The 2-1/2″ TurboDraft™ Eductor by Schutte & Koerting provides an effective and innovative solution for remote fire suppression needs. It allows fire companies to tap into distant and previously inaccessible water sources like ponds, streams, and swimming pools up to 250’ away. With the ability to generate water flows up to 264 GPM or more, this TurboDraft™ unit enhances your firefighting capabilities even in the most rural locations.
Operating Principle
The TurboDraft™ Eductor operates on the principle of eductor-driven water movement. Fire flow amounts will vary depending on elevation and hose friction loss. Greater usable flow rates are achievable depending on hose friction loss coefficients or when utilizing a 6” large diameter hose. We recommend conducting field testing to confirm flow rates for each hose configuration.
