Fire Hose Nozzle Use And Make

By Anita Ortega


This is equipment that is used to extinguish out flames. A hose is a pipe that carries the substance that is being used to stop the burn. When in used outdoors it is fitted to a blaze engine or an inferno hydrant. The average working pressure of fire hose nozzle range between eight to twenty bars while the highest pressure is given to be 83 bars.

When it has been done with its usage the pipe should be hanged on a place where it is possible to drip out all the water in it to unsure it does not depreciate or rot which would make it to break into pieces and make it unreliable for its use purpose. That tells why in every inferno station there are high fitted structures that are for hanging these devices for proper maintenance and safe keeping.

Other use of this device is as a crowd control, this is a technique to help scatter away protesters who have proofed to be out of control. Modern inferno pipes use a wide range of natural and imitation fabrics and elastomers in their structure. This has an advantage in that they can be stored when wet and still do not rot and also these materials can stand the destructive effects of exposure to chemicals and sunlight.

The current pipes are also of a light weight than the older makes which helps lessen the physical strain by the fire fighters. An improvement of this device is one which sucks out air from the interior of the inferno pipes. This process makes the pipe rigid and smaller. This is of help since it allows more inferno pipes to be packed in the same section on a blaze fighting machinery.

The nozzle helps generate and direct a stream of water, powder, foam and other used inferno extinguishing substances. This device is used to regulate the spill when emitting it from the pipe. It can generate narrow streams which usually goes a longer distance. Another spill is a dispersed stream which spills widely but not as far as the narrow one. Using this fore device you can control the flow of the extinguishing substance without really putting off the supply.

The best should have the following features; usually it is preferred it be of an aluminum make which is strong and light weight. It should also be able to maintain a constant flow rate of the users choice, this helps to control the flow in accordance to the intensity of the blaze.

These products should have satisfied the set rules and regulations to be followed internationally on the quality of the make. Since there are diverse sizes of pipes then there should also be diversified sizes of these products, normal ones range between 1.5 inches to 4 inches in diameter

Since these devices are easily breakable they should be handled with care when improving pressure to ensure they last long enough for their value. High pressures should be when necessitated by very vigorous flames. Cleaning of these devices is easy when it design favor easy reach to where there may be clogging.
