Description
Hale Sensing Valve TPM
The Hale Sensing Valve TPM, or Tank Pressure Management System, ensures effective water pressure regulation in fire trucks during firefighting operations. This system helps maintain proper pressure for water delivery to the fire while preventing the tank from over-pressurizing. Its reliable design protects critical equipment and supports the safety and efficiency of firefighters.
Key Components of the Hale Sensing Valve TPM System
- Sensing Valve
Positioned on top of the water tank, the sensing valve monitors water pressure within the tank. When pressure reaches a specific level, the sensing valve activates to manage the flow of water. - Relief Valve
Located on the pump, the relief valve releases excess pressure from the pump and tank. This prevents over-pressurization and protects the integrity of the tank and other connected components. - Control Valve
Also positioned on the pump, the control valve adjusts water pressure delivered to the fire. This functionality gives firefighters precise control over water flow based on the demands of the situation.
How It Works
The system connects the sensing, relief, and control valves with a network of hoses and pipes. When water pressure in the tank exceeds safe levels, the sensing valve directs water to the relief valve. The relief valve releases the excess pressure, safeguarding the system. Firefighters can use the control valve to regulate the flow and pressure of water reaching the fire, ensuring optimal performance during critical moments.
