Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to fire suppression systems and methods, and more particularly to fire suppression nozzles, nozzle assemblies, and methods for fluorine free firefighting solutions.
  • Conventional fire protection systems for extinguishing fires on the surface of aircraft runways, aircraft hangers, helicopter landing pads ("helipads"), or the like include nozzles that typically spray film forming foam solutions on the fire such as, for example, an aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) solution, a film forming fluoroprotein foam (FFFP) solution, an alcohol resistant concentrate (ARC) solution, a fluoroprotein foam (FP) solution, or some other film forming foam solution.
  • the solutions are typically 94% to 99% water with the remaining percentage being the foam concentrate.
  • many such film forming foam solutions contained C8-based fluorinated surfactants.
  • C8-based fluorinated surfactants in firefighting foams has been dramatically reduced, either voluntarily or by government regulations. This is because C8-based fluorinated surfactants can degrade into per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) such as, for example, perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), which are considered to be persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT).
  • PFAS per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances
  • PFOS perfluorooctane sulfonate
  • PFOA perfluorooctanoic acid
  • FF foam solutions are being considered as alternatives to C8-based foam solutions in fire suppression systems.
  • the FF foam solutions are typically 94% to 99% water with the remaining percentage being the foam concentrate.
  • Fluorine free as used herein means the foam liquid concentrate does not intentionally contain any component that comprises fluorine other than trace or residual amounts.
  • the UL standard provides requirements for foam producing equipment and liquid concentrates for production and discharge of foam that has an expansion ratio of 20:1 or less and is used for fire extinguishing.
  • the foam is a fire fighting agent that is made by mechanically mixing air with a solution consisting of mixture of fresh and/or salt water and a foam liquid concentrate.

  • a fluorine-free liquid concentrate would be defined as a synthetic under Section 4.16(e) of the UL Standard.
  • FF liquid concentrate synthetic solution
  • the testing FF liquid concentrate must meet the requirements of Sections 12.1.2 - 12.3.5 and 12.4.3 - 12.5.6 of the UL Standard.
  • foam quality e.g., foam expansion value and drain time
  • foam expansion value and drain time the foam quality from nozzles that discharge FF foam solutions must be compliant with the foam quality of a FF foam solution that has already passed a topside discharge and fire test of Section 12.
  • the foam expansion value should not be more than one expansion unit below (or more than 10 percent below, if this is a greater amount) nor more than two expansion units above (or not more than 20 percent above, if this is a greater amount) the manufacturer's value.
  • the 25 percent drain time is not more than 1 minute shorter (or not more than 10 percent shorter, if this is a greater amount) nor more than 2 minutes longer (or not more than 20 percent longer, if this is a greater amount) than the manufacturer's 25-percent drain time.
  • the 25 percent drain time for the full scale equipment be: 1) Less than 30 seconds, or 2) Less than the drain time value obtained from the special fire test equipment, whichever is less.
  • the FM Standard relates to fixed fire extinguisher systems that use aqueous foam as the extinguishant.
  • the FM Standard defines an aqueous film-forming foam as a foam produced from a synthetic concentrate and that forms an aqueous vapor barrier film on the surface of liquids immiscible in water, and is measured to have a spreading coefficient greater than zero.
  • approval of a system is based upon its ability to proportion a concentrate accurately into water and to produce and deliver a foam from the resulting foam solution, the quality of which is within the limits of expansion ratio and 25 percent drainage time of foams demonstrating successful performance in fire extinguishing tests.

Spatially relative terms may be intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as “below” or “beneath” other elements or features would then be oriented “above” the other elements or features.
