4. Hx Foam Generators
The
Portable High Expansion Foam Generator ( HX MINI Super)
is a first aid HX Foam Generator, meant to be carried Fire
Tenders, and is useful for applications such as flooding
of basements, cable ducts, cargo holds, and other marine
and mining applications. When operated at optimum pressure,
the HX MINI Super typically generates HX foam of expansion
between 1:250 to 1: 350, using standard High Expansion Foam
compound. It can be normally operated using the 225 lpm
capacity Inline Inductor. It can also be used for smoke
extraction using reinforced ducting. When being used for
smoke extraction, the Inline Inductor and foam making flexible
net should not be used.

5. Inline Inductors
Inline
Inductors provide means for accurate induction of Foam compound
into the Water stream for operation of Foam branches and
equipment. These Inductors are matched to Foam equipment.
Available in Aluminium and G.M. options, the Inline Inductors
are designed for 3% or 6% induction, the inductors are available
with nominal foam solution capacity of 225 and 450 lpm,
as well as tailor-made to client requirements. Variable
options also available.

6. Lx Mechanical Foam Generators
LX
Mechanical Foam Generators (MFGs) give excellent quality
low expansion foam, and are used as portable equipment,
mounted on Fire fighting Vehicles, or in fixed foam systems.
MFGs induct the required amount of foam compound, and air
into the foam solution stream to give stable LX foam.MFGs
are available with nominal foam solution capacity of 225
(MFG 5)and 450 lpm (MFG 10) It is recommended to operate
the MFGs at a minimum pressure of 7 bars, maximum 12 bars.

7. Mobile Foam Trolley Units
Mobile
Foam Trolley Unit (MFT 100) is an ideal solution for quick
mobilisation and application of foam for tackling flammable
liquid fires and spills, such as in Oil Depots, Petrochemical
complexes, etc. The sturdy FRP body has a capacity to hold
100 ltrs. of foam compound, which allows more than 7 minutes
of continuous application using the FB 10X (450 lpm
capacity) foam branch or almost 15 minutes using the FB
5X (225 lpm capacity )foam branch i.e. over 32000 ltrs.
of finished foam.
The Mobile
foam Trolley design, with its large solid tyres ensures
easy maneuverability, at the same time proper mounting of
equipment (including Inductor, Foam branch and 2 lengths
of 15 mtr. hoses) means easy removal of Foam branch and
hoses for quick deployment. Higher capacity models (upto
200 Ltrs capacity) in FRP/ SS304, and tailor-made to client
requirements available on request.
