Description

AR-AFFF Synthetic 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’s highly effective against hydrocarbon fires and with the addition of special polymers it’s 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’ss 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 compatible with galvanized pipe or fittings in an undiluted form
• Suitable for use with 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
