Introduction
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.
This document should be used with EN 1846-2 which also deals with some optional specific permanently installed
equipment used by firefighters.
The equipment concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are
indicated in the scope of this document.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that
have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.
This document also deals with the performance requirements which apply to the equipment as defined in the
scope.
1 Scope
1.1 This part of this European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for safety and performance of some
optional specific permanently installed equipment on firefighting and rescue service vehicles, operated by trained
persons, as designated in EN 1846-1 and specified in EN 1846-2.
NOTE Categories and mass classes of the firefighting and rescue service vehicles are given in EN 1846-1.
The permanently installed equipment covered by this Part of this European Standard is given below:
 water installation;
 liquid additive installation;
 monitor;
 equipment gantries;
 demountable systems using a hydraulic hook arm.
This part of this European Standard should be read in conjunction with any national regulations in force for vehicles
using the public roads and with any EU Directives and associated EFTA regulations in force relevant to vehicles
and their equipment.
For the purposes of this European Standard, the normal ambient temperature range is - 15 °C to + 35 °C.
For equipment to be used at temperature outside this temperature range, the particular temperature range should
be specified by the user and the manufacturer should determine by a risk assessment any need for additional
precautions.
1.2 This European Standard does not deal with the following types of fire-fighting or rescue vehicles or
equipment:
 all control systems outside of the cabin related to hook arm system;
 vehicles designed exclusively for carrying personnel;
 vehicles with a gross laden mass not exceeding 3 t;
 boats;
 aircraft;
 railway vehicles;
 ambulances (see EN 1789);
 provisions for removable equipment driven by PTO;
 airport vehicles in the scope of the recommendations of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).
1.3 This part of this European Standard deals with the technical requirements to minimise the hazards listed in
Clause 4 which can arise during operational use, routine checking and maintenance of firefighting and rescue
service vehicles.
It does not cover the hazards generated by:
 non-permanently installed equipment i.e. portable equipment carried on the vehicle;
 use in potentially explosive atmospheres;
 commissioning and decommissioning;
 noise (as permanently installed equipment cannot be operated separately from the vehicle, this hazard is
covered in Part 2);
 electromagnetic compatibility.
Additional measures not dealt with in this European Standard may be necessary for specific use (e.g. fire in natural
environment, flooding, etc.).
1.4 This document is not applicable to the equipment which is manufactured before its date of publication by
CEN.

5.2.2 Water installation
5.2.2.1 General
5.2.2.1.1 All parts of the water installation designed to work at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure
shall withstand the designed maximum working pressure (p ) specific to that part of the installation plus 5,5 bar
a lim
without any permanent deformation or damage.
NOTE Water tank(s) are considered to be subjected to only atmospheric pressure.
Verification
By hydrostatic test. The pump may be excluded from this test.
5.2.2.1.2 The maximum outlet pressure p shall not exceed the limit pressure (p ) as defined in
a a lim
EN 1028-1 or EN 14710-1 at the maximum inlet pressure defined by the manufacturer of the pump.
Verification
By calculation or dynamic test.
5.2.2.1.3 The maximum speed of the installed water pump shall be less than the maximum speed n as defined
in 3.6.3 of EN 1028-1:2002+A1:2008 or 3.6.2 of EN 14710-1:2005+A2:2008.
Verification
By measuring the maximum speed of the pump.
5.2.2.1.4 The deviation of the outlet pressure of the pump shall meet the requirements of Table 6 when
operating at p and Q , as defined in 3.1.1 (see also 5.2.1).

Q to 0,85 Q p to 1,25 p
Pump with Q ≥ 3 000 l/min 1 1 a1 a1
Verification
By measuring the pressure deviations. During the test, manual adjustment of the speed of the pump shall not
be allowed. The variation of flow rate shall be achieved within 2 s ± 0,5 s.
5.2.2.2 Water tank
In addition to compliance with the stability requirements given in EN 1846-2, the design and mounting of the water
tank and the location and the installation of baffles, if necessary, shall prevent any excessive dynamic force that
may cause vehicle instability under anticipated operational conditions.
Verification
By inspection and functional test.
Manufacturers have developed several different methods of designing machines which are stable under the
conditions of intended use, and experience has shown that they can be equally effective. These may be
based upon analytical computer software, physical testing, or designs which have been proven over several
years of use. With the present state of knowledge it is not possible to describe a single standardised method
of design and of verification.
5.2.2.3 Access to supply and delivery connections for water
5.2.2.3.1 The maximum height from the lowest point of the final supply and delivery connection(s) to the
standing surface of the operator shall not exceed 1,5 m at unladen mass (see 3.1 of EN 1846-2:2009+A1:2013).
Hosereel systems shall comply with requirements of 5.3.2.7.
Verification
By visual inspection and measurement.
5.2.2.3.2 The final supply and delivery connection(s) shall be angled downwards at an angle between 10° and
30° from the horizontal when they are higher than 0,5 m from the standing surface of the vehicle.
If it is technically impossible to reach these angles, a device shall be provided to be inserted between the delivery
or supply connection and the related hoses to achieve the required angle. It shall not be possible to connect hoses
without this device.
Verification
By measurement and functional test.
5.2.2.3.3 It shall be possible to relieve any pressure build up between the delivery connection and any blank cap
