Thermal insulation solutions for LNG pool fire fires . Our FOAMGLAS® PFS™ Generation 1 pool fire suppression system complements any safety program by delivering a reliable, low cost, low-maintenance passive solution for the reduction of thermal radiation and flame height in contained liquid natural gas (LNG) fires.
Industrial fire safety is more important now than ever before. Production demands require oil and gas facilities to run continuously without fear of costly safety issues. Many companies are also assigning a greater priority to communicating their successful safety records both internally and externally. Our FOAMGLAS® PFS™ Generation 1 pool fire suppression system complements any safety program by delivering a reliable, low cost, low-maintenance passive solution for the reduction of thermal radiation and flame height in contained liquid natural gas (LNG) fires. FOAMGLAS® PFS™ system is easy to install and can provide immediate mitigation of the thermal flux, rate of combustion, view and overall size of an LNG pool fire.
FOAMGLAS® PFS™ cubes are packaged in easy-to-handle, UV-resistant bags that rest uniformly in an impounding sump or other containment area. These units are easily installed on site and do not require any specialized skills or equipment to install or maintain. The product is packed in cartons for shipment on standard pallets so no special shipping or handling is required.
FOAMGLAS® PFS™ pool fire suppression system assists in providing immediate and automatic control of LNG pool fires. The FOAMGLAS® PFS™ pool fire suppression system has been tested to show that both radiant heat and flames were significantly reduced when used as a passive system prior to a gas leak when compared to traditional foam suppression systems used as the only method to attenuate pool fires.
The FOAMGLAS® PFS™ system contains specially formulated low-density cellular glass that has a combination of physical properties not found in traditional fire suppressant foams. Made of cellular glass, the material is both extremely buoyant and nonflammable. The pool fire suppressant cube system is non-corrosive and resistant to water and vermin. It is also fiber-free, and has a high compressive strength. The FOAMGLAS® PFS™ system works in conjunction with fire fighting foams. Damaged or post incident waste materials can be disposed of as standard refuse, and can be compacted for reduced waste volume.
