Where foam fire extinguishing is installed

Foam fire extinguishing is installed in places where there is a risk of ignition of flammable and combustible liquids such as oils, gasoline and other petroleum products. The main areas where foam systems are used include:

1. Warehouses and storages: Foam firefighting is especially important in warehouses where large volumes of flammable liquids are stored. The foam effectively covers the surface of the liquid, isolating it from oxygen and stopping gorenje.
2. Factories and production facilities: In industrial areas where flammable liquids are used or stored, foam systems can prevent the spread of fire and ensure rapid elimination of fires.
3. Gas stations: At such facilities, foam systems are used to extinguish fuel that can easily ignite in accidents or leaks.
4. Hangars and enclosed spaces: Foam works well in confined spaces where other types of fire extinguishing may be less effective. It helps to prevent the spread of fire and quickly cool burning materials.
5. Industrial kitchens and restaurants: In places with high temperatures and the presence of fatty substances, foam systems are used to fight fat fires, which may be difficult to extinguish by other methods.

Foam systems usually include several types of foam, such as low-fold, medium-fold and high-fold, each of which has its own characteristics. Low-fold foam forms a dense coating, medium-fold foam is lighter and more voluminous, and high-fold foam has the ability to fill large volumes. The choice of foam type and system depends on the specific conditions and risks associated with fire safety.
