Foam generator

In addition to traditional extinguishing systems that use water as an extinguishing element, in some cases it is necessary to add a foaming element to the water. These types of systems are combined with traditional pressurization groups which can be underground or external. Technical features Our foam fire prevention system called RIGHETTO FOAM SYSTEM is basically made up of: Fire fighting water reserve tank Fire pressurization unit Pre-mixer (tank and mixer) with liquid displacement (foaming) Control / alarm valve(s) .Nozzles / Lances / Generators for A.E._ The foam is contained in a tank of predetermined capacity sized according to the risk to be protected. Inside the tank there is a rubberized fabric membrane which contains the foam. The membrane prevents the foam agent stored in the tank from coming into contact with the water and the wall of the container, thus avoiding dilution, possible contamination of the foam agent and corrosion of the tank Foam is a very effective fire extinguishing agent, composed of water, foam and air. It is particularly suitable for class A fires (tyres, plastic, etc.) and class B fires (flammable and combustible liquids such as hydrocarbons, paints, solvents, petrol, etc.). The foam puts out fires basically for: Cooling: the evaporation of the water contained in the foam removes heat from the fire. Suffocation: the dense layer of foam creates a barrier that prevents contact with oxygen (oxidizing). Insulation: preventive foaming protects materials from nearby fires. Blanket effect: the foam layer prevents the escape of combustible vapors into the air.
