Foam Flooding System
In order to avoid false alarms and the resulting damage, the fire extinguishing system usually starts operation only once a pre-programmed amount of time has passed. During this delay, those who are at the location can disable the suppression if they have ascertained beyond any doubt that the suppression is not necessary.
A light foam flood-based sprinkler system fills the protected section with foam to full height. In a foam-filled location the foam cuts off oxygen from the fire, which is a prerequisite for burning, so it is best suited for fire suppression with deep-seated places of origin.
A quenching system based on light foam flooding minimizes the minimal secondary damage caused by quenched foam during suppression, unlike other foam-based or water-based quenching techniques, during which the volume of the extinguishing material is more often several are needed. Be transported to a protected area.
Foam suppression systems are useful for companies that cannot afford expensive tank and pump systems to operate sprinklers or when there is a particularly high risk of high flammable liquid that may require the cover. Automatic or manual fire detection can be used to release a mixture of foam and water that will expand upon the release of the agent and give a larger fire rating cover without the need for large storage or pump tanks.
