Solberg EVOLUTION 3% SFFF Mil-Spec Fluorine Free Foam
Details
SOLBERG® EVOLUTION 3% SFFF
SOLBERG® EVOLUTION 3% SFFF (patent pending) is a first-of-its-kind Newtonian product for Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) and Sprinkler Application with Mil-Spec approval. Designed using a proprietary combination of hydrocarbon surfactants and additives, it delivers rapid knockdown and fire extinguishing performance on hydrocarbon fuels, including gasoline and kerosene-based fuels like Jet A and Jet A-1. The Newtonian viscosity makes system design calculations and transitioning simpler, and the formula contains no silicone/siloxane chemistries, biopolymers, thickening agents, or intentionally added per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
Key Features:
- Meets MIL-PRF-32725
- First Mil-Spec approved fluorine-free foam with approval on hydrocarbon fuels using standard sprinkler heads
- Sprinkler Application - UL 162 Listed (aspirated and non-aspirated)
- FM Approved
- ICAO Level B Certified
- GreenScreen Certified Silver® (Pending)
- Positive spreading coefficient on jet fuel
- Biodegradable and non-persistent
- Newtonian viscosity makes for easy proportioning and engineering system design calculations
- Compatible with multiple equipment systems
- Contains no siloxanes, biopolymers or thickening agents
Applications:
- Fast knockdown and extinguishment of hydrocarbon fuels, including gasoline and kerosene-based fuels like Jet A and Jet A-1
- Meets MIL-PRF-32725, UL 162, and FM 5130 through non-aspirated and aspirated standard sprinklers to extinguish and secure Class B hydrocarbon fuels
- Compatible with low-expansion discharge devices, including a variety of nozzles and monitors
- Easily proportioned using standard firefighting equipment, including in-line inductors, self-inducting nozzles, fire truck pumps, bladder tanks, pump skids, balanced pressure systems, and standard sprinkler heads according to UL 162 and FM 5130
