High Velocity Water Spray Nozzles are internal swirl plate type open nozzles designed for use in fixed water spray or deluge system for the fire protection application.
These nozzles produce solid uniform and dense core of high velocity water spray to effect fire control. Nozzles are normally used to cool the surface as well as for extinguishment. High Velocity Water Spray Nozzles are typically used for Deluge protection of special hazards such as oil filled transformers, switch-gear, chemical process equipments, conveyor system and flammable liquid storage areas. The minimum desirable pressure to achieve a reasonable spray pattern is 3.5 Kg./sq.cm. (50 psi). The water distribution pattern is as shown in the graph in following pages giving maximum effective axial distance from the nozzle. The spray pattern shown is with indoor application. The system designer must consider wind velocity while designing the system for outdoor application. Field obstruction if any affecting the spray pattern of the nozzle must be considered. The nozzle may be oriented in any position as deemed necessary to cover the hazard. 3.5 bar to 7 bar pressure at Nozzle is recommended for effective application requiring high velocity water delivery for rapid extinguishment of all fires by emulsification. The Nozzles are having inbuilt Strainer, but still main pipeline strainer is required in the system. The Blow-off cap can be used to prevent the depositing of foreign material in the water way of the nozzle.Use of Blow-off cap is optional and not UL listed.
