Regular servicing and periodical inspections

System Check and testing
FIRST offers to arrange examinations/checks of installed firefighting systems on a
regular basis, in order to determine the status of the equipment and to provide
recommendations for repair, replacements or upgrades. FIRST can also carry out
testing of water flow, foam induction rate, checking of the foam concentrate etc.
Service Agreement
Based on an agreed level of involvement, FIRST offers to undertake responsibility of all
periodical inspection and servicing of your firefighting equipment.
In control
We will then inspect and service all fire fighting equipment, and do everything required
for you to be assured that the equipment will work whenever needed. Our testing also
includes analysis of foam liquid and dry powder.

High alert
Further we will immediately alert you, should we determine conditions, which could
cause a future malfunction in any of the firefighting systems.

Periodical inspections
By letting us take responsibility for service and maintenance, your employees are given
enough space to keep their focus in the right places. We are glad to take responsibility
for periodical inspections of high pressure air cylinders like for instance start air bottles
and breathing apparatus for life boats.

Full scale testing of deluge systems

Let us take responsibility for your on-site, full scale testing. This includes necessary
preparations at the site, execution of the test, verification of flow/pressure according to
hydraulic calculations, verification of area coverage (density) to ensure sufficient flow in
all areas, inspection of all objects to have sufficient protection, a check of system
performance with regards to wind-conditions, verify correct flow through all nozzles etc.

The test will be recorded, by use of “clamp on” flow meter(s), pressure transmitters and
data-logger. A detailed test report will be issued.

The FIRST full flow deluge test:

1. Preparation and approval of procedures, check lists, and Safe Job Analysis
2. Evaluation of existing manning plan.
3. Visual inspection of deluge system, distribution network and nozzle location. These
are checked against ISO drawings and hydraulic calculations.
4. Covering of sensitive electrical and instrumentation equipment.
5. Inspection of the function of the existing drainage system
6. Performing of the decided scenario test.
7. Testing of Fire Pumps with reference to valid pump curves.
