HEN TURBO-25

Turbocharge the performance of 1.75" and 2.5" hose when using a nozzle with 50 PSI operating pressure. The HEN Turbo-25 yields impressive benefits from higher pressure hose to premium low-pressure hose design.  The HEN Turbo-25 increases back pressure by an additional 25-30 PSI in low pressure handlines using 50 PSI smooth bore nozzles such as HEN BLADE Nozzles. The increased back pressure streamlines hose deployment on the fireground by reducing the amount of “kink chasing” associated with lower hose pressures.

Benefits – Nozzle Position:
•   Low nozzle reaction is unchanged for 50 psi nozzles
•   Achieve proper nozzle pressure faster when calling for water
•   Reduces hose & nozzle whip associated with low pressure nozzles

Benefits - Back-Up Position(s):
•    Entire hose stretch has backpressure from rig discharge to nozzle
•    Backpressure increases mechanical force to knock-out hose kinks in dry line
•    Increased backpressure line is easier to feed, push, advance
•    Reduced kink formation in the entire length of hose stretch

Benefits - Pump Operator:
•   Higher Initial Pump Discharge Pressure (DP) = Less kinks when charging On-Charge
•   Simplifies transfer from on-board water tank to positive water source
•   Less “gating” to maintain correct DPD on individual discharges
•   No impact on pump pressure governor functions
