Rapid control and suppression of a fire in a flammable liquid storage tank is essential to minimize structural damage and protect its contents.
Regardless of the type of tank – cone, fixed roof, open, closed or floating, vertical or horizontal – and the type of hazard, whether it is hydrocarbons or polar solvents, the products SKUM are designed to provide effective fire protection in most flammable liquid storage applications.
SKUM tank protection solutions include:
- SKUM fixed foam generators, which quickly applies foam directly to the surface of the fuel, creating a protective blanket that suppresses vapors and prevents the fire from reigniting.
- SKUM underground injection systems, which discharges foam into the bottom of closed fuel tanks. The foam rises to the surface of the fuel, suppressing the fire and preventing it from spreading.
