FAQs of Aqueous Film Forming Foam 3% AFFF:
Q: How is Aqueous Film Forming Foam 3% AFFF applied to fires?
A: AFFF 3% is diluted with water at a 3% concentration and applied directly to burning flammable liquids using foam nozzles, sprayers, or automated firefighting systems to rapidly suppress flames and prevent re-ignition.
Q: What makes AFFF effective for Class B fires?
A: AFFF creates a synthetic aqueous film that blocks oxygen from reaching flammable liquids, quickly extinguishing Class B fires and inhibiting their recurrence by cooling the fuel and sealing volatile vapors.
Q: When should AFFF 3% be used instead of other firefighting agents?
A: Use AFFF 3% primarily for fires involving flammable liquids such as oil, gasoline, or chemicals. It is preferred when rapid suppression and prevention of vapor release are critical, particularly in industrial environments.
Q: Where should AFFF 3% foam concentrate be stored?
A: Store AFFF 3% in cool, dry, and well-ventilated areas, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its stability and extend shelf life. Proper storage prevents deterioration and ensures readiness for emergency use.
Q: What is the process for preparing AFFF for firefighting?
A: To prepare AFFF, mix the concentrate at a ratio of 3% with water and agitate until homogenous. Load the mixture into fire suppression equipment, ensuring compatibility with foam generator systems specified for Class B hazards.
Q: How does using AFFF benefit firefighting operations?
A: AFFF delivers rapid, effective coverage and long-lasting suppression, reducing firefighting time and minimizing damage from flammable liquid fires. Its UL and EN certifications provide confidence in performance and safety.
