Foam nozzles
LEADER offers 2 ranges of foam nozzles :
Low expansion firefighting foam nozzles: the EXPANDER range.
With a FiberTech® body, a short aluminium barrel and a trigger-style handle, they are very light and well balanced.
The EXPANDER foam nozzles are easy to hold and have an unrivalled foam quality thanks to an excellent air suction system.
The body, made with the FiberTech® anti-corrosion composite material, has a ball valve, a turning inlet connection and a large opening/closing handle and trigger (trigger not available in USA) to make it easier to hold.
FiberTech® offers an excellent “corrosion resistance/weight” ratio which makes it an essential member of the foam equipment family.
The short barrel makes it easy to store the FiberTech® nozzle in vehicle boots and the aluminium foam barrel colour makes it quick and easy to distinguish between the different models: a yellow barrel for 52 gpm nozzles, and a red barrel for the 105 gpm EXPANDER.
This colour code matches the European EN16712 standard which governs portable firefighting foam equipment.
These foam nozzles are supplied at a pressure of 72 psi and can be used in combination with the Leader MIX 200, Leader MIX 400 or Leader MIX 1000 automatic proportioners.
The range of multifunctional water-foam nozzle: the TWIN ACTION range.
Thanks to the TWIN ACTION, there’s no need to carry around a removable foam adapter !
The TWIN ACTION multifunctional water-foam nozzle is an adjustable flow nozzle with an integrated low expansion foam generator.
It is a FiberTech® composite nozzle with a sliding yellow ring to rapidly select the water or foam position.
Moving the head to the foam position opens the air suction intakes which then create the premix supplying the nozzle.
An excellent quality low expansion foam is pushed towards the fire.
The rotation of the multifunctional head to the water position allows the flow (21 or 66 gpm) and jet angle (straight jet to spray jet) to be changed, whilst the rotation to the foam position allows the expansion to be adjusted between 3 and 10.
The body made with the FiberTech® anti-corrosion composite material has a ball valve, a turning inlet connection, a “trigger” (trigger not available in the USA) type handle and a yellow opening/closing handle for greater visibility.
Thanks to FiberTech®, the TWIN ACTION multifunctional water-foam nozzle only weighs 3.3 lbs.
The benefits of the TWIN ACTION multifunctional water-foam nozzle are:
Optimizes firefighting and the preventive action of additives used (dampening, retardant…) thanks to the two positions: water and foam.
Optimizes space in vehicle boot and reduce the number of firefighting equipment.
Ability to adjust flow whilst other foam nozzles are usually single-flow.
