Flow Rate
With a high flow rate of 500 GPM (2000 LPM), the BlitzFire delivers a powerful stream to knock down fires fast—giving your crew the upper hand when seconds matter.
Unassisted Operation
The BlitzFire can operate without direct human intervention, allowing firefighters to focus on other critical tasks. This capability is especially valuable in situations where staffing is limited, as it enables effective firefighting with fewer personnel on hand. A safety tiedown strap comes with the BlitzFire that meets the minimum NFPA safety guidelines.
Safety Shutoff Valve
The BlitzFire features an automatic safety shutoff valve that stops water flow if stability is compromised—whether from missing tie-downs, undeployed legs, or unexpected shifting. It stays stable during normal forward/backward movement, with shutoff only triggered by side force.
Foam Compatibility
The BlitzFire can be integrated with various foam systems, including eductors and on-board foam systems. This compatibility allows firefighters to deliver foam effectively, enhancing fire suppression capabilities, especially in situations where foam is required for greater knockdown power and to prevent re-ignition.
Carbide-Tipped Legs
The heavy-duty, carbide-tipped legs provide enhanced stability on a variety of surfaces, ensuring that the monitor remains securely in place during operation. This feature is particularly beneficial when deploying on uneven or slippery terrain, where maintaining a stable position is crucial for effective firefighting.
Safety Locking Pin
The safety locking pin secures the monitor’s off position to prevent unintentional flow of water.
Detent Slide Valve
The BlitzFire’s integrated slide valve offers six detent positions for precise flow control, allowing firefighters to quickly adjust the stream to match changing fire conditions—from wide-area attacks to targeted hits.
Easy Mounting and Storage
The BlitzFire can be easily mounted to any accessible vertical or horizontal surface on a fire apparatus or stored in a compartment for quick access. This convenient mounting and storage option ensures that the monitor is always ready for rapid deployment, saving valuable time during emergency operations.
Rugged Aluminum Valve Handle
The rugged aluminum valve handle on the BlitzFire monitor offers dual functionality, serving both as a control mechanism and a built-in carrying handle.
