Product Description
The DHST025 Emergency Fire Nozzle Handheld Shutoffs is a compact, rapid-deployment firefighting tool designed for first responders, industrial safety teams, and emergency services. Built for speed and simplicity, this nozzle features an intuitive shutoff lever that allows untrained personnel to quickly control water flow during critical emergencies.
Instant-Actuation Shutoff Lever
The large, paddle-style shutoff lever requires minimal force (≤5 N) to operate, accessible even with gloved hands or in low-visibility conditions. A spring-loaded mechanism returns the lever to the "open" position when released, preventing accidental shutoff during intense operations .
Compact, Lightweight Design
Weighing just 2.1 kg and measuring 32 cm in length, the DHST025 is 40% lighter than standard industrial nozzles. Its streamlined profile fits in emergency kits, vehicle storage compartments, and backpacks, enabling rapid deployment in confined spaces .
Versatile Flow Options
Offers two preset flow patterns: a narrow jet (10°) for targeted fire suppression and a broad fog (60°) for area cooling. The fixed flow rate of 75 GPM at 1.5 MPa (218 PSI) balances water efficiency with sufficient output for small to medium fires .
Impact-Resistant Construction
The body is constructed from glass-reinforced polyamide (GRP) with a stainless steel nozzle tip, able to withstand drops from 3 meters onto concrete without damage. It is fully submersible (IP67 rating) and operates in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 120°C .
Universal Compatibility
Equipped with a 1.5" NH/NST male coupling, the DHST025 connects to standard fire hoses, garden hoses (with adapter), and portable pumps. A built-in strainer prevents clogging from debris in emergency water sources (ponds, buckets, etc.) .
Workplace Emergencies: Ideal for factories, warehouses, and construction sites, where quick access to firefighting equipment can contain small fires before they spread.
Vehicle Fires: Compact size fits in cars, trucks, and emergency vehicles, enabling rapid response to engine or cargo fires.
Natural Disasters: Used by rescue teams in flood or earthquake scenarios to clear debris with water jets or suppress secondary fires.
Public Venues: Deployed in malls, stadiums, and schools as part of emergency response kits, operable by staff with minimal training.
Wildland Firefighting: Lightweight design supports backpack pump systems for initial attack on small wildfires.
Q: Can someone without firefighting training operate this nozzle?
A: Yes, the intuitive lever design requires no specialized training. A quick-start guide is printed on the nozzle body for reference.
Q: What is the maximum hose length it can support?
A: It operates effectively with 50-foot hoses; longer lengths (up to 100 feet) may reduce flow rate slightly.
Q: Is it compatible with foam?
A: A foam adapter (sold separately) allows use with portable foam concentrate containers. Rinse thoroughly after foam use.
Q: How do I clean the strainer?
A: The twist-off strainer cap can be removed by hand; clean with water and a soft brush every 10 uses or after drawing water from non-potable sources.
