Fire Pump Testing Tutorial

Fire Pump Testing Tutorial

Fire Pump Testing Tutorial

(OP)
Original thread184-275415: Testing Fire Pumps - A tutorial you might find helpful

Does SD2 or anyone by chance has the file originally uploaded by SprinklerDesigner2?

The link doesn't seem to work as it's an old post. Any info. relevant to fire pump testing is what I am looking for.

If I get chance to witness a pump test, Would want to go there knowing why I am there for
Newbie in sprinklers but determined to learn and I will always be..

I appreciate your support and thanks for your time.


RE: Fire Pump Testing Tutorial

The only way to learn is go out and do them! Contact contractors in your area and see if you can tag along and hump hose and be the gofer. The Chubb link is hands on training with testing 2 fire pump, one diesel and one electric. If you are close to NJ check it out, next pump class is in the fall.

Nice video, only thing I question is why would you expose yourself to electrical shock to take volt and amp readings, when the controller provides the info on the front LCD panel? I guess he wanted to show off his arc flash suit....LOL

Thank you all for your guidance

FPST,
Thanks for the link to the presentation, it's actually quite good and self explanatory.

Yes, I am looking forward to grab the opportunity to go out and flow "few drops". (under Expert Supervision for sure).

I am in Alberta, Canada but would definitely want to come up to attend some of these recommended training courses.
