Perimeter Solutions announced the introduction of a model new line of fluorine-free firefighting foam concentrates for general purpose use. Called SOLBERG VERSAGARD, the fluorine-free line debuts with SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100. SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 multipurpose 3×3 fluorine-free foam concentrate is an alcohol resistant, state-of-the-art pseudoplastic foam technology designed for extinguishing and securing both Class B (hydrocarbon and polar solvent liquid fuel) and deep-seated Class A fires. This biodegradable and non-persistent focus is made with no siloxanes and is a combination of hydrocarbon surfactants and components that delivers wonderful foaming, vapor sealing, extinguishment and burn-back properties using fresh, sea or brackish water. Some fluorine-free foams are viscous and sometimes present viscosity improve when in contact with water. เกจวัดแรงดันราคา -100 creates very stable foams while keeping a similar viscosity to conventional AR-AFFF foams. This considerably improves storage, handling and long-term stability. SOLBERG VERSAGARD enters the market with a rising number of worldwide certifications, including EN-1568-1/2/3/4:2018, LASTFIRE, ICAO B and International Maritime Organization.
According to Javier Castro, General Manager for Perimeter Solutions Fire Safety Group, SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 is an example of the persevering with expertise innovation by the company within the area of fluorine-free foams. ‘At Perimeter Solutions, we’re engaged in an intensive improvement programme for fluorine-free technology that meets the very best stage of fire-suppression necessities,’ he mentioned. ‘In addition to the superb firefighting performance, one of many key advances of SOLBERG VERSAGARD is its consistent viscosity when involved with water, which is vastly totally different from many different fluorine-free foams in the marketplace. This can have a dramatic impact on dealing with and use charges in firefighting operations.’ he mentioned.
A broad range of use purposes
SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 is designed to generate steady foams with high fluidity and slow drainage. This novel technology allows SOLBERG VERSAGARD to perform similarly to fluorinated products. It could also be used with low-expansion foam gear (nozzles and monitors) and medium- and high-expansion foam discharge devices to battle fires involving Class B hydrocarbon and polar solvent gasoline fires. It is totally suitable and easily proportioned with normal firefighting tools, together with in-line inductors, self-inducting nozzles, fire truck pumps, bladder tanks, pump skids, balanced pressure systems and extra.
In addition to its wonderful foamability and bubble stability, SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 has wonderful wetting ability, making it additionally an efficient tool for the extinguishment of Class A gasoline fires.
Multiple certifications reveal effectiveness
Perimeter Solutions has achieved a broad vary of certifications for SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 required for varied areas and applications. The firefighting foam focus:
Has achieved the maximum rating and is certified to European Standard EN-1568:2018 part three & four on all fuels with freshwater and seawater – IA/IA – IA/IA
Passes and is licensed to European Standard EN-1568:2018 half 1 & 2 – to be used with medium- and high-expansion foam discharge units
Has achieved International Maritime Organization certification MSC.1/Circ. 1312
Has been LASTFIRE batch-certified as GOOD/GOOD/GOOD with three nozzles (semi, asp, system)
Has achieved ICAO Level B
The firm is pursuing extra certifications for the product. SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 is out there immediately on a worldwide foundation. Perimeter Solutions will be discussing the new foam know-how at the AOG Energy Conference in Perth, Australia, 11–12 March 2021, Stand D23.
