ABSTRACT:
A portable, pallet-mountable, remotely controlled deluge system provides a means for rapidly delivering a large quantity of a liquid to a region of hazardous materials or a fire. An accumulator, mounted, for example, on a pallet is charged with a quantity of water, aqueous film-forming foam, or other liquid quenching agent. The liquid is pressurized with an inert gas and the liquid is held in the accumulator by an electric/hydraulic valve. The valve is connected to a control panel which is wired to a remote control. The control panel also includes an antenna to receive a remote control signal by electromagnetic communication. The system provides a method of quickly getting a fire-fighting liquid or a deluging liquid to a scene of a fire or a hazardous waste spill without subjecting personnel to the hazard.
