If the Chapter heading of Fire Fighting is included in the definition of Capital Goods, given in the CENVAT credit Rules, 2004, you can very well avail CENVAT credit.

Yes you can avail cenvat credit on fire fighting equipment used in plant. Logic :- In case of Aircondition used in plant cenvat credit is allowed. similar logic applies to above equipment. since it is in or in relation to production.

if fire fighting equipment are capital goods then A/c to Rule 2 of CCR 50% credit can be availed in 1st year and bal can be taken in subsequent year provided they are in possession.
