Pump Testing
Fire pump testing is a necessary part of fire apparatus safety. It ensures the proper functioning of your equipment. However, annual testing can be a hassle. DPC Emergency takes the stress out of pump testing:
- Our expert technicians are NFPA qualified (NFPA 1911 4.3).
- We strictly follow NFPA (NFPA 1911 18.7.7.1) and DOT guidelines regarding pump tests.
- Provide a consistent & reliable testing environment for reliable results.
We test on-site to ensure we meet the recommendation of ten gallons of usable water in the pump test pit for each GPM of pump capacity. Our pump test pit contains two tanks totaling 26,000 gallons. This ensures that we are able to provide a reliable test environment to reduce the number of unnecessary repairs due to poor pump performance. We pump at 100, 70, and 50 percent of the pump rating and in accordance with the overload test. If the apparatus is equipped with a water tank, the tank-to-pump flow rate is checked.
