AR-AFFF Synthetic C6 Chemistry Foam Concentrate
3% & 6%
C-Guard AR-AFFF (3% Or 6%) is an ultra high efficiency multipurpose alcohol resistant film forming foam, The film forming characteristics of AR- AFFF means that it spreads rapidly across a fire.As a result, it is highly effective against hydrocarbonfires and with the addition of special polymers it is also highly effective against polar solvents.
The main advantage of AR-AFFF is that it can be used at 3% concentration for all class B fires. It is intended for use on hydrocarbon fuels such as gasoline, kerosene, diesel,etc. and on polar solvent / water miscible fuels such as alcohols, esters, etc. at the same use concentration of 3 % or 6%
Features:
- Suitable for use on hydrocarbon or polar solvent type fuels
- Excellent wetting characteristics when used in combating Class A fuel fires
- Suitable for use with carbon steel, fiberglass, polyethylene or stainless stee AR-AFFF is not compat ible with galvanized pipe or fittings in an undiluted form
- Suitable for use w ith all siliconized dry chemical extinguishing agents Recommended minimum application rate on hydrocarbon Fuels is 0.10gpm/ft2
- Recommended minimum application rate on polar solvent fuels is 17 gpm/ft2 (Some Polar type fuel fires may be successfully extinguished with a lower application rate)
- Compatible with other 3%-6% AFFF-AR concentrates of equal quality
Proportioning:
C-Guard Synthetic AR-AFFF Can easily be proportioned at the correct dilution using conventional equipment such as:
- In-line 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
Application:
C-Guard AR-AFFF 3% or6% provide quality protection for a wide range of hazardous areas such as:
- Crash Fire Rescue,
- Defense Facilities
- Storage tanks (non-polar solvent type fuels only)
- Truck/Rail loading or unloading facilities
- Processing/Storage facilities
- Docks/Marine tankers
- Flammable liquid containment areas and Mobile equipment
