The NAFFCO Fixed type Compressed Air Foam Fire Suppression System uses compressed air to propel firefighting foam. Thousands of tight radius bubbles quickly cool and smother a fire by providing a thick Vapor-sealing blanket of foam that virtually eliminates re-ignition.
The foam will adhere to horizontal and vertical surfaces. This system allows the operator to seal a fuel spill and flammable Vapors with foam thus reducing or eliminating a potential fire.
The system will discharge the foam approximately 25-30 meters in a no wind condition allowing fire-fighting personnel without protective clothing to avoid thermal injuries. Trained personnel can accomplish all maintenance except hydrostatic pressure testing of the Air Cylinders, Premix Tank, and the Discharge Hose.
• Immediately isolate the surrounding Fire, protects transferring the fire to other places and prevent ignition of Fire further.
• Saving time and water for Civil Defense Personnel while they fight with Fire.
• Reducing damage to structures happens due to water.
• Allows Firefighters a better safety distance from Fire.
• Light hose lines for less stress for Fire-Fighters.
• Less environmental damage.
• Foamed areas signal a cooled surface.
• Less water runoff carrying pollutants.
• Reduced smoke emissions
• Less pressure needed due to lack of friction loss.
