Foam Chamber in Storage Tank

The forede® brand A foam chamber in a storage tank is an important tool for fire protection. It is used to prevent or extinguish fires in the tank by releasing foam that covers the fuel, cutting off the oxygen supply, and suppressing the flames. The installation of a foam chamber can significantly reduce the risk of fire and protect the facility from damage or loss.

One of the advantages of a foam chamber is that it is easy to operate and maintain. Once installed, the foam system can be activated with a simple push of a button or remote control. The foam is stored in tanks that are refilled periodically, and the equipment is checked and tested regularly to ensure proper functioning.

Another benefit of a foam chamber is that it is versatile and can be customized to fit the specific needs of the facility. There are different types of foam, such as AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam), AR-AFFF (Alcohol-Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam), and FFFP (Film-Forming Fluoroprotein) foam. Each type of foam has its own properties and is suitable for different types of fires. The foam chamber can also be designed to cover different areas and volumes of the storage tank, depending on the size and layout of the facility.
