0015500 Pump House, Side Control, 54" <br /> <br />PUMP COMPARTMENT <br />The pump compartment will be separate from the hose body and compartments so that each may <br />flex independently of the other. It will be a fabricated assembly of steel tubing, angles and <br />channels which supports both the fire pump and the side running boards. <br />The pump compartment will be mounted on the chassis frame rails with rubber biscuits in a four <br />point pattern to allow for chassis frame twist. <br />The pump compartment, pump, plumbing and gauge panels will be removable from the chassis in <br />a single assembly. <br />PUMP MOUNTING <br />The pump will be mounted to a substructure which will be mounted to the chassis frame rail using <br />rubber isolators. The mounting will allow the chassis frame rails to flex independently without <br />damage to the fire pump. <br />PUMP CONTROL PANELS (Side Control) <br />All pump controls and gauges will be located at the left side of the apparatus and properly <br />marked. <br />The control panels will be 54.00" wide. <br />Polished stainless steel trim collars will be installed around all inlets and outlets. <br />All push/pull valve controls will have 1/4 turn locking control rods with polished chrome plated zinc <br />tee handles. Guides for the push/pull control rods will be chrome plated zinc castings securely <br />mounted to the pump panel. Push/pull valve controls will be capable of locking in any position. <br />The control rods will pull straight out of the panel and will be equipped with universal joints to <br />eliminate binding. <br />The identification tag for each valve control will be recessed in the face of the tee handle. <br />All discharge outlets will have color coded identification tags, with each discharge having its own <br />unique color. Color coding will include the labeling of the outlet and the drain for each <br />corresponding discharge. <br />All line pressure gauges will be mounted in individual chrome plated castings with the <br />identification tag recessed in the casting below the gauge. All remaining identification tags will be <br />mounted on the pump panel in chrome plated bezels. Mounting of the castings and identification <br />bezels will be done with a threaded peg cast on the back side of the bezel or screws. <br />screws. <br />0037731 Pump House Structure, Raised, <br />Included with Ladder Storage <br /> <br />0662019 SP Scuffplate, Cargo Compt, Top <br />Flange, Capped, Alum 4-way <br /> <br />SCUFFPLATE <br />The top flange of the pump house cargo compartment will be covered with bright aluminum <br />treadplate. The scuffplate will cap the top of the side sheet flanges. <br />0004460 Pump, Waterous, CMU, 1500 GPM, <br />Two Stage <br />PUMP <br />Pump will be a Waterous CMU 1500 gpm two (2) stage midship mounted centrifugal type. <br />Pump will be the class "A" type. <br />Pump will deliver the percentage of rated discharge at pressures indicated below: <br />- 100% of rated capacity at 150 psi net pump pressure. <br />- 70% of rated capacity at 200 psi net pump pressure. <br />- 50% of rated capacity at 250 psi net pump pressure. <br />Pump body will be close-grained gray iron, bronze fitted, and horizontally split in two (2) sections <br />for easy removal of the entire impeller shaft assembly (including wear rings). <br />Pump will be designed for complete servicing from the bottom of the truck, without disturbing the <br />pump setting or apparatus piping. <br />Pump case halves will be bolted together on a single horizontal face to minimize a chance of <br />leakage and facilitate ease of reassembly. No end flanges will be used. <br />Discharge manifold of the pump will be cast as an integral part of the pump body assembly and <br />will provide a minimum of three (3) 3.50" openings for flexibility in providing various discharge <br />outlets for maximum efficiency. <br />The three (3) 3.50" openings will be located as follows: one (1) outlet to the right of the pump, one <br />(1) outlet to the left of the pump, and one (1) outlet directly on top of the discharge manifold. <br />Impeller shaft will be stainless steel, accurately ground to size. It will be supported at each end by <br />sealed, anti-friction ball bearings for rigid precise support. Impeller will have flame plated hubs <br />assuring maximum pump life and efficiency despite any presence of abrasive matter in the water <br />supply. <br />Bearings will be protected from water and sediment by suitable stuffing boxes, flinger rings, and <br />oil seals. No special or sleeve type bearings will be used. <br />0004481 Seal, Grafoil, Waterous <br /> <br />PUMP PACKING <br />Stuffing boxes will be of the conventional two (2) piece, split-gland type, to permit adjustment or <br />replacement of Grafoil packing without disturbing the pump. Water will be fed into stuffing box <br />lantern rings for proper lubrication and cooling when the pump is operating. <br />Lantern rings will be located at the inner ends of the stuffing boxes, to avoid having to remove <br />them when replacing pump packing. <br />Wear rings will be bronze and easily replaceable to restore original pump efficiency and eliminate <br />the need to replace the entire pump casing due to wear. <br />45717Bid #:
