This pistol-grip nozzles has a stainless steel ball valve for smooth ease of operation via a fully controllable on/off stirrup handle. Fully hard black anodized for maximum corrosion protection the CAFS nozzle has a fixed-stream jet barrel and silencer to reduce noise levels, particular effective during initial use. Originally used for wildfire woodland firefighting CAFS foam has also proved highly advantageous in structural fire scenarios and is now commonly used to suppress car fires, skip fires and waste fires.
With enhanced ‘first-attack’ capabilities CAFS foam rapidly knocks down the fire allowing first-responding fire crews to improve fire conditions in advance of back-up personnel arriving on scene. CAFS foam also has the ability to effectively ‘stick’ to both horizontal and vertical surfaces thanks to its ‘shaving-foam’ like properties allowing maximum moisture penetration. Less water is also needed using the CAFS nozzle which is a major advantage where water is a limited resource.
The Attack 500 CAFS is supplied as standard with a detachable silencer. Also available as an optional extra is the CAFS Lance and Jet/Spray attachment. The CAFS lance is available in either 0.5m, 1.0m or 1.30m lengths and incorporates a multi-directional stainless steel spray tip ideally suited for penetration into inaccessible areas such as roof spaces, car windows, skips etc. The Jet/Spray attachment provides the ability to incorporate CAFS performance with conventional jet/spray techniques. The Attack 500 CAFS nozzle is available with any International inlet adaptor.
