Fire Hydrant System,System Information,Operational Information,Fire Alarm System ......
Being one of the oldest but yet the most effective and common fire fighting solution, a well designed and a well laid out Hydrant System forms the backbone of the entire fire fighting system. It comprises of heavy duty above & underground piping with accessories. External and Fire Escape Hydrant valves are provided at every strategic location. A fire hydrant is a pipe that allows water to flow from a water main with the control of a valve in order to put out a fire.
A fire sprinkler system is an active fire protection measure, consisting of a water supply system, providing adequate pressure and flow rate to a water distribution piping system, onto which fire sprinklers are connected
An automatic sprinkler system is intended to detect, control and extinguish a fire, and warn the occupants of occurrence of fire. The installation comprises fire pumps, water storage tanks, control valve sets, sprinkler heads, flow switches, pressure switches, pipe work and valves. The system operates automatically without human intervention.
It has become more apparent over the years how important it is to have adequate fire protection in every building. For most people (Non-technical), what comes to mind when they think of fire protection are Sprinkler system, smoke detectors and fire extinguishers. However, these two elements only cover a small portion of the protection services you should have at all times. There are in fact two types of fire protection: Active Fire Protection (AFP) and Passive Fire Protection (PFP). One type of protection must not be chosen over the other. On the contrary, both AFP and PFP must be used together for full fire protection. It is important to understand the difference between AFP and PFP so that you are confident that your building is protected by both types.

V 1 presentation on safety aspects of lpg handling and storageImran Bokhari
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a mixture of Propane and Butanes, with Propane content of 30 to 60 percent and Butanes content of 40 to 70 percent. LPG can exist in liquid state at moderate pressure at ambient temperature. It is colorless, odorless, highly volatile and heavier than air (even at ambient conditions) substance. It easily forms combustible/explosive mixture when released in air, thus posing unique safety issues. Besides being a combustible substance posing fire hazard, LPG due to its nature also poses threats of cold burns and suffocation. LPG is being extensively used as fuel in homes, restaurants, transportation and some industries. In this presentation we have discussed in detail a major HSE related incident that have occurred in the past and mitigation strategies for the same. The required safety devices and their engineering design features in LPG extraction plant to avoid accidents are also discussed.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

chpter 9 FOAM & FOAM MAKING EQUIPMENTS.pptx
1. UNIT 8 :FOAM & FOAM MAKING EQUIPMENTS
Definitions:
Foam: “A stable aggregation of small bubbles of lower density than oil or water that
exhibits firmness for covering horizontal surfaces.”
Foam concentrate: is a liquid which, when mixed with water in the appropriate
concentration, gives a foam solution.
water Form concentrate AIr
Bubbles/Finish
ed form
2. Properties of Foams
Expansion: the amount of finished foam produced from a foam solution when it is passed through
foam-making equipment.
Stability: the ability of the finished foam to retain its liquid content and to maintain the number, size
and shape of its bubbles.
Fluidity: the ability of the finished foam to be projected on to, and to flow across, the liquid to be
extinguished and/or protected.
Contamination resistance: the ability of the finished foam to resist contamination by the liquid to
which it is applied.
Sealing and resealing: the ability of the foam blanket to reseal after breaks occur and its ability to
seal against hot and irregular shaped objects.
Knockdown and extinction: the ability of the finished foam to control and extinguish fires.
Burn-back resistance: the ability of the finished foam, once formed on the fuel, to stay intact when
subjected to heat and/or flame.
3.
4. The performance of firefighting foams can be greatly influenced by:
The type of foam-making equipment used and the way it is operated and maintained
The type of foam concentrate used
The type of fire and the fuel involved.
The tactics of foam application.
The rate at which the foam is applied.
The quality of the water used.
5. Techniques of Extinguishment by Foam
. Foam works in the following ways:
The foam blankets the fuel surface smothering the fire.
The foam blanket separates the flames/ignition source from the fuel surface.
The foam cools the fuel and any adjacent metal surfaces.
The foam blanket suppresses the release of flammable vapors that can mix with air.
6. Types of Foam in Use
Fluoroprotein (FP) foams are formed by the addition of protein of special fluorochemical surfactants
to form concentation that reduce the surface tension of foam solution and allow more fluid movement.
Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF) replaces protein-based foams with synthetic foaming agents
added . Designed for rapid knockdown, AFFFs less heat resistance and long-term stability
Film-Forming Fluoroprotein Foam (FFFP) is a protein-based foam with the more advanced
fluorochemical surfactants of AFFF. FFFPs combine the burnback resistance of fluoroprotein foam
with the knockdown power of AFFF.
Alcohol-Resistant (AR) foam is a combination of synthetic stabilizers and synthetic polymers
designed for use on polar solvents like water and alcohol . The chemical makeup of these foams
prevents the polar solvents from destroying them.
7.
8. Mechanical foam making Equipment- High, Medium and Low
Foam Production: Finished foam is produced from three main ingredients; foam concentrate, water
and air. There are usually two stages in its production. The first stage is to mix foam concentrate
with water to produce a foam solution. The foam concentrate must be mixed into the water in the
correct proportions (usually expressed as a percentage) in order to ensure maximum performance.
This proportioning is normally carried out by the use of inductors (or proportioners) or other
similar equipment. This results in the production of a 'premix' foam solution
Occasionally, premix solutions are produced by mixing the correct proportions of water and foam
concentrate in a container, such as an appliance tank, prior to pumping to the foam making
equipment. In addition, some types of foam-making equipment are fitted with a means of picking up
foam concentrate at the equipment; these are known as 'self inducing' with the mixing taking place in
the foammaking equipment itself.
9. The second stage is the addition of air to the foam solution to make bubbles (aspiration) to produce
the finished foam. The amount of air added depends on the type of equipment used. Hand-held foam-
making branches generally only mix relatively small amounts of air into the foam solution.
Consequently, these produce finished foam with low expansion (LX) ratios, that is to say, is 20:1 or less.
Other equipment is available which can produce medium expansion foam (MX) with expansion ratios
of more than 20:1 but less than 200:1, and high expansion foam (HX) with expansion ratios of more
than 200:1 and possibly in excess of 1000:1.
10. LX Hand-held Foam-making Branches
Figure below illustrates the principal features of a typical hand-held LX foam-making branch.
In the diagram, there are two orifice plates. The upstream orifice is the larger of the two and its
function is to create turbulence in the space between the two orifice plates so that when the jet
issues from the downstream orifice, it rapidly breaks up into a dense spray. The spray fills the
narrow inlet section of the foammaking tube and entrains large quantities of air through the air
inlet holes
11. Most foam-making branches have a narrow section at the inlet end in which the air
entrainment takes place, and then a wider section in which the foam forms.
The wider section of the foam- making tube sometimes contains 'improvers' (e.g. semicircular baffles)
which are designed to work the foam solution in order to produce longer draining finished foam. The
drawback of using improvers is that the extra working of the foam that they cause, uses energy from
the foam stream resulting in a reduction in the distance that the finished foam can be thrown.
At the outlet, the branch is reduced in diameter to increase the exit velocity, thus helping the
finished foam to be thrown an effective distance. The design here is crucial; too narrow an outlet
produces back pressure which results in less air entrainment and finished foam of very low expansion ratio
and very short drainage times. If the outlet is too large, the expansion is higher but the throw is reduced.
12. LX Hand-held Hose reel Foam Unit:
This consists of a portable able hand-held unit, similar to an extinguisher (see Figure), which can contain
up to 11 litres of foam concentrate.
An appliance hose reel is connected to an adaptor at the top of the unit and water is supplied at between
2 and 10.5 bar.
A small proportion of the water is diverted to fill a completely deflated flexible bag within the container.
Inflation of the bag displaces the foam concentrate via a siphon tube, the concentrate entering the main
water stream and passing to an integral LX foam-making branch to give a jet of primary aspirated foam.
The unit is controlled via an on/off valve on the adaptor.
13. LX Foam Generators:
As an alternative to a foam-making branch, a LX foam generator may be used. This, when inserted
in to a line of hose, induces appropriate amounts of foam concentrate and air into the water
stream to generate finished foam, which is then delivered through the hose. The equipment can
only work against limited back pressure, so the length and size of the hose between the generator and
branch, and the size of the branch, need to be carefully selected.
14. LX Foam Monitors:
Primary aspirating LX foam monitors are larger versions of foam-making branches which cannot be
hand-held. They may be free-standing and portable, mounted on trailers or mounted on appliances.
They usually have multiple water connections, and may be self-inducing. They can also be found in fixed
installations at oil-tanker jetties and refineries or as oscillating monitors in aircraft hangars.
There are numerous LX foam monitors in use coming in a wide range of nominal flow and inlet pressure
requirements. One example has a nominal flow requirement of approximately 1800 liter/minute at an
inlet pressure of 7 bars and is claimed by the manufacturer to have a maximum horizontal range of 50
metres and a maximum height of throw of 18 metres
15. MX Hand-held Foam-making Branches:
Medium expansion foam-making branches are generally designed to be used with SYNDET foam
concentrates although other types, such as FP, AFFF, AFFF-AR, FFFP and FFFP-AR, may also be used.
MX foam-making branches will produce foam at expansions usually ranging from 25: 1 to 150: 1. As
a result of these higher expansion ratios the projection distances of MX foam are much less than for
LX foam, With MX foam-making branches, an in-line inductor is generally used to introduce the foam
concentrate as a premix.
The branch then diffuses and aerates the stream of foam solution, and projects it through a mesh to
produce bubbles of a uniform size. MX hand-held branches in use typically have nominal flow
requirements ranging from 225 litre/minute to 450 liter/minute. The expansion ratio of the foam
produced is usually claimed by the manufacturers to be in the region of 65:1 with throws ranging
from 3 to 12 metres.
16.
17. HX Foam Generators
High expansion foam generators are designed to be used with SYNDET foam concentrate only
and usually produce finished foams of expansion ratios of 200: 1 to 1200: 1. Air is blown
through the generator by a fan, foam solution is sprayed into the air stream, and this is directed
onto the surface of a fine net screen. The air blowing through the net wetted with foam
solution produces finished foam with a mass of bubbles of uniform size.
The generator fan may be powered by:
a petrol engine;
an electric motor;
a water turbine which utilises the flowing foam solution immediately prior to it being sprayed
into the generator.
18. Foam Concentrate Induction and Injection Equipment
Foam concentrate induction and injection equipment is used to introduce foam concentrate
into the water supply in order to produce foam solution. There is a need for this equipment to
work accurately in order to avoid wastage of foam concentrate and, more importantly, to help
to ensure that the finished foam is of optimum quality
Eductor (Inductor): A device that uses the Venturi principle to introduce a proportionate quantity of foam
concentrates into a water stream. The pressure at the foam concentrate inlet is below atmospheric
pressure and will draw in liquid from storage
19. In-line inductors: An in-line inductor is placed in a line of delivery hose, usually not more than
60 metres away from the foam-making equipment. This allows the foam-making equipment
to be moved around relatively freely without the additional need to move foam concentrate
containers. In-line inductors employ the venturi principle to induce the concentrate into the
water stream. Water is fed into the inlet of the inductor generally at a pressure of around 10
bars (see Figure). This passes through the smaller diameter nozzle within the inductor to a
a small induction chamber and then to on the inductor's large diameter outlet . As the water
enters the small nozzle, its velocity increases dramatically causing its pressure to drop (the
venturi principle) and the pressure in the induction chamber to fall below atmospheric
pressure. This partial vacuum sucks the foam concentrate through the pickup tube and into
into the low pressure induction chamber. A non-return ball valve must be included in the
foam concentrate pick up line to prevent water flowing back into the foam concentrate
container
20. The advantages of the use of in-line inductors are:
generally the cheapest induction system available;
simple, robust and with few moving parts;
quick deployment/redeployment on the fire ground;
foam solution does not pass through the pump or appliance pipe work making clean up easier and reducing
the possible corrosive effects of the foam solutions.
21. The disadvantages of in-line inductors are:
for optimum performance, the inductor must be matched to the foam-making equipment;
for optimum performance, the inductor must be matched to the type and concentration of foam
concentrate in use;
Accuracy of proportioning will vary with pressure.
22. Characteristics of good foam
It should be remembered that there are many companies manufacturing each of the different foam
concentrate types. The quality of foam concentrates produced will vary from manufacturer to
manufacturer and often different quality versions of the same foam type will be available for the same
manufacturer. Consequently the following information represents the typical characteristics of foams
produced from each of the foam types. The table below allows a quick comparison to be made of each
main foam type. A more detailed explanation of each follows
