Description
Corrosion resistant stainless steel monitor Model MG 343 BZ is durable manual controlled monitor for fixed installation as well as trailer mounted unit. The monitor is generally used for protection of flammable liquid storage tanks, loading racks, dykes marine and many other Industrial application.
The Monitor possess several design features that provides ease of operation, minimum maintenance and resistance to normally destructive environments. The monitor is used with aspirating, non-aspirating and water nozzles with flow range upto 800 GPM (3030 LPM).
The monitor has welded stainless steel 3 inch (80 MM) waterway. The vertical and horizontal rotation is through corrosion resistant bronze swivel
joints with double row of stainless steel ball bearing. Both vertical and horizontal movements are controlled with hand wheel driven worm gears fully enclosed and protected from the elements. The monitor has large flow capability and can be manually operated by a single fire fighter. The design
ensures to prevent jet reaction forces from effecting the horizontal and the vertical position of the monitor. The counter balance is not required to offset the weight of the nozzle. The monitor has the ability for 360 deg. continuous horizontal rotation and angle of elevation from 90 deg. above horizontal to 45 deg. below horizontal. The water vanes in discharge tube reduces the turbulence and friction loss, thus increasing the nozzle performance to achieve greater range. To ensure desired performance, the friction loss through monitor must be considered while selecting the nozzle and the flow through the monitor with reference to available base pressure at inlet of the monitor. For flow and jet reach data refer monitor nozzle data sheet.
