When a disaster occurs Emergency Response Teams are reliant on available sources of water from conventional hydrant systems, which during a disaster are typically compromised. They also use stationary pumping systems which may not be located within the vicinity of the fire or conventional portable pumps which are very inefficient in delivering volumes of water. In this invention a rapid deployment jet drive type centrifugal pump is floated on a body of liquid (i.e. water) by means of a hull to provide an emergency and/or alternate source of water to fight fires. The power source for the pump is either attached to the pump and floated in the same hull or remotely located providing power to the pump by means of an umbilical. The jet drive type centrifugal pump is utilized solely for pumping liquids.

Lorsqu'un sinistre survient, les équipes d'intervention d'urgence dépendent des sources d'eau disponibles des réseaux de distribution d'eau classiques qui sont habituellement affaiblies dans ces circonstances. Les équipes utilisent également des systèmes de pompage stationnaires qui peuvent ne pas être situés près du lieu de l'incendie, ou des pompes portatives classiques qui sont très inefficaces pour acheminer de grandes quantités d'eau. Selon cette invention, une pompe centrifuge à débit rapide flotte sur un corps liquide (p. ex., de l'eau) au moyen d'une coque, afin de fournir une source d'eau d'urgence et/ou de remplacement pour combattre un incendie. La source d'énergie de la pompe est fixée à cette dernière et flotte dans la même coque, ou est située à un autre endroit et alimente la pompe au moyen d'une prise ombilicale. Cette pompe centrifuge sert uniquement à pomper des liquides.
