Standard 64mm affair for monitors I would imagine? Or are you after the specs of the nozzle?

As for the no. of 'Discharges' (sounds like you should go to the doctors about that) SAMFS pumps these days seem to have the standard 4 Deliveries, with 4 Collectors, either stand alone or adapted off the 100mm (?) inlet, with a separate Tank Fill inlet.

Mostly 2 in, single nozzle. (Specs vary on exact brand and capabilities of individual Monitor.)

I think the average would be about 1000lpm though on an mfs pumper?

It depends, your standard Akron Apollo Monitor (pretty common across Aus) works at about 3000lpm as a ground monitor or 4800lpm as a deck gun.

I believe most MFS monitors are a TFT Crossfire, 1250gpm or 4800Lpm. They have are mounted on a telescopic extension called an Extenda Gun (TFT also).

Most ground monitors will range anywhere between 1250-2000lpm and on top your looking at least 3000lpm+. Some are single 64mm feed some are two and to get a good flow on your deck gun you will need at least 2 good feeds to maintain a good flow.

All newer SAMFS appliances are 4 in and 4 out, the 4 in come off of the 140mm suction inlet which needs to be removed whilst draughting.
