2.0 SAFETY
WARNING
This equipment is intended for use by trained personnel for fi refi ghting. Their use for other
purposes may involve hazards not addressed by this manual. Seek appropriate guidance and
training to reduce risk of injury.
WARNING
Injury can occur from an inadequately supported nozzle. The mounting must be capable of
supporting the nozzle reaction force which can be in excess of 60 LBS (100 GPM at 110 PSI).
WARNING
Some volatile liquids can be ignited by static discharge. Static build-up can occur from:
• Electrochemical separation of charge as water drains through low conductivity, refi ned
products.
• Applying foam over a low conductivity liquid of suffi
cient depth to retain the charge created as
the foam blanket drains.
• Streaming currents as water or foam is introduced into the storage tank.

WARNING
Water is a conductor of electricity. Application of water solutions on high voltage equipment can
cause injury or death by electrocution. The amount of current that may be carried back to the
nozzle will depend on the following factors:
• Voltage of the line or equipment
• Distance from the nozzle to the line or equipment
• Size of the stream
• Whether the stream is solid or broken
• Purity of the water

CAUTION
The nozzle may become damaged if allowed to freeze while containing water. Always drain after
use to avoid damage and possible loss of use.
NOTICE
To prevent mechanical damage, do not drop or throw equipment.

3.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
Task Force Tips ER Bubble Cup nozzles have a clean far reaching dual fl ow straight and fog pattern that is designed exclusively for
use with the EF1 monitor. The nozzle stream is adjustable from off (closed), to low fl ow straight stream, high fl ow straight stream,
and fog. The off position may eliminate the need for a downstream valve. The rugged construction is compatible with the use of fresh
water as well as fi re fi ghting foam solutions. The nozzles are constructed of hard anodized aluminum, stainless steel, rubber, and
engineering grade polymers. The ER Bubble Cup nozzles provide reach and adjustable foam aspiration when the aspirating sleeve
is extended.
