F3 foam nozzle for fluorine-free firefighting foam

The F3 foam nozzle is specially designed for cooling and extinguishing with extinguishing foam for local applications, such as truck transfer stations. There are several fire scenarios to be considered for these applications. Truck transfer stations are used to load and unload (flammable) liquids with a risk of leakage. Additionally, these stations are usually located near storage tanks and pumping installations for these liquids, so there is a risk of a fire starting.

If a fire occurs in the vicinity of the loading station an effective cooling system is required to cool the trucks. In the event of a fire in the loading station itself it is necessary to extinguish this liquid fire with foam.

Applications

  • In the event of fire in the vicinity of the loading station, an effective cooling system is required to cool the tankers;
  • In the event of a fire in the loading station itself, it is necessary to extinguish this liquid fire with foam.

You can use the F3 foam sprayer to cool and extinguish.

ADVANTAGES OF THE F3 FOAM SPRAYER

We have developed a nozzle for cooling and extinguishing with extinguishing foam for local applications.  The standard sprinkler is usually designed to be installed above the area of interest this results in an area coverage system. The F3 nozzle has a relatively large throw distance and does therefore not require to be installed directly above the area that needs to be protected. The nozzle is directional (can be pointed) and has a strong momentum to throw the water and or foam towards the object to be protected. It has a solid cone spray pattern for cooling and does create an expansion rate that is ideal for (fluorine free) foam systems.

FLUORINE-FREE EXTINGUISHING FOAM

When using fluorine-free extinguishing foam concentrates, the expansion rate is very important. It is generally assumed that an expansion factor of at least 4 is required to be able to extinguish effectively. This means that 1 liter of water-foam mixture should become 4 liters of expanded foam.
