Summary: The CrossFire monitor delivers a knockout punch of up to 1,250 GPM while offering the flexibility to switch between deck-mounted and portable ground use. With its intuitive setup, integrated safety features, and robust flow capabilities, it’s built for aggressive fireground performance and quick deployment when every second counts.
Why the CrossFire Monitor Hits Harder Than You Think
When you need serious water on a serious fire, the CrossFire doesn’t pull punches. This monitor is the go-to for departments that demand both brute force and flexibility in one package. Think of it as your knockout punch: deck gun power with ground game mobility.
Dual Mode: Deck-Mounted Muscle Meets Portable Precision
The beauty of the CrossFire is its adaptability. One minute it’s locked into place as a deck-mounted gun; the next, it’s on the ground, hammering flames with 1,250 GPM. That kind of flexibility means you’re never boxed in by your rig’s position or terrain.
Built to Flow Heavy—and Stay Put
With a 3.25" waterway and support for both smooth bore and fog nozzles, the CrossFire doesn’t just move water, it shoves it. But all that flow means nothing if the base won’t hold. That’s where the Safe-Tak™ 1250 Base comes in. It locks down with spring-loaded stainless steel legs, carbide spikes, and a clutch anchor strap, making sure your monitor doesn’t walk when the pressure cranks up.
Automatic Safety Valve
If things go sideways, the Safe-Tak safety valve cuts the flow by 90%, minimizing movement and protecting your crew.
Quick to Deploy, Easy to Adjust
From the leg lock knob to the elevation handwheel, everything on the CrossFire is built for speed and precision. Want to hit a third-floor window? Use the 90-degree vertical range and lock it in. Need a higher angle? Pair it with the Extend-A-Gun™ to clear fences, cars, or brush.
Real-Time Pressure Monitoring
The built-in gauge keeps you dialed in so you're not guessing at your stream’s performance.
Nozzle Options and Drainage
Swap between fog and smooth bore nozzles fast. After the job, the auto drain system helps you reset and roll out quicker.
Why It’s a Game-Changer for Portable Ops
Portable monitors usually come with compromises: low flow, sketchy stability, slow setup. The CrossFire kills all three problems:
-
Flow: Up to 1,250 GPM
-
Stability: Carbide-tipped legs, clappered inlets, anchor strap
-
Speed: Folding legs, carry handles, tool-free deployment
The LDH inlet option means you can feed it directly from a large-diameter hose at the ground level, a rare feature for portable monitors.
Bottom Line: Ultimate Flexibility
Seeing is believing. If you haven’t felt what two CrossFires can do at full blast, you’re missing out. This isn’t just another monitor—it’s a knockout punch with control.
