What Kind of Hose Is Safe for Drinking Water
For non-fire workers, fire fighting equipment may not be available, but once there is a problem when it is used, it may be related to life. For fire workers, it is more important to check whether the fire equipment is normal. Today, let’s talk about how to check the fire fighter hoses daily?

The fire fighter hose length: Open the whole roll of fire hose, tape measure accurately measure its total length, accurate measurement or including fire hose interface, the measured data with the lining fire hose of nominal length to take in, such as fire hose length less than 1 m above the fire hose length specifications, which can be found the goods is not up to standard;
4. Pressure test: 1.2m long fire hose is extracted, the manual pressure test pump or electric pressure test pump is used to smoothly charge to the test pressure, hold the pressure for 5min, check whether there is leakage, if there is leakage, the standard is not reached. Under the test pressure, continue to charge and boost the pressure until the sample burst, and the pressure when the burst should not be less than 3 times of the working pressure of the fire hose.
