Fire Hose, Landing Valve, & Accessories (Firex)
A fire hydrant or standpipe is only as good as the equipment connected to it. HS Ahmed Ally supplies the Firex range of fire hoses, landing valves, nozzles, and hose racks that complete a hydrant or standpipe installation — the components firefighters and trained personnel actually connect, aim, and operate at the point of a fire.
These accessories are designed to work together: a landing valve controls the flow from the riser, a fire hose carries the water to the fire, and a nozzle gives the operator control over the spray or jet pattern. For a wider look at how these parts fit into a complete system, see our guide to fire hydrant systems: pillar hydrants, standpipes & how they work.
The Range
Fire Hoses
- Fire Hose – Haishen: a general-purpose discharge hose for connecting to a hydrant, standpipe, or fire engine.
- Fire Hose – Aquaplus: a single-jacket hose woven from 100% polyester with a natural rubber lining, built for good resistance to ageing and abrasion in everyday use.
Landing Valves
Landing valves sit at the hydrant or standpipe outlet and control the flow to the hose. HS Ahmed Ally stocks three options to match different project specifications:
- Landing Valve (Firex) – LPCB: oblique-type valve with a flanged inlet, built to BS 5041 Part 1, rated to 15 bar, LPCB certified.
- Landing Valve (Firex) – Standard: the same oblique, flanged-inlet design built to BS 5041 Part 1 and rated to 15 bar, without LPCB certification — a cost-effective option where third-party certification isn’t specified.
- Landing Valve (JY): a 65mm Gunmetal, field-adjustable pressure-regulating valve rated to 12 bar. It lets installers set a consistent outlet pressure on site, which keeps hose pressure steady for the operator regardless of where the valve sits in a high-rise or offshore system. UL and FM certified.
Nozzle
- Nozzle – Firex: a multipurpose ball-valve branch pipe available in aluminium or aluminium/plastic. A single lever switches between spray, jet, and shut-off, giving the operator full control over water flow. BSI certified.
Hose Rack
- Pin Rack: holds the hose on movable pins for fast deployment, with an automatic release mechanism that starts water flow as soon as the hose and nozzle are lifted off. Available in 65mm and 40mm sizes to comply with NFPA 14 requirements for Class I, II, and III standpipe systems. Built for interior use and designed so one person can operate it alone.
Choosing the Right Landing Valve
If your project specification calls for LPCB certification, choose the Landing (Firex) – LPCB. If certification isn’t a requirement, the Standard version offers the same build at a lower cost. If the installation needs a consistent, field-set outlet pressure — common in high-rise buildings or offshore platforms where pressure varies by floor or location — the Landing Valve (JY) is the better fit.
Complete Your Hydrant or Standpipe System
A hydrant or standpipe is only ready to use once it’s fitted with the right hose, valve, and nozzle. Whether you’re outfitting a new installation or replacing worn-out equipment on an existing one, HS Ahmed Ally can match the right combination to your project’s pressure rating and certification requirements.
