PORTABLE

Easily put into a cart and rolled to the source of the fire. 

Light enough to be carried to less accessible locations.

Operated from a boat for a fast water-borne approach to a fire.

Runs off a 12 Volt car or marine battery or with an optional 110V AC converter

 

FLEXIBLE

Can pump from a body of water (fresh or salt) or from a regular water tap.

When hoses are reversed, it becomes an emergency pump that operates at a rate of more than 5 gallons a minute.

CRUISER’S KIT FOR FIRE FOAM AFLOAT SYSTEM OWNERS

 

FIRE FOAM AFLOAT can also be used as a backup to many of the water systems found on boats.  Often cruising boats have the need for simple methods of repair or modification of their water systems to keep them working until arrival at a port where repairs or components are available. We offer an accessory “Cruisers Kit” with components to facilitate the following:

 

To bypass a defective raw water pump on most gas or diesel engines with heat exchangers.

As a temporary Potable water-system pump.

As a temporary sea-water cooling pump for Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Systems.

As a “Booster Pump.”

For At-Anchor refilling from dinghy or water-taxi delivered water.
