1.8. 4 The pressure in the hydrant pipe work shall be kept constant at 6 Kg/cm2. In the event of fire when any of the hydrant valve in the network is opened, the resultant fall in header pressure shall start the AC motor driven fire pump through pressure switches automatically.
Take a static pressure reading. Measure the inside diameter of the outlet nozzle or hydrant outlet where flow occurs. A hydrant's inside diameter is usually 4\u201d. Field personnel should slowly open each fire hydrant, one at a time, to avoid pressure surges.
Check for any obstructions that may interfere with the operations of the hydrant. Look for broken or leaking nozzles, gaskets, or valves. Check the height and overall appearance of the hydrant body. Check water flow using pressure gauge.
Fire hydrants are flow-tested at a residual pressure of 20 psi; therefore, firefighters should understand the typical flow rates of fire hydrants at that pressure.

Property owners and managers often ask 'How often should a fire hydrant be tested and why?
put the end of the swab into the tube so it's in the liquid and swirl the swab around as directed in the test kit instructions, then close the lid. squeeze the liquid from the tube onto the test strip. check the waiting time in the instructions that came with your test kit.
NFPA 291 requires that fire hydrant flow tests be performed every 5 years and fire hydrant inspections be performed annually.
What does the color of a fire hydrant say about its capacity? Per NFPA 291, the body of all public fire hydrants should be chrome yellow, unless another color has already been adopted as a standard for the community.
Fire hydrants are flow-tested at a residual pressure of 20 psi; therefore, firefighters should understand the typical flow rates of fire hydrants at that pressure.
