Dry Type Pillar Fire Hydrants

• SUNWIND Fire Hydrants are designed to comply with ANSI/AWWA C502.

• Dry barrel design eliminates damage to the hydrant caused by freezing of the upper part.

• SUNWIND Fire Hydrants are designed for high performance and easy to install, maintain and repair.

• Excellent and proven flow characteristics.

• 2 x 2½” NH thread connectors for soft hose connection.

• 1 x 4½” NH thread pumper connection for fire trucks.

• 6” inlet connection complying to mechanical joint ANSI/AWWA C111/A21.11 or flange connection ASME B16.5 Class 150.

• Operation threads are corrosion protected and for easy operation.

• SUNWIND fire hydrants are high pressure rated to 250 psi compatible with today’s trends.

• Internal epoxy paint system gives high corrosion protection to hydrants.

• Advanced safety couplings and flange design reduces traffic damage to hydrant.

• Main valve is easily removed from either the bonnet flange or ground line flange.

Design Features

• Body Material: Ductile Iron.

• Nominal Pressure 250 psi., Test Pressure: 500 psi.

• O-ring sealed flanges at the bonnet ground line and shoe simplify maintenance by eliminating gasket adhesion at these points, making disassembly easier. The O-rings are easier than flat gaskets to position during reassembly, and provide superior pressure handling.

• Hold-down nut – features integral weather seal. Prevents unauthorized removal of hold-down nut or operating nut. Resilient wiper seal prevents water entry and protects from freezing; material resistant to sunlight deterioration. O-ring provides second level seal.

• Safety flange – breaks cleanly to help prevent barrel damage, but strong enough to withstand normal handling. Allows economical repair, adding of extension section, rotation or changing of upper barrel without excavation.

• Full flow openings – large, smooth radius hose and pumper openings reduce friction loss.
