, helping firefighters suppress fires in high-rise buildings, industrial facilities, and other areas that are difficult to approach directly or present significant safety risks. But choosing the r...

The top of a fire truck water tank is not a flat cover—it is a working platform that integrates filling, ventilation, overflow protection, firefighting equipment, and crew safety. Every component mounted on the fire truck tank top serves a specific function during water supply and firefighting operations. Understanding this fire truck layout is essential for apparatus specifiers, pump operat...

Fire truck tank baffles work on the principles of slosh suppression and energy dissipation in fluid mechanics. When a fire truck accelerates, brakes, or turns during driving, the water inside the tank generates severe sloshing forces. By installing perforated partitions inside the tank, baffles divide the large water volume into multiple smaller compartments. The orifice throttling effect dissipat...

Operating a fire truck pump requires the correct sequence of valve operation, water supply connection, pump priming, PTO engagement, and pump start-up. Before operating the system, the operator should confirm that the fire truck is safely positioned and that all valves, pipelines, and control devices are in the correct positions.     This guide describes the standard operating procedure ...

During fire apparatus procurement, our customers typically prioritize chassis performance, fire pump flow and pressure ratings, and firefighting system configuration. However, the choice of fire truck water tank material is equally important, as it directly affects the vehicle's service life, corrosion resistance, maintenance cost, and long-term operational reliability.     As a professi...

The reliability of a fire truck depends on the maintenance system behind it. Proper operation and responsible use of fire apparatus and specialized firefighting equipment are essential to ensuring that the vehicle performs its function—and directly determine whether a fire truck can complete firefighting and rescue tasks quickly in an emergency. Fire departments worldwide follow structured d...

The PH series around-the-pump foam proportioner is a professional foam concentrate suction and delivery device designed specifically for foam firefighting systems and fire trucks. It is installed within the supporting fire truck fire pump and water supply system and serves as the core device for achieving automatic proportional mixing of foam concentrate and clean water. Unlike traditional manual ...

The effectiveness of firefighting operations depends heavily on the reliability and design of a fire truck's water supply system. A properly designed fire truck water system allows the vehicle to fill its water tank from an external water source, draft water from suitable static sources when necessary, and deliver pressurized water through hoses, nozzles, or fire monitors.     This artic...

Foam fire trucks combine a dedicated foam concentrate tank with a separate water tank and a precision proportioning system. They use a proportioning system to introduce foam concentrate into the water stream at a specified concentration, commonly 1%, 3%, or 6%, depending on the foam concentrate and firefighting application. The dual-tank design allows firefighters to use water alone when...
