Elkhart Brass Introduces New, Improved XD Intake

Introducing the new, improved XD Intake! The XD Intake Model 1902 by Elkhart Brass is a nod to our founding year and a century-plus of innovation. This heavy-duty valve, engineered to regulate water supply intake to your pump, combines a robust design with cutting-edge technology. The Model 1902 symbolizes our enduring legacy and commitment to advancing firefighting equipment.

The XD Intake comes in both Low Profile and Straight configurations, and left-hand or right-hand mounted control wheel locations to suit any fire truck pump panel layout, ensuring that versatility meets functionality. The top-positioned indicator guarantees optimal visibility, allowing firefighters to quickly assess the valve position status in any situation. It's built to last, with three layers of superior corrosion resistance, including Mil Spec Hard Coat, Zinc, and Powder Coating, ensuring it withstands the harshest conditions. 

The XD Intake stands out for its ability to minimize pressure loss during crucial high flow rates, ensuring firefighters have a swift and reliable water supply. With a maximum flow capacity of 3000 gallons per minute (gpm) and a generous minimum waterway size of 5.12 inches (133 mm), it guarantees optimal flow efficiency, even under demanding circumstances. Engineered for maximum efficiency, this valve delivers superior performance in water delivery operations on the fire ground, making it an indispensable asset for firefighting operations.
