NOZZLE FLOW
The flow and effective reach data found on the following pages is compiled and updated by our engineering staff in the testing area of our assembly department.
The flow is determined by an electronic flowmeter while a piezometer gauge at the base/inlet of the nozzle establishes the “nozzle pressure.”
The effective reach is determined by elevating the nozzle to 32 degrees above horizontal and at a height of 4’ above ground level. The reach of Straight Stream,
Narrow Fog (30 degrees) and Wide Fog (90 degrees) are then established by measuring where the last water droplets are falling at ground level. These tests are
conducted in “still air” conditions, so the actual results will vary depending upon conditions.
