Solo power

Shannon Plant (south west) has
introduced the latest addition to its
Solo range.

The Solo Firehose is designed to
be used in industrial fires where
there is a risk of exploding gas
bottles and pressure containers.

Operated from a distance of up to
200m the solo fire monitor can be
connected to a standard fire hose
and driven remotely into position.

When the water or foam is turned
on it can be moved and positioned
to give a steady flow with the
operator keeping a safe distance. The
solo fire monitor engine can be started
and stopped remotely allowing the
operator to leave it in position and
attend to other emergencies.
