Introduction
The collecting head PN 16 is primarily intended for use during firefighting operations to connect one or
more lines of hose.
The dividing breeching PN 16 with outlet valves is primarily intended for use during firefighting
operations to divide one or more inlets into two or more outlets and fight the fire with more than one
branchpipe.
