Quality Criteria

The quality of fire fighting foams is controlled by the lab. The following values are important :

• PH-Value • Density • Sediment • Frost resistance • Viscosity • Surface tension • Expansion ratio • 25% + 50% drainage time • Sea water stability • Extinguishing properties

PH-VALUE

The Ph-value depends en supply specifications. Normally the PH-value is ajusted is 6.5 bis 8.5.

pH value lower than 5 : Indication of a beginning degradation of the foam concentrate which increases the lowering of the pH-value pH wert higher than 8 : generally no problem

Density

The density is determined by the areometer method. This unit is kg/l or g/ml.

Sediment

The sediment content is the amount of non-soluble components in the concentrate. The unit is Vol-%

Protein foam concentrates : At delivery max, 0.2% After ageing max. 0.5% Synthetic foam concentrates : Should be sediment free

Frost Resistance

The frost resistance indicates the temperature up to whichthe foam concentrate can be used. The quality of a foam concentrate is neither affected by fluctuations of the temprature between the freesing point and +50 °C nor by temporailly freesing and slow thawing.

Kinematic Viscosity

The kinematic Viscosity of newtonian liquids is determined with a viscosimeter according to Ubbelohde.

Dynamic Viscosity

Pseudo-plastic liquids change their viscosity with the flow speed.

Surface Tension

The surface tension is determined with a tensiometer. A low surface tension is essencial for the wetting ability and the formation of the aqueous film.

Expansion

Expansion ratio

Low expansion foam (*er : 2-20) : Wet Small-bubbled structure Good sticking ability Heat resistant Large throwing distance Medium expansion foam (*er : 20-200) : Wet to dry Small-to large –bubbled structure Low weight with large volume Flowable Throwing distance up to 12 m High expansion foam (*er : 200-1000) : Very dry less damage by water Large-bubbled structure Very low weight with very large volume Low floability Can not be thrown *er = Expantion ratio

25% + 50% Drainage Time

The drainage time is the time when 25% or 50% of the used foam solution has drained from the foam.

Low expansion foam S.O. Medium expansion foam MBS 10 -20

AFFF 2- 10

High expansion foam MBS 5- 20

Sea water stability

Sea water stability is an important requirement for the use of foam concentrate on ships, in harbours and offshore. The stability also applies to water from rivers, brackkish water and treated industrial water. The stability of the expanded foam made with seawater comared to frehwater is dependend on the type foam concentrate : Protein foam concentrate : equal or even better Synthetic foam concentrate : equal or slightly less

performance grade

Important for fignting fires : Extinguishing time Burnback resistance EN 1568-3 Extinguishing time + burnback resistance Performance grade e.g. IB The smallet the number and the smaller the letter The better is the grade

Performance Grade

Mixing of foam concentrate

Generally, only foam concentrates of the same type sould be mixed ! Exemple : Protein foam concentrate with protein foam concentrate, AFFF with AFFF Concentrate of different types should not be mixed! Exemple : Fluor-protein foam concentrate not with AFFF Alcohol resistant AFFF not with multipurpose foam! Potein foam concentrate not with multipurpose foam ! In emergenceis, foam concentrates of the sames type of different manufacturers can be mixed in any ratio, as long as it is to be used immediately.

Storage

Warranty : 5 years Storage time : Normal minimun 10 years in sealed original containers stored in line with our requirements or stationary storage tanks.
