Unlike traditional foam solutions, our engineered F-500 EA® Piercing Nozzle system will allow your team to locate and accurately inject F-500 Encapsulator Agent into a hot spot to reduce high temperatures and rapidly extinguish the fire. F-500 EA® Piercing Nozzle systems are designed specifically for controlling combustible powder and granular bulk storage incidents in specific fireground situations like silos, bunkers, and piles. This method allows a minimal amount of solution to be used that could otherwise cause clumping and flow restrictions within a storage vessel in larger quantities. Each of our piercing nozzle packages includes all basic equipment necessary to successfully apply F-500 EA® solution to a hot spot.
