Sabo Foam’s Hydral NFF 3-3 UL201 3%x3% non-fluorinated foam concentrate from Industrial Fire and Hazard Control
|
|
Sabo Foam’s Hydral NFF 3-3 UL201 3%x3% non-fluorinated foam concentrate is designed in accordance with NFPA Standard 11 for low-, medium- and high-expansion foam, is UL 162 listed as a synthetic alcohol resistant foam concentrate for use on hydrocarbon and polar solvent fuel fires, passes UL 162 type III test protocol on hydrocarbons at the same design application rate (4.1lpm/m2) as traditional AR-AFFF products with similar control times.
It is recommended for use at 4.1lpm/m2 for spill fire applications and offers effective control and suppression on hydrocarbon fuels, superior drain time compared to a high-quality AR-AFFF, with a longer lasting foam blanket for better burnback resistance and post-fire suppression.
EN1568:2018 – Parts 1, 3 and 4 and GreenScreen Certified™ Silver firefighting foam concentrate.
Hydral NFF 3x3 UL201 is a 3%x3% alcohol resistant non-fluorinated foam concentrate that provides excellent fire and vapour suppression for Class B, polar solvent and hydrocarbon fuel fires. This synthetic foam concentrate is intended for forceful or gentle firefighting applications at 3% solution on hydrocarbon fuels and gentle firefighting applications at 3% solution on polar solvent fuels.
Hydral NFF 3x3 UL201 foam solution utilises three suppression mechanisms intended for rapid fire knockdown and superior burnback resistance:
Hydral NFF 3x3 UL201 Foam Concentrate is a non-Newtonian fluid that is both pseudoplastic and thixotropic. Due to these properties, dynamic viscosity will decrease as shear increases.
Application
Hydral NFF 3x3 UL201 Foam Concentrate is intended for use on both types of Class B fires: hydrocarbon fuels with low water solubility, such as crude oils, gasolines, diesel fuels and aviation fuels; and polar solvent fuels with appreciable water solubility, such as methyl and ethyl alcohol, acetone and methyl ethyl ketone. It may also be used in conjunction with dry chemical agents to provide even greater fire suppression performance.
Hydral NFF 3x3 UL201 Foam Concentrate is well-suited for use in applications such as municipal and industrial response for spill and limited scale Type III hazards as well as foam systems with Type II discharge devices. Examples of these applications include:

Hydral NFF 3x3 UL201 foam solution utilises three suppression mechanisms intended for rapid fire knockdown and superior burnback resistance:
- The foam blanket has extended drain times to help block oxygen to the fuel and suppress fuel vapour.
- On polar solvent fires, liquid drains from the foam blanket and forms a polymeric membrane which protects the foam from destruction by the polar fuel, suppresses vapours and seals the fuel surface.
- The water content of the foam solution produces a cooling effect for additional fire suppression.
- Hydral NFF 3x3 UL201 concentrate is a non-fluorinated firefighting foam concentrate, meaning that it does not have any intentionally added PFAS chemistry and is produced in equipment that has not handled PFAS chemistry.
- Hydral NFF 3x3 UL201 concentrate thus complies with Directives (EU) 2017/1000 on PFOA and 2019/1021 (EU POPs directive).

- Truck/rail loading and unloading facilities
- Flammable liquid containment areas
- Mobile equipment
