FIRE TERMINAL AND METHOD OF SECURING A FIRE FIGHTER.

摘要

The invention relates to a fire hydrant (10 ') comprising a hollow body (12'), a main shutter (28) and an operating device (24, 26) for opening or closing the main shutter (28) from the outside. Typically, the fire hydrant (10 ') further comprises a free shutter (40) placed in the hollow body (12') and being able to automatically switch to an open position when the pressure water in the hollow body (12 ') is larger upstream than downstream of the free valve (40) and secondly in a closed position when the pressure of the water in the hollow body (12 ') is greater downstream than upstream of the free shutter (40) or when the flow of water ceases, and emergency opening means (60) allowing, by external activation to force the passage of the free shutter into its open position.
