Foam System – When we talk about fires involving flammable liquids like gasoline, oil, and chemicals, water alone is not enough. Water can spread the liquids and make the fire even bigger.
That’s why the Foam System is used as a highly effective fire suppression solution. At Adiwarna Anugerah Abadi, we help industries design, install, and maintain foam fire suppression systems that meet international safety standards.
What Is a Foam System?
A Foam System uses specially formulated firefighting foam that creates a blanket over burning liquids. This process:
- Cuts off oxygen supply to the fire
- Blocks flammable vapor from rising
- Cools the burning surface
- Prevents fuel from spreading
This makes Foam System the best option for Class B fires.
Types of Firefighting Foam
1️⃣ AFFF — Aqueous Film Forming Foam
Used for hydrocarbon fuels like gasoline & diesel.
2️⃣ AR-AFFF — Alcohol Resistant AFFF
Designed for alcohol and polar liquid fires.
3️⃣ High Expansion Foam
Ideal for large-volume spaces including:
- Aircraft hangars
- Industrial warehouses
- Ship cargo holds
Each foam type has different capabilities, so choosing the right one is critical for proper protection.
