BASE LEAK TREE TRAINING PROP
This pipe leak tree is custom manufactured to meet your specific training objectives, community requirements and with a sensitivity to your budget constraints. (See our PROCESS section.)
Selection of pipes/fittings
The manufacturer, in conjunction with the customer requirements, will provide a range of pipes (diameters in PVC and galvanized), fittings, unions, flanges, gaskets as well as couplings. Fire sprinkler heads are typically included in the design.
By combining the sets of interchangeable pipes with pre-set leaks and the leaks that can be created by instructors in individual fittings or in combinations of fittings and pipes, this training prop ensures instructors can create unique training scenarios for each training session. This will provide your teams dynamic lifesaving, training for the lifespan investment of the training prop. Depending on the choices you make on pipes and fittings at the time of manufacture, you should be able to create 125 to 250 unique combinations of leak scenarios. This is unique to our custom manufactured pipe leak tree training prop.
