⩥ Withdraw. Answer: Means grab the equipment and exit the structure
to reform strategy. Abandon is a term used for emergency exit whereas
withdraw is usually a change in strategy causing the exit.
⩥ -Wye. Answer: is an appliance that give the ability to connect 2 1 ¾
hoses to a 2 1/2. It is commonly used for the drop the wye evolution to
have hose reach an upper floor without having to lay hose all the way up
the stairs and along the building. It is also can be used for the valve to
turn flow on or off.
⩥ -Adapter hose. Answer: is used to connect the same size hose that
have mismatched threading or lack of thread. This encompasses double
male or double female fittings as well as threaded to storz.
⩥ -Siamese valve. Answer: have 2 inlets and one output. We mostly
carry a Siamese with two 1 ¾ to combine into a 2 ½ output. These can
help overcome friction loss when LDH is not available or practical.
⩥ -Gate valve. Answer: controls flow between sections of hose or on a
hydrant (2 ½ connection) . It is used on hydrants to allow for another
connection to be made without having to shut down the hydrant. It can
also be used to variably reduce flow.
, ⩥ -Appliance. Answer: Any piece of hardware used in conjunction with
fire hose to control the flow or change the pathway is an ________.
Some frequently used appliances include valves, fittings, and intake
strainers.
⩥ -Clapper valve. Answer: are one way valves used to prevent backflow.
These are common in appliances with multiple intakes (Siamese).
⩥ -Reducer. Answer: connects a smaller hose to a larger hose. This is
useful in cases where you need higher pressure farther from the pump.
By dropping the width of the hose it in turn adds pressure to the water
flow.
⩥ -Ball valve. Answer: can quickly open and close while still
minimizing friction loss when in the open position.
⩥ Backdraft. Answer: Heat and product of combustion accumulated
inside a compartment depleting availability oxygen, then oxygen is
reintroduced into the compartment causing rapid combustion.
⩥ Flashover. Answer: rapid transition from the growth stage to the fully
developed stage
