High Expansion Foam
Concentrate 3% & 6%
High Expansion Foam Concentrate has demonstrated fire control capability with contained flammable liquefied gases, including LNG, LPG, Ethylene, Butadiene and Vinyl Chloride Monomer.
It is surfactant based biodegradable, high water retentive. C-Guard foam concentrate forms an effective vapor barrier against a broad range of volatile chemicals, including all classes of water-immiscible organic liquids and a wide range of acid and alkaline inorganic materials.
C-Guard foam concentrate can be used with high expansion equipment to combat three-dimensional fires where total flooding is the objective (such as paint booths, paper warehouses, airplane hangars and mines). When used with high expansion equipment, C-Guard foam concentrate produces a stable blanket of bubbles that can quickly build up to help suffocate flames. The long lasting foam also helps to prevent reignition.
Foam Properties:
When C-Guard foam is mixed with water in the correct proportion, expansion ratios of up to 1,000 to 1 can be achieved. This expansion ratio is dependent on the type of discharge device and pressure of the system when operating.
Proportioning:
C-Guard HE Can easily be proportioned at the correct dilution using conventional equipment such as:
- In-line inductors
- Balanced pressure, variable flow proportioning systems
- Foam Generator
- Around the pump proportioning systems
- Self inducting branch pipes and nozzles
