Accurate proportioning means no waste of foam concentrate and a reduction in potentially damaging fire water run-off. FireDos achieves this with a pump that only needs the firewater supply to run it. No external power source required and atmospheric foam storage tank means continuous running in challenging fire situations. FireDos has gained an enviable reputation amongst fire professionals.
MSR of Germany developed their FireDos units in answer to the needs of both industry and fire service alike. Each FireDos unit is made up of two main elements: the water-powered motor (1) and the mixer pump (2). The water supply to the fire hoses passes through the motor and provides its motive power; its rotational speed depends on the volumetric flow rate of the water in litres / gallons per minute. The unit is equally suited to fixed pipe installation as to use with lay-flat hoses.
There is a proportional relationship between volumetric flow rate and the rev. speed of the motor. Changes in the volumetric flow rate have a direct effect on the speed of rotation of the motor drive shaft. The water-powered motor drives the mixing pump. In this way, energy is drawn from the flow of water in the form of pressure and is used as working energy required to drive the mixing pump.
