Production introduction
foinbo® Foam Tanks for Vertical / Horizontal are purpose - built fire - suppression solutions, crafted to store and dispense foam concentrate for combating flammable liquid fires. Available in vertical (PHYML series) and horizontal (PHYM series) configurations, these tanks offer flexible installation choices, catering to the spatial and capacity needs of industrial, petrochemical, and storage facilities.
Constructed with a robust carbon - steel body, Foam Tanks for Vertical / Horizontal utilize rubber or PVC bladders to separate foam concentrate from water, preserving the concentrate's quality and effectiveness. The SS304 stainless - steel proportioner ensures accurate dosing of concentrate at 3% or 6% ratios, a critical aspect for generating the right foam to smother fires. Operating within a pressure range of 0.8–1.2 Mpa, they adhere to ANSI/BS4504/GB flange standards, enabling seamless integration into existing fire - fighting systems.
Vertical models (PHYML - 100 to PHYML - 5500) span capacities from 100 L to 5500 L, ideal for facilities where vertical space utilization is a priority. Horizontal models (PHYM - 1000 to PHYM - 8000) provide larger storage options, up to 8000 L, and are well - suited for layouts that favor horizontal installation. Flow rates ranging from 4–64 LPS allow these tanks to address both small - scale spills and large - scale industrial fire threats.

FAQ
Q: Can Foam Tanks for Vertical / Horizontal be integrated with automatic fire - detection systems?
A: Yes. They can be connected to automatic systems, so when a fire is detected, the tank can automatically dispense foam concentrate. However, it's crucial to ensure the system components are compatible and properly calibrated.
Q: How does the altitude of the installation site affect the performance of these tanks?
A: At high altitudes, lower atmospheric pressure can impact foam expansion. Adjust the proportioner settings or consult the manufacturer to ensure optimal performance in high - altitude locations.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the bladders in Foam Tanks for Vertical / Horizontal?
A: The lifespan of rubber or PVC bladders typically ranges from 5–10 years, depending on usage, maintenance, and the type of foam concentrate used. Regular inspections can help identify when replacement is needed.
Q: Can these tanks be customized with additional safety features?
A: Yes. Depending on the manufacturer, you can request additional safety features like pressure - relief valves with custom settings, or enhanced monitoring systems for concentrate levels.
Q: How to dispose of old or damaged foam concentrate from these tanks?
A: Dispose of old or damaged concentrate in accordance with local environmental regulations. Contact a licensed hazardous - waste disposal company to ensure proper and safe disposal.
