What is AR-AFFF foam used for?

AR-AFFF concentrates produce foams that are effective in suppressing both types of Class B fuel fires – polar solvent (water soluble) fuels such as methanol, ethanol and acetone, as well as hydrocarbon fuels, such as gasoline, diesel and petroleum.

What is AFFF foam made of?

Aqueous film forming foams (AFFF) are water-based and frequently contain hydrocarbon-based surfactant such as sodium alkyl sulfate, and fluorosurfactant, such as fluorotelomers, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), or perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS).

Does Chemguard contain Pfas?

The environmentally-mindful CHEMGUARD C3B 3% AFFF Concentrate formulation contains short-chain, C-6 fluorochemicals manufactured using a telomer-based process. The telomer process produces no PFOS, and these C-6 materials do not breakdown to yield PFOA.

How does chemguard C1b 1% foam concentrate work?

CHEMGUARD C1B 1% AFFF (Aqueous Film-Forming Foam) Concentrate combines fluoro- and hydrocarbon-surfactant technology to provide superior fire and vapor suppression for Class B, hydrocarbon fuel fires. This synthetic foam concentrate is intended for firefighting applications at 1% solution in fresh, salt, or hard water.

What do you need to know about chemguard foam?

CHEMGUARD fire suppression foam concentrates, systems, mobile equipment, and specialty hardware, meet the needs of demanding applications around the globe.

Is the pro / Pak foam system easy to make?

Making great foam is easy with the PRO/pak. Task Force Tips, Inc. saves lives and protects property by designing and manufacturing innovative tools which exceed the expectations of those that risk their lives to save others. Due to manufacturer restrictions we are currently unable to sell this product outside of the United States.

What is the purpose of 1% foam concentrate?

This synthetic foam concentrate is intended for firefighting applications at 1% solution in fresh, salt, or hard water. The foam blanket blocks oxygen supply to the fuel. Liquid drains from the foam blanket and forms an aqueous film that suppresses fuel vapor and seals the fuel surface.
