<p>The delivery system includes a blender assembly which can be fitted within a bucket or other container an aircraft. The blender assembly includes a combiner which receives water from within the container and gel concentrate from a gel inlet. The combiner brings the water and gel concentrate together upstream of a pump. The pump pressurizes and mixes the water and gel concentrate together to provide a hydrated fire suppression gel ready for application. An outlet of the pump leads through appropriate conduits to a nozzle. The nozzle includes a downwardly extending spout which sprays the hydrated gel down onto the ground beneath the aircraft. When the water within the container has been depleted, the aircraft is flown to a water source and the container is refilled. Then the blender can again be used to manufacture and deliver the fire suppression gel to an area to be treated.</p> |
