ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an apparatus and method for penetrating a titanium walled enclosure to dispense a fire fighting agent within the enclosure. A penetrating device is attached to the forward end of a rotatable barrel, providing for penetration of the titanium wall of an enclosure and insertion of the forward end of the barrel through the titanium wall. The rotatable barrel is mechanically coupled to a controllable actuating device, such as a motor. The actuating device is used to rotate the barrel, thereby driving the penetrating device to penetrate into the enclosure, allowing insertion of the penetrating device and the forward end of the rotatable barrel into the enclosure. Fire fighting fluid is dispensed into the enclosure through a fluid channel in the barrel.
