The SKUM MTB-ASME Horizontal Foam Bladder Tank is a steel pressure vessel that stores foam concentrate in an elas tomeric bladder. As incoming water applies pressure to the bladder, the foam concentrate discharges from the tank. This energy transfers to the concentrate and supplies pressurized concentrate to a proportioner.

Application
The SKUM MTB-ASME Horizontal Foam Bladder Tank is one component of a balanced pressure proportioning system. For operation, SKUM bladder tanks only require a pressurized water supply. They do not require other sources of external power. To create a complete foam system, use the SKUM MTB-ASME Horizontal Foam Bladder Tank with one or more SKUM proportioners and any suitable discharge device. You can use most SKUM foam concentrates with SKUM bladder tanks.
