Has your department recently switched or are you looking at switching to synthetic fluorine-free foam concentrates?
To address these issues, we conducted testing with common SFFF concentrates to determine if the current eductors we offer were able to proportion each one correctly. What we discovered was used to inform additional design changes and increase the efficiency and effectiveness of your foam operation.

The largest waterway on your intake valve will always give you the most flow-efficient design. This means your friction loss will be lower with a larger waterway.
"We are looking at replacing our intake valve on the pumper tanker and most of our response area does not have hydrants. Is there a particular intake valve for a department like ours that does almost all drafting?"
Why is the Jumbo Intake Valve Best for Drafting?
When your crew is drafting from a water source, you are creating a prime that pulls the water from your source and into your pump. This is different when using a fire hydrant since they provide pressure to help move the water.
