Monitors for Fire brigades
FireDos extinguishing monitors are suitable for firefighting with water or foam and can deliver thousands of litres of water per minute over a distance of more than 150 metres. Thanks to the innovative, flow-optimised Oval-Flat design, there is only minimal pressure loss. This enables the monitors to achieve maximum throwing distance.
- For flow rates from 150 l/min to 60 000 l/min
- Manually or electrically controlled
- Adjustment of the extinguishing agent flow rate during operation

Control systems
All monitors in sizes M1 - M9 can also be operated remotely and are compatible with the FireDos vehicle control system. The FCON control unit provides the perfect interface between the FireDos monitor and your vehicle’s CAN bus control system. It has been designed to give you
maximum control and an overview during operations.
Intuitive control: The brilliant 4.3-inch colour display with its clear user interface allows for easy control of all monitor functions and displays key operating parameters at a glance. Precise positioning: Using the ergonomic joystick, you can move the monitor with pinpoint accuracy and precision to the desired position. Maximum flexibility: Optionally, the monitor can also be controlled via our tried-and-tested radio remote control – for greater freedom of movement and safety during operations.
Optional equipment
Monitor lift
The FireDos monitor lift has been developed to raise monitors of sizes M2–M5 to an elevated working position. It moves the monitor quickly and safely between the compact standby position
and the operational working height to ensure its full range of action. A pneumatic cylinder provides a vertical stroke of 500 mm and utilises the vehicle’s on-board compressed air
supply. The monitor lift can be seamlessly integrated into the FireDos control system.
Swivel unit
Specially developed for FireDos M2 and M3 monitors, the swivel unit ensures rapid, remote-controlled operation. A powerful 24 V DC drive moves the monitor from its compact standby position into the working position and back. Uncompromising reliability under all conditions
is ensured by the integrated emergency control via handwheels.
Folding joint
The folding joint is the perfect solution for integrating manually operated M2 monitors onto vehicles in a space-saving manner and achieving an optimal operating height during use. In the working position, it raises the monitor by approx. 500 mm, which makes operation easier. A secure locking mechanism in both end positions guarantees maximum safety and stability at all times – both whilst driving and during demanding operations.
Removable foam pipe (RFP)
The removable foam pipe (RFP) is available as an option alongside the multi-purpose nozzle (with or without an adjustable agent flow). The removable foam pipe features sturdy handles and can be temporarily fitted and locked in place for foam applications. Due to its shorter overall length, slightly lower foam expansion ratios are achieved than with the permanently installed FP foam pipe.
