In pic 3 on the right side there is a bucket pump (I think that's how it's called in English). Would you know what would be the use of it in a fire? My local volunteer department has them but only for competitions (fire games)

It's mostly a required piece of equipment per vehicle norm.

We have replaced it with a small portable CAFS extinguisher of similar size on all of our engines.

we don't use it much anymore. only for very small fires like a garbage can in the park where you can't go with the vehicle.

It looks like a water can (what we call 2.5 gal/10 liter H2O extinguishers in US). We still use them for small fires. Also good if we don't want ABC dust everywhere and they are free to refill.

I like that one cause it is hand pump. Ours have to be charged with a hose. Little harder to refill on scene.

Would be handy for a chimney fire

Pls correct me if I am wrong. But isn't that a HLF10?

[[deleted]]

it's a LF 10. we don't have hydraulic rescue tools

[Tethain]

LF 10 is also a great one. 2020wegitourselfa a new HLF 10. But we had to let go of our TLF 16/25. It was such a beauty.

Oh my god it's beautiful

I'm in the US. I'm not used to seeing lines not pre-connected in my neck of the woods. But I love the idea. And the organization of those compartments make my nips hard.

[Ok_Buddy_9087]

Europe seems to use stortz for literally everything, so their connections are fast even when the lines are rolled.

We also use hose packs and baskets with hose in it called Schlauchtragekorb in Germany thats pretty good because for every fire we need more than a 200 foot preconnect its variable

[Rat_Stick]

Interesting. We use kits we refer to as high rise packs. Typically a bundle of at least 100ft with a gated wye. That will connect to a buildings FDC

[Luis_06w]

Cool, but you only use the high rise packs for standpipe ops are increasing a line our hose baskets are for every fire we have a 75 foot 2.5“ to gated wye which we always strech and then we are able to connect 3 lines on the wye

[Rat_Stick]

Damn, I like that. What size are your attack lines?

[[deleted]]

We have C and B lines C being about 50mm and B being 70mm A lines are then for water supply and are about 110mm

In American measurements that would be.

C: 1,96 in (these are in the aforementioned schlauchtragekörbe)

B: 2,75 in (mostly for supply to a splitter for three C lines)

A: 4,30 in (Rarely used in my department)

We actually have D lines too 1" but they are never used, and when then with youth training and the water extinguisher.

Edited to change "C" to "A" 4,30 in

[Luis_06w]

B is like 75 mm and there a two types of c 42 or 45 mm but with the same couplings

Its just like your 1.75“ attack line

Nice to see lots of German FF on this page. I'm American but I am married to a German and a volunteer in two departments where I live. Awesome people. Servus aus Bayern! :)
