Fire fighting foams
FireDos – THE NEXT GENERATION. FireDos: The next generation
FireDos – the creator and technical market leader of the globally known water-driven foam agent proportioners for firefighting is presenting the next level of evolution. The original concept consisting of a water motor and a piston pump for all types, including extremely high-viscous alcohol-resistant and fluorine-free foam agents, has been further developed. FireDos has delivered more than 12 000 units to customers worldwide. All of them value the products’ quality, reliability, longevity and efficiency. We now proudly announce the new generation of FireDos proportioners:

All existing advantages over other foam proportioners remain: • Independent of external energy, driven just by the water flow. • Suitable for all foam agents, also extremely highviscous and alcohol-resistant foam agents, due to the specially designed proportioning pump. • Efficient: testing the proportioning rate without generating foam or premix! • Environmentally friendly by passing the foam agent back while testing. • No time limits when fighting fires as the separate, unpressurised foam agent tank can be refilled at any time. • Utmost proportioning rate precision, independent of foam agent type, water flow and water pressure. • Highest flexibility through optional proportioning rate setting without adjusting and calibrating.

The new generation is characterised by: • More compact and sturdy design while reducing weight and dimensions. • Pressure loss reduction by approximately 25 percent due to hydraulic optimisation by computational fluid dynamics simulation. • Further improved handling of fluorine-free foam agents, through notably better suction capacity. • Improved second generation cylinder cut-off for selecting the proportioning rate, with increased accuracy even under extreme system conditions. • Optimised pipework layout, entirely made of seawaterresistant stainless steel as a standard feature. • Improved accessibility of the standard fittings. • Even easier operation. • Made in Germany - water motor and pump by own design and own production. • Operational safety by long-term service commitment and spare parts supply. • ATEX type approval according to new harmonised standards DIN EN ISO 80079-36 and -37 for mechanical ex protection.
