  1. TFT Blitzfire

  2. The Task Force Blitzfire is a personal portable monitor (PPM) capable of flows of 500+ GPM and is easily deployed by one firefighter.

  3. It is supplied by a single 2 ½” hose, can be pre-connected to the apparatus, and can be mounted on the exterior of the rig for rapid deployment.

  4. The design of the inlet and the discharge neck creates a downward pressure that adds stability to the Blitzfire.

  5. It has a rear pivoting inlet that allows the hose to stay flat to the ground.

  6. The folding legs extend outward to provide lateral stability.

  7. The discharge can be adjusted for a low attack angle.

  8. It can be secured to the ground or another object by using the provided strap and base ring.

  9. The operating handle has a ratchet feature that allows for partial opening of the monitor. • Pull the handle lock outward and pull the handle towards you.

  10. It has a safety feature that shuts off the monitor when a sudden force (in excess of) 1G is introduced. • Hydraulic dampening in the handle prevents water hammer in the Blitzfire.

  11. Not for extending lines • Because of the automatic shut-off feature, you should NOT extend hose lines from the Blitzfire. • Any force greater than 1 G will automatically shut the Blitzfire down: • Laterally • From the top • Blunt force • Water hammer (from the pump side) Any of these will trip this feature.

  12. Discharge pressures with solid tip • 100 feet of 2 ½” 100 PSI = 400 GPM 125 PSI = 450 GPM 150 PSI = 500 GPM

  13. Solid tip (continued) • 200 feet of 2 ½” 150 PSI = 435 GPM 180 PSI = 470 GPM 210 PSI = 500 GPM

  14. Fog tip settings • The fog tip has two settings: • Low Pressure (55 PSI) • Standard (100 PSI) Can also be adjusted to straight stream, fog, or flush.

  15. Discharge pressures with fog tip • 100 Feet of 2 ½” • Standard tip setting 205 PSI = 500 GPM

  16. Fog tip (continued) • 100 feet of 2 ½” • Low pressure setting 180 PSI = 500 GPM
