About this file
This document appears to be Exhibit A: Pump Capability Requirements Test Procedures, which outlines the test procedures for determining the flow rate and pressure capabilities of water pump equipment for federal contracts. The key details are:
The exhibit details a 5-step test procedure to measure a pump's capability to produce a desired flow rate (in gallons per minute) at a specific pressure range, based on the pump type (Type 3 or Type 6 engine). Pumps that meet the "Acceptable", "Good", or "Excellent" pressure ranges are deemed to have passed the capability test. This information is relevant to the federal contract opportunity for Klamath River Basin WCS and Rx Fire Engines, which seeks water handling equipment such as engines and tactical water tenders for prescribed fire implementation. The contract is being issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service.

Exhibit A: Pump Capability Requirements
Test Procedures per NWCG PMS 447-1 Water Handling Equipment Guide:
1. Select desired orifice diameter and attach to proper size in-line tee.
2. Attach the in-line tee to a discharge or pump outlet.
3. Start pump, open desired discharge or pump outlet valve, increase pump throttle to maximum.
4. If the desired pressure is reached, the pump is producing the desired flow rate (gpm) shown in the table, at the required pressure.
5. If desired pressure is not reached, the pump does not pass.
Type 3 engines
250 to 312 psi is a rating of “Acceptable”
313 to 374 psi is a rating of “Good”
375 psi or more is a rating of “Excellent”
Type 6 engines
100 psi to 124 psi is a rating of “Acceptable”
125 psi to 149 psi is a rating of “Good”
150 psi or more is a rating of “Excellent”
