MONSOON Structure Protection

Advanced Fire Technologies provides Structure Protection Systems (Monsoon Sprinkler Kits) for the Fire Services and for homeowners living in the Urban Interface areas in the United States. The Monsoon is designed by experienced fire professionals with quality, durability and ease of deployment in mind.

THE GOAL:
The Monsoon Structure Defense Systems are designed with safety and quality in mind. The Monsoon is made in America and designed by active Firefighters. The system was designed as a method to provide better structure defense coverage while alleviating the need for a high manpower count.The fittings on each SPS is designed to be compatible with typical Fire Department fittings, but can also plug right into a local garden hose connection.

SAFETY IS TOP PRIORITY. Currently, many departments and homeowners must remain in harm's way to try to defend structures. Normally, we see a three-man crew and engine trying to defend a home or two.

Now, a three-man crew can rapidly deploy 25 or more Monsoon kits in a very short time. Hook up the water source, and only a few firefighters can provide protection for many structures.

If the situation warrants, the fire crew can evacuate but leave the Monsoon running (provided there is an adequate water source). In the past, evacuation meant no defense for structures. Now with the Monsoon System left running, there is still protection but with no lives at risk.

	Without a Monsoon: Note the fire engine in the lower right corner. With the air crew and ground crew, we have 4 - 8 personnel devoted to saving this one house. What about the other houses in the area? This type of structure defense demands much manpower and puts those firefighters in direct path of the flames.
	ENTER THE MONSOON: A Monsoon Sprinkler Kit has the range and flow to cover 2,500 square feet. With an adequate water supply and a good defensible area, a Monsoon can provide great protection. This frees up fire personnel for other duties and provides safety for those firefighters

An SPS (structure protection sprinkler) is a rugged, heavy-duty sprinkler that is placed on or around a structure threatened by a wildfire. The MONSOON Structure Defense System consists of a series of SPS sprinklers.

• A Monsoon Structure Protection Kit consists of 5 or more individual SPS sprinklers.
• Our Monsoon Structure Protection kits are designed to adequately cover one structure (or a series of close structures) up to 2500 sq. ft.
• For needed protection of over 2500 square feet, you can use additional SPS sprinklers, or additional kits.
• The Monsoon 1000 Kit is available with Five SPS-1000 (1”NPSH) sprinklers, with hose and hardware.
• The Monsoon 750 Kit is available with or four SPS-75 sprinklers and one SPS 750 (all 3/4”GHT), with hose and hardware.
