HFRC Test Equipment Sales/Rental

Experience

HFRC’s founder, Stephen Haines, has been conducting flow tests since 1989 when he started out with Factory Mutual Engineering. Since then, he has logged thousands of hours refining the art of flow testing stationary fire pumps, industrial and municipal fire water systems, and mobile fire apparatus. This includes a wealth of experience in managing and conducting extra-high volume flow tests, including:

  • Flow testing fire pumps rated up to 11,000 GPM (150% endpoint rating of 19,810 GPM)
  • A 17,700 GPM flow test on an industrial water system
  • A 19,000 GPM flow test on a municipal water system

As a result, HFRC has continually strived to improve and expand its testing technologies, equipment, and processes. You can learn more about HFRC’s capable and qualified team here.

No Flow Test Too Big

HFRC maintains a large inventory and variety of flow testing equipment with a cumulative rated flow capacity of over 173,000 GPM (UL, FM and/or manufacturer certified ratings). This includes discharge devices, electronic flow measurement devices, and HFRC’s patent pending system for testing high and extra-high volume pumps with minimal liquid consumption and discharge. HFRC is also developing flow testing equipment and systems that minimize the potential for property damage and soil erosion.
