TFT Blitzfire

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

• 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.

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

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

• The folding legs extend outward to provide lateral stability.

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

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

• 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.

• 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.

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.
