Products Description
Q: What is AFFF Foam Liquid Concentrate 6%?
AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam) 6% concentrate is a firefighting foam used primarily for extinguishing Class B fires (flammable liquids such as gasoline, oil, and jet fuel). It works by forming an aqueous film that suppresses vapor and cools the fuel surface.
Q: How is AFFF Foam Liquid Concentrate 6% used?
The 6% concentrate is typically mixed with water at a 6:94 ratio (6 parts concentrate to 94 parts water) through a foam proportioning system. The solution is then applied using foam nozzles or monitors.
Q: What types of fires can AFFF Foam Liquid Concentrate 6% extinguish?
Class B fires: Flammable and combustible liquid fires (e.g., petroleum, alcohol).
Not suitable for: Class A (ordinary combustibles) or Class C (electrical) fires without additives.
Q: How does AFFF work?
AFFF forms a thin aqueous film on the surface of flammable liquids, which:
Suppresses flammable vapors,
Cools the fuel,
Prevents re-ignition.
Surfactants and fluorochemical agents aid in spreading the film quickly over fuel surfaces.
Q: What is the shelf life of AFFF 6% concentrate?
Typically, AFFF 6% concentrate has a shelf life of 10 years when stored properly in original, sealed containers under recommended conditions (cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight).
