VARI-X-III
High Expansion Nozzle
The VARI-X-III High Expansion Nozzle is portable
and provides rapid generation of a foam blanket
for fighting spill fires and for vapor mitigation
from spilled hazardous materials. These nozzles
are furnished complete with a matching foam eductor,
and are light-weight, corrosion resistant, and
ideal for many other governmental fire services.
Both nozzles are furnished with an inlet pressure
gauge for monitoring inlet water pressure. The
VARI-X-III nozzles produce copious quantities
of finished foam while utilizing very little foam
concentrate and less than 25 gpm of water. These
compact, lightweight nozzles have expansion ratios
as high as 250:1, and can generate over 750 CFM
of finished foam. This foam insulates exposures
from radiant heat, cools the fuel, and eliminates
oxygen, thereby quickly controlling and extinguishing
flammable liquid fires. In addition, the large
volume of foam generated can quickly cover hazardous
material spills, mitigate vapors, and help in
controlling many hazardous conditions. |
