Ngokuya ngokuthi ukhona yini umthombo wamandla, zihlukaniswa zibe: amaphampu omlilo angenawo umthombo wamandla (okubizwa ngokuthi amaphampu),iyunithi yephampu yomlilo(okubizwa ngokuthi iyunithi yephampu).

1. Amaphampu omlilo angenawo amandla angahlukaniswa ngokulandela imithetho elandelayo

1. Ngokusho kwesikhathi sokusetshenziswa, ihlukaniswe yaba: amaphampu omlilo wezimoto, amaphampu omlilo wasolwandle, amaphampu omlilo wobunjiniyela, namanye amaphampu omlilo.

2. Ngokwezinga lokucindezela kwe-outlet, ihlukaniswe ngokuthi: iphampu yomlilo yokucindezela okuphansi, ipompo yomlilo yokucindezela okuphakathi, iphampu yomlilo yokucindezela okuphakathi nendawo, iphampu yomlilo enengcindezi ephezulu, kanye nepompo yomlilo ephansi kakhulu.

3. Ihlukaniswe ngokusetshenziswa: iphampu yomlilo yokuphakela amanzi,Iphampu yomlilo ezinzile, hlinzeka ngephampu ye-foam liquid fire.

4. Ngokwezici ezisizayo, zihlukaniswe zibe: amaphampu omlilo avamile, amaphampu omlilo ajulile, namaphampu omlilo angaphansi kwamanzi.

ezimbili,iyunithi yephampu yomliloIngahlukaniswa ngokwemithetho elandelayo:

1. Ngokohlobo lomthombo wamandla, ihlukaniswe yaba:Iyunithi yepompo yomlilo yenjini ye-diesel, isethi yepompo yomlilo yemoto kagesi, isethi yephampu yomlilo ye-turbine yegesi, isethi yepompo yomlilo yenjini kaphethiloli.

2. Ihlukaniswe ngokusetshenziswa: isethi yephampu yomlilo yokuphakela amanzi,Iyunithi yephampu yomlilo ezinzile, Isethi yephampu yomlilo ephathwayo ephathwa ngesandla (3) ihlukaniswe yaba: isethi yephampu yomlilo evamile, isethi yepompo yomthombo ojulile, kanye nephampu yomlilo engaphansi kwamanzi ebekwe ngokuvumelana nezici ezisizayo zesethi yephampu.
