Prior to 1977 the NZ Fire Service identified failures with instantaneous couplings. This resulted in the standard NZFS 4505: Specification for Firefighting Waterway Equipment to be updated thickening the walls of the couplings. However, recent audit findings indicate a number of these non-compliant couplings have found their way back into service.
The Thin Walled Couplings Replacement Project aims to provide certainty that all thin-walled couplings not compliant with NZFS 4505:2007 are removed from service, and rendered inoperable, on both urban and rural fire appliances owned and operated by Fire and Emergency NZ. The project will also ensure through national coordination, that couplings are replaced, and associated waterway equipment is also replaced or repaired, so that there is no loss in operational capability.
