Automatic Hand Nozzle Range
An automatic nozzle is a combination firefighting nozzle that contains a spring-loaded baffle. This baffle is able to maintain a specified pressure throughout a wide flow range. This means that as your flow drops, the exit orifice for the nozzle gets smaller and if your flow increases, it gets larger.
