Methods:
During an intervention, a fire is extinguished by the removal at one element of the Fire Triangle: Heat – Fuel – Air. The Drago fan is to lower the temperature quickly, remove the combustible and/or remove the air supply depending on the type of fuel; hydrocarbon, propane etc.. In all cases, a large amount of water is required, but it should be used in an optimized manner where each drop counts.
Based from the four stages of fire: Incipient, Growth, fully Developed or Decay, the Drago interchangeable Spiders nozzle (green, blue, red) offer variable flow rate 53 Us gpm to 785 Us gpm (200L/min to 2973 L/min) and distances 100 feet to 213 feet (30 meter to 65 meter).
SUGGESTED USES:
Tactic 1: Knock down flames and cool the hot gazes prior or during flashover on class A — with the appropriate selection of the Spider nozzle, cooling with appropriate the Drago interchangeable Spiders nozzle (green, blue, red).
Tactic 2: Foam blankets — forming for Class A and B (Hydrocarbons and Polar) extinguishes and/or prevents ignition in several ways by separating, cooling, smothering and penetrating. The final foam finish from the Drago fan aeration introduction is exceptional. Studies demonstrated, aerated foam last longer and provided a lasting cooling affect and barrier between fuel gases and possible ignition sources.
Tactic 3: The Drago mist heat absorption and cooling affect, can supress some type of class II combustible with a high boiling fuels such Diesel. It is accomplished with a sweeping motion of the Drago cannon above the entire fuel surface, providing surface cooling as the main suppression mechanism.
Tactic 4: Extinguishing flames during a class C electrical fire (below 1000 V) — can be achieved by spaying the Drago mist. Excellent cooling option on lithium battery fires; especially on Electrical vehicles.
