hello kind sir, I have a question. If i am thinking about getting one of these SCBA's for the purpose of respiration in the context of using highly toxic VOC emitting stain and urethane products for finishing wood floors in confined space houses without the option for ventilation, would this be a reach? I really don't want to don a APR or PAPR system knowing that the filters all eventually become saturated with the airborne vapors and require replacement, which is only realized once breakthrough of those vapors past the filters is detected from smelling / tasting them; basically meaning that over exposure to the VOC's has already occured. The closest to this giant machine i have at my disposal is a standard air compressor. I really want to breathe truly fresh oxygen when on the job working with these terrible chemicals, but I feel as though this equipment may be far too expensive and inaccessible to someone my age, 23, and in my situation, only working with floors. trust me, these chemicals are very harsh and also terrible for your health. so, i find it kind of unfair that only firefighters seem to be the permissible cohort of people to use this equipment. please feel free to educate me, I could use all of it.

I couldn't tell if that was a crosslay control valve but it appeared there was no needle on the gauge? It may have been a color that was difficult to visually see.
@rafaelmantucci9303 5 ай бұрын
I think it is indeed quite faint. At about 4:16, you can see it a bit under the shadow at about 90 PSI, and it’s even easier to see the needles on the discharge closer to the camera.

Am I understanding thank the banks feed the inlet, inlet feeds the regulator, the regulator feeds the tank?

If your pressure dump into an empty tank, you will blow it away and the flying debris will hurt someone!
@scottweinbrecht2143 6 жыл бұрын
That's why you gravity dump initially, to get some water into tank to stabilize it, then pressure dump.

Hydrants what are those? Onboard tanks and porta-tanks and a lake.
@clifduy4259 7 жыл бұрын
I can't recall a single time I've called for a tanker and received an airplane. Or visa versa for that matter. If I'm ever in need of an aircraft on my structure fire I have way bigger problems then terminology. Just saying...

When you hook in from your hydrant, and flowing water from it, do you shut down your Tank to Pump, or leave it open?
@harlitherainingwolf7289 7 жыл бұрын
You close it after you're hooked into hydrant water.
@cody5090 7 жыл бұрын
I have seen it done either way, depends on the operator. One way i look at it is if for some reason you lose your hydrant your backup is ready to go right away no delay and safer for your men or women inside the structure.
@cody5090 7 жыл бұрын
You should be watching your supply enough that if you would lose it you should know right away. And in turn figure out why you lost it and if needed get your personal out of the structure, especially if you're going to have to shut down quickly depending how hard you're pumping. It all depends on the truck. I know with the aerial that i run i can go through that 500 gallons on board in about 30 seconds if we have a major fire. But on say the rural truck engine we have i know i have about 2 minutes of on board water if pumping hard. And our engine is also different, Depends on your equipment a lot as well and every call is different.

Mister X totally agree with you. It is common practice to shut your tank to pump valve as soon as you are on a pressurized supply, especially when you have a interior attack crew.
@rtazz17 6 жыл бұрын
Shut it. No matter what happens you have 500 gl to get your crew out of structure.

Brings back memories....it's been 40 years since I operated a pump, can't believe it has been that long.

Like riding a bike. Go down to visit your local station house. They'll probably invite you to dinner. June 29 2017 is my last shift after 34 years paid and two volunteer. Where did you operate fire pumps 40 years ago?

Charlton, NY. At the time it was a small farming area with housing developments popping up. Half of the district had hydrants. We had a 1964 Mack thermodyne engine tanker holding 1600 gallons of water and a 1958 Mack engine holding 800 gallons. Both 750 pumps. We had a 1944 Chevrolet on a Buffalo frame. That held 500 gallons and had a 500 pump. We used that a lot for brush fires. Wasn't fwd but could go any ware. Our rescue truck was a 1958 Chevrolet on a 3/4 ton frame. Custom body that held medical supplies and other misc equipment related to our needs. They have replaced all vehicles with newer equipment.

Few questions Can you vacuum draft and pump water at same time for like a relay or supply operation? What type of pump are you using for the crosslays and can you draft and pump at same time or no? Can the pump be used to draft for standard operations? Is the pump a portable or a PTO type pump?
@nicolemihalow9523 8 жыл бұрын
KosukiFire I have seen a video in which a vacuum tanker is supplying other tankers due to the engine at the fill site had trouble with a draft.
@clifduy4259 7 жыл бұрын
No the unit is not designed to draft and pump at the same time. The vacuum pump works by moving air in the tank, and having the fire pump on disturbs that draft. All of the hoselines are pumped via a 1000 GPM traditional PTO fire pump. The pump can draft but it is not optimal due to the location of the large diameter intake. It is very low and capped. a fire engine would be a better choice for relay pumping.
