EUROSAFE FOAM FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM

Not all businesses have the same needs for a fire suppression system. In some cases, a regular wet sprinkler would be too ineffective or even dangerous. For areas that have a lot of flammable materials, a foam fire suppression system is the way to go.

Foam fire suppression is composed of foam concentrate and water and air that mix together to create a foam blanket that keeps the fuel from burning. It all depends on the right foam concentrate and discharge device.

The foam blanket’s thin layer stops oxygen from getting into the fuel fire, which helps to reduce both the vapor and the fire. The System is designed as per NFPA.

Foam Suppression System Variations

Foam fire suppression systems are classified by high, medium, or low expansion; Each system offers a different removal process depending on the application areas.

In a high expansion foam system, the foam expands from 100: 1 to 1000:1, and air or other non-combustible gas expands range spontaneously or forcefully. This high-expansion foam produces superior depth and less wet coverage with large air bubbles. It is very light and can quickly fill an extended enclosure. A small amount of water produces a large amount of foam in a short time and extinguishes the fire by extinguishing the fire.

The high expansion system

The high expansion system is applicable to large enclosed spaces where an overall anti-flood system is always required to extinguish the fire, which is not suitable for outdoor spaces. Mainly used in warehouses, hangars, and liquefied natural gas ponds.

In the medium expansion foam system

In the medium expansion foam system, the expansion ratio is 10:1 to 100:1, very useful for small areas. This system can produce a large amount of precise foam in a short time. It creates a thick blanket 2 feet deep on the flammable fuel/chemicals and separates the fuel from the oxygen. In addition, the existing water provides a cooling effect on the fire. Therefore, extinguishing fire as well as smoke is used in oil refineries, chemical production areas, municipal fire departments, and solvent storage areas.

In a low-expansion foam system

In a low-expansion foam system, the expansion ratio of the foam is 10:1 creating a very wet foam blanket with small and very dense foam bubbles. The foam shell is quite durable and creates a solid cover. It separates fuel from oxygen through the process of asphyxiation. In addition, an adequate amount of existing water will produce a flame-cooling effect.

The discharge occurs through the sprinkler, nozzle, screen, and foam generator and provides high-density foam over long throw distances as well as overhead. Low-expansion foam is not sensitive to wind or rain and is used in hydrocarbon fires, including storage tanks, on ships, refineries, rooftop heliports, and production areas.

Extinguishment Principle

We know that fire is caused by heat and fuel, as well as oxygen and chemical reactions. To extinguish a fire, any one of these elements must be cut out, so foam systems mainly affect oxygen.

First, a foam blanket forms over the combustible fuels, separating them from oxygen, thereby smothering oxygen.

Then, the solution’s water absorbs heat and cools the combustible fuels and substance surfaces very quickly by the cooling effect, thus preventing reignition.

Foam blankets also effectively suppress the vapors of combustible liquids and dilute their vapor phase concentration.

Eurosafe Foam Fire Suppression System Equipment

Applications of the Eurosafe Foam Fire Suppression System

The Eurosafe system is suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly in settings where fire risks are elevated:

Chemical and Petrochemical Plants: Facilities that handle flammable liquids and gases can benefit significantly from Eurosafe’s fast-acting and highly effective foam. The system can contain fires involving volatile chemicals, reducing the risk of catastrophic damage.

Industrial Manufacturing Facilities: Manufacturing facilities often house large quantities of combustible materials. Eurosafe foam can be deployed quickly to prevent fires from spreading across production areas, storage facilities, and warehouses.

Aircraft Hangars and Transportation Hubs: Eurosafe foam is particularly useful in spaces like hangars, where fires involving aviation fuel present unique hazards. The foam’s rapid spread and strong flame suppression capabilities help ensure safety in these high-risk environments.

Power Plants and Electrical Facilities: The Eurosafe system is also effective in power plants, where electrical fires can be challenging to control. The foam can isolate flames without causing damage to equipment, making it ideal for these complex environments.
