LUF Long Distance Water Supply

Water transportation over long distances.
Example fields of application: Water supply for large fires over long distances, In case of floodings to remove water, drinking water supply...
Basic set-up:
Two oil-hydraulically operated floating pumps are set down in the water and transport approx. 11,000 litres of water per minute (per floating pump approx. 5,500 litres of water per minute) at 2.5 bar over a distance of up to 60 metres to a booster pump on the mainland. The booster pump transports these 11,000 litres of water per minute at 12 bar over a distance of 6 km in a Ø300 mm hose to its destination.
Configuration Options:
Configuration 1:
After the water transport with the first booster pump over 6km, as described in the basic set-up, a second booster pump can be used to transport the water even further. This means that 11,000 litres of water per minute can be supplied over a distance of 12 km.
Configuration 2:
It is also possible to connect two independent units of the pump container in parallel. This means that 4 oil-hydraulic floating pumps and 2 booster pumps are used, which means that 22,000 litres of water per minute can be transported over 6 km in two Ø300 mm hoses to the destination.

Funny how no one seems to understand that this system is not intended as a primary water source. It is used when you need big amounts of water over long distances like industrial fires or bush fires. We are talking 11000l/minute over a distance of 6km. Of course it is not built up in 2 minutes.

[@1999Cheker]

@wout kwanten 15-30 minutes plus an additional 15 min to fill up the hoses depends on the number of people you have available. In germany we have a system that is more efficient and faster. Just look for Hytrans Fire System (HFS)

For those people trying to criticize it without looking further, this system is for long operations requiring lots of water. For example industrials fires, warehouse fires, forest fires also. THIS IS NOT a primary water source, most of the time water from hydrants is used to tackle smaller fires so no they didn’t take long to get set up. Unless you guys have seen fire departments tackle big forest and industrial fires in minutes which I highly doubt.

Work smarter, not harder. Pass on this setup. I can see this being viable in a very narrow set of instances of long term operation of exposure protection is required. Setup time is horrendous considering the results. But for a long term operation, having that output on unmanned equipment could be very beneficial.

[@EnjoyFirefighting]

" Setup time is horrendous considering the results" which result? Being able to flow large amounts of water with only one truck instead of numerous trucks on one line or running as shuttle. Of course this isn't what you use every day or once a week, but there are definetly scenarios where large capacity pumps are necessary ... not only large structure fires, but especially during floods. Guess that's why the German Federal Agency for Technical Relief came as mutual aid to the USA after Hurricane Katrina

[@axel5111]

It's definately worth the effort. German fire engines flow around 2000L per minute, so this system can supply around 5 engines. It'll take at least 5 engines to supply 1 engine over 2 km's. Basically, this thing does what 25 engines normally do. Simple maths: it takes time to set up, but compared to the alternative it's cheaper and easyer to set up. EDIT: I just now realised we are talking 12 km's, wich make the numbers even more ridiculous.

[@EricWhiteTheGamer]

Well .. Call the Dutch . . . :-) Basically, it's a Dutch invention from the 70's and one of the main manufacturers is based in Holland (Hytrans). Over here, every district has several of these standard hook-pods, which can also be transported by civil trucks like those of construction Cie's Not only used for Industrial/Forest fires, but also for large normal fires, where the hydrant systems lacks capacity. In most districts, there called by protocol in case of 'Large Fire' (3 pumps) or worse. Typical deployment time from call to water approx 30mins

[@robertcallahan9940]

[@c165vin]

This system has been well thought out, but its not a fast deploy system. It's for a long time and distance water supply. Maybe for use after a earthquake or any long lasting disaster that could use all the water in a city supply. Its use is to augment a water system.

Carl Loar California has similar systems in use, although the Cal Fire usually uses fire retardant, fire lines, and air support to fight most wild fires, they have used very similar set ups for massive industrial firws

[@overlordgaming752]

lee rice “long distance water supply” it’s not designed to go up a mountain, it’s a supply line. It’s designed to bring water along a long area that lacks a hydrant or a static source to draft off of, allowing firefighters to have water without using a shuttling system with drop tank and lots of tankers. Misusing a system for something it was never designed to do is no reason to write it off

[@overlordgaming752]

lee rice no. No one ever said it was, is California one giant mountain? No. There are flatter areas and large roaming hills. Wild land tactics change between them. If I need to set up a forward supply location to fill up a helicopter to allow it to more effectively do it’s job, I can use a long supply line to do that. If we’re utilizing rolling pumpers I can set a fill point much closer to the location of attack, if we’re trying to hold the line at a series of houses, we can use multiple long supply lines and boost pumpers to set up 1 1/2 attack lines with combo nozzles and create a fog cover to keep the fire back. There’s tons of ways you can utilize a system like this, although I don’t expect someone who doesn’t fight fire to understand the massive utility a system like this could offer the teams in the fields. There’s no way in hell someone’s dragging this line anywhere, supply line weighs enough dry, trying to haul any more then 500 feet with multiple people becomes an extremely difficult task, hense the truck deployment method shown in the video, alleviating the need for someone to drag 10,000 feet + of supply line. This is quite obviously designed to be used to extend my water source not being water up a mountain.

[@overlordgaming752]

lee rice fire equipment is pricy, always has been and always will be. The fire department I’m on just finished paying off a 1.2 million dollar 100 foot ladder truck, the tax payers pay for their own safety, how much their willing to fund us will directly affect our ability to keep you safe. You should talk to your local fire department and see if they have the money to keep up with what’s required of them, the personnel, or anything in general. Unless your in a large city everyone is understaffed, underfunded and under equipped. I’m a tax payer too and I know my taxes go to necessary equipment. Btw that truck costs less than a fire engine, so mr tax payer, would you rather help your state buy a new engine at the price of 750,000 dollars or buy one of these for 300,000? To be honest I think it’s pretty shit of you to say something like that, how would you feel if it was your house or your property and the fire department didn’t have something they needed, what if they have to wait 30+ minutes to get water because of the shuttle distance, your arrogance and misunderstanding of the fire service is astounding since you think your opinion means anything at all, instead of being useless waste of oxygen how about you actually volunteer and do something

and then there are situations where mutual aid responses from abroad (!) are necessary to deal with the events which hardly ever happen but definetly will at some time ... Concerning your statement "very expensive, limited purpose vehicle" ... look closely at the video. It's a Pod Carrier / Roll-off container truck / hooklift truck: that equipment pod is special and purpose-built, but the truck can be used for dozens of different special equipment pods (containers), so this is far from limited purpose. It's not an entire truck built for only one purpose, but a carrier truck designed to handle all kinds of rarely used special equipment pods. They can range from Heavy Rescue to foam tanks, tanks with frozen carbondioxide and to nitrogen vaporizers, hazmat, decontamination, radiation protection, collapse rescue, crane equipment, basically any special operation you can think of

I have to wonder what the advantages of these long lays are over tankers. Surely the friction loss is too high for this to be that beneficial.

[@Jehty_]

Tank trucks can carry 20.000 to 43.000 liter. This system can transport 11.000 liter per minute. Let's assume you need the water in a distance of 6km, a tanker can travel between these two points at 50km/h and holds 30.000 liter. So just to deliver the same amount of water this system does with 2 trucks you would need 5 tankers. (and that doesn't include the time it would need to fill the tankers) And on top of that, after the LUF system is deployed both trucks can be used for something else (both are swap-body-vehicles)

buy tankers, geez, one guy can operate it.

[@EnjoyFirefighting]

Trust me, we have many Tankers covering the entire range, but for the large jobs we have the equipment to operate LDH for water supply and attack, so why not use it? SOme operations simply don't work efficiently by using Tankers ... take floods as an example, how do you pump those large amount of water by using only Tankers? I guess there's a good reason why the German Federal Agency for Technical relief came with high volume pumps as mutual aid to New Orleans ...

@@gw62112009 not one at every department, but here they are purchased by relatively large city FDs and industrial FDs, depending on the location and size of the department sometimes also at FDs in large towns. There are definetly far more specialized types of apparatus and pieces of equipment, of course all of them require training. Let it be desinfection, CBRNE, EOD, nitrogen vaporizer, frozen carbondioxide, remote controlled fire-fighting support units, fire and rescue trains, tunnel fire apparatus, turbine powered aerosol extinguisher apparatus, ... These systems aren't meant to be used only in the departments' primary response areas but they can cover a greater area for mutual aid, within the country or abroad if necessary. Some monitors of the Hytrans high flow system are able to handle up to 14,000 gpm ... that's quite a bit more than the former FDNY Superpumper was able to supply. Tankers are great, no doubt, but some things simply don't really work with Tankers ... we have tiny to super large Tankers based on single trucks, semi trucks and truck + trailer combinations, but it's simply not sufficient and they are usually more expensive than one such piece of equipment pod

The pins fall into a little bracket that is midline to each section. At 5:05 there is a decent view of the brackets. The smaller sections on the ends of the ramps do not seem to have the same bracket though. Which seems odd

Its a neat setup, but very limited usage. Would be ok in wildfire but wildfires move so fast by the time its setup it would either already be on fire or missed the fire entirely. Maybe massive multi alarm industrial fires that are remote(no Hydrants in the area) and also have a large body of water within 15km... but i cant see those being a common occurrence either...and even then if the fire is that large and remote its just going to be a let it burn scenario anyways as there is likely nothing left worth saving. Unlikely it could be setup in time during a flooding scenario to make difference. Once the flood has happened the damage is done, there is no rush to quickly move the water again. Its hard to imagine such a critical drinking water supply that would fail and needed that much volume in rapid response.

[@EnjoyFirefighting]

some wildfires don't move that fast; But yes it's basically for any extraordinary large fire scenario where big water supply is required and the hydrant network might not be able to supply that amount. Also for flood scenarios where you want to pump large amounts of water out of an area. Damage might be done already, but you don't want to keep the water in a low area for weeks or even months, and you don't want to tie dozens of relatively small fire apparatus with their average size hoses and pump capacities on such a scenario. Also that pumping might make the difference if further areas will be affected or not, if a dike withstands the pressure or not. The USA already had the scenario that mutual aid had to come from abroad with high volume pumps to support local departments and crews in such a flood scenario

[@Biffo1262]

Never used ramps over large diameter hose from the hose layer. We just closed the road. No problem. Those hose ramps are very labour intensive and the UK fire services are so low on manpower things like that just aren't practical. The UK fire services used to be the best in the world but thanks to successive governments they are a shadow of what they used to be. As for morale....rock bottom. Oh how I envy countries whose governments put a premium on their emergency services .

[@EnjoyFirefighting]

why not? There are also larger ramps which are specificly suited for LDH?! Closing down some roads might not make sense, even for emergency vehicles heading to or leaving the scene; Just because they're low on manpower in the UK doesn't mean that the departments elsewhere are low on manpower as well. Last year I filmed a full house response with 18 emergency vehicles in Germany....

[@martinschreurs1]

In the Netherlands there are since 1998 more than 100 of similar systems in action. The purpose is to bring water over up to 3 kilometre for feeding firetrucks when needed. Every Safety Region (Kreis) has at least one of these units. See an excercise at : kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZ3Uf42FqLSlh68
