SnakE® Vegetation Fire Rotary Sprinkler – Tree Mount

✓ Forest, heath and moorland fires in rough terrain
✓ Hillside, steep and mountain areas
✓ Embankment and slope fires along highways and railway lines
✓ Stubble, field and crop fires in agriculture
✓ Mop-up work and cooling of hot spots
✓ Preventing root fires

✓ Holding line with rotary sprinklers in a row
✓ Stopping fire from spreading across firebreaks and paths
✓ Protective line in front of residential areas (wildland-urban interface)
✓ Sectoring large affected areas for parallel work with fewer personnel

✓ Wetting down and keeping warehouses wet
✓ Wetting down and keeping industrial plants wet
✓ Wetting down and keeping house facades and buildings wet
✓ Protecting tank farms, gas stores and chemical plants from radiant heat
✓ Recycling, timber and waste processing sites with a high fire load
✓ Large photovoltaic arrays, battery storage and transformer stations
✓ Wind turbine base areas, pipelines, bridges and tunnel portals
✓ Farms, straw stores, haystacks and stables

✓ Autonomous operation relieves personnel during long-duration incidents and overnight
✓ Distance from the heat zone in case of radiant heat and flying sparks
✓ Safe retreat corridor thanks to a water curtain
✓ Protection of staging areas, catering points and vehicle positions

✓ Major events, fireworks, stage and tent setups as preventive protection
✓ Munitions and contaminated sites where a direct attack is too risky
✓ Drills and training for long-distance water relays
✓ Dust suppression and cooling during heat waves

Our rotary sprinklers are deliberately designed for Storz D (25 mm), the smallest standardized fire department coupling. This is not a design choice but a consequence of the operational profile: vegetation fires mostly occur in steep, trackless terrain, with long distances from the vehicle to the incident scene, often under time pressure and with limited personnel.

A D hose weighs only a fraction of a C (52 mm) or B (75 mm) hose. One person easily carries several lengths plus a rotary sprinkler in a backpack or over the shoulder, even uphill, through undergrowth or across rough terrain. Exactly where heavy C lines fail, the D system gets you further.

• Material: brass
• Nozzle size: 4 mm
• Adjustable sector range: 20°-360°
• Throw: up to 14 m (Ø 28 m)
• Water consumption: approx. 240-1,440 l/h
• Recommended pressure range: 1-4 bar
• Dimensions: approx. 13 × 12 cm
• Weight: approx. 220 g

Flipping the wire lever switches the spray radius from full circle (360°) to part circle (20°-270°).

In part-circle mode, you regulate the size of the sector by adjusting the two wire clips on the pipe section, so the sprinkler waters the segment of the circle you want. As soon as the required water pressure of 2-4 bar is applied, the sprinkler starts to rotate and automatically reverses direction when it reaches the set end points.

The deflector, easily moved by hand, regulates the height of the water jet. The diffuser screw attached to it provides stepless adjustment of the spray width and can also be easily set by hand.
