A fire suppression system for a gas turbine engine includes a fire suppressant delivery circuit, a first nozzle and a multi-directional nozzle. The fire suppressant delivery circuit includes and extends between an upstream inlet and a downstream distal end. The first nozzle is fluidly coupled with the fire suppressant delivery circuit and is disposed at the downstream distal end. The multi-directional nozzle is fluidly coupled with the fire suppressant delivery circuit and is configured serially inline between the upstream inlet and the first nozzle.

Fire suppression system with multi-directional pass through nozzle

A multi-directional fire extinguishing nozzle is disclosed. The multi-directional fire extinguishing nozzle may comprise a pylon fitting configured to receive a fire extinguishing agent. The multi-directional fire extinguishing nozzle may comprise a hose fitting coupled to the pylon fitting via a coupling nut. The multi-directional fire extinguishing nozzle may comprise a plurality of fluid distribution outlets configured to deliver the fire extinguishing agent. The fluid distribution outlets may define voids on the surface of the coupling nut, and extending through the coupling nut and the hose fitting.
