5.2.3 TEMPORARY FIRE PROTECTION
The Booster is able to provide uninterrupted fire protection during times when water mains are inoperable. The Booster, monitor and
nozzle can be installed on riser flanges, manifolds, and hydrant elbows. Hose can be laid for a period of weeks or months with vehicle
access routs maintained using hose bridges when needed. The Booster and monitor can be relocated again and again to coordinate
with re-construction progress of fire main replacement programs, outages, and for protection of temporary fire hazards.
