Based on the vast experience of US Fire Pump Emergency Response Team with suppressing industrial fires and mitigating other hazards, the DFI unit was designed to provide assistance in fighting dangerous fires by supplying foam into the water system.
The highly effective injection unit implements FoamPro® foam monitoring and foam flow into your pipeline of pumps and hoses to combat any situation. Capable of flowing 300 GPM of foam concentrate (1,136 Lpm) into the system and monitor the foam to water ratio accurately and consistently to ensure quality suppression and reduce waste. System is capable of flowing any form of firefighting foam, including our Dwight Signature Series Foam.
Water and foam mixture can be fed into large volume firefighting monitors such as the US Fire Pump Sentry 9© trailer mounted monitor, or sent over a long distance hose relay, substantially increasing the logistical efficiency at incident sites. In today’s ever-changing foam market, DFI stands out as one of the most reliable and effective options available—proven to perform across a wide range of foam types.
The DFI unit is compact and easy to deploy. The self-contained pumping system can be built on a base skid, or a trailer for easy transportation. A large integrated fuel tank can hold enough fuel to run the pump for up to 8 hours.
Firefighting experience and commitment to reliability are incorporated into the design of the control system. All US Fire Pump DFI units provide a user-friendly, water resistant control panel as a primary interface, advanced sensors, redundant control mechanisms, and emergency shut-down switches for safe and easy operation.
