What is a Firefighting Foam Eductor?
An eductor is a piece of equipment that introduces foam concentrate into your water stream. In the device, water enters an inlet and moves through a tapered section. It then moves through a small orifice and into a bigger chamber to create a low-pressure area within the large chamber. A metering valve opens and the higher atmospheric pressure outside of the large chamber pushes your concentrate into the chamber. This concentrate then mixes with the water exiting from the lower pressure area, or Venturi.
How Does an In-Line Foam Eductor Work?
Once your water and concentrate mix, it is considered a foam solution. This solution then travels out of the tapered section at the end of your eductor for discharge.
