Correct
30 Correct-when conducting a priming device test and using a pump of less than 1500
GPM, the priming device should be able to create the necessary vacuum_____seconds to lift
water 10 ft through 20 ft of hard suction hose
And no less than 3 seconds and no more than 10 seconds Correct-The three parts of the
pressure control test require you to close the flowing valves one at a time:
10% Correct-The gauge and flow meter test compares flow meter readings with actual
pilot tube readings. The two readings should differ no more than:
NFPA 1901 Correct-The tank to pump flow rate test measures whether the piping between
an apparatus water tank and fire pump meets the minimum flow standard of:
1. keeps everyone on the team informed about equipment conditions
2. helps determine whether equipment should be repaired / replaced. Correct-identify two
most important reasons for maintaining good MWS apparatus records.

Correct
10 in and 5 minutes Correct-when performing a vacuum service test, once the engine is
turned on, the column of mercury should fall no more than:
1. tachometer
2. smooth bore tip
3. external test gauges Correct-identify three pieces of equipment needed to conduct a
service testing on an MWS apparatus equipped with a fire pump.
1. apparatus unit identification number
2. inspected by column
3. remarks column Correct-identify three critical items that should be included on an MWS
apparatus daily inspection checklist
1. an MWS apparatus equipped with fire pump must have a tank to pump line at least 2 in in
diameter and capable of supplying the pump with 500 GPM unit at least 80% of water in the
tank is emptied
2. NMWS apparatus must be equipped with at least one external fuel connection connected
into the tank that allows the tank to be filled at a minimum rate of 1000 GPM
3. The external fuel connection should be equipped with a valve strainer and 30° elbow
