Perimeter Solutions announced the introduction of a new line of fluorine-free firefighting foam concentrates for general function use. Called SOLBERG VERSAGARD, the fluorine-free line debuts with SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100. SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 multipurpose 3×3 fluorine-free foam focus is an alcohol resistant, state-of-the-art pseudoplastic foam technology designed for extinguishing and securing both Class B (hydrocarbon and polar solvent liquid fuel) and deep-seated Class A fires. This biodegradable and non-persistent concentrate is made with no siloxanes and is a mixture of hydrocarbon surfactants and additives that delivers glorious foaming, vapor sealing, extinguishment and burn-back properties utilizing contemporary, sea or brackish water. Some fluorine-free foams are viscous and often present viscosity increase when in contact with water. SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 creates very secure foams whereas keeping an analogous viscosity to conventional AR-AFFF foams. This considerably improves storage, dealing with and long-term stability. SOLBERG VERSAGARD enters the market with a rising variety of worldwide certifications, together with EN-1568-1/2/3/4:2018, LASTFIRE, ICAO B and International Maritime Organization.

This can have a dramatic impact on handling and use charges in firefighting operations.’ he stated.
A broad range of use purposes
SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 is designed to generate secure foams with high fluidity and gradual drainage. This novel expertise allows SOLBERG VERSAGARD to perform similarly to fluorinated products. It may be used with low-expansion foam gear (nozzles and monitors) and medium- and high-expansion foam discharge units to battle fires involving Class B hydrocarbon and polar solvent gas fires. It is fully suitable and easily proportioned with commonplace firefighting gear, together with in-line inductors, self-inducting nozzles, fireplace truck pumps, bladder tanks, pump skids, balanced pressure techniques and extra.
In addition to its excellent foamability and bubble stability, SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 has wonderful wetting capacity, making it also an efficient software for the extinguishment of Class A gasoline fires.
Multiple certifications reveal effectiveness
Perimeter Solutions has achieved a broad vary of certifications for SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 required for various regions and functions. The firefighting foam focus:
Has achieved the maximum rating and is certified to European Standard EN-1568:2018 half three & four on all fuels with freshwater and seawater – IA/IA – IA/IA
Passes and is certified to European Standard EN-1568:2018 part 1 & 2 – for use with medium- and high-expansion foam discharge gadgets
Has achieved International Maritime Organization certification MSC.1/Circ. 1312
Has been LASTFIRE batch-certified as GOOD/GOOD/GOOD with 3 nozzles (semi, asp, system)
Has achieved ICAO Level B
The firm is pursuing further certifications for the product. SOLBERG VERSAGARD AS-100 is on the market instantly on a global basis. Perimeter Solutions might be discussing the model new foam expertise on the AOG Energy Conference in Perth, Australia, 11–12 March 2021, Stand D23.
