The RICE Hydro FH2-H Fire Hose Tester is a gas-powered hydrostatic test pump engineered to safely and efficiently pressure test fire hose up to 6" in diameter. Delivering 3.5 GPM at pressures up to 1,000 PSI, this rugged tester combines dependable performance, precise pressure control, and durable construction for fire departments, hose service providers, and maintenance facilities.
Powered by a reliable 196 cc, 6.5 HP Honda® four-cycle engine with Oil Alert®, the FH2-H utilizes a triplex ceramic plunger pump with an internal oil bath to provide smooth operation, extended service life, and increased stability. The heavy-duty manifold features four independently controlled stainless steel ball valves with NST couplings, allowing multiple hose sections to be tested simultaneously while maintaining precise control.
Exclusive to RICE Hydro, the innovative No Wild Lines system utilizes a strategically placed inlet ball valve that allows hoses to be filled with high-volume, low-pressure water before switching to low-volume, high-pressure testing. This unique design helps eliminate the conditions that can cause dangerous hose movement during testing, providing safer operation and more consistent results. Encased within a welded heavy-gauge steel roll cage and equipped with durable 4" casters, the FH2-H is built for years of dependable service. Custom-built configurations are also available to meet specialized hose testing requirements.
