BLADDER TANKS
Filling and Maintenance Manual

INTRODUCTION

This manual is intended as a guide for both the ANSUL


Vertical Bladder Tanks and Horizontal Bladder Tanks. If
there are any questions, or further information is required,
contact Tyco Fire Protection Products, Applications
Engineering, Marinette, Wl 54143-2542.
Those who design, install, operate, refill, inspect, or maintain
these systems should read this entire manual.

IMPORTANT
This equipment is designed for use on
only Class A Fires and Class B
Hydrocarbon Fires.
Bladder tanks are mechanical devices. They need periodic
care. Inspections provide reasonable assurance that the
bladder tank is full and the system is operable. Inspection
should take into consideration the environment, system use,
and user inspection policy; but as a minimum should be
conducted semi-annually. Maintenance, which provides
maximum assurance that the ANSUL foam concentrate is
effective and the system is operable, should be conducted
at annual intervals, or earlier when indicated by an
inspection.

WARNING

Maximum working pressure for an ANSUL bladder tank is


175 psi (12.06 bar).
ASME Code requires over pressure protection prior to
placing this vessel in service. Tyco Fire Protection
Products has not provided over pressure protection with
this vessel. It shall be the responsibility of Owner to
arrange for such over pressure protection.
Note: Tyco Fire Protection Products has not provided an
over pressurization device because the water supply pressure and flow capacity of your fire protection system and
the details of the complete system design must be known
before an over pressure protection device can be
provided. Therefore, the owner or the engineer designing
the fire protection system shall have the responsibility of
determining and arranging for the type of over pressure
protection that should be provided for this vessel as part
of the fire protection system. If additional information or
assistance is required, please contact your fire protection
system engineer.

CAUTION

Do not weld on the bladder tank. The tank contains an


elastomeric bladder and interior protective coating which
will be destroyed by welding temperatures. For additional
information contact Tyco Fire Protection Products,
Applications Engineering, Marinette, Wl 54143-2542.
Because the foam concentrate will undergo thermal
expansion as the temperature increases, it is important,
that at the time of filling, the temperature of the concentrate be as close as possible to the actual ambient
temperature where the tank will be located.

NOTICE
ANSUL Foam Concentrates must be
stored within the temperature range listed
on the tank nameplate. If the concentrates
require storage outside of these temperature ranges, consult Tyco Fire Protection
Products, Applications Engineering,
Marinette, Wl 54143-2542.
Also, particular attention should be given
to the Field Inspection Manual (Part No.
31274) which deals with the testing procedures for ANSUL Foam Concentrates.

CAUTION

Lifting lugs are designed to lift the tank empty while utilizing two lift lugs on vertical tanks and four lift lugs on horizontal tanks. The angle of the rope or chain from
horizontal must be 30 degrees or greater.

SYSTEM SCHEMATICS
The following schematics (Figures 3 and 4) represent typical
system piping and valving arrangements for bladder proportioning systems with vertical or horizontal tank configurations. These systems, however, 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.
Tyco Fire Protection Products typically supplies:
Foam agent
Bladder tank with tank valves
Proportioner with built-in metering orifice
Most discharge devices

IMPORTANT
Because of the similarities between vertical and horizontal bladder tanks, the
procedures and tank valve functions are
identical. Therefore, vertical bladder tank
schematics are used exclusively throughout the remainder of this manual. For horizontal bladder tanks, refer back to Figures
2 or 4 for valve locations.

INSTALLATION
Page 5

INSTALLATION
To prepare the bladder tank for placement in service:
1. Remove all cord, wrapping, and banding ties. Examine
entire system and component parts for concealed shipping damage before placement or securement on site.

NOTICE
If the bladder tank is to be connected
to a Closed Head Sprinkler System,
contact Tyco Fire Protection Products,
Applications Engineering, Marinette,
Wl 54143-2542.

NOTICE
For bladder tank dimensions, refer to
Vertical and Horizontal Bladder Tank
Data Sheet (Form No. F-83179).
2.

CAUTION

Lifting lugs are designed to lift the tank empty while


utilizing two lift lugs on vertical tanks and four lift lugs
on horizontal tanks. The angle of the rope or chain
from horizontal must be 30 degrees or greater.
3. Anchor system to floor and remove plastic shipping
plugs from bladder tank valves.

CAUTION

Do not weld on the bladder tank. The tank contains an


elastomeric bladder and interior protective coating
which will be destroyed by welding temperatures. For
additional information contact Tyco Fire Protection
Products, Applications Engineering, Marinette, Wl
54143-2542.
4. Install foam proportioner in main distribution supply pipe
to discharge device(s).

NOTICE
The proportioner must be mounted at
the same elevation as the top flange
of the tank or a normally-closed valve
(manual or automated) must be
installed in the foam concentrate line
to prevent agent migration. A concentrate isolation valve is required to
isolate the tank during filling procedures.

5. Install piping from water supply upstream of proportioner


(see Figures 3 and 4) and to the bladder tank water inlet
using the appropriate piping, valves, gauges, unions,
etc., as determined by the system design engineer.

WARNING

Maximum working pressure for an ANSUL bladder


tank is 175 psi (12.06 bar).
ASME Code requires over pressure protection prior to
placing this vessel in service. Tyco Fire Protection
Products has not provided over pressure protection
with this vessel. It shall be the responsibility of Owner
to arrange for such over pressure protection.
Verify that over pressure protection has been
provided for this vessel within the fire protection
system. If additional information or assistance is
required, please contact the fire protection system
design engineer.
6. Install piping from the bladder tank foam concentrate
outlet to the proportioner concentrate inlet using appropriate piping, valves, strainers, check valves, unions,
etc., as determined by the system design engineer.
7. If an optional sight gauge is provided, install gauge by
completing the following steps:
a. Remove plug from tee located adjacent to the
Bladder Drain/Fill Valve near the bottom of the tank.
(See Figure 1 or 2.)
b. Screw sight gauge assembly into tee using Teflon
tape on male threads of nipple.
c. Snap end of support into adapter located on side of
tank.
HYDRAULIC ACTUATED BALL VALVE INSTALLATION /
OPERATION
The hydraulic actuated ball valve requires pressure to
open.
There are two 1/8 in. ports on each actuator, one is labeled
in and the other is unlabeled. Most valve sizes use a
single actuator, but some larger valves use a twin actuator
assembly.
With the ball valve in the closed position, the actuation
piping is piped to the in port(s); the vent port(s) is left open
to allow air pressure to be relieved as the internal piston is
pushed over by the water pressure.
The actuator has to be manually reset by relieving the
actuation water pressure and with a wrench manually
turning the indicator stub back to the closed position.
If the in label has been removed, with the valve in the
closed position, put a finger over both ports and manually
open the valve with a wrench. The port(s) that is pulling a
suction is the port(s) to pipe the actuation piping to.
Remember the vent port(s) must be left open to atmosphere and not plugged, otherwise the valve will not
open.

AUxILIARY FILLING EQUIPMENT


Page 6

The following equipment is not supplied by Tyco Fire


Protection Products, but is required for Initial Fill and
Major Refill. (See Figures 3 and 4.)
1. A Wet/Dry shop vacuum with a 2 HP (1.5 Kw) motor or
larger.
2. Appropriate pipe fittings and duct tape to connect the
vacuum hose to the 1 inch NPT Tank Shell Vent Valve.
3. Concentrate fill pump* capable of 25 GPM (94.6 Lpm)
maximum output at 15 psi (1.03 bar), pump suction and
discharge hose, a two-position ball valve, and all appropriate fittings for connecting to the 1 inch NPT Bladder
Drain/Fill Valve.
*ANSUL Bladder Tank Fill Pump (includes suction and
clear discharge hose) Part No. 72724, or equal.

NOTICE
Prior to adding foam concentrate to
the tank, its refractive index should be
measured and recorded on the Field
Inspection Record (see FIeld
Inspection Manual), along with a
refractive index vs. concentration
curve. The procedures for these operations are covered in the Field
Inspection Manual (Part No. 31274). It
is also required that the batch
numbers from the concentrate pails
be recorded for future reference.

INITIAL FILL
Page 7

To initially fill a bladder tank:

4. Connect vacuum hose to shop vacuum and start


vacuum. Note the high pitched sound from the vacuum
before opening Tank Shell Vent Valve. This will be the
same pitch heard in Step No. 6.

CAUTION

Because the foam concentrate will undergo thermal


expansion as the temperature increases, it is important,
that at the time of filling, the temperature of the concentrate be as close as possible to the actual ambient
temperature where the tank will be located.
Fill the bladder only to the capacity specified on tank
nameplate. Overfilling may result in bladder damage.

5. Open Tank Shell Vent Valve to pull the air out between
the bladder and tank shell, which will pull the bladder
out to the tank shell wall (see Figure 6).
6. When the change in pitch from the vacuum is heard,
this indicates the bladder is now completely pulled out
to the tank shell wall. First close the Tank Shell Vent
Valve, then turn off the vacuum (see Figure 6).

SUGGESTED FOAM SYSTEM TESTING (BLADDER


TANK WITH TEST HEADER)
1. If bladder tanks are not filled, fill per ANSUL Bladder
Tank Manual or authorized ANSUL representatives
instruction.
2. Prepare required refractive index standards, and
generate refractive index curve for testing foam
discharge samples. Refer to Field Inspection Manual.
3. Prior to testing, make sure all valves on bladder tanks
are in the correct position. All 1 in. vent, fill, and drain
valves should be closed. The hydraulic actuated
concentrate valve should be closed (1/8 in. connection
not used should be left open to vent air). The
Concentrate Isolation Valve should be closed. Slowly
open the Water Inlet Valve to pressurize tank.
4. Connect hoses to test header. With only water flowing,
adjust hose valve to establish the desired system test
flow. (Note: Recommended system test flow for closed
head system is typically at the low end listed flow rate
for the size proportioner being tested.) Shut down
system valve without closing the adjusted hose valve,
and reset system valve for test actuation. If using a
containment truck for the foam solution, attach
discharge hoses to truck. A test sample valve (1/4 in.
minimum) is required in the discharge piping somewhere between the proportioner and the containment
truck. Note: Spraying or pretreating the truck tank with
a defoaming agent is recommended to prevent
nuisance foaming in the truck tank during testing.
5. Once the bladder tank has been filled and hose valves
have been adjusted, one zone is selected for foam
discharge. Personnel are required to be stationed at
the test sample valve to take samples of foam
discharge and at the bladder tank to shut off the foam
concentrate once the foam sample is taken.
Communication between these two persons is important to minimize concentrate used.
6. Once everyone is in their positions, trip selected zone.
Thirty to forty-five seconds after foam appears from the
test valve, take a sample of the solution discharge.
Shut Concentrate Isolation Valve as soon as the
samples are taken. Check refractive index against the
standard curve that was made in step #2. If sample is
low, retest. When sample tests OK, shut down test
valve, and change over to other risers that need to be
tested repeating procedure.
7. After system tests are completed, refill bladder tank if
required; and return valves to their normal operating
positions. On the main tank, the hydraulic valves need
to be closed (this has to be done manually). The Water
Inlet Valve and the Concentrate Isolation Valves are to
be in the open position. On the reserve tank, all valves
are to be in the closed position as this is a reserve
supply to put the system back in service quickly after a
discharge.
Note: Containment and disposal of the foam solution is the responsibility of others.

BLADDER INTEGRITY VERIFICATION PROCEDURE

1. Isolate the bladder tank from the system by closing


both the Water Inlet and Concentrate Isolation Valves.
Drain water from the tank shell by opening Tank Shell
Drain and Shell Vent Valves.

CAUTION

Tank may be under pressure at this time. Do not


place face or body in front of valves as injury may
result.
2. Transfer remaining foam concentrate in bladder to 55
gallon (208 L) drums or some other container.
3. When tank is completely drained, the valves on the
bladder tank should be in the following positions:
Water Inlet Valve . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Closed
Concentrate Isolation Valve . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Closed
Tank Shell Drain Valve . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Closed
Tank Shell Vent Valve . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Closed
Bladder Vent/Fill Valve . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Open
Bladder Drain/Fill Valve . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Open
4. Using a Wet/Dry shop vacuum of 2 HP (1.5 Kw)
minimum, attach the vacuum hose to the Tank Shell
Vent Valve. This may be accomplished by using pipe
fitting and securing with duct tape.
5. Connect vacuum hose to shop vacuum and start
vacuum. Note the high pitched sound from the
vacuum before opening the valve. This is the same
sound that should be heard in step #7.
6. Open Tank Shell Vent Valve to pull the air out between
the bladder and the tank shell, which will pull the
bladder out to the tank shell wall.
7. When the change in pitch from the vacuum is heard,
this indicates that bladder is now completely pulled out
to the tank shell wall.
8. If no change in pitch is noted after about 15 minutes,
the bladder is damaged and needs to be replaced.
9. If there is a change in pitch, the bladder is not
damaged. Close the Tank Shell Vent Valve and turn off
the vacuum. The bladder tank can now be refilled as
per the ANSUL Bladder Tanks Filling and Maintenance
Manual (Part No. 74177), using the vacuum method.

BLADDER REMOVAL & REPLACEMENT PROCEDURES

NOTICE
Review all steps before beginning procedure.
1. Remove all water from tank shell by opening both the
Tank Shell Vent Valve and the Tank Shell Drain Valve.
A hose should be connected to the drain valve to direct
the flow of water to an approved disposal area.
2. Remove all foam concentrate from the bladder by
opening the Bladder Vent/Fill Valve and the Bladder
Drain/Fill Valve. A hose should be connected to the
Bladder Drain/Fill Valve to direct the concentrate using
a transfer pump to an approved disposal containment
tank/drums.
3. Remove top and bottom flange from the tank.
4. Slowly remove the vertical center tube out through the
top flange opening. This tube must be removed on all
horizontal tanks. (If the center tube cannot be
completely removed on the vertical tanks, drop the
tube through the lower flange opening and remove
bladder out through the top flange opening sliding the
bladder past the center tube.)
5. Remove end flanges on horizontal tanks and slowly
remove the horizontal center tube so as not to damage
the bladder.
6. Before removing the bladder, attach cords (ropes) to
the flange bolt holes on all ends of the bladder with the
exception of the end where the bladder will be pulled
out. The cords will also be used for installing the new
bladder. After the cords are attached, slowly pull the
bladder out of the end that does not have the cords
attached.
7. Prior to reinstalling the replacement bladder, mark the
bladder flanges to ensure proper alignment once it has
been reinstalled. Re-attach the cords on the flange
ends to help guide them back into place. Use of duct
tape to compress bladder flanges is helpful in reinstalling the bladder.
8. Re-install the bladder and check to ensure that the
bladder is properly aligned. Before re-inserting the
center tubes, close the Tank Shell Drain Valve and
attach a vacuum cleaner hose to the Tank Shell Vent
Valve. With this valve open, start the vacuum. This will
pull the bladder out toward the tank shell wall. Once
the bladder has been sucked out toward the shell wall,
look through the flange end to ensure that the bladder
is not twisted (if twisted make the adjustment to correct
this). Once the bottom flange opening is visible, close
the Tank Shell Vent Valve and then shut vacuum off.

NOTICE
Torque specification below is a
maximum. If during torquing of bolts
bladder flange appears to become
deformed, stop torquing at this point.
Only torque bolts further if a leak is
present while inspecting during tank
pressurization.
Re-install the flanges following the procedure for bolting
instruction per ASME flange torquing procedures. This is
tightening the bolts to 162 ft lb (219.6 Nm) each in 1/5
increments using 0-180, 90-270, 45-225, 135-315 degree
sequence.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES
Page 1

Introduction
Depending on the equipment provided, two methods are acceptable for estimating the foam concentrate contained within the
bladder: (1) Using The Sight Gauge or (2) Using A Dip Stick/Line.
Both methods can be used for either vertical or horizontal tanks.
Neither of the methods is exact, but both will provide a close estimate of the bladder contents.
The measurement tables listed in this guide provide an estimate
of the amount of concentrate remaining in the tank after operation.
The approximate quantity of gallons (liters) required to refill the
bladder can be determined by subtracting the table reading
(Concentrate In Tank) from the capacity specified on the tank
nameplate:

Tank Capacity
(gallons (L))

Concentrate
In Tank
(gallons (L))

Concentrate
Required
To Refill
(gallons (L))

4. Measure and record the concentrate depth in the sight gauge


tube. The measurement must be taken from the tube connector at top of the valve body to the concentrate level in the sight
gauge tube as shown in Figure 1.

NOTICE
It is also a good idea to mark the full
level on the sight gauge tube. Do this
after initially filling the tank with the
exact amount of concentrate as specified on the tank nameplate. The full
level can then be verified following
tank refills or during inspection and
maintenance procedures.

The percentage of concentrate to be replaced can be determined


by dividing the number of gallons (L) required to refill the tank by
the rated capacity specified on the tank nameplate. If the percentage of concentrate to be replaced is more than 25%, a major refill
is required. Otherwise the instructions for a minor refill may be followed (refer to Bladder Tanks Filling and Maintenance Manual,
Part No. 70343).

Drain all water and relieve all pressure from tank before
operating any valves or the sight gauge. Do not put your
face in front of valve outlets or near sight gauge tube while
operating. Failure to comply will result in personal injury or
sight gauge damage due to the unrestricted release of
water or concentrate through the valve outlet or into the
sight gauge.

GAUGE USE

OPERATING

Using The Sight Gauge


The following procedures are provided for those tanks that have a
sight gauge installed. If a sight gauge is not provided, refer to the
Using A Dip Stick/Line section.
1. Close Water Inlet Valve.
2. Open Tank Shell Drain Valve and Tank Shell Vent Valve until
all water is drained and all pressure is relieved from tank.

NOTICE
To obtain an accurate reading, all
water must be drained and all pressure must be relieved from tank.
3. Pull ring pin and turn sight gauge valve handle to READ position. Allow concentrate to enter and come to a stable level in
sight gauge tube.

fIGURE 1
004317

5. Return sight gauge valve to the OPERATING position, insert


ring pin, and install visual inspection seal. The concentrate will
automatically drain from the sight gauge tube at this time.
6. Using the measurement recorded in Step No. 4, refer to the
corresponding measurement table to determine the approximate gallons (L) contained within the bladder. The Table of
Contents lists the measurement table page numbers according to tank size and type.
7. If bladder tank capacity is below system requirement, tank
must be refilled. Refer to Minor or Major refill procedure in the
Bladder Tanks Filling and Maintenance Manual (Part No.
70343).
8. Close Tank Shell Drain Valve and slowly open Water Inlet
Valve to vent air between bladder and tank shell.
9. Close Tank Shell Vent Valve.

MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES
Page 2

Using A Dip Stick/Line


To perform these procedures, the user must supply either a wooden rod or weighted line.
A wooden rod is recommended where tank size and space considerations make it practical. The rod must be no larger than 1/2
in. (12 mm) in diameter and must be long enough to reach from
the top of the Bladder Vent/Fill Valve to the bottom of the tank.
Marking 1 inch (25 mm) increments on the rod will simplify the
measurement process.
Where tank size and the free space above the tank do not allow
for use of a wooden rod, a weighted line can be used. The line
must be long enough to reach from the top of the Bladder Vent/Fill
Valve to the bottom of the tank. The weight must not be larger than
1/2 in. (12 mm) in diameter.

NOTICE
It is also a good idea to mark the full
level on the dip stick/line. Do this after
initially filling the tank with the exact
amount of concentrate as specified on
the tank nameplate. The full level can
then be verified following tank refills or
during inspection and maintenance
procedures.

FOAM CONCENTRATES AND


FOAM PRE-MIX SOLUTIONS
Field Inspection Manual

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 www.ansul.com.
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. 428680, 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. 428679. It is also available on
www.ansul.com 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 products performance.
Packages of two (2) sample containers with labels can be
purchased under Part No. 428679.
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).

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.

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.

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 systems 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 solutions conductivity. (Refer to
Proportioning Test Instruments Data Sheet, F-2007003, 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, 1500-32
6. 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 HighExpansion 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.
