Foam Technology
For many fire incidents, foam is the much more efficient extinguishing agent.
Fire protection for extreme situations.
For many fire incidents, foam is the much more efficient extinguishing agent. In many cases, the addition of foam agent reduces deployment time and the extinguishing agent consumption.
Our stationary foam proportioning stations with differential pressure proportioners are completely piped ready for installation with all necessary fittings and are tested on request (with water) as a unit on our test stand including test reports with performance curves.
As a proven foam concentrate pump unit
Consisting of foam concentrate pump, electric or diesel motor and switchgear on a base frame – space-saving with high performance, plug & play, no wiring required, mains-independent, reduced structure-borne noise and with few interfaces. Well thought-out down to the very smallest detail.
Also available as a single foam concentrate pump or as a vertical foam concentrate pump and control cabinet on a base frame.
