How long will the Fire-Keg run till it's dry?

Running empty!

When the Keg is full and the (Fire-Foam-500ml.) is added your Keg it will run about 12 to 13 minutes with the foam nozzle and about the same with the brass nozzle. 12 to 13 minutes can buy you some precious time when it comes to putting out a fire.In most cases where you have a volume pump and fire hose to deal with,by the time you prime the pump ,get water to the nozzle,you may as well call the forestry people.The Keg has proved time and time again that first response is the answer to many expensive problems.


Do you make different sizes of Keg's.

Custom tanks all shapes and sizes and many different types of pumps.

With the success of the original Keg,of course there would be the need to come up with tanks and pumps mounted in all different positions for different types of applications. We have meet this criteria,meaning what ever limited space you may have to work with we can come up with the tank and pump combination to get you spraying foam for putting out fires to De-icing walkway's or catwalk's any where you have a saftey concern. Year round use from one product!


Trouble Shooting Your KegŪ

Helpfull Hint's

  • Your pump wont prime ?
  • Make sure all the connections are tight (hand tight)
  • Everything is tight still wont prime?
  • Remove fitting from pump head pour in a little water and your up and running.
  • The pump keeps running?
  • This is a demand pump when your KegŪ is empty the pump will still run trying to prime the line.Disconnect the power when the Keg runs dry.This is a fire prevention product so it's best it is always full and ready to go.
  • How do i fill the Keg from a remote source?
  • Disconnect the power now take the line from the inlet side and connect it to the outlet side.Take the outlet side and connect it to the inlet side (this is your longer hose)take the hose to your source of water apply the screen provided and re-connect your power.When your Keg is full disconnect the power return the lines to their original posistions with the screen back on the inlet hose(the one inside the Keg) add the Fire-TrolŪ 104 500ml. bottle of foam concentrate hook-up your power and your ready to go again.
  • Can I fill a backpack or pump can using the Keg?
  • Yes - Disconnect the power and remove the sprayer now put the hose in the tank or Powerpak you want to fill reconnect the power.Removing the sprayer allows a steady flow of foam product without agitation.Always put the foam concentrate in the water whether it is being used with a foam nozzle or just the sprayer the concentrate makes water wetter and has an absorption quality that can't be matched using water on it's own.
  • How do I keep my KegŪ from freezing?
  • Don't put your Keg away cause fire seasons over we use a product called Magnesium Chloride (ICE-STOP) in the winter this will keep the Keg spraying into the minus 30's.
