Clutch Stolen, 109 Hydrants Malfunctioning

The rampant of fire cases in the city, apparently is not offset with adequate fire handling facilities. There are only 44 out of 153 hydrants which are still active. While for the rests are broken and the water supply is little. 

The stolen part is clutch on the hydrants' part. Usually if it is sold, the price is quite much

Head of West Jakarta Fire Handling and Rescue Sub-Department, Pardjoko disclosed there are many hydrants or water flow for fire extinguisher which are malfunctioning as most of the equipments were stolen. They were allegedly stolen by scavenger. 

"The stolen part is clutch on the hydrants' part. Usually if it is sold, the price is quite much," said Pardjoko, Wednesday (7/29). 

Dry Hydrants Installed to Hasten Fire Extinguishing Process

He stated, to prevent such theft, his party uses small-sized car named quick response car functioning as water vacuum from river or channel then flowed to hose of fire trucks. 

"We were forced to use the quick response car because besides many hydrants broken, the water which is flowed from PAM is also not flowing," he explained. 

Another way to anticipate fire, especially in densely populated area, he added, is the Environment Fire Security Systems (SKKL) that currently being designed with independent hydrants system. 

"The system will be built in 32 locations," he explained. 

Pardjoko continued, his party will also build container or 45-meter-cubic capacity water tank as water reservoir in each RW, supported by other facilities such as pump with minimal thrust of 500 GPM (Gallon per minute).
