FireDos Proportioners

Stationary proportioning systems for fire extinguishing systems

Reducing cost,
enhancing performance

GEN III is the next level evolution of hydraulically driven proportioning systems to generate fire fighting foam. Sturdier, safer, more functional: GEN III has many improvements, making their application in foam extinguishing systems more efficient and easier to use.

The product concept, specially developed by FireDos is proven many times in real-life applications. It is also the centerpiece of the latest generation GEN III.

A unique product concept:

Proportioning Systems from FireDos

FireDos specialise in the development and production of innovative and reliable proportioning systems and extinguishing monitors for fire fighting. We provide our customers security – through risk reduction, lower operating costs and compliance with legal regulations. Every single FireDos product is designed, built and tested to meet the most challenging conditions. Our proportioning systems and extinguishing monitors fulfill an elementary task: they protect people, buildings, plant and equipment.

Technical competence is FireDos priority: they developed and established the proportioning concept consisting of a water motor and piston pump on the market over twenty years ago, and with it the environmentally friendly and cost-effective testing of the proportioning rate, without the production of foam or premix. Since then, we have delivered more than 13,000 units to municipalities and industrial customers around the world.

PURELY MECHANICAL, HIGH RELIABILITY

The purely mechanical concept consists of a water motor and piston pump, featuring absolute functional safety. Driven just by the water flow, no electricity and no backup power supply is required.

UNLIMITED FIRE-FIGHTING TIME

As the separate foam agent tank is unpressurised and can therefore be refilled whenever necessary, users benefit from unlimited fire-fighting time.

FOR ALL FOAM AGENT TYPES

It is capable of handling all types of foam concentrates, even highly viscous, alcohol-resistant and fluorine-free foam agents.

FOR ALL TYPES OF FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEMS

Thanks to the wide operating range, the proportioning systems are qualified for all types of fire extinguishing systems like sprinkler, deluge, wet and dry extinguishing systems.

CONSTANT PROPORTIONING RATE

A constant proportioning rate across a wide operating range guarantees safe proportioning and efficient firefighting in every situation.

TESTING THE PROPORTIONING RATE WITHOUT FIRE FIGHTING FOAM OR PREMIX

The purely mechanical system provides a cost-efficient and eco-friendly proportioning rate testing, completely without fire fighting foam.
