F-220 CAFS

F-220 CAFS: MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU THINK

DESCRIPTION

F-220 cafs is a stand alone multipurpose unit cafs equipped with B&S Vanguard gasoline engine, centrifugal pump, proportioner, compressor and foam generator.
It is designed for installation in vehicles which do not have a PTO and to use as stand alone unit in industries, boats, heliports and airports . Due to its compact design and its low weight the system is a multipurpose unit.
It is ideally suited for installation in vans, on pick-ups, on speed boats, on trailers or as stationary unit. The unit need only water and foam to run. Foam can be supplied from a dedicated tank on the skid-unit or from external can or container.

FIRECAFS FOAM AND CONCENTRATION

Firecafs foaming agents have been especially developed for the production of compressed air foam. Threefold firefighting due to cooling, isolation and seperation effect. Unmatched penetration for extinguishing depth and low foaming agent consumption.

  • WHERE: Firecafs foams can be used everywhere: in structural fire extinguishing, road accidents, oil and gas, industry, aviation, recycling, warehouse, boats, exposure protection and wildland fires.
  • CONCENTRATION: Firecafs foams are good at wetting and cooling fuels, suppressing flammable vapors and reducing smoke.
    Firecafs foams also has an opaque surface to reflect heat, creates insulating bubbles, holds water on any surface, is biodegradable and has low mix ratios from 0.1 percent to 1 percent.
  • SPECIAL FEATURES: Firecafs foams increases the ability of water to penetrate fuel sources as much as 1,000 times better by reducing surface tension.
    Firecafs foams enhances water’s ability to cool by as much as 300 percent
  • OTHER FEATURES: Low proportioning rates for long operation times and cost-saving consumption, mixable with fresh water, brackish water and sea water, very good biodegradability of the fluorine-free extinguishing foams

FOAMS

A PLUS – 0,3%

Firecafs A PLUS foam can be used
in a concentration range of:
0,1-0,3% as wetting agent
0,3-2% as foaming, with potable, sea or brackish water for Class A (solid) fires and Class B (hydrocarbon fuels)

A – 0,1-1%

Firecafs A foam can be used at 0,1-3% for Class A fires.
When adding the foam in concentrations as low as 0,1%, the aqueous solution receives excellent wetting characteristics

A-B – 1%

Firecafs Foam A-B  class is fluorine free, low viscosity, newtonian foam concentrate to extinguish hydrocarbon fuels fires and solids.
Concentration class A and B: 1%
