CDDDC wye
Euro Wildfire Wye CDDDC
This wildfire wye was developed specifically for wildland firefighting. It eases the workload of fire departments during firefighting and mop-up.
Wye with rotary sprinkler
Setup
Like any other wye, the wildfire wye is coupled into the C (52 mm) hose line. Water for firefighting can be drawn from the two D (25 mm) outlets. For mop-up, the sprinkler can be coupled to outlet 4 and then handles the mop-up automatically within the set area (max. 25 m diameter, 25 l/min at 2.5 bar) without tying up personnel.
