Foam concentrates for Aviation

Foam Agents for Aviation

Foam concentrates for aviation used by airport fire services, or for use in extinguishing systems e.g. at commercial airports, in hangars or on helidecks, must comply with the requirements of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). The products Dr. Sthamer foam concentrates that designed for the this aviation sector.

STHAMEX®-AFFF 3% F-15 (#4341)
STHAMEX®-AFFF 3% F-15 is a synthetic, aqueous film forming fire extinguishing foam concentrate, based on surface active agents. It is designed for use at a 3% concentration and applied with all standard low, medium, and high expansion foam equipment and fixed foam installations especially for class B fires.

Key Features:
– Oleophobic Properties: The foam is resistant to fuel contamination, making it particularly suitable for sub-surface foam applications.
– Application Versatility: On hydrocarbon-based products, it can be applied as a non-aspirated aqueous solution using equipment such as water monitors, water sprinklers, and deluge systems.

Applications:
– Petrochemical industries
– Airports
– Onshore and offshore facilities

Limitations:
– STHAMEX®-AFFF 3% F-15 (#4341) is not suitable for use on polar solvents, such as alcohols.
