FP 3%
FP 3%
Fomtec FP 3% is a flouroprotein foam concentrate containing flourinated surfactants in a carefully formulated protein foam liquid base. This ensures the production of stabilised fluid foam which will cover a burning hydrocarbon fuel surface rapidly.
The water soluble flourosurfactant makes the foam hydrocarbon repellent and reduces the amount of burning particles absorbed by the foam in fighting the hydrocarbon fuel fires. Once the fire extinction has been achieved the high stability of the foam blanket ensures against the risk of re ignition and provides excellent protection against burn back should any inaccessible pockets of fire remain.
Fomtec FP 3% should be used at 3% proportioned solution (3 part concentrate in 97 parts of water) in fresh or seawater.
Application
Fomtec FP 3% is intended for use on class B hydrocarbon fuel fires such as oil, diesel and aviation fuels. Fomtec FP 3% can be applied directly onto the fire surface and is also suitable for sub surface injection. It is compatible with all dry chemical powders and can be used in powder/foam twin agent systems.
Fire Performance & Foaming
The fire performance of this product has been measured and documented according to "International Approvals" stated in this document. The foaming properties are depending on equipment used and other variables such as water and ambient temperatures. Average expansion 7:1, average ¼ drainage time 04:30 minutes using UNI 86 test nozzle.

MB Trainer
MB Trainer
MB Trainer is a gentle and mildly formulated Synthetic Multi Purpose Foam intended for training the use of Foam without using of normal foam inventory. The product is readily biodegadable and ideal for use at fire training schools.
Description
Fomtec MB Trainer foam is a blend of high activity, synthetic, fatty alcohol sulphates, solvents and stabilisers.
Fomtec MB Trainer foam is designed for use as training foam and is more environmentally friendly than normal synthetic foams.
Fomtec MB Trainer foam should be used at 3% concentration in fresh or sea water if medium or high expansion foams are required depending on equipment used.
Application
Fomtec MB Trainer foam is a multi purpose foam for training purposes which can also be used at low, medium and high expansions for the extinguishment of class B hydrocarbon fires such as small fuel spills (low & medium expansion), bench protection (medium expansion), and it can also be used for the control and extinction of cryogenic flammable liquid fires or vapour release from toxic spillage.
At medium and high expansion, Fomtec MB Trainer foam can be used for total flooding of fires involving class A and class B materials. Medium expansion type is particularly suitable for small areas such as cellars and basements of buildings and high expansion type for large areas such as ship cargo or engine rooms. It is especially suitable for dealing with fires in inaccessible locations and where damage must be kept to a minimum.
Foaming Properties
The expansion will vary depending on the characteristics of the equipment used.
Proportioning
Fomtec MB Trainer foam can easily be proportioned at the correct dilution using conventional equipment such as:
l Inline inductors.
l Balanced pressure, variable flow proportioning systems.
l Bladder tanks.
l Around the pump proportioning systems.
l Water turbine driven foam proportioners.
l Self inducting branch pipes and nozzles
l High expansion foam generators.
