Fire Extinguishing Agents, Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) Liquid Concentration Partial Percentage.

摘要

The objective of this test series was to qualify 3/4 and 1 percent Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) concentrate for use in Air Force fire fighting vehicles. Specific objectives were: (1) Determine the availability of AFFF in 3/4 and 1 percent concentrations from manufacturers on the Qualified Products List (QPL); (2) Evaluate 3/4 and 1 percent AFFF from each manufacturer in accordance with MIL-F-24385C test procedures and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 412; (3) Determine the compatibility of the concentrates with existing Air Force fire fighting vehicles (P-2, P-4 and P- 19). Demonstrate that these vehicles can adequately meter these fractional percentage concentrates; (4) Conduct a minimum of 12 large-scale (8,000 sq ft) JP-4 pool fire tests to compare the effectiveness of the reduced percentage AFFF concentrates with existing 3 percent concentrates; (5) Revise MIL-F-24385C to include production specifications for 3/4 and 1 percent AFFF concentrations.
