Abstract
Recently, the demand for high-pressure and high-flow truck-mounted pumps has been increasing due to the frequent occurrence of fires in high-rise buildings. The Korean Fire Equipment Standards, which were specified by the National Fire Agency in January 2018, stipulate the performance test of high-pressure and high-flow fire pumps. In this paper, the relevance of the fire pump standard in Korean Fire Equipment Standards was evaluated by comparison and review the technical standards of domestic KFI certification, NFPA1901 in the United States and EN1028 in Europe based on the performance test of currently used truck-mounted fire pumps. Furthermore, the necessity of establishing performance test facilities for fire pumps was discussed based on the difference between the technical fire pump standards of National Fire Agency and current KFI certification to introduce accurate and safe high-pressure, high-flow fire pumps in the future.
