If you are looking for flexibility and efficiency in your fixed monitor, the Flex monitor has you covered.

Flex is a compact and efficient deck mounted masterstream monitor that can flow 1250 - 2000 GPM (4750 - 7600 LPM). The unique articulating waterway provides you with outstanding stream quality and minimal friction loss for better reach and impact.

Unique Waterway Design

One of the unique features of the Flex monitor is the limited number of bends and curves in the waterway. In a traditional fixed monitor, the water is forced to navigate multiple bends, increasing turbulence and friction loss. This friction loss adds stress to your pump and lowers your stream velocity on exit. Flex limits this issue by making the waterway as straightforward as possible using a waterway design that is already successful with our Hemisphere and Blitzfire portable monitors!

In ideal conditions, meaning the waterway is in its straightest position, the Flex can see friction loss as low as 4 PSI at 2000 GPM (7600 LPM)! This is significantly lower than other monitors on the market.

Choose Your Flow Rate

The Flex gives you flow rates from 1250 – 2000 GPM (4750 – 7600 LPM). This gives you the ability to pick your flow and keep the compact size and unique features.

Compact Size

If you need a compact monitor to fit in your dunnage, aerial ladder, or anywhere else, Flex is your answer. Flex features a 16” stow height and 6” swing radius making it easy to fit in tight spaces.

Do More with the Flex App

Flex is the first TFT monitor to include an app capable of programming and updating the unit.

Programming

With the Flex app, you can program your monitor, copy programming from one monitor and program another with it, set hard stops, and program your controller buttons. The app simplifies the process and means you do not need to rely on flashing lights or external drives for initial setup or changes to your monitor.

Updates

Software updates for Flex are managed through the Flex app, making the update process easier than ever before. Your crew only needs to open the app, check for updates, and choose when to push them. No fussing at the monitor or opening it up needed.

A New Controller Design

RC versions of Flex bring a new controller design to your hands. Fully programmable, the new controller allows you to decide what each button should be programmed to do. Programming takes minutes and does not require you to remove panels or access any electronic components.

Inside, the electronics are fully enclosed and insulated from water and impact.

Upgradability

If you bought a manual version of Flex and want to upgrade or realize that you would prefer a manual over the RC version you bought, you can change! You can even change your flow rate if you need to.
