ELKHART BRASS has introduced the HERO Pipe high-rise system, designed to address the unique challenges of fires in skyscrapers and tall buildings beyond the reach of ladder trucks. The system enables firefighters to deliver a high volume of water at the point of attack from the exterior of the floor below. It can be set up for action in as little as three minutes with a two-person team. Once the proper attack points have been determined, the aluminum manifold is secured to the exterior of the floor below the incident. The telescopic waterway is made of anodized aluminum and is capable of delivering large volumes of water. Combined with Elkhart’s Sidewinder EXM monitor, a targeted stream can be directed by remote control.
