Viking 20" Grooved Grate Trench Nozzle for Fire Systems

The Viking 20" Grooved Grate Trench Nozzle is an advanced fire protection component engineered to provide rapid, targeted fire suppression in demanding industrial and commercial environments. This robust assembly is ideal for fire safety professionals, contractors, engineers, and facility managers seeking to enhance fire safety strategies in locations such as warehouses, manufacturing plants, and large public facilities. Its design allows for seamless integration into existing fire sprinkler systems, offering a critical advantage for protecting high-risk areas like aircraft hangars and helipads where flammable liquid spills are a primary concern.

• Precision Coverage and Directional Control: Available in multiple configurations including 90°, 180°, and 360° spray patterns, allowing for targeted water or foam discharge to achieve comprehensive coverage and effective fire control across diverse trench and piping layouts. This adaptability helps address fire hazards at the floor level where flammable liquid spills typically occur.
• Robust, Industrial-Grade Construction: Manufactured from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials, featuring 316L stainless steel for the nozzle and ductile iron for the grate. These materials ensure durability in harsh environments and prolonged operational use. The assembly is designed to withstand a direct load of up to 350 PSI, capable of supporting the weight of an airplane parked over it.
• Efficient 2-inch Grooved Connection: The specialized grooved design facilitates fast and secure installation, simplifying routine maintenance and significantly reducing system downtime and labor costs. Grooved connections are known for their reliability and ease of use in fire protection systems.
• Optimized Flow Dynamics: Engineered for superior hydraulic performance, this assembly promotes uniform water or foam flow and maximizes pressure, accelerating fire suppression response times for critical situations.
• Integrated Operational Features: Includes user-friendly controls for precise flow regulation and system testing, ensuring peak operational readiness without requiring complex disassembly.
• Reliable Compatibility: Designed to fit seamlessly within existing fire protection trenches or standard grooved pipe systems, enabling flexible system design and easy upgrades. The grate itself is specifically engineered to receive the nozzle and act as a trench drain cover.

By incorporating these Viking grate nozzle assemblies into your fire protection setup, you invest in a long-term solution that minimizes risk and enhances overall safety. The streamlined structure and dependable performance ensure compliance with rigorous safety codes while protecting critical assets and lives. The Viking trench nozzle effectively discharges foam solution directly at the floor level, directly addressing flammable liquid spills where they occur, often more quickly than overhead systems. This direct application helps to reduce potential property damage and significantly boosts safety by efficiently delivering extinguishing agents to the source of the fire. Foam-based systems are particularly effective for flammable liquids as they blanket the liquid surface, inhibit vapor release, and provide a cooling effect, preventing re-ignition.
