PRE-MIXED FOAM FIRE-FIGHTING STATIONS

MITIGATION OF CLASS B HYDROCARBON FIRE HAZARDS

Description

Burner engineered Pre-mixed AFFF Skid Systems are designed for Class B Fire Protection.  The units are totally self-contained and require no outside water, foam pumps, or proportioners.  Capacities range from 150 to 500 gallons and custom capacity code tanks can be fabricated in-house to customer specifications at Burner’s ASME facilities.  Units are offered with LOP (Loss of Pressure) actuation systems and can be configured for manual or automatic discharge.

Applications

Self-contained AFFF 500 and 300

Pre-Mixed Foam Units are suited for offshore installations, oil tankers, aircraft hangars, fuel storage tanks, helidecks, pumping stations, and land wellsite production and fracking areas in providing rapid response flame attack on Class B fires consisting of flammable liquid spills and hazards.  The foam acts as a blanket source to smother and cool pooling hydrocarbon liquid while additionally acting as a vapor suppressant to aid in preventing re-ignition of the hazard area.  These systems address limitations experienced with traditional foam proportioners, around-the-pump systems, foam monitors, applicators, and foam concentrate storage tanks.  Variables with these other types of systems include inlet pressure, back pressure restrictions, nozzle restrictions, variable flow rates, and mobility, issues not present in pre-engineered complete systems.  Supporting information on the effectiveness of foam through various methods of delivery can be found in ABS – American Bureau of Shipping “Guidance Notes on Fire-Fighting Systems” (updated February 2014)

Standard Corrosion Control Package

Burner’s Exterior Protective Process to withstand extreme offshore conditions enables a typical lifespan up to 10 years. Components are broken down to individual units prior to application of the corrosion resistant paint finish to ensure all surfaces receive the maximum protection possible. Systems are assembled with stainless steel, brass, and bronze hardware and fittings and these items are additionally protected applying corrosion resistant coatings to each item.

Features

Optional Hose Reel with 100 ft booster hose available (skid mounted)
Cylinders completed with regulator (w/ gauges) to the manifold eliminating high pressure leaks
Internally coated pressure vessel to prevent corrosion
ASME code pressure vessel completed with pressure relief safety valve and 4″ fill cap
