The thesis deals with comparing fire engine pumps PS 12 R1, Tohatsu VC82ASE, Ziegler Ultra Power 4, Magirus TS 10-1000 and Rosenbauer FOX 4. These pumps are used for fire-fighting mostly in difficult conditions or during floods by Fire department and Volunteer fire departments of townships and cities. The fire engine pumps were compared from the point of view of engine, pump and construction parameters. Based on these compared parameters we have determined that Tohatsu is better handling than other fire pumps due to its low weight and construction measurements. However, during long-lasting and more complicated intervention it lags behind more efficient and technically more advanced pumps Ziegler and Rosenbauer. From the manipulation point of view, with its low weight and smaller construction measurements Tohatsu pump is more practical choice, however, from the total efficient point of view the power of the pump is deficient. Therefore, engine pumps Rosenbauer Fox 4 and Ziegler Ultra Power 4 are more eligible to be used during long-lasting and more difficult intervention due to their significantly higher power and upgraded technology with automated operation.
