WORKING PRINCIPLE
The branch is configured for self-induction or a premixed foam solution supply.
Pressurized water enters the branch and establishes flow through the assembly.
The Venturi arrangement draws concentrate through a pickup tube, or the branch receives premixed foam solution. Air is drawn into the aspirating chamber.
The discharge tube delivers low-expansion foam for the selected application. Foam and system conditions determine the resulting performance.
APPLICATIONS
Application areas described in the series catalogue.
INSPECTION & TESTING
