Fire Pump Systems

FOR THE PROTECTION OF LIFE AND PROPERTY, A-C FIRE PUMP OFFERS PACKAGED SYSTEMS THAT MEET EVERY FIRE PROTECTION NEEDS.

A-C Fire Pump Systems and Professional Fire Protection...

A Shared Tradition of Excellence
One of the first fire trucks built in the late 1800s was equipped with an A-C Fire Pump. One of the first built fire trucks in the late 1800s was equipped with an A-C fire pump. For over 80 years, A-C Fire Pump Systems has been on the forefront in developing, designing and custom-building a wide range of fire pump systems including prefabricated packages and house units that meet every fire protection need. A-C Fire Pump is not only rich in history, but on the cutting edge of new technology as demonstrated with our contribution to the fire protection systems for launch pads 39A and 39B for NASA at the Kennedy Space Center. A-C Fire To protect the space shuttle launch facilities, NASA installed a fail-safe fire suppression system utilizing A-C Fire pumps. Pump Systems furnished a package of four 12x8x22 9100 series horizontal splitcase pumps driven by huge 1065 horsepower diesel engines including state-of-the-art control systems. Each pump is rated at 3,500 gallons per minute at 250 psi pressure. We will continue to be the leader in the fire protection industry providing both excellent service and superior products for years to come. You can always count on A-C Fire Pump Systems to solve your pumping problems.
