Description

The Chemguard MINI-X-III and VARI-X-III are portable High-Expansion Foam Nozzles designed to provide rapid generation of a foam blanket for fighting spill fires and for vapor mitigation from spilled hazardous materials.  These nozzles are furnished complete with a matching foam eductor, and are lightweight, corrosion resistant, and ideal for many applications in both industrial, municipal, and other governmental fire services.  Both nozzles are furnished with an inlet pressure gauge for monitoring inlet water pressure.

The MINI-X-III and VARI-X-III nozzles produce copious quantities of finished foam while utilizing very little foam concentrate and less than 25 gpm of water.  These compact, lightweight nozzles have expansion ratios as high as 250:1, and can generate over 750 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) of finished foam.  This foam insulates exposures from radiant heat, cools the fuel, and eliminates oxygen, thereby quickly controlling and extinguishing flammable liquid fires.  In addition, the large volume of foam generated can quickly cover hazardous material spills, mitigate vapors, and help in controlling many hazardous conditions.
