Ground breaking advancement in fire nozzle technology
The innovative SAM Smart Nozzle, with patent-pending N2P TechnologyTM Designed to work with the SAM integrated water control system to give nozzle operations more information than they’ve ever had before.
Currently, it is up to the pump operator to set the pump and line pressures. But it is no small task. The pump operator must estimate friction and head loss plus cope with unknown losses from bends and kinks in the line. The result can be incorrect pressure and flow at the end of the hose, the critical point of the fire attack. Meanwhile, the attack crew is on the radio calling for water. Once they have water in a charged attack line, they may need more or less pressure, wasting precious time in a situation where seconds matter.
With patent-pending Nozzle-to-Pump, or N₂P Technology, the SAM Smart Nozzle gives the crew on the line direct information and provides feedback to the truck using the SAM System technology. The result is greater safety and efficiency on the fireground.
