FOAM CHAMBERS

Foam Chambers

Foam makers and chambers are designed to introduce expanded foam directly onto the surface of a flammable or combustible liquid for fire extinguishment and/or vapor suppression. Classified as a Type II discharge device in accordance with NFPA Standard 11, foam chambers deliver low expansion foam directly onto the fuel surface with a minimum of foam submergence and fuel agitation. Minimizing submergence and agitation increases the effectiveness of the foam blanket, resulting in more efficient operation, and superior extinguishing capabilities. Foam chambers have the added advantage of directing all their flow directly onto the product surface regardless of weather conditions, for the most effective utilization of foam resources. Foam chambers have a long history of timely and safe control of numerous incidents.
