It is a portable and versatile tool used by firefighters to control and extinguish fires in various situations, particularly those where traditional firefighting methods may not be suitable.
The water lance is often used to produce a fine mist of water over the fire blanket deployed, to further cool the car.
By spraying a water mist over the deck (with the car underneath it), the vapour escaping from the deck is abated so that most of the toxic (white) vapour remains under the deck instead of flowing into the building/boat/garage.
- Made of high-quality stainless steel.
- The upper lance shaft is PE-coated to prevent electric shocks.
- When connected to a water supply, the lance produces a fine mist.
- The length of the shaft is adjustable from 500 mm to 1350 mm.
- Nominal pressure and flow are approx. 90 l/min at 8 BAR.
- The spray lance is ABS approved and meets the requirements
The water mist lance and penetration hammer are designed to meet the requirements in SOLAS II-2/10.7.3 regulation, for extinguishing fires inside confined spaces, such as fires in containers.
However, the model is also made suitable to flood EV car Lithium batteries in order to cool down these batteries in case of fire. This solution for creating water mist inside confined spaces is simple to operate, and at the same time very effective.
Use of the lance and hammer is very simple thanks to instructions manual supplied.
NOTE : According to the regulations, vessels built on or after January 1, 2016, and designed to carry
containers on or above the weather deck, must carry at least one water mist lance.
