HT-90 E 115V Hydrostatic Test Pump 1/2 HP Ball Bearing Motor
This HT-90E Hydrostatic Test Pump provides up to 300 PSI of pressure and 3.0 GPM with a 1/2 HP motor. This pump has the power required for most NFPA hydrostatic tests on small and medium-sized buildings with pipe diameters below six inches. This compact pump is roughly one cubic foot in size and carries easily with a sturdy, easy-carry handle.
This pump's 1/2 HP ball bearing motor has a service factor of 115%, allowing continuous operation at 0.575 horsepower without damaging the pump. The Triple R HT-90E also includes 10 ft. of discharge hose with quick-disconnect couplings that make it easy to demonstrate to fire officials that the system is successfully maintaining pressure.
This 3.0 GPM Hydrostatic Test Pump includes a liquid-filled pressure gauge, stabilizing the gauge needle for better performance and longer product life in pulsating or vibrating environments. This pump weighs in at only 32 pounds, making it a comparable, lightweight alternative to the Reed EHTP500, Reed EHTP500, and Rice's EL1 and EL1A model pumps.
Each 300 PSI Hydrostatic Test Pump is ideal for small and medium-scale fire safety applications, including fire sprinkler and standpipe acceptance and revision testing, as well as small-scale water transfers or vent-line filling in carpet cleaning, water damage restoration, and various plumbing applications. The swiveled inlet connection and included supply hose make connecting a water source easy from any angle.
How are hydrostatic test pumps used in fire protection?
In fire protection, hydrostatic test pumps are used to perform critical testing on various pressure-containing components of fire suppression systems. These pumps are utilized to subject fire hoses, fire extinguishers, sprinkler pipes, pressure tanks, and other pressurized equipment to higher-than-normal operating pressures to verify their structural integrity and ability to withstand the pressures they may encounter during firefighting operations.
By conducting hydrostatic tests, fire protection professionals can ensure that these components are free from leaks, cracks, or weaknesses, ensuring their reliability and effectiveness in the event of a fire emergency. Regular hydrostatic testing is a vital maintenance practice to identify and address any potential issues before they compromise the fire protection system's performance, ultimately enhancing life safety and property protection.
