Production introduction
Available in two models-FP 3% (-16℃) and FP 6% (-20℃)-the Fluoroprotein Foam Concentrate For Firefighting ensures dependable operation in low - temperature environments. Both models present as dark brownish liquids, with pH levels (ranging from 6.8 to 7.2) optimized for stability during storage and deployment. With a viscosity of ≤30 MPas at 20℃, the concentrate flows smoothly through firefighting systems, enabling consistent foam production.
Key performance indicators underscore its effectiveness: The FP 3% model has an expansion ratio of 6.8±1 and a 25% drainage time of 5.7(1±20%) min. The FP 6% variant features an expansion ratio of 7.1±1 and a 25% drainage time of 5.5(1±20%) min. These characteristics ensure a long - lasting foam layer that effectively smothers flames. Moreover, freezing points of -16℃ (for FP 3%) and -20℃ (for FP 6%) allow deployment in regions with harsh winter conditions, where traditional foams may not function.
In scenarios ranging from refineries to chemical processing plants, the Fluoroprotein Foam Concentrate For Firefighting provides consistent, life - saving fire suppression. Its ability to adapt to cold climates, optimal flow dynamics, and persistent foam formation make it an essential part of fire - safety systems. It safeguards assets and lives by rapidly neutralizing flammable liquid fires.

Products Description
FAQ
Q: Is the Fluoroprotein Foam Concentrate For Firefighting suitable for use in underground storage tank fires?
A: Yes, it can be used for underground storage tank fires. However, special attention should be paid to ensuring proper foam distribution in the confined space. It may be necessary to adjust the application equipment and pressure to achieve effective fire suppression.
Q: How does the presence of contaminants in the water used to mix the concentrate affect its performance?
A: Contaminants in the water, such as heavy metals or high levels of minerals, can impact the foam's quality. It may reduce the expansion ratio or drainage time. Use clean, filtered water whenever possible, and test the mixture if the water quality is questionable.
Q: Can this foam concentrate be used in combination with dry chemical fire suppressants?
A: In general, it is not recommended to mix it with dry chemical suppressants. The different chemistries may interfere with each other, reducing the effectiveness of both. Use them as separate systems based on the nature of the fire.
Q: What is the maximum storage period for the Fluoroprotein Foam Concentrate For Firefighting without significant degradation?
A: When stored in proper conditions (cool, dry, and away from direct sunlight), it can maintain its effectiveness for 3 - 5 years. Regularly check the concentrate for any signs of deterioration, such as changes in color or consistency.
Q: How does the foam concentrate perform in high - velocity wind conditions during outdoor fires?
A: High - velocity winds can disrupt the foam blanket, reducing its effectiveness. In such cases, it may be necessary to increase the application rate or use windbreaks to protect the foam layer. Conduct on - site assessments to determine the best application strategy.
