Perimeter Solutions announced the introduction of a brand new line of fluorine-free firefighting foam concentrates for basic function 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 each 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 mix of hydrocarbon surfactants and additives that delivers excellent foaming, vapor sealing, extinguishment and burn-back properties using recent, sea or brackish water. Some fluorine-free foams are viscous and often present viscosity increase when in contact with water. SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 creates very steady foams while keeping an identical viscosity to conventional AR-AFFF foams. This significantly improves storage, dealing with and long-term stability. SOLBERG VERSAGARD enters the market with a rising variety of international 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 instance of the continuing know-how innovation by the company in the area of fluorine-free foams. ‘At Perimeter Solutions, we’re engaged in an intensive improvement programme for fluorine-free expertise that meets the very best degree of fire-suppression necessities,’ he said. ‘In addition to the excellent firefighting performance, one of many key advances of SOLBERG VERSAGARD is its constant viscosity when involved with water, which is vastly different from many different fluorine-free foams available on the market. This can have a dramatic impact on handling and use charges in firefighting operations.’ he stated.
A broad vary of use functions
SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 is designed to generate stable foams with excessive fluidity and slow drainage. This novel technology permits SOLBERG VERSAGARD to carry out similarly to fluorinated products. It could also be used with low-expansion foam equipment (nozzles and monitors) and medium- and high-expansion foam discharge units to struggle fires involving Class B hydrocarbon and polar solvent gas fires. It is fully appropriate and easily proportioned with standard firefighting equipment, together with in-line inductors, self-inducting nozzles, hearth truck pumps, bladder tanks, pump skids, balanced pressure techniques and extra.
In addition to its glorious foamability and bubble stability, SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 has excellent wetting ability, making it additionally an effective software for the extinguishment of Class A fuel fires.
Multiple certifications reveal effectiveness
Perimeter Solutions has achieved a broad range of certifications for SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 required for varied regions and functions. The firefighting foam focus:
Has achieved the maximum rating and is certified to European Standard EN-1568:2018 half 3 & 4 on all fuels with freshwater and seawater – IA/IA – IA/IA
Passes and is licensed to European Standard EN-1568:2018 part 1 & 2 – for use with medium- and high-expansion foam discharge devices
Has achieved International Maritime Organization certification MSC.1/Circ. 1312
Has been LASTFIRE batch-certified as GOOD/GOOD/GOOD with 3 nozzles (semi, asp, system)
Has achieved ICAO Level B
The firm is pursuing further certifications for the product. ร้านซ่อมเครื่องวัดความดันโลหิต -100 is on the market immediately on a global basis. Perimeter Solutions might be discussing the model new foam know-how on the AOG Energy Conference in Perth, Australia, 11–12 March 2021, Stand D23.
