Nozzle & Hose Evaluations and

Flow Testing

It is critical for fire departments to select the correct hose and nozzle combination. These are two items which cannot be randomly selected off the shelf. These two pieces of firefighting equipment are dependent on several factors. It is important to identify your department’s target flow and build an attack package which fits your district demographics.

During this process, ROGUE TRAINING CONSULTING can help conduct nozzle and hose evaluations to ensure the organization is able to determine their target flow and match that with the nozzle and hose to fit their needs.

Flow Testing is an important task to ensure the organization is correctly pumping their apparatus at the correct pressure to deliver the appropriate amount of water volume to the fire. ROGUE TRAINING can assist the organization to determining the correct flows for their apparatus based on friction loss of the hose and the apparatus and to develop flow charts for the organization to keep with the apparatus for a resource for their engineers.
