1. Master Stream Operations
Pre-piped
And
Ground Monitors

2. Objectives Review Strategic and Tactical Applications Friction Loss
Deployment and Operations

3. Master Streams
Used to produce high volume water streams for large fires
Several types
Deck Gun and Portable Monitor
GPM

4. Master Streams Three main uses for a master stream Direct fire attack
Back-up handlines that are already attacking the fire from the exterior
Exposure protection
-Vapor suppression for Haz Mats

5. Placement of the Master Stream
Properly positioned before charging
What are your considerations for placement at for a structure fire application?
There are three basic considerations

6. Placement Close enough to reach the seat of the fire.
Upword angle at which the stream enters the building
Maximum Coverage
Offensive
Defensive

7. Optimal Distance Ground Monitor For every 1’ in vertical height needed
place the monitor 1’ away from intended target
45 Degrees is maximum angle with a desirable stream
Should have ability to reach up to 3 stories
Deck Gun 4 stories
Best angle for penetration is degrees.

8. Optimal Operating Angles for Safety
Generally no lower than 25 degrees
Do not go past the transversing range
Generally there is a set pin
