At LIFECO, we pride ourselves on our exceptional range of fire hydrants, catering to diverse requirements and environments. Our wet barrel fire hydrants, including models LF-WBHM-115 / LF-WBHM-100 and LF-WBHX-115 / LF-WBHX-100, exemplify this. Manufactured in accordance with the AWWA C503 standard, these hydrants feature a 4.5” Pumper nozzle, two 2.5” Hose nozzles, and a 4” Monitor Flange, with an optional 4″ Pumper Connection.

They can withstand working pressures of 250 PSI and temperatures ranging from -10°C to 82°C. Notably, both the interior and exterior are e-coated and then fusion bonded with epoxy powder for superior corrosion protection.

Equally impressive are our dry barrel fire hydrants, models LF-FM1510A and LF-FM1510B. These come with a 4.5” Pumper nozzle, two 2.5” Hose nozzles, and offer the flexibility of NH Thread or other thread types. With multiple bury lengths and the option to specify mechanical joint or flanged shoe at order, these hydrants are versatile.

They also support a working pressure of 250 PSI and temperatures from -10°C to 82°C, ensuring reliability under various conditions. The internal and external liquid epoxy paint provides excellent corrosion protection. These options signify why we’re so highly regarded as fire hydrant suppliers in the UAE, UK, and Saudi Arabia.

Dry Barrel Fire Hydrants vs Wet Barrel Fire Hydrants

Understanding the differences between dry and wet barrel fire hydrants is crucial for effective fire safety systems, especially in regions like Saudi Arabia where fire hydrant standards may vary. Here are the key distinctions:

Operation Mechanism:

Dry Barrel Fire Hydrants: The water valve is located below the ground, protecting it from freezing temperatures. When the hydrant is not in use, the barrel remains dry.
Wet Barrel Fire Hydrants: Common in warmer climates, these hydrants always have water in the barrel, ready for immediate use.

Design & Structure:

Dry Barrel Fire Hydrants: Designed to prevent freezing by draining water when closed. They are often used in colder areas.
Wet Barrel Fire Hydrants: Feature a simpler design with fewer moving parts, reducing maintenance requirements.

Valve System:

Dry Barrel Fire Hydrants: Have a main valve at the base that controls water flow.
Wet Barrel Fire Hydrants: Equipped with individual valves for each outlet, allowing multiple hoses to be connected and operated independently.

Climate Suitability:

Dry Barrel Fire Hydrants: Ideal for colder climates where underground freezing is a concern.
Wet Barrel Fire Hydrants: More suitable for warmer climates where freezing is not an issue.

Maintenance Needs:

Dry Barrel Fire Hydrants: Require regular maintenance to ensure proper draining and prevent freezing.
Wet Barrel Fire Hydrants: Generally have lower maintenance needs due to their simpler design.

Both types play a vital role in fire protection systems, from firefighting vehicles to sprinkler systems, and form an essential part of urban and industrial fire suppression strategies.
