Product Technical Overview
SKUM MLR-40 A Foam Nozzle
The SKUM MLR-40 A Foam Nozzle is a portable low-expansion foam branchpipe designed for firefighting applications involving flammable liquid spills and suitable small fires. Its hand-held design allows trained operators to direct foam towards the target area while balancing foam application and jet reach.
The SKUM MLR-40 A is part of the SKUM MLR low-expansion foam branchpipe range. According to the manufacturer's published datasheet, it has a stainless-steel body and brass nozzle. The standard documented configurations include a 200 L/min version operating at 5 bar and a 400 L/min version operating at 5 bar. Other flow and pressure combinations are also listed.
This model is the standard, non-self-inducing version. It should not be confused with the MLR-40 SA, which includes a foam concentrate pick-up arrangement. The correct version depends on whether the firefighting system supplies premixed foam solution or requires the nozzle to draw concentrate.
Key Features
1. Portable Hand-Held Design
The MLR-40 A is designed for portable foam application. Its hand-held configuration supports directed discharge during compatible firefighting operations, including applications involving flammable liquid spills and suitable small fires.
2. Stainless-Steel Body
The published product documentation specifies a stainless-steel pipe body. This construction is intended for professional firefighting equipment, although maintenance and inspection should follow the manufacturer's instructions.
3. Brass Nozzle
The documented MLR-40 A configuration uses a brass nozzle. Confirm the exact supplied model and construction details against the current product documentation.
4. Multiple Flow Configurations
The MLR-40 A range includes different flow rates and pressure combinations, enabling selection according to the system design and available water supply.
Published configurations include:
- 200 L/min at 5 bar
- 215 L/min at 3 bar
- 215 L/min at 6 bar
- 400 L/min at 3 bar
- 400 L/min at 5 bar
- 400 L/min at 6 bar
The selected product code must be checked before these values are assigned to a specific item.
5. Low-Expansion Foam Production
The manufacturer lists a foam expansion ratio of up to approximately 1:15 for the MLR-40 A and MLR-40 SA branchpipes. Actual performance depends on the foam concentrate, water supply, operating conditions, and equipment configuration.
6. Standard Connection
The documented connection is a 1½-inch female BSP thread, with optional hose couplings available for different connection requirements. Verify the actual connection supplied before purchase.

Applications
Depending on the fire protection system design, the SKUM MLR-40 A may be suitable for:
- Flammable liquid spill coverage
- Suitable small-fire applications
- Industrial firefighting operations
- Facilities requiring portable foam application equipment
- Indoor and outdoor firefighting operations where the equipment is appropriate
- Fire and rescue operations using compatible foam systems
The nozzle should only be used for applications supported by the manufacturer's documentation and the approved fire protection system design.
How to Select the Correct MLR-40 A Configuration
Confirm the Flow Rate
Determine whether the application requires the 200 L/min, 215 L/min, or 400 L/min configuration. The required flow rate must match the water supply and system design.
Check Operating Pressure
Confirm the pressure specified for the selected product code. Flow rate, jet reach, and reaction force vary with operating pressure.
Verify the Connection
Check the inlet thread or coupling standard before connecting the branchpipe to existing hoses and firefighting equipment.
Check the Foam Supply Arrangement
The MLR-40 A is the standard non-self-inducing version. Confirm that the firefighting system supplies foam solution using a compatible proportioning arrangement. If the application requires concentrate induction at the nozzle, enquire about the MLR-40 SA instead.
Confirm the Product Code
Request the manufacturer's product code and datasheet to ensure that the delivered model matches the required flow rate, operating pressure, and connection.
