KV-LITE FP-AR is based on proteineous material, which gives good sealing and excellent burn back resistance. KV-LITE FP-AR is formulated with hydrolysed protein, fluoro chemicals, metal salts, special stabilizers and preservatives to give the best performance even on Polar solvents. KV-LITE FP-AR forms a cohesive thin polymeric film at the interface between foam and the water soluble Polar solvents.
This thin polysaccharide film protects the foam without destruction of film by polar solvents. The polymeric film has self-sealing characteristics whereby the film, if disturbed gets regenerated by itself. KV-LITE FP-AR is suitable for both non-polar & polar, flammable solvent fires. Its unique properties are great foam stability, exceptional burn back resistance & high sealing power.
- KV-LITE FP-AR is available in 3 x 3 % and 3 x 6 % concentrate
- It can be used with fresh water as well as seawater.
- It can be applied with the help of all types of nozzles, inductors, foam chambers etc.
- It complies with all requirements of SOLAS 1974 convention as amended (2003)
- Used for protection of tank farms, oil jetties, refineries and offshore oil platforms involving massive hydrocarbon and/or Alcohol fires.
