Quick fire response
The Unitor XFlow® mobile water monitor is easy to
carry and can be quickly assembled and operated
by one crew member. One waterway connection
means fast response time from alarm to operation
as crew only needs to roll out one hose. Hydrant
adaptors are available to meet customer demands.
The monitor has a dual purpose nozzle for spray
and jet functionality. That combined with an easy
elevation feature ensure precise and efficient fire
suppression. With nominal nozzle pressure of 4 bar,
the throwing distance is 40 m and the monitor can
protect up to 10 tiers of containers, and even more
at higher pressure.
Based on the proven XFlow ® technology, the low
pressure water monitor is developed with large
bores to avoid clogging. In addition, low water
requirements can save on extra installation costs
linked to higher water supply demand. This makes
the water monitor reliable and cost effi cient. The
monitor is fi tted with legs to ensure stability, and can
operate as long as needed unattended.
Easy to use
The Unitor XFlow® water mist lance and its equipment
comes in a practical tool case for easy storage and
use. For fast fire response, the lance kit is equipped
with a drill to penetrate the container wall quickly
and safely, even during rolling and pitching at sea.
Both the drill and the lance can be operated by one
crew member and are fitted with an extension to
protect the operator from the hot surface.
The lance is designed and tested for optimised fire
fighting based on guidelines from a leading fire
laboratory in Norway to ensure efficient cooling
and oxygen depletion to suppress the fire. The
lance is developed with a holder that enables it to
be left unattended in operation allowing crew to
focus on other tasks.

Product description
In case of fi re in a container, the water mist lance
and the water monitor can be used together or
independently.
The water mist lance tool case contains a battery
operated drill, a fi re hose and the lance itself. The
equipment can easily be carried, mounted and
operated by one person. The lance is connected
to the fi re main using the hose in the tool case, and
water is released by pushing the valve handle.
With the drill, it is easy and fast to drill a hole in the
container wall, preferably quite high up on the wall.
The lance is then inserted in the hole, and the groove
in the fixing sleeve fastens in the container wall.
The lance can then operate unattended as long as
needed.
adjusted by a turning wheel, from 0° to 90°, and the
direction is set by turning the monitor. The monitor
stays stable by itself, and can operate as long as
needed.
The water monitor is easy to carry and assemble
by one single person. After assembly, the monitor
can be placed on deck or other horizontal surface
without any straps or fastening devises. It is
however fi tted with a strap that can be used if the
ship is rolling or pitching in heavy seas. The monitor
is connected to the fi re main with a standard fi re
hose, and starts operating as soon as the hydrant
valve is opened. The angle of the water jet is easily
