Fire water monitor is an important part of a sprinkler system. In this study, the jet flow characteristics of the external jet of the fire water monitor are studied. The water jet system is used to launch the water jet experiment under six pressures. A high-speed camera is used to obtain the water jet images. The feature extraction of water jet is obtained based on image processing technology, and it is used to study the jet diffusion angle and bundling of the fire water monitor under different pressures. The results of this study show that the jet pressure is an important parameter, which has a great influence on the cluster and surface characteristics of the jet. The fire water monitor has a limited range of pressure. When the pressure is constant, the jet distance determines the size of the air acting on water column, so the cluster and surface characteristics of the water column have changed obviously with the jet distance.
