may be shortened due to the eff ects of corrosion and is not covered under warranty.
4.0 FLOW CHARACTERISTICS
At each fl ow setting the nozzle is set to a predetermined fi xed orifi ce. Relationship of fl ow and nozzle pressure at each setting is
shown in fi gures 4A and 4B. Contact the factory or visit the website (www.tft.com) for range and trajectory data.

3.3 NOZZLE COUPLINGS
Many inlet couplings such as NH (National Hose) or NPSH (National Pipe Straight Hose) can be specifi ed at time of order.
CAUTION
Nozzle must be mated to a hose line with matched threads. Mismatched or damaged threads may
cause nozzle to leak or uncouple under pressure and could cause injury.
CAUTION
Dissimilar metals coupled together can cause galvanic corrosion that can result in the inability
to unscrew the threads or complete loss of thread engagement over time. Per NFPA 1962, if
dissimilar metals are left coupled together an anti-corrosive lubricant should be applied to the
threads. Also the coupling should be disconnected and inspected at least quarterly.
