PLUREX M High Expansion Foam Concentrate is a synthetic based formulation comprised of hydrocarbon surfactants, solvents, and stabilizers for use with low, medium and high expansion foam generators.
PLUREX M High Expansion Foam Concentrate can be used to produce foam with expansion ratios ranging from 50:1 to 1000:1 depending upon the type of generator and its operating pressure. When used with high expansion generators, recommended proportioning is at 3% (3 Litres PLUREX M concentrate with 97 litre water)
Performance PLUREX M is measured against the latest specifications of the European Standard EN1568 : 2008 edition and marine IMO standard Msc 670. Testing on both standards have allowed rigorous testing with both fresh and salt water to meet the required performances.
The performance of PLUREX M foam concentrate when used at High-Expansion will vary depending upon the performance characteristics of the equipment. Expansion ratios through high expansion generators typically are between 200:1 and 1000:1. For this reason, it is important for the proper design of a high expansion system that the PLUREX M foam Concentrate be specifically tested with the foam generators. Medium expansion foam generators typically deliver expansion ratios between 50:1 and 200:1.
PLUREX M can be used by most conventional foam
equipment such as:
• Balance pressure pump proportioning equipment
• Bladder tank and related proportioners
• Around-the-pump proportioners
• Fixed and portable In-line venturi type inductors
• Fixed or handline nozzles with fixed induction/pick up tubes
