1. Fire turret is one of the main equipment for installing fire extinguishing agent for high-level injection of fire extinguishing agent. Its structural design should meet the requirements of normal operation and use of fire extinguisher, and it shall not affect the conventional actions such as left and right rotation or pitching of fire extinguisher.

2. The equipment should be provided with fire extinguishing agent, hydraulic oil, steam, power supply and other pipelines matching the fire monitor. The diameter, strength and tightness of the equipment should meet the system design requirements. The water inlet pipeline should be provided with a filtering device to facilitate the cleaning of debris.

3. Usually installed outdoors, it is easy to rust, and should have good corrosion resistance, and can withstand the reaction forces of wind, rain and snow in the natural environment and fire cannon spraying. Its structural strength should be able to withstand both wind and fire in the place of use. Artillery reaction.

4. Under normal circumstances, there are dual platforms, with foam cannons installed on the upper platform and water cannons installed on the lower platform; there are also three platforms (or multiple platforms), foam cannons installed on the upper platform, water cannons installed on the middle platform, and dry powder cannons installed on the lower platform. This is mainly determined by the respective spray characteristics of different fire extinguishing agents such as foam, water, and dry powder, as well as the long barrel of the foam gun. In order to ensure the spray effect of the foam cannon, it is advantageous and necessary to place it on the upper platform. It is precisely because the barrel of the foam cannon is relatively long that its elevation and depression angles are both large, and it is difficult to install it on the lower platform with a small height interval, so it needs to be installed on the upper platform.

5. Outdoor fire turrets are generally located close to the fire field and are susceptible to natural disasters. In order to facilitate operation and ensure that personnel do not receive injuries, lightning protection devices and protective railings should be set up to reduce fire and lightning strikes on the turret itself. And the damage to the equipment installed on the turret, it is also necessary to set a water curtain device for self protection. The total flow of the protected water curtain should not be less than 6L / S.
