The new TFT Working Fire nozzle delivers revolutionary performance when users need maximum flows for a “working fire.” For everyday use, it is a true 150 gpm at 75 psi Fixed GPM Nozzle, but when users need even more GPM, the nozzle’s exclusive pressure relief system dramatically limits nozzle reaction.
optimum flow
At low flows, just like every other fixed GPM nozzle, it is clear from the stream quality that optimum flow has not yet been reached. When users achieve the 150gpm rate, the nozzle flows great, and there is about 65lbs of nozzle reaction force. However, when users need a lot more GPM, that is where the Working Fire excels.
By integrating TFT’s exclusive pressure relief, a 33% increase in flow rates only yields a 33% increase in reaction force. Compare that to a traditional fixed nozzle, which increases 78%! With the Working Fire nozzle, TFT is able to deliver high GPM (200 gpm) with about 30lbs less reaction force than other nozzles.
Colors and configurations
The Working Fire is available in a break-apart or integrated stainless steel ball valve configuration. Pistol grips, bail handles, and stream shapers are available in colors and spinning teeth are an option.
The nozzle has a rugged, black hard coat finish with a black reflective Scotchlite trim. There is a tactile indicator and detent for a straight stream that prevents unintended rotation into other streams.
