FIRE STOP 200/30

Produced by: CRISTANINI - ITALY




FIRE STOP 200/30 is the fastest solution to the need for an initial fire fighting intervention in urban areas and places with a difficult access (historical centres, areas with heavy traffic, mountain areas), where the reduced size of equipment is of paramount importance.

Thanks to its limited size, FIRE STOP 200/30 is ideal to be used on board of small cars or also on board of ships.

FIRE STOP 200/30 stands out for its versatility, which means it can be used with extinguishing products (medium expansion foam) with variable percentages of mixing with water. It is equipped with 2 suction devices of extinguishing products (foam):

  • 1 device located in the water aspirator at the high-pressure water pump inlet
  • 1 device located in the high pressure line, after the pump.

FIRE STOP 200/30 uses a new technique, based on the consumption of a small amount of atomised water, the consequence of the high pressure guaranteed by the piston pump. The atomised water rapidly turns into vapour and absorbs the heat produced by the fire. This system eliminates damage caused by the large amounts of water normally used with low-pressure jets.




FIRE STOP 200/30 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS


* foam product aspiration up to 10% depending on applications (example: hydrocarbon or polar solvent fires) and extinguishing products used.

N.B.: Foam product aspiration ratio:

  • up to 3% for hydrocarbons
  • up to 6% for polar solvents


POS. COMPONENTS DESCRIPTION
1 Chassis In painted steel RAL 3000. Dimensions: 1020x550x610 mm. (40.1x21.6x24 in.), including the support for the firefighting lance and hose reel. The chassis is equipped with n. 4 handles for movement and lifting.
2 Pressure regulation valve Allows the adjustment of the pressure between 30 and 200 bar (435-2900 psi) and water recirculation when the group is running and the lance is closed.
3 Thermostatic valve Protects the pump from eventual overheating resulting from water heating recirculating in the pump caused by a prolonged functioning of the group with the lance closed.
4 Supply water filter In general, allows to filter incoming water in the high pressure pump. It is made with a brass body and a stainless steel filtering element.
5 Pressure gauge Gauge for high pressure water in glycerine bath, with scale 0-250 bar (0-3625 psi)
6 Intake systems of self-extinguishing products The two devices allow the use of a wide range of flame retardant products (foam) with different percentages of mixing with water. Each device has its own suction line with filter and bottom valve.
7 Battery The electic start-up engine is allowed by the battery (placed and fixed within the chassis). Features: 12V/45Ah.
8 Manual hose reel Manual, equipped with a 20 m (65.6 ft) high pressure hose able to enrol up to 50 m. (164 ft) of hose.
9 High pressure hose The hose length is 20 m. (65.6 ft).
10 High pressure firefighting lance Equipped with a gun, allows the delivery of water or water mixed with flame resistant foam products. The water or foam range can reach approx 20 m. (65.6 ft).
10.1 Firefighting nozzle To have a jet of water or water mixed with foam products. This nozzle can work in different mode: long distance jet or expanded short jet.
10.2 Nebulizer The nebulizer (only water) decreases the temperature of the flames, thus favoring extinguish fire.
11 Fuel tank Made of stainless steel, it has a capacity of about 6 l. (1.58 gal.), allowing a range of continuous operation of the group of at least 1,30 hours.
12 Water tank With a capacity of 120 l. (31.7 gal.). The tank is placed above the group and is provided with its own support and fixation, but it can be quickly separated. The tank height is 450 mm. (17.7 in.) The tank, once emptied, can be quickly disassembled.
The tank is equipped with:
a) visual inspection of the water level
b) Ø35 connection for water charging
c) supply and connecting hose
d) opening for cleaning
e) discharge plug
13 Support of product tank It allows to place a tank or a container of fire extinguishing products.
14 Trolley with wheels With 2 wheels of large diameter (300 mm.), quickly separable.
15 Tank of chemical products Estinguishing or flame retardant

Different functions of the FIRE STOP lance:

OPERATION PHASE WITH NEBULISED WATER ONLY BY MICRO DROPS TO SATURATE THE ROOM


OPERATION PHASE WITH WATER+FOAM WITH HALF-OPENED JET AT LOW PRESSURE



OPERATION PHASE WITH NEBULISED WATER ONLY OR WATER + FOAM AT HIGH PRESSURE


OPERATION PHASE WITH WATER+FOAM WITH MICRO DROPS TO QUICKLY COVER THE CONCERNED AREA
