TODAY’S PATENT – FIRE-FIGHTING CONTROL SYSTEM
The said invention “Fire-Fighting Control System” (US12053656B2) was invented by Jason Cerrano on 10th September 2010. Currently; it stands assigned to Hale Products Inc.
The invention is a control system for fire-fighting pumper trucks that automates liquid flow and pressure adjustments using a programmable logic controller (PLC). It replaces the need for manual operation by engineers, who traditionally rely on verbal commands from firefighters. The system manages valves controlling water from storage tanks, remote sources, and nozzles based on predefined logic and user inputs, improving efficiency and reducing human error. It also supports training simulations by replicating real fire-fighting conditions.
This invention automates control systems in fire-fighting pumper trucks to reduce human error and reliance on manual adjustments by engineers.
