Master stream
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A master stream is a fire service term for a water stream of 350 gallons per minute (1,320 lpm) or greater.
Master streams are often found at the end of aerial ladders, tele-squirt nozzles, or monitor nozzles. The high amount of required pressure makes them unsuitable for handline use.
