FAQs of Foam Inductor:
Q: How does the foam inductor work during firefighting operations?
A: The inductor applies the Venturi principle to mix foam concentrate (36%) with water as it rushes through a fire hose or sprinkler. This rapid mixing creates firefighting foam that is effective on both Class A and B fires.
Q: What are the benefits of the aluminium alloy body with epoxy coating?
A: The combination of aluminium alloy and epoxy coating delivers robust resistance to corrosion, lightweight handling, and durability, ensuring the inductor performs reliably even in rigorous environments.
Q: When should this foam inductor be installed and used?
A: It should be attached inline with the firefighting hose or sprinkler system whenever foam-based extinguishing is required, especially for Class A and B fire incidents where rapid foam deployment is crucial.
Q: Where can I use this foam inductor?
A: This unit can be utilized across various firefighting scenarios, including industrial sites, warehouses, or outdoor fires, and is compatible with most low and medium expansion foam concentrates.
Q: What is the installation process for this foam inductor?
A: Installation is straightforward: connect the inductor using standard or customer-specified 63 mm BSP couplings to the water supply line, attach the detachable suction tube into the foam concentrate, and begin operation.
Q: How is maintenance and cleaning handled?
A: After use, detach the suction tube, flush the system with clean water, and wipe down the inductors surface. The design enables easy access to each component, facilitating efficient cleaning and longevity.
Q: What is the flow rate capacity and range of supported foam pick-up?
A: The inductor supports foam concentrate pick-up rates between 5 LPM and 450 LPM, ensuring flexibility for small and large firefighting operations alike.
