Swivel Detent Elbow
The swiveling detent elbow allows you to rotate your intake valve 360-degrees. This lets you put the valve into the position that best meets your needs. This feature allows you to:
-
Simplify LDH connections
-
Optimize connection direction to keep roadways clear
-
Allow LDH to work and twist itself out when you pressurize the line
-
Store easily behind a roll up door
Roll Up Doors
Many fire apparatus now have roll up doors to protect equipment. Finding an intake valve that can fit behind those doors can be tricky.
Our Jumbo Low Profile Ball Intake Valve has a swiveling elbow that allows you to store the intake valve in a truly low-profile manner. This makes it more likely to fit behind your roll up door.
Remote Control Options
Some departments opt for a manual intake valve, and it works very well for departments that wish to do so. The example in this video features an electric option. This allows operators to control the valve from the pump panel using the control pad.
