This produces a foam with aqueous film forming characteristics equivalent to AFFF foaming liquids and with same heat resistance as conventional protein foam liquids.

Its foam is compatible with dry chemical powders.  It has increased extinguishment  ability and enhanced fluidity, assures better burnback resistance, sealability and resists hydrocarbon saturation.

Because it is highly resistant to fuel contamination, it has the ability to shed the hydrocarbon which would cause the other types of foam to become combustible or
break down.  Consequently fluoroprotein foam is used
where foam might be plunged into the hydrocarbon fuels
or where foam is injected below the fuel surface.

Hence fluoroprotein foam is a right choice for storage tank farms protection, oil jetties, refineries and off-shore oil platform.

Recommended rate of application for hydrocarbon fires is 2 - 5 LPM / Sq. Mtr.

To obtain optimum foaming it is recommended that an induction of foam compound is 3 to 4 % For long throw equipment and for adhesive foam, a higher rate of 5-6 % foam induction is recommended.

Fluoroprotein foam is compatible in emergency use with other equivalent ISI marked Fluoroprotein / Protein base foam compound, but they must not be mixed together in storage containers.

Fluoroprotein foam is to be stored in original sealed containers, or in tanks suitable for storage of Fluoroprotein foam compounds with temp range - 5⁰C to + 50⁰C.
