Elkhart eductors Deerfield Beach trucks. Eductor psi rated capacity. Nozzle gpm/psi Max hose lay Effective reach Friction loss 1.5 and 2.5
200psi 95gpm/100psi nozzle Nozzle must match flow of the eductor If pumping less than rated 200psi you will have higher percentage of foam. Visa versa. Nozzle must be fully open 12-15 second delay once inserting into concentrate Add 5psi per 10ft elevation Max hose lay 250ft Effective reach 99ft 1.5 equals 22psi friction loss 2.5 equals 2psi friction loss
ProPak 2.5 gallon concentrate 12gpm flow

2inch 150ft 75/250 PDP 93psi, 250ft 75/175 PDP 105psi
Trash line 100ft PDP 95psi
Solid bore handline PSI
50 psi
Solid bore master stream PSI
80 psi
Fog master stream PSI
100 psi
Piercing nozzle PSI
100 psi
Formula for PDP
Nozzle pressure + friction loss + elevation + standpipe + fdc connection = total pump discharge pressure
Elevation PSI
Floor -1 x 5= elevation loss psi
Ex 4 floor fire= (4-1) x5=15 psi
Standpipe FDC psi friction loss
10psi ONLY when greater than 350gpm
Aerial PSI friction loss
25psi
Standpipe riser PSI
25psi
