Fire Protection Approved

This BETE high-efficiency spiral was designed specifically with critical fire and explosion suppression applications in mind. These nozzles feature superior performance unequalled by traditional whirl nozzles.
SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Sprays composed of droplets 30% to 50% smaller than conventional designs at equivalent pressures Extraordinarily large surface area of spray enhances evaporation and cooling Rugged, compact design Multiple concentric cone spray, unique to spiral pattern, maximizes contact SUPERIOR FIRE/LOSS PREVENTION APPLICATIONS Gas wellhead protection Safeguarding ship-borne cargo Storage tank protection Secondary explosion protection in explosive, dusty environments Mitigation of HF and other toxic gas releases
N6 nozzles protect a propane storage tank from fire and explosion.
