Class A Foam Concentrate
Chemguard CA+ foam concentrate is a combination of foaming and
wetting agents for use on wood, paper, textiles, wild land fires, wooden
structures, and more. It is used at application rates ranging from 0.1% to 1.0 percent. CA+ is 3 to 5 times more effective than plain
water. The concentrate is also biodegradable, non-corrosive, and
nontoxic. (The Material Safety Data Sheet is available
here.)
CA+ is FULLY APPROVED by the U.S.D.A. Forest Service as meeting ALL of the
requirements of Forest Specification 5100-307. It is a
non-corrosive, non-toxic biodegradable Class A fire fighting foam concentrate.
Class B Foam Concentrate
Chemguard C363 is a Class B, alcohol resistant, aqueous film
forming foam concentrate that is designed to be used on regular hydrocarbons
(gasoline) at 3% and polar solvents (such as alcohol) at a 6% application rate.
It is the "industry standard" foam concentrate. (The Material Safety Data
Sheet is available
here.)
Akron 3095 Foam Eductor
This is an inline, 95 gallon per minute foam eductor. It is capable of
educting at foam concentrate at rates from 0 to 6% with handy detents at 1/4,
1/2, 1, 3, and 6%. It comes with a 30" long pickup tube.
Protek 203 Foam Eductor
This is an inline, 95 gallon per minute foam eductor which is calibrated to work
equally well with Class A and Class B concentrates. It can mix the
concentrate with water from 0 to 6% solution. The pickup tube is a full 72
inches long!
FoamPro 1600
Leading off the FoamPro
line, the 1600 series is available in two models, differing only in capacity.
Each system includes a Hypro twin plunger pump and DC (12 or 24 volt) motor
assembly. Also included is a panel-mounted operator control unit
with instructions, flowmeter (1-1/2” or 2”), strainer, foam injection check
valve, complete shielded cable set and RFI/EMI suppression kit.
The system features fully automatic foam proportioning,
regardless of changes in flow or pressure, and delivers unmatched accuracy
over the entire flow range. It proportions continuously, with no stopping to
refill the foam tanks.

FoamPro 2000
The 2000 series is available in two models, differing only in capacity. Each
system includes a Hypro triplex plunger pump and DC (12 or 24 volt) motor
assembly. Also included are a microprocessor control/display unit, instruction
placard, strainer, foam injection check valve, complete shielded cable set and
RFI/EMI suppression kit. The system provides fully automatic foam proportioning,
regardless of changes in flow or pressure, and offers convenient, push-button
operation, making it the easiest system to use. LED digital readouts provide
real time performance information. The optional advanced feature controller
offers “auto-on” programming which automatically arms the proportioner when the
fire pump is engaged.

FoamPro 3000
Extreme Class A and Class B firefighting power is at your fingertips with the
FoamPro 3012 proportioner. This versatile system delivers unmatched,
supercharged performance with concentrate flow from 0.1 to 12.0 gpm at 0-400
psi, all from a single pump. High-drafting capabilities allow off-board pickup
for foam operations or tank refill, which is crucial for high flow situations or
when changing concentrates. Unlike other pump designs that may pause in flow
during operation, the pump’s triplex plungers are timed to discharge one after
the other, delivering smooth, continuous injection. New, hydraulic pump-drive
technology produces immediate response from minimum flow to full capacity. The
system includes the same industry-proven, ultra-bright LED digital display used
on other FoamPro 2000 and 3000 series proportioners.

foam capability to their equipment.
The unit is adjustable, permitting various foam percentages to be inducted
depending on the nozzles being used. A 4071 includes the eductor, pressure hose
and pick-up hose.
