ANSUL(r) line proportioners are designed to introduce a controlled flow of foam concentrate into a pressurized water stream. Proportioners may operate with inlet pressures as low as 80 psi (552 kPa) however, in most systems a water pressure between 125 psig and 200 psig is required. The proportioners are available in a wide range of sizes for fixed foam system applications.

ANSUL line proportioners are designed to introduce a controlled flow of
foam concentrate into a pressurized water stream. They provide an inex-
pensive foam proportioning means for systems requiring fixed flow rates and where available water supply pressures are adequate. Depending on specific foam systems design, line proportioners may operate with inlet pressures as low as 80 psi (552 kPa). However, in most systems a water pressure between 125 psi and 200 psi (862 and 1379 kPa) is required. The flow rate and operating pressure required at the foam making device are of primary importance in determining the required line proportioner inlet pressure. The line proportioner must match the flow rate of the foam making discharge device. ANSUL model PL line proportioners can be used with all types of foam concentrates. The proportioners are available in a wide range of sizes for fixed foam system applications. These applications also require an atmospheric foam concentrate storage tank as shown in the Typical Line Proportioning System schematic. Portable line proportioners with fire hose thread connections (typically for use with matched handline nozzles) are also available for the PL-60 through PL-350 sizes. Typical applications include use by municipal fire departments and CFR type vehicles, or with fixed systems, for protecting flammable liquid storage tanks, loading racks, dike areas, and anywhere flammable liquids are used, stored, processed, or transported. Each ANSUL line proportioner consists of a body, jet, throat, and meter- ing orifice all of which are corrosion-resistant brass. The line proportioner body is designed with a female NPT threaded inlet and a male NPT threaded outlet (see Line Proportioner Dimensions). The proportioner body is clearly marked with a flow direction arrow and the designed concentration percentage. The inlet jet is secured by a stainless steel retaining ring on models PL-60 through PL-350; the inlet jet is threaded in place on models PL-420 through PL-730. The metering orifice or adjustable metering valve is sized according to the type and percentage of foam concentrate used. The metering orifice is secured with a stainless steel retaining ring to enable ease of change-over to other concentrate percentages. In fixed systems the line proportioner may be mounted at a maximum distance of 8 ft (2.4 m) above the minimum foam liquid surface. The line proportioner body, jet, and throat shall be of brass construction. Retaining rings for both the inlet jet and the metering orifice shall be stainless steel. The line proportioner body shall have a female NPT inlet and male NPT outlet (see Line Proportioner Dimensions). The body shall be clearly marked with a flow direction arrow and the percentage of foam concen- trate that the proportioner was designed to provide. The convergent inlet jet shall have a rounded inlet and a smooth machined finish to ensure minimum friction loss. It shall be retained by a stainless steel retaining ring or shall be threaded in place. The inlet jet shall terminate in the foam concentrate annulus chamber, and shall be concentric with and set back from the throat and pressure recovery section. Line proportioner outlet pressure recovery shall be 65% of the inlet pressure. The line proportioner shall be approved for mounting up to a maximum height of 8 ft (2.4 m) above the minimum foam liquid surface. The foam concentrate metering orifice shall be machined to the proper diameter for the agent. It shall rest on a machined surface to prevent leakage and shall be secured by a removable stainless steel retaining ring.

The line proportioner must not be mounted more than 8 ft (2.4 m) above the minimum foam concentrate liquid level as shown in Figure 1. 2. Downstream pipe, fittings, elevation head, and discharge devices must not result in line proportioner outlet backpressure in excess of 65% of line proportioner inlet pressure. (Consult with the system designer to verify.) 3. A check valve must be installed in the foam concentrate line with the direction of flow from the foam concentrate storage tank to the line proportioner. (See Figure 1.) 4. A shutoff valve in the foam concentrate line is recommended to enable flush out of foam solution piping or allow for water only discharge. (See Figure 1.) 5. Piping to foam concentrate inlet must be sized to match the foam concentrate inlet piping size. (See Figure 2, Dimension B.) 6. ANSUL recommends that the foam concentrate inlet line not exceed 11 ft (3.4 m) of pipe, two 90elbows, one swing check valve, and one nonrestricting shutoff valve. NOTICE Exceeding foam concentrate line limitations or using pipe sizes smaller than the foam concentrate inlet of the line proportioner may reduce concentration percentages.

Ansul Incorporated Marinette, WI 54143-2542 715-735-7411 www.ansul.com An atmospheric foam concentrate storage tank is one component of a foam proportioning system. The high density cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) storage tanks supplied by ANSUL are compatible with all ANSUL foam concentrates including ANSULITE AFFF, ANSULITE Alcohol Resistant AFFF, JET-X High Expansion, SILV-EX, along with ANSUL 3% Protein and Fluoroprotein concentrates. Because of the excellent properties of XLPE relating to stress crack resistance, impact strength, light weight and overall toughness, poly tanks are an excellent choice for many foam system applications. An atmospheric concentrate tank is typically used in conjunction with an ANSUL balanced pressure pump proportioning skid unit or in-line balanced pressure proportion- ing system. Additionally, similar tanks could be used with an ANSUL line proportioning system. The atmospheric poly foam concentrate tanks are supplied with fittings as shown on drawings enclosed. There are two (2) return fittings provided on all tanks located 180 degrees apart to enable ease and flex- ibility for piping on site. Either connection can be used as the foam concentrate return with the other return connection having the provided pipe plug installed. The poly tanks are translucent and have a level gauge strip for approximating tank contents. Optional tank trim components are also available including: Tank Trim Package (2 in. pressure/vacuum vent and 1 1/2 in. drain valve) Low Liquid Level Float Switch normally open or normally closed contact Flex Connectors (1 1/2 in. 6 in.) Seismic Restraints (Contact Ansul Technical Services for details.) Poly tanks of alternate sizes and configurations are also available. ANSUL can also provide tanks in fiberglass, carbon steel, and stainless steel. Contact ANSUL Applications Engineering Department for addi- tional information.

Morrison tank vents are designed only for use on shop fabricated atmospheric tanks which have been built and tested in accordance with UL 142, NFPA 30 & 30A, and API 650 and in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal laws. In normal operation, dust and debris can accumulate in vent openings and block air passages. Certain atmospheric conditions such as a sudden drop in temperature, below freezing temperatures, and freezing rain can cause moisture to enter the vent and freeze which can restrict internal movement of vent mechanisms and block air passages. All storage tank vent air passages must be completely free of restriction and all vent mechanisms must have free movement in order to insure proper operation. Any restriction of airflow can cause excessive pressure or vacuum to build up in the storage tank, which can result in structural damage to the tank, fuel spillage, property damage, fire, injury, and death. Monthly inspection, and immediate inspection during freezing conditions, by someone familiar with the proper operation of storage tank vents, is required to insure venting devices are functioning properly before filling or unloading a tank. WARNING: Normal vents such as pressure vacuum and updraft vents for aboveground storage tanks should be sized according to NFPA 30 (2008) 21.4.3 Fig. 548 Pressure/Vacuum Vents Morrison Bros. Co. Specification Sheet The Morrison Fig. 548 pressure/vacuum vent with gauge hatch is designed for normal venting of Aboveground Storage Tanks. It allows tanks to breathe during filling and withdrawing operations. Pressure/ Vacuum poppets seal vapors in the tank when pressure is equalized. This vent must be used in conjunction with an emergency vent and it is recommended that the opening pressure setting is set below that of the emergency vent so the normal vent relieves first. P.O.

ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF (Aqueous Film-Forming Foam) Concentrate is formulated from specialty fluorochemical and hydrocar- bon surfactants along with solvents. It is transported and stored as a concentrate to provide ease of use and considerable savings in weight and space. It is intended for use as a 6% proportioned solution in fresh, salt or hard water. It may also be used and stored as a 6% premixed solution in fresh or potable water only. The correct proportioning or mixture ratio is 6 parts of concentrate to 94 parts of water. Three fire extinguishment mechanisms are in effect when using ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate. First, an aqueous film is formed which works to help prevent the release of fuel vapor. Second, the foam blanket from which the film-forming liquid drains effectively excludes oxygen from the fuel surface. Third, the water content of the foam provides a cooling effect. Physiochemical Properties at 77 F (25 C) Appearance Colorless to Pale Yellow Liquid Density 1.013 g/ml 0.020 pH 7.0 8.5 Refractive Index 1.3390 0.0030 Surface Tension (6% Solution) 18 1 dynes/cm Viscosity 2 1 centistokes ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate is intended for use on Class B hydrocarbon fuel fires having low water solubility such as various crude oils, gasolines, diesel fuels, aviation fuels, etc. It is not suitable for use on fuels having appreciable water solubility (polar solvents), i.e., methyl and ethyl alcohol, acetone, and methyl ethyl ketone. It can be used with both aspirating and non-aspirating discharge devices because of the low energy required to make it foam. Its excellent wetting characteristics make it useful in combating Class A fires as well. It can be used with dry chemical extinguishing agents without regard to the order of application to provide even greater fire protection capability. Fire Performance The fire performance of ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate is measured against specifications and standards such as U.S. Military Specification MIL-F-24385 but is not on the Qualified Product List (QPL). ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate has been tested to Underwriters Laboratories Standard 162. Reports covering this fire performance are available on request since standards and specifications such as those cited are continuously being upgraded and changed. Foaming Properties When used with fresh, salt, or hard water at the correct dilution with most conventional foam making equipment, the expansion will vary depending on the performance characteristics of the equipment. Aspirating discharge devices produce expansion ratios of from 6:1 to 10:1 depending primarily on type and flow rate. Subsurface injection generally produces expansion ratios of 2:1 to 3:1. Non-aspirat- ing devices such as handline water fog/stream nozzles or standard sprinkler heads give expansion ratios of 2:1 to 4:1. Proportioning ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate can be proportioned easily at the correct dilution using most conventional proportioning equipment such as: 1. Balanced pressure and in-line balanced pressure pumped proportion- ing equipment 2. Balanced pressure bladder tank type proportioner 3. Around-the-pump type proportioners 4. Fixed or portable (in-line) venturi type proportioners 5. Handline nozzles with fixed induction/ pickup tubes The minimum and maximum usable temperatures for ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate in this equipment is 35 F (2 C) to 120 F (49 C) respectively. Storage/Shelf Life When stored in the packaging supplied (polyethyl- ene drums or pails) or in equipment recommended by the manufacturer as part of the foam system and within the temperature limits specified the shelf life of ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate is about 20-25 years. The factors affecting shelf life and stability for ANSULITE AFFF Agents are discussed in detail in Ansul Technical Bulletin No. 54. If the product is frozen during storage or transportation, thawing will render the product completely usable. Compatibility Ansul has conducted testing with admixtures of different manufacturers 6% AFFF products in varying proportions and is satisfied that the ANSULITE 6% AFFF is compatible with these products. Refer to Ansul Technical Bulletin No. 48 for a more detailed discussion of compatibility. Different types of foam concentrates, i.e., AFFF, protein base, etc., should not be mixed under any circumstances. Materials of Construction Compatibility Tests have been performed with ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate verifying its compatibility with standard carbon steel black pipe and pipe manufactured from various stainless steel or brass compounds. Alternative pipe, fittings, and valves may be used in some cases if acceptable to the customer and/or the authority having jurisdiction. Galvanized pipe and fittings must not be used in areas where undiluted concentrate will contact them since corrosion will result. Refer to Ansul Technical Bulletin No. 59 addressing acceptable materials of construction for use with ANSUL foam concentrates. Inspection As with any fire extinguishing agent, ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate, whether in the concentrate or pre-mixed form should be inspected periodically. Please refer to the Field Inspection Manual, Ansul Part No. 31274, for the detailed procedures to perform this inspection. An annual inspection is recommended unless unusual conditions of exposure occur, such as are described in Ansul Technical Bulletin No. 54. In such cases, ANSULs recommendation should be sought. PERFORMANCE APPLICATION DESCRIPTION ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF CONCENTRATE Data/Specifications ANSULITE 6% (AFC-3) AFFF Concentrate is approved, qualified under, listed or meets the requirements of the following specifications and stan- dards: Underwriters Laboratories Inc. UL Standard 162 1. Foam Quality Tests 2. Class B Hydrocarbon Fuel Fire Tests 3. Foam Identification Tests 4. Tests of Shipping Containers 5. Class B Hydrocarbon Fuel Sprinkler Test (Foam water type both upright and pendent approvals only) It is impractical for ANSUL to list its ANSULITE 6% agents with every piece of UL Iisted hardware. Moreover, there are numerous foam hard- ware components without UL Iistings that cannot be listed for use with any AFFF agent. Many unlisted pieces of foam hardware should be similar to those listed. However, on installations where ANSULITE 6% may be used with hard- ware components of significantly different types than those tested, contact ANSUL for recommendations. ANSULITE 6% AFC-3 AFFF Concentrate is available in pails, drums, totes, or bulk shipment.
