4 ANSUL In-Line Balanced Pressure Proportioners This manual is intended as a guide for ANSUL In-Line Balanced Pressure Proportioners. They will be used as a component in an In-Line Balanced Pressure Proportioning system. The overall system typically consists of an atmospheric foam concentrate storage tank, pump and pump controls, piping, various valves, strainers and discharge devices. These systems must be designed by competent, experienced engineers to ensure equipment compatibility; proper functioning of the system; and compliance with NFPA codes, as well as local and end-user requirements. If there are any questions, or further information is required, contact Tyco Fire Protection Products, Technical Services, Marinette, WI Those who design, install, operate, refill, inspect, or maintain these systems should read this entire manual. NOTICE This equipment is designed for use on only Class A Fires and Class B Hydrocarbon Fires. Only ANSULITE Alcohol-Resistant Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AR-AFFF) Concentrates, at the percentage recommended for the product, can be used on Class B Hydrocarbon and Polar Solvent Fires. In-Line Balanced Pressure Proportioners are mechanical devices that need periodic care and inspections to provide reasonable assurance that they are operable. Inspection should take into consideration the environment, system use, and user inspection policy; but at a minimum should be conducted semi-annually. Maintenance, which provides maximum assurance that the ANSUL foam concentrate is effective and the proportioning device is operable, should be conducted at annual intervals or earlier when indicated by an inspection. NOTICE ANSUL Foam Concentrates must be stored within the temperature range listed on the container and/or technical data sheet. If the concentrates require storage outside of these temperature ranges, consult Tyco Fire Protection Products, Technical Services, Marinette, WI Also, particular attention should be given to the ANSUL Field Inspection Manual (Part No ) which deals with the testing procedures for ANSULITE AFFF Concentrates. The testing procedures for non-afff foams are covered in NFPA Standard 11, Chapter 6.! WARNING Do not use foam extinguishing agent on Class C (electrical) fires since foam is a conductor of electricity. ANSUL, ANSULITE, and the product names listed in this material are marks and/or registered marks. Unauthorized use is strictly prohibited.

7 ANSUL In-Line Balanced Pressure Proportioners DESCRIPTION 2012-OCT-2 REV. 02 PAGE 1 DESCRIPTION The In-Line Balanced Pressure Proportioner functions by main - taining equal pressures in the foam concentrate and water inlets to the proportioner. This balancing ability allows the proportioner to be used over a wide range of flows and pressures. The proportioning device will also respond quickly to changes in the water inlet conditions. The system operates by passing the foam concentrate from a positive displacement pump through a pressure balancing (spool) valve. The spool valve senses the pressures in the foam concentrate and water lines and balances these pressures. (The pressures can also be balanced manually on IBP s equipped with optional foam balancing valves by manually regulating the flow of foam through the valve while watching the duplex gauge.) The foam concentrate then enters the proportioner. An orifice in the proportioner, sized for the foam concentrate type, regulates the flow of pressurized foam concentrate entering the water stream.

19 Page FOAM CONCENTRATES AND FOAM PRE-MIX SOLUTIONS Field Inspection Manual
20 INTRODUCTION Page 1 INTRODUCTION This manual is designed to serve as a guide to inspection procedures for ANSUL Foam Concentrates and Pre-mix Solutions. As Tyco Fire Protection Products manufactures many types of foam concentrates, locate the product data sheet for the specific concentrate to be tested. Product Data Sheets can be accessed at The designated inspector should be a responsible, experienced person with sound, basic knowledge of fire equipment hardware and extinguishing agents. A thorough briefing on the procedures to be followed should include the need for precise execution of each analysis step. See Field Inspection Record at the end of this manual to record proportioning results. Form Part No , Foam Analysis Request, is for use in recording the information required when sending in samples to the Tyco Fire Protection Products Agents Laboratory. This form also outlines the correct procedure for submitting samples. Review and complete the form as thoroughly as possible. This form is included in the Foam Agent Test Kit, Part No It is also available on under Foam Products. (Note: There is a charge for this testing service.) FReqUeNCy and accuracy OF TesTs Tyco Fire Protection Products recommends that proportioning tests be done at system commissioning and every three (3) years minimum thereafter. exception: Pre-primed foam-water sprinkler systems should be flushed, drained and pre-primed with fresh solution annually. During this process correct proportioning should be verified. Tyco Fire Protection Products recommends that Standard Quality Analysis Testing be done annually by the Tyco Fire Protection Products Agents Laboratory which not only tests the chemical properties of the sample, but also does lab scale fire testing to assure the product s performance. Packages of two (2) sample containers with labels can be purchased under Part No Storage of concentrates below the minimum temperature listed on the product data sheets could result in freezing. If the agent freezes, it should be thawed at or near room temperature and agitated or stirred to ensure a homogenous mixture. If previous freezing is suspect, agitation will again ensure a homogenous mixture. To maximize life of concentrates stored in atmospheric storage tanks, ANSUL recommends that a 1/4 in. (6 mm) layer of mineral oil be added to the air-exposed surface of the concentrate. This is critical for Alcohol Resistant Concentrates. RelaTeD INFORmaTION The following is a list of Technical Bulletins that can be found at the ANSUL internet home page Technical Bulletin Number 52 (Environmental Impact of ANSULITE AFFF Products) Technical Bulletin Number 54 (Shelf Life of ANSULITE AFFF Concentrates and Their Pre-mixed Solutions) Technical Bulletin Number 55 (Aspirated Versus Nonaspirated AFFF) Technical Bulletin Number 59 (Acceptable Materials of Construction For Use With ANSUL Foam Concentrates) Technical Bulletin Number 60 (Foam and The Environment) Technical Bulletin Number 64 (Compatibility of AFFF/Alcohol-Resistant AFFF Concentrates) ReFRaCTIve INDex vs. CONDUCTIvITy Tyco Fire Protection Products recommends refractive index testing instead of conductivity testing in the field because there is less chance of results being skewed by water quality or temperature. Also, continuous stirring is required during conductivity testing to obtain stable results. storage CONDITIONs Tyco Fire Protection Products recommends that its concentrates be stored at the temperatures indicated on the specific product data sheet. Accelerated aging studies have been conducted with the concentrate and pre-mix solutions stored at 150 F (65.5 C) with no adverse effect. However, Underwriters Laboratory Standard No. 162 requires that the maximum storage temperature be listed at 120 F (48.9 C).
21 FOam solution CONCeNTRaTION DeTeRmINaTION Page 2 FOam solution CONCeNTRaTION DeTeRmINaTION ReFRaCTIve INDex OR CONDUCTIvITy This test is used to determine the percent concentrate of a foam concentrate in the water being used to generate foam. It is typically used as a means to determine the accuracy of the system s proportioning equipment. This method is based upon comparing foam solution test sample to pre-measured solutions (Calibration Standard) that are plotted on a baseline graph of percent concentration versus instrument reading. A hand-held refractometer is used to measure the refractive index of the foam solution sample. Scales on refractometers vary, but what is actually being used to determine concentration is a change in reading from one premeasured solution to another (Calibration Standards Curve vs. Discharge Samples Reading ). The philosophy applies when using a conductivity meter which is measuring the changes in the solution s conductivity. (Refer to Proportioning Test Instruments Data Sheet, F , for more detailed information about the specific meters.) A base curve is prepared by using the following apparatus: 1. Four 100 ml or larger plastic bottles with leak-resistant screw caps 2. One 10 ml (10 cc) measuring syringe 3. One 100 ml graduated cylinder 4. Four or more eye droppers 5. One Test Meter Model PA 202, 10419, Graph paper 7. Ruler or straight edge Using water and foam concentrate from the system to be tested, make up three 100 ml calibration standard solutions. For a 6% concentrate, typically a 4%, 6% and 8% samples; for a 3% concentrate, typically a 2%, 3% and 4% samples; and for a 1% concentrate, typically a 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% samples are made. Label bottles with percent sample calibration solution that will be utilized, i.e. 2%, 3% and 4% for a 3% concentrate. As an example, for the 2% calibration solution sample, measure 98 ml of system water in the graduate cylinder, then pour into the bottle labeled 2%. Then with the measuring syringe, transfer 2 ml (2 cc) of the concentrate into the labeled bottle. Secure the cap on the bottle and shake to thoroughly mix the solution. Repeat for the 3% calibration sample (97 ml water and 3 ml concentrate) and for the 4% calibration sample (96 ml water and 4 ml concentrate). Increasing sample sizes will increase accuracy relative to the measurement instrument. After thoroughly mixing the foam sample, a meter reading is taken of each percentage foam solution sample. It is important that temperatures between discharge samples and calibration standards have normalized with temperatures above 50 F (10 C) working best. Each instrument has specific instructions for its correct operation. Using the graph paper, plot the meter reading on the X axis and the percent concentrate reading on the Y axis. This plotted curve will serve as the known baseline for the proportioning test. Meters may have different scales and the plotted resolution should be as large as possible with the complete range of the calibration solutions known. The scale you set must be linear. Collect foam solution sample(s) from the proportioning system, using care to ensure that each sample is taken at an adequate distance downstream from the proportioner being tested. (Usually any place downstream of the first change in direction is adequate if samples are taken in the riser room.) Stabilize a water flow through your discharge device within the known acceptable range for the proportioner and open the concentrate control valve. Take the sample about 30 to 60 seconds after foam appears from the test connection. Take meter readings of the sample(s) and compare readings to the plotted curve to determine the percentage for each sample. Per NFPA 11, Standard for Low-, Medium-, and High- Expansion Foam, acceptable ranges of proportioning systems are not less than the rated concentration and not more than 30% above the rated concentration or one percentage point above the rated concentration, whichever is less. For example, the acceptable range for a 3% concentrate is from 3 to 3.9%. Note: There is some variability dependent on the accuracy of the meter, the accuracy to which the calibration samples were made, and if temperatures between calibration standards and discharge samples have not normalized. Conductivity is especially susceptible to reading fluctuation, thus the sample should be continuously stirred until a stabilized reading can be estimated. Care should be taken to not bump the sides or bottom of the sample container or contaminate the sample with salts or solids, i.e. dirty fingers while stirring. The conductivity of water stored in or for systems can vary throughout a discharge which may affect results. Conductivity should not be used for sea, salt, or brackish water supplies. Although conductivity can be the most accurate means of measuring foam solution in clean water supplies under ideal conditions, the refractive index method is best for most real world testing. If discharge samples are sent to the Tyco Fire Protection Products Test Lab for analysis, they should be packaged per the instructions with the Test Kit and sent in for immediate processing. Largely dependent on water quality and the type of concentrate used, foam solutions may start to biodegrade in a short period of time which can affect results (possibly as little as three to five days with nutrient-rich water and detergent-based foam concentrates). The following graphs are examples of typical refractive index values for various concentrate pre-mixes. Results may vary depending on the concentrate pre-mix type, site water supply, and actual concentrate lot number. Therefore, it is important that a new calibration curve be developed on each date a proportioning test is required.
