Foam

High performance with minimal environmental impact
UniversalF3 Green is a unique, patented foam with no added fluorine, fluorosurfactants, fluoropolymers, organohalogen, PFAS, PFOA and PFOS. When environmental impact is a primary concern, UniversalF3 Green is ideal. It is biodegradable and is especially suited for emergency incidents where the containment of fire water runoff cannot be guaranteed.

Effective and efficient
UniversalF3 Green provides a vapor suppressing foam blanket on unignited hydrocarbon spills and polar solvents. It produces a vapor sealing blanket of foam that rapidly spreads over the surface of the fuel to efficiently control and extinguish the blaze. It is intended for use at 3% using standard foam proportioning equipment and should be used with air aspirating discharge devices such as low expansion branch nozzles.

Ideal for high-risk situations
UniversalF3 Green is ideal for use wherever oil, gasoline, diesel fuel, or aviation fuel are stored, processed, transported, or used. It can also be used on polar solvents such as alcohol, ketones, esters, and ethers. UniversalF3 Green can also be used for combating Class A fires.

Chemguard C137 1x3 AR-AFFF

Available in 5 Gallon Pails, 55 Gallon Drums and 265 Gallon Totes.

CHEMGUARD C137 1x3 AR-AFFF (Alcohol Resistant Aqueous Film-Forming Foam)
Concentrate combines fluoro- and hydrocarbon-surfactant technologies to provide superior fire and
vapor suppression for Class B, polar solvent, and hydrocarbon fuel fires.
This synthetic foam concentrate is intended for forceful or gentle firefighting applications at 1% solution
on hydrocarbon fuels and gentle firefighting applications at 3% solution on polar solvent fuels in fresh, salt, or hard water.

CHEMGUARD C137 foam solution utilizes three suppression mechanisms intended
for rapid fire knockdown and superior burnback resistance:

• The foam blanket blocks oxygen supply to the fuel.
  
• Liquid drains from the foam blanket and forms either:
  
• An aqueous film on a hydrocarbon fire, or
  
• A polymeric membrane on a polar solvent fire which suppresses the vapor and seals the fuel surface.
  
• The water content of the foam solution produces a cooling effect for additional fire suppression.
  

CHEMGUARD C137 Concentrate is a non-Newtonian fluid that is both pseudoplastic and thixotropic; therefore, dynamic viscosity will decrease as shear increases.

The CHEMGUARD C137 1x3 AR-AFFF
Concentrate formulation contains shortchain, C6 fluorochemicals manufactured using a telomer-based process that produces no PFOS.

Ansulite A1371%x3% AR-AFFF

Available in 5 Gallon Pails, 55 Gallon Drums and 265 Gallon Totes

Ansulite™ A137 1%x3% AR-AFFF (Alcohol-Resistant Aqueous Film Forming Foam)
Concentrate is formulated from special fluorochemical and hydrocarbon surfactants, a high molecular
weight polymer, and solvents. It contains no PFOS or PFOA. It is intended for use as a 1% proportioned
solution on hydrocarbon fuels and as a 3% proportioned solution on polar solvent fuels in fresh, salt, or
hard water. Water hardness should not exceed 500 ppm expressed as calcium and magnesium.

This agent can be use on conventional Class B hydrocarbon fuels such as gasoline, diesel fuel, etc. or a
Class B polar solvent (water miscible fuel) such as methyl alcohol, acetone, etc. Its excellent wetting
characteristics make it useful in combating Class A fires as well. Because of the low energy required to
make foam, it can be used with both aspirating and non-aspirating discharge devices. To provide even
greater fire protection capability, it may be used with Purple-K dry chemical extinguishing agents
without regard to the order of application to provide even greater fire protection capability.

ANSULITE A137 foam solution utilizes three suppression mechanisms intended for rapid fire knockdown and superior burnback resistance:

• The foam blanket blocks oxygen supply to the fuel.
  
• Liquid drains from the foam blanket and forms either:
  
• An aqueous film on a hydrocarbon fire, or
  
• A polymeric membrane on a polar solvent fire which
  

suppresses the vapor and seals the fuel surface.

• The water content of the foam solution produces a cooling
  

effect for additional fire suppression.

WILLIAMS FIRE & HAZARD CONTROL Plunging Test protocol.
In addition, THUNDERSTORM W813A qualifies as a C-6 Purity Compliant foam under the requirements
of the Queensland Department of Environmental and Heritage Protection’s Policy on the Environmental
Management of Firefighting Foam.

Application

THUNDERSTORM W813A 1x3 AR-AFFF Concentrate is intended for use on both types of Class B fires:
hydrocarbon fuels with low water solubility, such as crude oils, gasolines, diesel fuels, and aviation
fuels; and polar solvent fuels with appreciable water solubility, such as methyl and ethyl alcohol,
acetone, and methyl ethyl ketone. The concentrate also has excellent wetting properties that can
effectively combat Class A fires.

To provide even greater fire protection capability, THUNDERSTORM W813A foam solution may be
applied simultaneously with dry chemical for a twin-agent system. When using twin-agent application
on polar solvent fuels, care must be taken with the velocity of the dry chemical discharge to minimize
submergence of the polymeric membrane below the fuel surface.

THUNDERSTORM W813A Concentrate can be ideal for emergency response and semi-fixed firefighting
applications such as:

• Flammable liquid in depth and spill fires
  
• Fuel or chemical storage tanks
  
• Industrial chemical and petroleum processing facilities
  
• Truck/rail loading and unloading facilities
  
• Mobile equipment
