HEN Logo | Dinges Fire Company

Dinges Fire Company is pleased to be partnering with HEN Nozzles for innovative new solutions for waterflow!  HEN’s patented technology uses fundamentals of fluid dynamics and thermal management to create high efficiency firefighting nozzles. They are designed to allow the firefighter to alter the solid stream into a wide in-line blade pattern while minimizing the disruption of the thermal balance. Whether it’s an aggressive interior attack on a structure fire, or progressive wildland hose lead, HEN’S Superior Water Placement suppresses fire faster, leading to a reduction in water usage.

Structural fires pose a significant threat to both property and human life. HEN has engineered a nozzle that enhances firefighter efficiency and effectiveness when tackling structural fires. With advanced stream technology, HEN nozzles deliver precise and powerful streams that improve fire suppression and safety within buildings. The unique Blade pattern of HEN nozzles ensures rapid knockdowns and reduces water waste, making them an invaluable tool in structural firefighting.

Why Choose HEN Nozzles for Structural Fires?

  • Rapid Fire Suppression – HENs adjustable smoothbore nozzles provide traditional solid streams to wide blade streams for enhanced coverage and rapid suppression. HEN puts the choice in the firefighters’ hands. Ease of application and rapid control of today’s fires is a must for successful suppression, HEN nozzles supply all of that.
  • Enhanced Safety – HENs blade stream reduces firefighter operational fatigue through increased stream coverage. The blades increased coverage area requires less nozzle movement to obtain. Using an up and down or a side-to-side nozzle technique is less taxing on firefighters while providing a more stable nozzle reaction.
  • Blade Stream – The full blade provides a wide linear stream with a concentrated leading edge of water. This provides extended coverage of the fire area for rapid suppression. The blade stream will increase your fireground effectiveness.
  • Durable & Reliable – Built with high-quality materials, HEN nozzles are durable and reliable, ensuring consistent performance even under extreme conditions. This reliability is essential for maintaining effective fire suppression during critical moments. This attention to durability in design will ensure a long lifespan, backed by a 5-year warranty.

Wildland fires are very destructive and dangerous for the public and for firefighters. HEN has designed a nozzle that improves firefighter efficiency and effectiveness when suppressing wildland fires. Suppression efficiency is paramount for wildland operation, HEN’s blade pattern applies a concentrated linear stream increasing suppression over a broader area. The Blade pattern is enabling crews to get quicker knockdowns with less effort and fatigue while saving precious water resources.

Why Choose HEN Nozzles for Wildland Fire?

  • Increased Stream Effectiveness – HENs wide blade stream places a concentrated edge of water on the fire allowing firefighters to map their coverage area more quickly. The wide blade stream increases firefighter safety by creating a wet corridor of travel in a single pass of the nozzle. The tight stream, concentrates water and increases reach, to suppresses deep seated and distant burning materials with a powerful solid stream of water.
  • Reduced Water Usage – The blades wide linear shape and concentrated stream edge provides an expanded coverage area of suppression. This reduces the amount of water previously used for similar mapping. The blade stream provides high efficiency in both coverage and water usage. Reducing the amount of water required for an area of suppression is a goal of HEN nozzles.
  • Increased Functionality – Having a nozzle that provides a tight solid stream and a wide linear stream increases functionality. The firefighter rotates the outer barrel of the nozzle less than a quarter turn to go from solid stream to wide blade. This allows the firefighter to adjust their stream quickly and easily for emergent needs increasing their safety and the efficiency of the water used.
  • Advanced Stream Technology – Hen Nozzles are all adjustable smooth bore nozzles. This is the first major stream development in generations of firefighters. The traditional smoothbore stream is hard hitting and concentrated. It is paired with a blade stream that is adjustable in width, liner in shape with a concentrated edge of water. The blade provides increased coverage and improved efficiency in the wildland environment.
