Are you concerned about national homeland security and terrorism? The threat of biological and chemical terrorism is very real. The Davidson ATV is a fire hydrant part that is an advanced anti-terrorism technology. This piece of anti-terrorist equipment is designed for use in all fire hydrant systems, and will dramatically improve the safety of the drinking water supply.
   
Water experts nationwide agree the most vulnerable portion of our domestic water supply is the water distribution system. They further agree that fire hydrants represent the most accessible point in that distribution system.
 
Davidson Fire Hydrant Technologies has developed the Davidson ATV to close this gaping hole in our distribution system. Unlike external locks or devices, the ATV is totally stealth, passive and requires no special tools or operations on the part of the fireman to get water from the hydrant. In fact, the ATV lowers the fireman's response time by eliminating the need to flush the hydrant prior to its attachment to the pumper.
 
In an average day, Americans pump over 27 billion gallons of water through the distribution system. That water needs to be safe. The Davidson ATV protects our drinking water from all types of contamination where it is most vulnerable.
   
This device is the first major step in protecting the water distribution system and finished drinking water supply including the prevention of intentional contamination through the hydrant.
   
The device protects the hydrant from foreign materials insertion of all kinds; including toxins, rocks, bottles, debris, etc.
   
It protects the pump from debris clogging the intake or entering the impeller.
   
The above benefits result in improved public safety from fire hazard.
