Applications of Hose Reel Drum & Hose Pipe

A hose reel drum is a cylindrical spindle made up of either metal, fibreglass, or plastic and is used to store hose pipe. Depending on where the hose reel drum is being installed (garden or building or industry), hose reels drums are available in various sizes. A hosepipe is a flexible tube designed to carry water from one place to another. Both hose reel drum & hose pipe are necessary for every building. 

A fire hose reel is designed to be used as a quick-response method for fighting fires at the early stages. It is usually the first piece of attack by anyone in the building or the general public. 

Hose reels are ideal for class A fires (paper, textiles, wood, plastics, and rubber). It should not be used in case of electrical fires. 

Hose Reel Drum Usage

Hose reel drums are used to keep the hose pipe. It can either be fixed permanently on a wall (i.e., wall-mounted) or can be portable (attached to a truck). Since they are connected to the main water supply, they provide a virtually unlimited amount of water 24/7, 365 days a year. 

Hose Pipe Usage

Hosepipe (or hoses) are used at various places. Their applications include, 

  • Garden hose is used to water plants in the garden or lawn. 
  • A tough hose is used to water crops in agriculture. 
  • Air hoses are used to carry air from air tanks or a surface compressor in underwater diving. 
  • Metal or plastic hoses are used to move water around a building. 
  • Automotive hoses are used in automobiles to move fluids around for use in hydraulics, lubrication, and cooling. 
  • Hose pipes are used in the oil industry to move liquids under high pressures. 

Apart from these applications, hose reel drum and hose pipes are majorly used to extinguish a fire in buildings, factories, and other places. They are mandatory in every indoor building as they are the first piece of attack for fire.

How Fire Sprinkler System Work?

Fire is an ultimate nightmare for those who run a store or warehouse. Just imagine your building is stocked with furniture and other flammable items and a fire breaks out at night when no one is around. No need to worry we are here with a fire- fighting system which can react the moment trouble strikes. It has a sounding alarm and an automated sprinkler system to put out a fire as quickly as possible. Fire sprinklers are not for business use only they are also worth having in homes. This is one of the best fire protection systems which have protected life and property for over 100 years.

A fire sprinkler system seems to be a simple system made up of pipes with sprinkler head that deliver water to a fire. But it is a complex system that is carefully designed, installed and tested. An automatic fire sprinkler system works when high heat triggers the sprinkler system. The air above the sprinkler heats rapidly when a flame ignites. When this hot air reaches a sprinkler’s head, it triggers a chain reaction. The sprinkler is filled with a glycerin-based liquid expands when it comes in contact with the hot air and the sprinkler head activates. A fire sprinkler system is ready to install after the designing process.

Fire system installation process is quite simple and it is done by the pipe fitters at the construction site. There is a need of commercial sprinkler system in commercial buildings as a fire could seriously injure or kill employees or customers, damage property, destroy paper records. A fire sprinkler system makes your business safer. The automatic fire sprinkler system detects the fire and it is far way better than the spray that is used to extinguish the fire.

So if you are also willing to make your business safer than automatic fire sprinkler system is the right choice for you. SKG Pneumatic Inc is the one stop destination for complete range of industrial products. We are one of the leading fire fighting equipment suppliers.

Classifications of Valves According to Functions and Motions

When you are installing a piping system in your building or industry, here is some information provided by SKG Pneumatics that will help you to get the services accordingly. SKG is a one-stop for all types of industrial piping devices with a rugged quality.

Classification of valves according to functions

1. For isolation to the piping system – Gate Valves, Ball Valves, Plug Valve, Butterfly Valve, Diaphragm Valve etc are included.

2. For regulation  Globe valve, Butterfly Valve, Needle Valve, Ball Valve etc are included to provide regulation in the flow of the fluid in the piping system.

3. Safety Relief – Pressure Relief Valves, Vacuum Relief Valves are included.

4. Non Return Swing check valve, lift check valve are included.

Special purpose valves-multi port valve, float valves, foot valves, knife gate valve, knife gate valve are included for special types of works mostly done in a household or small piping system done for any buildings.

Classification of valves according to motion

1. Linear motion valves – These are the valves that have a stem sliding closure part like slat, plate or disc, or diaphragm which raise or lower the closure part by moving the handle or grip to the device. This comes with easy design, easy maintenance, versatility in sizes, pressure classes etc. These valves are slower in operation but are more accurate in shutting or opening the flow. SKG provides you with a series of valves functioning under motion like Gate, Globe, and Diaphragm valves etc

2. Rotary motion valves – Rotary valves include a closure part that rotates in the body and opens or shuts the flow when a lever attached is made to quarter turn. They come with larger pore size, cost-effective but limited in applications with pressure drops. SKG caters you all type of valves that comes with a rotary motion like Ball Valves, Butterfly Valves, and Plug Valves etc.

The SKG Pneumatics is catering the products that are needed by any type of piping system. They are incorporated in 2005 and have various partners that also cater the devices like an Advance valve, Zoloto valves, NVR Valves, Easyflex Valves and New age Fire fighting equipment. In this new age, firefighting equipment includes Flexible drops, RRL Hose, Sprinklers, Branch Pipe, Hose Reel Drum and Hose Pipe etc.  More of it SKG also deals in Rubber Bellows, that are designed to reduce the noise, vibration and absorb any thermal movements.
