Stand Post Hydrants
& Stand Post
Water Monitors

A pumper connection is an additional 100mm or 150mm Male Round Thread (MRT) outlet port on the stand post body that allows a fire tender (fire engine pump) to connect directly to the firewater ring main — either to draw water from the main or to boost pressure into it.

• Required by OISD, NFPA, and TAC guidelines at strategic ring main intervals in refineries, petrochemical plants, and large industrial sites
• Typically specified at every 3rd–4th hydrant post on industrial ring mains, or at main gate access points for fire tender entry routes
• Models with pumper: DHSPP-P-CS-100 (100mm MRT) and QHSPP-P-CS-150 (100mm or 150mm MRT)
• A blank cap (CS or rubber) is supplied fitted on the pumper port when not in use

The choice depends primarily on the site's corrosion environment:

• Stainless Steel 316: Specify for coastal installations (within 5–10 km of sea), marine terminals, offshore platforms, LNG receiving terminals, and any site where chloride-laden atmosphere or saltwater washdown is expected. SS 316 offers significantly superior pitting and crevice corrosion resistance.
• Gun Metal: Standard specification for inland refineries, power plants, industrial estates, chemical plants, and general commercial projects. Gun metal offers excellent pressure and wear resistance at lower cost than SS 316.

For aggressive chemical process environments involving acids, alkalis, or H₂S — contact our technical team for special alloy or fully stainless body options.

Yes — all heights shown in datasheets are approximate standard dimensions. Custom heights are available on every model to suit site-specific requirements:

• Deep underground pipe connections requiring taller stand post risers
• Raised platform or plinth mounting where access clearance is needed below the valve
• Flood-prone areas requiring elevated hydrant outlets above anticipated flood levels
• Heights up to 2000mm typically available without additional lead time
• Heights above 2000mm require structural support design — consult at order stage

Specify required height from finished ground level to valve centreline at the time of order. No additional charge for standard height variations.

Standard supply is ANSI B16.5 150# Raised Face flanges on all inlet and outlet connections. The following alternatives are available on request for export projects:

• BS 10 Table E — common in UK, Africa, and GCC legacy projects
• PN16 (DIN / EN) — European standard projects
• IS 1538 — Indian standard projects where specified
• Flat Face (FF) instead of Raised Face (RF) — when mating with GRP or Cast Iron flanges

Flange standard must be confirmed at order stage — it cannot be changed post-manufacture. Mismatch between RF and FF flanges in service is a safety risk. Always confirm the mating flange standard on the firewater main before ordering.

A stand post water monitor is a single integrated assembly that combines a hydrant stand post body (with hydrant valve outlets for hose connections) and a high-capacity water monitor nozzle mounted on the same post — fed from one common inlet flange on the firewater main.

• Advantage over standalone monitor: One penetration point on the ring main serves both hose reel / hose line hydrant valves AND the high-capacity solid jet monitor simultaneously — reducing excavation, fittings, and installation cost
• Monitor throw: Solid jet nozzle provides maximum throw distance for tank fire suppression, bund protection, and exposure cooling
• All three Kinde Fire monitor models also have 2 × 80NB hydrant valve outlets so hose teams and the monitor can operate simultaneously from the same post

• SMH-1750 (DOSPM-1750-WM-SM): 1750 LPM monitor, 80NB monitor outlet, SS 316 hydrant valves. Choose for marine/coastal/offshore — maximum corrosion resistance. Working pressure 10.5 kg/cm².
• GMH-1750 (DOSPM-1750-WM-GM): 1750 LPM monitor, 150NB monitor outlet (larger bore for longer throw), Gun Metal hydrant valves. Threaded connection option available. Best for inland industrial and retrofit projects. Working pressure 7–14 kg/cm².
• GMH-2580 (DOSPM-2580-WM-GM): 2580 LPM monitor — highest flow in the range — 100NB monitor outlet, Gun Metal valves. Specified for oil terminals, tank farm perimeter posts, and large chemical plant fire stations where maximum flow rate is the design requirement.

Yes — all three monitor stand post models are designed for simultaneous operation of the monitor and the hydrant valves, subject to the firewater ring main having sufficient supply pressure and flow capacity.

The 150NB inlet on all monitor models is sized to supply both the monitor outlet and the two 80NB hydrant valve outlets concurrently. However, simultaneous full-flow operation of all outlets should be verified against the hydraulic design of the ring main — the monitor at 2580 LPM plus two hydrant valves at 900 LPM each = 4380 LPM total from one post, which requires a minimum ring main capable of sustaining this demand at the required residual pressure.

• Minimum order: No formal MOQ — single units accepted for replacement or maintenance orders. Pricing is more competitive from 5 units upward.
• Standard lead time: 7–14 working days for standard models in standard heights from stock pipe. Custom heights or non-standard flanges: 14–21 working days.
• Bulk / project orders (25+ units): Lead time confirmed at order stage based on current production schedule. Project scheduling with milestone deliveries available.
• Export orders: Allow additional 5–7 days for documentation (MTC, test certs, country of origin, packing list) and shipping coordination.

Every stand post assembly ships with a complete documentation package at no additional charge:

• Material Test Certificate (MTC) for pipe body and flanges
• Hydrostatic Pressure Test Report — test pressure, duration, and pass result
• Dimensional Inspection Report — as per internal drawing
• Packing List with item description, quantity, and gross/net weight
• Country of Origin Certificate (for export)
• Performance Test Report (monitor models only) — flow at rated pressure

Third-party inspection (TPI) by TPIA (RITES, Bureau Veritas, TÜV, SGS, Lloyds) available on request at buyer's cost. Allow additional 7–10 days for TPI-cleared supply.

• IS:5290 — Kinde Fire stand post hydrants are manufactured in reference to IS:5290 (Specification for Landing Valves) and IS:12820 for hydrant valve dimensions
• OISD-STD-116 — Compliant hydrant network equipment for oil industry fire protection systems
• NFPA 14 / NFPA 24 — Outlet and flange dimensions supplied to ANSI B16.5 150# for NFPA-specified projects; confirm valve outlet connection type at order stage
• TAC / IBR — MTC and hydro test documentation supplied as standard to meet TAC insurance and IBR project requirements
