QuoteMRPH: IF ANYONE IS AVAILABLE TO TAKE M24P TO WILLUNGA TOMORROW MORNING COULD YOU PLEASE CALL THE STATION NOW - FOR INFO IT WILL BE UNAVAILABLE FOR TWO DAYS - LT1 - MAWSON BASE CFS Morphett Vale Info

Interesting, whats going on Matt? this must be a bit of a risk not having your pumper?? do you have a replacement or just running with your 24 for a few days?

Well the risk is minimal as 24P isn't really a pumper anyway, unless you class pumping out 1650lpm a pumper (I know the specs say 1900lpm but some independent testing with some pretty schmick gear confirmed our own numbers).

Also CFS don't have any spare pumpers anyway so the best we can get is a 24, if our appliance isn't going to be back this week we will push for a spare but really there is not a lot you can do.

Matt, in the past CFS have been able to get a spare MFS pumper so you guys should be able to get one.....As there are a number of MFS spare's around.....

Yeah in the past they have, but not in a sensative area like that, others have recently tried.

Actually, he's from Bradbury ;)

I believe Oakbank Balhannah don't have atmospheric monitoring other than a PID - making Burnside the closest most appropriate resource... :)

I believe Stirling would already have this at the job with there pumper?

You believe correct! Although apparently you can't use it unless you have done a course the CFS no longer offers - because you need a course to understand what the alarm and flashing red lights mean! ;)

Does this mean that Pt Augusta have an automated system now so firies don't have to go in every night and trip the alarm tests button??

Are you talking about Monitor Hazardous Atmosphere course cause theres one in July - Aug sometime. If your just looking to detect something i agree you shouldnt have to do the course, but if your using it in confined space sense you need to be able to intepret what the detector is reading.
