MONITORS


Blitzfire

Blitzfire Monitor

The Blitzfire is a simple, light, and highly maneuverable attack monitor. Its low elevation angle makes it suitable for use indoors. It can go anywhere a handline goes while delivering much more water. If the Blitzfire starts to slide or lift the Safety Shut-off Valve automatically shuts off the flow of water. This patented safety feature reduces the risk of injury from an out-of-control appliance. The shut-off action slows near stroke end to eliminate water hammer. To reset the flow simply open the valve to any of six detent flow positions with the turbulence-free slide valve. The Blitzfire's discharge pivots make directing the stream extremely quick and effortless. A unique up/down pivot on the hose inlet allows the monitor to have stability even on porches, stair landings or the like. An anchor strap is included for safe operation on slick surfaces like marble floors. The main body is hardcoat anodized aluminum with a blue TFT powder coat finish inside and out
 
  • Integral slide valve for total nozzleman turbulence free flow control. Six detent positions allow for manned or unmanned use.
  • TFT's unique safety shut-off valve senses movement of the unit and quickly and safely shuts off the flow. The valve's unique shut down design prevents water hammer.
  • Flow range up to 500 gpm
  • The Blitzfire's low elevation angle allows for close to the ground operations.
  • Elevations of 10 to 50 degrees, 20 degrees left and right of center
  • At 29.5 pounds with the Max-Force nozzle, the unit is easily deployed as an interior attack line, or by limited personnel in exterior offensive or defensive operations.
  • Rear inlet swivels to allow for different hose sizes as well as use in above or below level operations.
  • Carbide tipped spikes for increased stability.
  • Retractable legs allow for compact mounting on apparatus and for quick deployment during use.
  • The Max-Force Dual Pressure Automatic Nozzle provides maximum flow at minimum operating pressure.

Blitzfire Oscillating

Blitzfire Oscillating Monitor

Oscillating front end for the Blitzfire monitor can be retrofitted into existing Blitzfires or purchased as a complete unit. All the standard features of the Blitzfire plus automatic oscillation back and forth. The mechanism is a water driven turbine and makes the nozzle sweep 10, 15, or 20 degrees either side of center, in a smooth, rhythmic motion for unmanned controlled attack. The Blitzfire Oscillating monitor is perfect for initial attacks, protecting exposures and Haz-Mat situations. Flow range up to 500 gpm (2,000 I/min). The monitor features low friction inlet and outlet pivots. Elevation is manually adjustable between 10 and 50 degrees above horizontal. The oscillating mechanism can be disengaged and horizontal rotation moved manually. The Safety Shut-off Valve will shut off flow if monitor slides or lifts. It has six detent flow positions with a patented turbulence-free slide valve for operator flow control. When the legs are folded the carbide tips point up for carrying safety.
 
  • Automatic oscillation at 20, 30 or 40 degree sweeps.
  • Easy to disengage and operate manually.
  • Vertical travel from 10 to 50 degrees above horizontal.
  • May be manually overridden.
  • Flow range up to 500 gpm.
  • SAFE-TAK II safety shut off.
  • Pivoting inlet coupling.
  • 6 detent "nozzleman flow control".
  • Folded size 28.5"l x 11"w x 10"h (70cm x 28cm x 28cm)
  • Open size is 27.5" l x 34" w x 11" h (70cm x 86.3cm x 28cm)
  • Specify local threads required
