Yes, the Flame Fighter 4-Outlet Tester is engineered to strictly meet or exceed all NFPA 1962 requirements for the service testing of fire hose, couplings, and appliances. It utilizes a robust positive displacement pump to generate precise hydrostatic pressure up to 500 PSI, ensuring a safe, non-pulsating testing environment that protects the integrity of the hose jacket. The unit features a liquid-filled gauge for accurate pressure monitoring during the mandatory hold period, providing the verifiable data needed for insurance audits and liability documentation. This allows even smaller agencies to perform "in-house" certification rather than outsourcing to third-party vendors.

While equipped with standard 1.5" NST outlets, this high-performance pump generates sufficient flow to test Large Diameter Hose (LDH) supply lines using simple thread adapters. The manifold is designed to handle the volume required to fill and pressurize multiple 4" or 5" lines effectively, maximizing your department's maintenance throughput. However, operators must ensure that all hoses connected during a single test cycle are rated for the same service test pressure to maintain safety protocols. This versatility makes it a complete solution for verifying everything from forestry line to master stream supply hose.

This unit is designed for easy integration into existing apparatus bays, requiring only a standard 110-volt, 20-amp electrical circuit and a standard garden hose water supply. Unlike larger industrial skids that may require three-phase power or hard plumbing, this "plug-and-play" capability allows for immediate deployment in smaller stations, substations, or industrial plants. The compact, vertical cart design minimizes the operational footprint, making it easy to maneuver between bays or store in a closet when not in service. It effectively brings commercial-grade testing capabilities to facilities with limited infrastructure.

Each of the four outlets is controlled by an independent stainless steel ball valve, giving the operator granular control over every line in the test array. In the event of a hose failure or coupling leak, that specific line can be safely isolated and drained without depressurizing the entire system or aborting the test for the passing hoses. This feature, combined with dedicated air bleed valves, prevents dangerous water hammer and ensures operator safety during catastrophic hose bursts. It allows for a controlled, systematic testing process that protects personnel from the kinetic energy of failed equipment.

This specific model is the ideal capital expenditure for departments that already possess a commercial hose washer or have limited bay floor space. By decoupling the washing function, you invest strictly in a high-grade hydrostatic pump system without paying for redundant cleaning hardware that you may not need. It offers a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for volunteer departments or industrial brigades that need professional certification capabilities on a streamlined budget. The simplified design also means fewer moving parts and reduced long-term maintenance compared to complex dual-purpose machines.
