Portable Self-Contained Aqueous Foam System for Generating High-Expansion Foam

摘要

A portable self-contained aqueous foam system for safeguards and security application has been designed and tested at Sandia. The foam system was designed to fill room or hallway volumes up to 2000 cu ft with high-expansion aqueous foam. This foam system is unique because of its use of a newly developed, premixed, one-component foam solution and its packaging into a single portable unit. This report describes and documents the system design and its operating characteristics. It also provides some insight into possible application for this type of activated denial system.
