FFFP 3%

Fomtec FFFP 3% is a film forming fluoroprotein foam concentrate (FFFP) containing hydrolysed protein and preservatives, together with a blend of fluorinated surfactants to achieve the maximum synergistic effect. The blend of fluorochemicals selected is effective in reducing the surface tension of water as well as the interfacial tension between water and oil sufficiently low to give stable film on the surface of the fuel and as a result it gives fire extinguishing rates superior to those obtained with synthetic based compounds. Incorporation of protein in the formulation produces a thick visible blanket which has exceptional burnback resistance.

Fomtec FFFP 3% should be used as a 3% proportioned solution in fresh or sea water. The correct proportioning or mixture ratio is 3 parts of concentrate and 97 parts of water.

Application

Fomtec FFFP 3% is intended for use on B class hydrocarbon fuel fires such as oil, petroleum and aviation fuels. Fomtec FFFP 3% can be applied directly onto the fire surface and is also suitable for subsurface injection. It is compatible with all dry powders and can be used in dry 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 03:30 minutes using UNI 86 test nozzle.

Proportioning

Fomtec FFFP 3% can easily be proportioned at the correct dilution using conventional equipment such as:

Inline inductors
Balanced pressure, variable flow proportioning systems
Bladder tanks
Around the pump proportioning systems
Water turbine driven foam proportioners
Self inducting branch pipes and nozzles

The equipment should be designed to the foam type.

FFFP ARC 3X3 NV

FFFP ARC 3x3 NV

Fomtec FFFP ARC 3x3 NV Avalanche is a high efficiency multipurpose alcohol resistant film forming fluoro protein foam (3x3) concentrate.

Fomtec FFFP ARC 3x3 NV is a liquid based on environmentally friendly natural protein and does not contain any polymer that makes general AR type foam concentrates viscous. Its high fluidity makes the induction easier and accurate through both portable and fixed inline proportioners even at extremely low temperatures (-18 C).

The advantage of Fomtec FFFP ARC 3x3 NV is the 3% induction ratio on all class B fires including polar solvents in fresh or seawater.

The low surface tension of the water foam concentrate solution enables the aqueous film, although heavier than the burning liquid, to float on top of the hydrocarbon fuel surface. The specially selected fluorocarbon surfactants ’seal’ the bubbles against attack from polar solvents and also provide a highly effective floating foam layer on top of the polar solvents.

Application

Fomtec FFFP ARC 3x3 NV is intended for use on class B hydrocarbon fuel as well as on polar solvent i.e Isopropanol, Methanol etc and other foam destroying product fires such as MTBE. Typical applications are bulk storage tank protection, process areas, power stations, marine terminals, municipal fire departments, offshore platforms etc. It is compatible with all dry chemical powders.

Fire Performance & Foaming

Fomtec FFFP ARC 3x3 NV has been designed to give the best properties of

Aqueous film forming foam
Alcohol resistant foam
Fluoro protein foam

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 6:1, average ¼ drainage time 02:20 minutes using UNI 86 test nozzle.

Proportioning and equipment

Fomtec FFFP ARC 3x3 NV can easily be proportioned at the correct dilution using conventional equipment such as:

Inline inductors
Balanced pressure, variable flow proportioning systems
Bladder tanks
Around the pump proportioning systems
Water turbine driven foam proportioners
Self inducting branch pipes and nozzles

The equipment should be designed to the foam type.

Fomtec FFFP ARC 3x3 NV can be used with a wide variety of air aspirating discharge devices such as monitors, foam chambers, foam top pourers, foam/water sprinklers. It may also be used with non-aspirating devices such as spray nozzles and sprinklers on shallow fires where a stable foam cover is not essential

Optimal performance is obtained through gentle application, but will also function through forceful application on large hydrocarbon fires such as storage tank fires. Avalanche can also generate medium expansion foam.
