Flameskill offer a comprehensive foam testing service. We can test all types of foam including protein, fluoroprotein, AFFF and FFFP’s as well as  Alcohol Resistant types. The foam concentrates are tested for Drainage Time, Expansion Ratio as well as confirmation of percentage concentrate involving refractive index messurements. We also carry out alcohol resistance checks.

On site testing can be carried out both onshore and offshore by one of our specialist trained engineers.

Description

Foam Concentrate Test Report

The purpose of a Foam Concentrate Test Report is to evaluate if the sample tested is in satisfactory condition and most importantly, is within the manufacturer’s specification

Samples required:

Please provide at least 1 litre of foam concentrate. Samples should ideally be provided in clean tightly sealed bottles and be labelled with the following information,

  • Type of foam concentrate, eg 6% AFFF
  • Name of company
  • Date of sample taken
  • Sample location point

How do I take a sample of Foam Concentrate.

The foam concentrate sample should be representative of the stored product. The three recognised sample procedures most frequently used are,

  • Single sample – Circulate the stored product to obtain a single homogeneous sample.
  • Two samples – Take a sample from the top and bottom of the stored product and composite the samples into a single unit.
  • Three samples – Take a top, middle and bottom sample and composite into a single unit.

 

Produced Foam Test Report

The purpose of a Produced Foam Test Report is to determine the suitablilty and accuracy of a foam systems proportioning/induction equipment.

Each Produced Foam Test Report shows a calculated % induction measured using the sample provided.

Samples required:

Please provide at least the following,

  • 1.0 litre of foam concentrate
  • 1.0 litre of induction water
  • 0.5 litre of produced faom

Samples should ideally be provided in clean tightly sealed bottles and be labelled with the following information,

  • Type of foam concentrate, eg 6% AFFF
  • Name of company
  • Date of sample taken
  • Sample location point

How do I take a sample of Produced Foam

Produced or Expanded Foam samples should be represent as closely as possible the foam reaching the designated discharge area.

Collecting samples from nozzles, monitors and overhead sprinklers – Collect sample from point of impact in nthe discharge area.

Collecting sample from foam pourers – Insert sample container into the edge of produced foam stream and take sample.

Practical points,

  • Before taking the sample, activate the foam system long enough to remove standing columns of water (which otherwise would contribute to a dilute produced foam sample).
  • Use a foam target and collecting board. Please contact us for more details.
  • Sample when the system is in equilibrium
