Foam Branch Pipe

Foam Branch Pipe

Foinbo® foam branch pipe is an essential tool for firefighting and controlling flammable liquid fires. This nozzle works by mixing air with foam solution to create a foam spray that can blanket and smother the fire effectively. One of the key advantages of an air aspirating foam nozzle is its ability to produce large amounts of foam with minimal water usage. This makes it a more efficient and environmentally friendly option compared to other firefighting methods. The foam produced by the nozzle also has excellent cooling properties, helping to reduce the temperature of the fire and prevent reignition.

Foam Branch Pipe

Foam branch pipe is a specialized firefighting nozzle used to project and apply foam for fire suppression, especially for flammable liquid (Class B) fires. It is often connected to a foam concentrate supply through an inductor or a proportioning system and a hose line. Here's a detailed overview:

 

Function
Mixes air, water, and foam concentrate to create foam solution.

Projects foam in either a straight stream or spray pattern.

Used primarily in oil, chemical, aviation, marine, and industrial fire scenarios.

Types

  • Low Expansion Foam Branch Pipe

Expansion ratio: 1:1 to 20:1

Suitable for outdoor or large fires (fuel storage tanks, oil terminals).

  • Medium Expansion Foam Branch Pipe

Expansion ratio: 20:1 to 200:1

Ideal for rapid foam coverage, but less range.

  • High Expansion Foam Branch Pipe (less common in branch pipe form)

Expansion ratio: 200:1 to 1000+:1

FAQ

 

Q: What is a foam branch pipe?

A foam branch pipe is a device used to discharge and direct foam solution for firefighting. It helps mix foam concentrate with water and air to generate and project firefighting foam onto fires, especially Class B fires (flammable liquids).

 

Q: Where is the foam branch pipe used?

Foam branch pipes are commonly used in: Oil refineries, Chemical plants, Airports Fuel storage depots, Marine facilities, Fire trucks and firefighting units.

 

Q: What types of foam branch pipes are available?

Common types include:

Low Expansion Foam Branch Pipe (expansion ratio ~6–20:1)

Medium Expansion Foam Branch Pipe (expansion ratio ~20–200:1)

High Expansion Foam Branch Pipe (expansion ratio >200:1)

Self-inducting Branch Pipe (draws foam concentrate by Venturi effect)

 

Q: What are the typical inlet sizes?

Standard sizes include: 1.5 inch (38 mm) and 2.5 inch (63 mm), with coupling types like BS336, Storz, NH, or custom threaded.

 

Q: What is the typical flow rate of the foam branch pipe?

Flow rates vary by model but typically range from:

200 to 450 liters per minute (LPM) or more

Higher-capacity models available for industrial use.
