1.0 MEANING OF SIGNAL WORDS
A safety related message is identified by a safety alert symbol and a signal word to indicate the level of risk involved
with a particular hazard. Per ANSI standard Z535.4-1998 the definitions of the three signal words are as follows:
DANGER
CAUTION
WARNING
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury.
LIM-030 November 22, 1999 Rev 1©Copyright Task Force Tips, Inc. 1999

Injury can occur from an inadequately supported nozzle. The mounting must be capable
of supporting the nozzle reaction force which can be in excess of 2300 lbs (4000 GPM at
120 PSI).

The Task Force Tips Master, Monsoon and Typhoon nozzles are automatic pressure control deluge nozzles. These
automatic nozzles operate by sensing the pressure at the nozzle's inlet and adjusting the discharge opening to maintain a
constant pressure throughout the flow range of the nozzle. While flowing, the stream pattern can be varied from wide fog
to straight stream. Trapped debris can be removed without the use of tools.
These nozzles are constructed of hardcoat anodized aluminum and UV resistant rubber. Their rugged construction is
compatible with the use of fresh water as well as firefighting foam solutions. A summary of each nozzle's characteristics is
shown in the table below.
OPERATING NOTE ABOUT AUTOMATIC NOZZLES: The automatic nozzle is considerably different than
"conventional" nozzles because of basic changes in the operating principle. These differences not only assure the most
effective operation under a variety of conditions, but will also utilize the available water supply most efficiently. It is
important that nozzle operators, pump operators, and officers be fully aware of these differences. Therefore, proper
instruction is required for safe and effective operations.
NOTES ON ABOVE TABLE:

Other threads, coupling sizes or connector styles can be specified at time of order.
Master nozzle is also available in selectable gallonage or fixed orifice models. See catalog for details.
Typhoon nozzle is field adjustable within the range of pressures shown.
For long term installations, it is recommended that the threads be greased before installing the nozzle.
2.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
Do not couple aluminum to brass. Dissimilar metals coupled together can cause galvanic
corrosion that can result in inability to unscrew threads or complete loss of thread
engagement.
This equipment is intended for use by trained personnel for firefighting. Their use for
other purposes may involve hazards not addressed by this manual. Seek appropriate
guidance and training to reduce risk of injury.
Nozzle must be properly connected. Mismatched or damaged threads may cause nozzle
to leak or uncouple under pressure and could cause injury.

Some volatile liquids can be ignited by static discharge.
Static build-up can occur from:
Electrochemical separation of charge as water drains through low conductivity,
refined products.
Applying foam over a low conductivity liquid of sufficient depth to retain the
charge created as the foam blanket drains.
Streaming currents as water or foam is introduced into the storage tank.

Water is a conductor of electricity. Application of water solutions on high voltage
equipment can cause injury or death by electrocution. The amount of current that may be
carried back to the nozzle will depend on the following factors:
Voltage of the line or equipment
Distance from the nozzle to the line or equipment
Size of the stream
Whether the stream is solid or broken
Purity of the water

2.1 USE WITH SALT WATER
2.2 VARIOUS MODELS AND TERMS
Use with salt water is permissible provided nozzle is thoroughly cleaned with fresh water after each use. The service
life of the nozzle may be shortened due to the effects of corrosion and is not covered under warranty.
The spray pattern is changed from wide fog to straight stream by means of the "stream shaper". Models are available
with five different methods to move the stream shaper as shown in figures 1A - 1E. See catalog for model numbers
and details.

2.3 HYDRAULIC INSTALLATION
2.5 PATTERN CONTROL
2.6 USE WITH FOAM
2.4 ELECTRIC INSTALLATION
On nozzles with hydraulic stream shaper actuation, the hydraulic system is connected to the nozzle with two 1/8"-27 NPT
female ports on the filter block located on the nozzle's stream shaper. When the port on the left of the filter block (as seen
from behind the nozzle) is pressurized, the shaper moves back into the wide fog position. Pressurizing the right port
moves the shaper forward into straight stream. Hydraulic lines must be flexible to allow for movement of the stream
shaper.
Use only clean fluid compatible with DuPont Viton Fluoroelastomer. System must be free from all dirt, chips, and
contaminants. Replacement filter elements are available from Task Force Tips (item #M160). Maximum hydraulic
pressure is 1000 PSI (70 BAR, 7000 KPA).
TFT's Master, Monsoon and Typhoon have full pattern control from straight stream to wide fog. On models with manual
shapers, turning the stream shaper clockwise (as seen from the operating position behind the nozzle) moves the shaper
to the straight stream position. Turning the stream shaper counterclockwise will result in an increasingly wider pattern.
Since the stream trim point varies with flow, the nozzle should be "trimmed" after changing the flow to obtain the
straightest and farthest reaching stream. To properly trim a stream, first open the pattern to narrow fog. Then close the
stream to parallel to give maximum reach. Note: Turning the shaper further forward will cause stream crossover and
reduce the effective reach of the nozzle.
The Master, Monsoon and Typhoon nozzles may be used with foam solutions. Refer to fire service training for the proper
use of foam.
Nozzles with electric stream shaper actuation are shipped with a wiring diagram (TFT item #LIM-040). Other
documentation is available on request. The actuator is not rated as ignition proof, explosion proof, or intrinsically safe.
NOTE: Master and Monsoon nozzles are equipped with manual override in case of electrical power failure. Refer to figure
1D for manual override instructions.
For Class B fires, lack of foam or interruption in the foam stream can cause a break in the
foam blanket and greatly increase the risk of injury or death. Assure that:
Application rate is sufficient (see NFPA 11 or foam manufacturer's
recommendations).
Enough concentrate is on hand to complete task (see NFPA for minimum duration
time requirements).
Foam logistics have been carefully planned. Allow for such things as:
Storage of foam in a location not exposed to the hazard it protects.
Personnel, equipment and technique to deliver foam at a rapid enough rate.
Removal of empty foam containers.
Clear path to deliver foam, as hoses and other equipment and vehicles are
deployed.
!
!
!
!
!
!
!
Improper use of foam can result in injury or damage to the environment. Follow foam
manufacturer's instructions and fire service training to avoid:
Using wrong type of foam on a fire, i.e. Class A foam on a Class B fire.
Plunging foam into pools of burning liquid fuels.
Causing environmental damage.
Directing stream at personnel.
!
!
!
!
There is a wide variety of foam concentrates. Each user is responsible for verifying that
any foam concentrate chosen to be used with this unit has been tested to assure that the
foam obtained is suitable for the purpose intended.
The electric motor and other components are ignition sources. The electric stream
shaper should be operated only in areas where there is adequate ventilation and no
hazard of flammable vapor buildup.

3.0 AUTOMATIC NOZZLE OPERATION
3.1 FLOW CHARACTERISTICS OF MASTER AND MONSOON
To increase the expansion ratio, Task Force Tips "Foamjet LX" (model FJ-LX-M) may be used with the Master nozzle. This
low expansion foam tube attaches and detaches quickly from the nozzle. Adjust nozzle spray pattern to give best foam
quality. Note: As expansion ratio is increased, the reach of the nozzle will be decreased due to the greater amount of
bubbles in the stream and their inability to penetrate the air. Generally the reach with foam is approximately 10% less than
with water only. Actual results will vary based on brand of foam, hardness of water, temperature, etc.
Automatic nozzles operate by sensing the pressure at the nozzle's inlet and adjusting the discharge opening to maintain
a constant pressure throughout the flow range of the nozzle. For example, when the pressure at the inlet increases, the
exit area is automatically increased until the inlet pressure returns to the nominal pressure of the nozzle.
Note: Inlet pressure of the Master, Monsoon and Typhoon nozzle will stabilize at the nominal pressure (within 5%). This
stabilization may take as long as half a minute after a change in inlet pressure.
Within its flow range, the Master and Monsoon automatic nozzles operate at the nominal pressure of 100 PSI (7 BAR,
700 KPA). Figures 2A and 2B show typical performance of these nozzles.
6
An inadequate supply of nozzle pressure and/or flow will cause an ineffective stream and
can result in injury, death or loss of property.

3.2 FLOW CHARACTERISTICS OF TYPHOON
3.3 DETERMINING FLOW WITH PRE-PIPED MONITORS
The Typhoon's nozzle pressure is user adjustable from 80 to 120 PSI (5.5-8.3 BAR, 550-830 KPA). Pressure adjustment is
made by turning a knob, on the front of the nozzle, to the desired pressure setting. The Typhoon will operate at the set
pressure anywhere within its flow range of 600 to 4000 GPM (2300-15000 LPM). Figure 3 shows typical performance of
the Typhoon nozzle.
The simplest procedure to determine flow with automatic nozzles is with a flow meter. If a flow meter is unavailable, then
the flow may be estimated using pressure loss data between the nozzle and an in-line pressure gauge at the pump or
considerably upstream from the nozzle. Data is taken with a smooth bore nozzle and handheld pitot gauge. Note:
Equations assume no substantial change in elevation between in-line pressure gauge and nozzle.
Step1: Determine flow of smooth bore nozzle.
Step 2: Find pressure loss constant.
Flow water with a smooth bore nozzle and record the nozzle's size, pitot pressure and in-line pressure gauge
reading. The smooth bore nozzle's flow is calculated from the Freeman formula:
Where: = 29.71 for English units (GPM, INCHES, PSI)
= .667 for metric units (LPM, MM, BAR) Note: 1 BAR=100 KPA
flow in GPM (or LPM)
exit diameter in INCHES (or MM)
pitot pressure in PSI (or BAR)
Using the results from step 1, use the following equation to calculate the pressure loss constant between the in-line
pressure gauge and the nozzle:
Where: piping pressure loss constant in GPM /PSI (or LPM /BAR)
in-line pressure gauge reading in PSI (or BAR)

Figures 4A and 4B give the stream trajectory for the Master, Monsoon and Typhoon nozzles at various flows.
Notes on trajectory graphs:
• Graphs show approximate effective stream trajectory at 30 degrees elevation in no wind
conditions. Distance to last water drops approximately 10% farther.
• Trajectories shown are for water. The addition of foam is expected to decrease the reach by 10%.
• Tail or head winds of 20 MPH (30 KPH) may increase or decrease the range approximately 30%.

4.0 FLUSHING DEBRIS
Debris in the water may get caught inside the nozzle. This trapped material will cause poor stream quality, shortened
reach and reduced flow. To remove debris trapped in the nozzle:
Shut off flow to the nozzle.
Move the stream shaper to the wide fog position.
Carefully unscrew and remove the nozzle's piston/cylinder.
The cylinder is under about 25 lbs (11Kgf) of spring force. The spring must be
compressed to reinstall.
A long white push rod is part of the cylinder assembly. Pull cylinder straight out until push
rod clears shaft.
The cylinder and piston will come out as a unit.
Remove the small spring and stainless steel poppet from the center of the shaft.
Remove debris.
Reassemble the nozzle.
Figures 5A, 5B & 5C show the pieces that are removed during the flush procedure.

This is a limited warranty. The original purchaser of the equipment, any person to whom it is transferred, and any person
who is an intended or unintended beneficiary of the equipment, shall not be entitled to recover from TFT any
consequential or incidental damages for injury to person and/or property resulting from any defective equipment
manufactured or assembled by TFT. It is agreed and understood that the price stated for the equipment is in part
consideration for limiting TFT's liability. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so the above may not apply to you.
TFT shall have no obligation under this limited warranty if the equipment is, or has been, misused or neglected (including
failure to provide reasonable maintenance) or if there have been accidents to the equipment or if it has been repaired or
altered by someone else.
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
THIS IS A LIMITED EXPRESS WARRANTY ONLY. TFT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO THE
EQUIPMENT ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF ANY NATURE MADE BY TFT BEYOND THAT

5.0 MAINTENANCE
When reassembling the nozzle after repairs or for preventive maintenance, coat the seal on the piston, the inner bore of
the cylinder and the shaft slide surface with a waterproof lubricant such as Dow Corning #44 Silicone Grease. Lubrication
is required to assure continued smooth operation. The frequency of lubrication will depend on frequency of usage and
storage conditions. Nozzles must be checked regularly to assure proper operation. See figures 5A, 5B and 5C for the
nozzle lubrication points.
Contact factory for parts lists and exploded views for particular models. Each nozzle is identified by a serial number
located on the nozzle's stream shaper (see figure 1).
