What are the advantages of Forede's foam aspiration tubes for fire monitors?
Forede's foam aspiration tubes (e.g., FRD-PPG-A, FRD-PPGZ) transform water monitors into dual-agent systems, offering significant advantages:
- Foam Expansion Efficiency:
Low Expansion (6-25x): Models like FRD-PPG-A create dense foam for liquid fires (e.g., oil, gasoline).
Medium Expansion (20-200x): FRD-PPGZ generates lightweight foam for smothering fires in confined spaces.
- Quick Conversion:
Quick-Attach Design: Compatible with FOREDE nozzles (e.g., PTZC-PS-20AD), enabling rapid switch between water and foam modes.
- Proportion Control:
Adjustable foam concentrate ratios (3% or 6%) optimize agent usage based on fire type.
- Marine/Industrial Use:
Ideal for shipboard fires, petrochemical spills, or warehouses with flammable materials.
- Range & Pressure:
Works at pressures up to 10.5 bar, with jetting distances up to 250 meters (FRD-PPG-950S).
- Material Compatibility:
Constructed with hard anodized aluminum alloy and stainless steel for durability in harsh environments.
