Production introduction
foinbo® 4-Way Breeching Inlet Connection serves as a pivotal hub in fire protection systems, enabling the simultaneous distribution of water to multiple firefighting appliances or hoses from a single supply line. Designed for versatility and efficiency, this connection is indispensable in large-scale or complex environments where rapid and coordinated firefighting efforts are essential.
The 4-Way Breeching Inlet features four independent outlets, typically fitted with 2.5-inch or 3-inch couplings (e.g., NST, BS 336, Storz, or Instantaneous). This design allows firefighters to connect multiple hoses, monitors, or branch pipes, directing water flow to different areas or angles of a fire scene.
A robust ball or gate valve at the inlet's core controls the main water supply. This valve ensures operators can shut off or regulate water flow to the entire system, providing critical control during emergencies or maintenance.
Each outlet is equipped with a non-return valve to prevent backflow, ensuring water flows only in the intended direction. This safeguards the integrity of the water supply and prevents contamination or pressure drops.
