Deluge Fire Sprinkler System
A foam deluge system is similar to a conventional deluge system
except AR-AFFF foam is mixed in the water supply.
As with conventional
deluge systems, sprinkler heads are open and the pipe is
not pressurized with air. Foam Deluge systems are connected
to
a water supply through
a deluge valve that is opened by the operation of a smoke
or
heat detection system. Foam is mixed in with the water supply
from a foam bladder tank. The detection system is installed
in the same area as the sprinklers. When
the
detection system is activated foam water discharges through
all of the sprinkler
heads
in the
system.
Foam Deluge systems are used in places that are considered
high hazard areas such as power
plants, off shore oil rigs, aircraft
hangars
and chemical storage or processing facilities.
