The FGHC fire pumps are used in fire-fighting applications for supplying water to fire hose reels, fire hydrants or sprinkler systems in areas which are prone to the hazards of fire.
The typical applications are as follow:
• Commercial complexes and high rise buildings
• Petrochemical industries and Gas plants
• Oil and Gas on-shore &off-shore platforms
• Oil terminals
• Airports and ports
• Jetties
• Marine applications
• Power stations and transformer stations
• Chemical industries
• Manufacturing plants
• Fire-work industries
• Warehouses/godowns.
