PILLAR HYDRANT (WET TYPE)
- NAFFCO
Fire Hydrants are designed to comply with ANSI/AWWA C502.
- Dry
barrel design eliminates damage to the hydrant caused by freezing of the
upper part.
- NAFFCO
Fire Hydrants are designed for high performance and easy to install,
maintain and repair.
- Excellent
and proven flow characteristics.
- 2
x 2½” NH thread connectors for soft hose connection.
- 1
x 4½” NH thread pumper connection for fire trucks.
- 6”
inlet connection complying to mechanical joint ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11 or
flange connection ASME B16.5 Class 150.
- Operation
threads are corrosion protected and for easy operation.
- NAFFCO
fire hydrants are high pressure rated to 250 psi compatible with today’s
trends.
- Internal
epoxy paint system gives high corrosion protection to hydrants.
- Advanced
safety couplings and flange design reduces traffic damage to hydrant.
- Main
valve is easily removed from either the bonnet flange or ground line
flange.
- Body
Material: Ductile Iron.
- Nominal
Pressure 250 psi., Test Pressure: 500 psi.
- O-ring
sealed flanges at the bonnet ground line and shoe simplify maintenance by
eliminating gasket adhesion at these points, making disassembly easier.
The O-rings are easier than flat gaskets to position during reassembly,
and provide superior pressure handling.
- Hold-down
nut - features integral weather seal. Prevents unauthorized removal of
hold-down nut or operating nut. Resilient wiper seal prevents water entry
and protects from freezing; material resistant to sunlight deterioration.
O-ring provides second level seal.
- Safety
flange - breaks cleanly to help prevent barrel damage, but strong enough
to withstand normal handling. Allows economical repair, adding of
extension section, rotation or changing of upper barrel without
excavation.
- Full
flow openings - large, smooth radius hose and pumper openings reduce
friction loss.
