Fire Hose Tester - Gas - 3.5 GPM - 1000 PSI
The FH series of fire hose testers from Rice Hydro allows you to take control of your hose testing in-house and are designed to safely test fire hose up to 6″ in diameter. The FH2 testers are powered by a gasoline motors (Honda or Briggs) and use a Triplex ceramic plunger hydrostatic pump with an inner oil bath to ensure a long pump life and increased stability while testing. The FH2 tester offers flows of 3.5GPM with test pressures up to 1,000 PSI.
The heavy duty manifold comes standard with four discharges; each discharge is independently controlled with a stainless steel ball valve so you have precise control of each hose line being tested. Unique to the RICE Hydro line of fire hose testers is a ball valve strategically placed on the inlet piping that allows the user to fill with “LARGE VOLUME at LOW PRESSURE” and test with “LOW VOLUME at HIGH PRESSURE”, eliminating the elements that can cause wild/uncontrolled lines.
