Rotary Vane Pumps
- Used to prime centrifugal pumps. - Rotor is mounted off-center inside the housing. Distance between the rotor and the housing is much greater at the intake than it is at the discharge. - As the rotor turns the vanes are forced against the housing by centrifugal force. - Self adjusting feature makes the rotary vane pump much more efficient at pumping air than a standard rotary pump.
26
Centrifugal Pumps
- Impeller, Vanes, Shroud, Volute, Casing, Eye, Hub, Stripping Edge - Based on the principle that a rapidly revolving disk tends to throw water introduced at its center toward the outer edge of the disk. - Faster disk is turned the farther the water is thrown, or the more velocity the water has.
27
Centrifugal Pumps
- The impeller transmits energy in the form of velocity to the water. - The casing collects the water and confines it in order to convert the velocity to pressure. - The casing directs the water to the discharge of the pump.
28
Centrifugal Pumps
- Impeller generally rotates from 2,000 to 4,000 GPM - Volume capability of the pump is dependent on the size of the eye. - The larger the eye the greater the flow capacity. - The impeller is mounted off-center in the casing. This placement creates a water passage that gradually increases in cross sectional area as it nears the discharge outlet of the pump. This is known as the volute.
29
Centrifugal Pumps
-The gradually increasing size of the water-way reduces the velocity of the water, thus enabling the pressure to build up proportionately.
30
Centrifugal Pumps -3 Main Factors that Influence a Centrifugal Pump's Discharge
1. Amount of water being discharged. 2. Speed at which the impeller is turning 3. Pressure of water when it enters the pump from a pressurized source (hydrant, relay etc.)
31
Centrifugal Pump
- Single Stage | - 2 Stage
32
2nd Stage Centrifugal Pump
- Transfer Valve - Volume = Each of the impellers is capable of delivering its rated pressure while flowing 50 percent of the rated capacity; therefore, the total amount of water the pump can deliver is equal to the sum of each of the stages. - Pressure = Greatly increases the pressure attainable; however, increasing the pressure results in a corresponding reduction in volume - Changeover is often time the term used for switching between volume and pressure.
33
Midship Pumps
- Power is supplied to the pump through the use of a split-shaft gear case (transfer case) located in the drive line between the transmission and the rear axle. - Power can be diverted from the rear axle and transmitted to the fire pump. - With the engine idling and the pump engaged, most speedometers read between 10 to 15 mph, depending on the apparatus.
34
Relief Valves
- An adjustable spring-loaded pilot valve actuates the relief valve to bypass water from the discharge to the intake chamber of the pump. - Although only a small quantity of water is rerouted, the rerouting permits the pump to continue in operation when pressure rises above the working or set pressure.
35
Relief Valves
-Intake pressure relief valves are intended to reduce the possibility of damage to the pump and discharge hoselines caused by water hammer when the valves/nozzles are closed too quickly.
36
Pressure Governor
- Reduces engine speed to reduce pressure - Excessive pressures are generally caused by shutting down one or more operating hoselines. - When excessive pressure builds up, a tube from the discharge side of the pump transmits the resulting pressure rise to a governing device, which then cuts back the throttle.
37
Master Intake Gauge | Compound Gauge
-Measure positive pressure or a vacuum.
38
Master Pump Discharge Pressure Gauge
-Registers the pressure as it leaves the pump, but before it reaches the gauges for each individual discharge line.
39
First Digit Method
Pg. 333
40
Cavitation
- Condition where, in theory, water is being discharged from the pump faster than it is coming in. - The high velocity of water filling these cavities causes a severe shock to the pump. In extreme cases or over prolonged usage, this shock results in damage to the pump.
41
Indicators of cavitation
- Hose streams will pulsate - Pressure gauge on the pump will fluctuate. - Pump itself will be noisy, sounding rather like gravel is passing through it.
42
FDC -Sprinkler System
-150 PSI
43
Jake Brake
When activated, it opens exhaust valves in the cylinders after the compression cycle, releasing the compressed air trapped in the cylinders, and slowing the vehicle.
44
Air/Compression Brakes
The air compressor draws filtered air from the atmosphere and forces it into high-pressure reservoirs at around 120 psi (830 kPa). Most heavy vehicles have a gauge within the driver's view, indicating the availability of air pressure for safe vehicle operation, often including warning tones or lights. Setting of the parking/emergency brake releases the pressurized air in the lines between the compressed air storage tank and the brakes, thus allowing the spring actuated parking brake to engage. A sudden loss of air pressure would result in full spring brake pressure immediately

52
Advancing Hose Up and Down a Stairway
- Lay the uncharged hose against the outside wall to keep the stairs as clear as possible and avoid sharp bends and kinks in the hose. - Loop to the floor above the fire provides excess hose for advancing into the structure.
53
Advancing Hose from a Standpipe
- Normally stop one floor below the fire floor and connect the attack hose lines to the standpipe. If the standpipe connection is in an enclosed stairway, it is acceptable to connect on the fire floor. - Make sure to take a Reverse Stack and a Gated Wye
54
Vehicle Fires
(Pg. 1040) - Approach Car at a 45 Degree Angle to the Vehicle Side - Approach from upwind and uphill when possible. - Use a combination pattern primarily straight stream. - Potentially have to force entry into the engine compartment or trunk with manual tools (Halligan) - Be aware of fuels, hubcaps, bumpers etc..
55
Chapter 17 (Fire Control)
- Three Priorities; Life Safety, Incident Stabilization, Property Conservation. - Risk/Benefit Analysis
56
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Factors for Fire attack Strategy
- Value - Time - Size
57
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Defensive Strategy
- No life to save - Not enough resources - Property is not salvageable - Danger of structural collapse - Major risk to firefighters - Risk outweighs benefits
58
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Transitional Attack
- Defensive to Offensive (Common) | - Offensive to Defensive
59
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) - Evacuation - Withdraw - Abandon
- Evacuation = For civilians - Withdraw = Firefighters systematically leave, take all stuff with you. - Abandon = Leave all stuff except for tool that could help with egress.
60
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Resource Coordination
-Fire attack during interior operations must be coordinated with forcible entry, search and rescue operations, ventilation, and control of utilities.
61
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Interior Fire Attack, Nozzle Selection
- A fog nozzle is generally the most useful. - A wide fog pattern can be used to protect firefighters from radiant heat as well as cool the hot fire gases. - When it becomes necessary to penetrate the hot gas layer and cool the compartment linings (ceiling or wall) or reach the burning fuel, the nozzle can be adjusted to straight stream.
62
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Solid Stream
-Solid stream will deliver the greatest amount of water over the farthest distance.
63
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Interior Fire Attack
-Interior fire attack crews advancing hoselines must carry tools and equipement needed to open interior doors, check concealed spaces for fire extension, or to make an emergency exit.
64
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Interior Fire Attack
-Before entering the building or the fire area, the firefighter assigned to the nozzle should open the nozzle fully to ensure adequate flow, check the pattern setting, and bleed the air from the hoseline.
65
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Ventilation Controlled
-If the fire is ventilation controlled and the door is opened, a significant increase in heat release rate can quickly occur. Unburned fuel in the form of smoke will escape at the top of the doorway while fresh air will enter at the bottom, providing oxygen for fire development. In this situation cooling the hot gases overhead can reduce the risk of ignition potentially leading to flashover and provide a safer operating environment.
66
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Chocking Doors
Once the door is opened and entry is made, chock the door to prevent it from closing on the hoseline.
67
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Direct Attack Indirect Attack Combination Attack
- Direct Attack = Water is applied directly onto the burning fuels until the fire is extinguished. - Indirect Attack = Attack is made through a window or other opening, directing the stream toward the ceiling to cool the room. Produces large amounts of steam, coordinate with ventilation. (Fog Stream) - Combination Attack = combines cooling the hot gas layer at the ceiling level using an indirect attack with a direct attack on the fuels burning near the floor level.
68
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Cooling Hot Gasses
- Cooling the hot gas layer slows the transfer of heat to other combustibles and reduces the chances of the overhead gases igniting. - To cool the hot gas layer, direct short bursts or pulses of water fog into it.
69
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Standpipe for Fire Attack
- If the standpipe connections are located in unprotected locations, the attack hoseline is connected on the floor below the fire floor and advanced up the nearest stairwell. - If the standpipe connection is in a protected stairway, hoselines may be connected to the fire floor. Extra sections of the attack hoseline may be flaked up the stairway to the first landing above the fire floor so that it will feed more easily into the fire floor as the line is advanced.
70
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Basement Fires
- Some of the most difficult and dangerous structure fires that you may encounter. - Very dangerous in regards to structural collapse. - Interior and exterior enclosed stairwells act as a flow path for smoke, flames, and heated gases, much like a fireplace chimney.
71
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Exposures
Exposure - Structure or separate part of the fireground to which a fire could spread. Exposure Protection - Covering any object in the immediate vicinity of the fire with water or foam.
72
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Interior Exposure Protection
- Generally involves closing doors or other openings between the fire area and the unaffected area and the proper use of tactical ventilation to ensure that smoke movement is limited. - Passive forms of exposure protection, such as fire-rated walls and doors, are also used to prohibit fire and smoke movement.
73
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Shutting off Utilities
- Electricity - Natural Gas - Liquefied Petroleum Gas - Water
74
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) FDC
- One of the first priorities at a fire in a protected structure is to connect the pumper to the fire department connection. - FDCs allow a pumper to supplement the water supply and pressure in a structure's sprinkler or standpipe systems.
75
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Transmission Lines and Equipement
- Firefighters should wait for the fire to burn away from the point of contact before attempting to extinguish it. - Use a dry chemical or carbon dioxide extinguisher to extinguish fires in transformers at ground level.
76
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Suppressing Class D Fires
- Class D fires burn at extremely high temperatures and are reactive to water. - Class D extinguishing agents can be manually shoveled or scooped onto the burning metal or applied using a class D fire extinguishers in sufficient quantity to completely cover the burning metal.
77
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Specialty Vehicle Fires
- Ethanol/Methanol = Use Class B Foam like AFFF | - Hydrogen = Do not extinguish the fire, instead protect the exposures and allow the fuel to burn off.
78
Chapter 17 (Fire Control) Ground Cover Fires
Ground Fire Surface Fire Crown Fire

106
2 in 2 Out
- 1st Team, 2nd Team, and then RIT Team - IC and Driver operator can be 2 in 2 out when it is just the first 2 in. Once more arrive and enter the structure than just the IC and Driver operator can no longer be the 2 out.
107
Standby Team
- They act as the RIT team until a RIT team is established. | - Can perform operations that specifically help the 2 people in.
108
Large Fires with RIT
Ex. Warehouse fire with multiple divisions, each division needs a RIT team.
109
2 Situations in which we can enter without the 2 out rule.
1. Fire in incipient stage | 2. Known rescue (See them, hear them, reliable source) There is no assumption.
110

- Heat is going to be very intense as you advance through it. - Once at the bottom it will be like a normal room and contents fire.
136
Interior Exposures???
Exterior Exposures???
137
Electricity (Flipping Breakers)
-Check to determine if any of the breakers have flipped before we cut the power.
138
Electricity (Line Drops)
- Look for electricity lines that have dropped by the house. - Usually in the Alley side and back of the house. - Don't get a second chance to make this mistake.
139
Gas Utilities
- In line valve - Can use the part of the hydrant wrench. - Difference between natural gas and petroleum gas. - Natural Gas Floats - Petroleum Gas goes to the ground
140

Car Fire Attack
- Park and Approach at a 45 Degree angle. - Rods that shoot out?? - Tires - Laying your hose at the 45 degree angle. - Fluid movement of bleeding off nozzle as approaching vehicle. - Passenger compartment is the most important (life safety) - Fire Break between the engine compartment and the passenger compartment. - Use preconnect on all care fires until I become more experienced. (It never will hurt to have to much water).
145
Dumpster Fire and Wildland Fire
- Digging Down, Straight Stream and dig it deep into the soil. - Flood it and fill it up.
146
Topography (Wildland Fire)
- Fire runs uphill really fast | - Will burn downhill but not as fast.
147
Wildand Ground Cover Terms????

149
Wildland Fires
- Communications = Knowing who to communicate with. - Escape Routes = 2,3 escape routes lead to safety zone. - Safety Zone = Should be safe enough for you to be there without the use of your fire shelter.
150
Pump Potential Problems | If Pump is Leaking Water
- Tank Fill - Drains - Relief Valve
151
Potential Pump Problems
- People taking hose off and not communicating it. - Door shutting on hose (You have the right pressure but they are not getting water). They need to walk their line. - Nozzle Getting Closed on Extending line could be another reason to not get water. -Tank to Pump, Not getting water, Prime Pump, Discharge from a 2 1/2" port
152
Foam Eductors
- Pump at 200 PSI - Only 150ft, lose venturi effect after 150 ft. - Fire streams at 70% - Can put a hose at the discharge port if I need more length. You can then move your eductor farther ahead but still keeping it 150' from the nozzle.
