- This is the first engine start of my new fire pump and cart. the cart is from Water Pumps Direct: BE HPFC-2065HR - 126 GPM (2") Fire Fighting Cart w/ Honda GX Engine. I added 150 feet of 1 1/2" Forestry hose and nozzle so it would reach all the way around my house.
UPDATE: I noticed after posting this video that the engine throttle was only up about 2/3 of the way, I tried it again at full power and got even more water. In fact, the hose pushes back with about 20 pounds of thrust.
Still to much fuel in a trapped area i am no fire fighter myself but i cut back alot and was told i should cut back more don't have 50 percent bush u have
kindly please share with us the model and psi (pressure) ...tq
Can you send to india..
What Honda pump is this? (Model#)
Which model is this?
Youre getting some distance with that but question whats the psi from the pump when run ing at full power ? I have 2 2" transfer pumps that when ran in series get some nasty pressure but i dont have enough output as i want. There 195gpm max i want to run a 200 series big gun but i dont have enough with those
It's a bad idea to run your pump for more than a few moments with no water moving through it. Excessive wear of internal parts will happen.
pup !
Jay & other amateurs. Do your homework before buying and using a pump like this. First off, I cringed when you shut off the nozzle with the pump running. You could have blown the pump seals. Put a PSI relief valve before the hose connection. Some of these pumps will not tolerate any debris except if VERY FINE. If it's a "semi-trash" pump the debris can be a bit larger maybe less than 1/2". If it's a trash pump you won't get near enough PSI.
Debris clogs the vanes in the pump reducing its efficiency. Always research the pump curve. This shows you GPM @ Head. PSI is another function. PSI decreases as the flow GPM increases. In my case my pump is dual purpose.
30 sprinkler heads plus 1.5" fire hose. In case of a fire I can run my perimeter spklrs and 1 or 2 fire hoses. Hope this helps
