3% or 6% F-787B
Technical Information
Description
F-787B 3% or 6% AR-AFFF is a specially formulated, aqueous film
forming free flowing viscous foam concentrate. It forms a vapor
suppressing aqueous film on hydrocarbon type fuels or a polymeric
membrane on polar solvent/water miscible type fuels. It is intended
for use at a proportioning rate of 3% (3 parts AR-AFFF concentrate
to 97 parts water) on hydrocarbon fuels such as gasoline, kerosene,
diesel etc. F-787B 3% or 6% AR-AFFF is intended for use at a 6%
proportioning rate (6 parts AR-AFFF concentrate to 94 parts water)
on polar solvent/water soluble fuels such as alcohols, ketones, esters,
etc.
Features
• U. L. Listed, Foam Liquid Concentrates
• Suitable for use with either fresh or salt water
• Excellent wetting characteristics when used in combating Class
“A” fuel fires
• Suitable for use with carbon steel, fiberglass, polyethylene or
stainless steel. F-787B 3% or 6% AR-AFFF is not compatible with
galvanized pipe or fittings in an undiluted form.
• Suitable with dry chemical extinguishing agents
• Suitable for use on hydrocarbon or polar solvent type fuels
• Suitable for use with both air-aspirating foam and standard water
fog nozzles
Proportioning
• Fixed or portable in-line eductors
• In-line balanced pressure and pump pressure proportioning skid
• Bladder tank balanced pressure proportioning systems
• Around the pump proportioners
• Handline, air-aspirating nozzles with fixed eductor pickup tube
Discharge Devices
• Foam Chambers
• Air-aspirating and non air-aspirating sprinkler heads or spray
nozzles
• Standard water fog nozzles for handlines and monitors
• Air-aspirating foam nozzles
• Foam makers for use with either Floating Roof storage tanks
or Dike/Bund protection systems
Design Information
Cannot be used in sub-surface applications with polar solvent type
fuels.
Foam Properties
Aspirating type discharge devices typically generate
expansion ratios between 6-10 to 1 when F-787B 3% or 6% AR-
AFFF is mixed with water at the correct ratio. Non-aspirating
type devices will typically generate expansion ratios of
between 2-4 to 1. Expansion ratios are dictated by the type
of discharge device, flow rate and discharge pressure.
Application Rates
Recommend application rate on hydrocarbon type fuels is .10 gpm/
ft.² and on polar solvent type fuels is .15 gpm/ft². The recommended
minimum application rates for the following specific polar solvent type
fuels are:
IPA
0.15 gpm/ft²
METHANOL
0.12 gpm/ft²
ETHANOL
0.13 gpm/ft²
ACETONE
0.14 gpm/ft²
METHYL ETHYL KETONE 0.13 gpm/ft²
ETHYL ACETATE 0.13 gpm/ft²
MTBE
0.15 gpm/ft²

*Brookfield # 4 Spindle at 30 rpm
Environmental Impact
F-787B is biodegradable, low in toxicity and can be treated in
sewage treatment plants.
Storage/Shelf Life
If kept in the original unopened and airtight factory supplied container
and stored within the temperature range of 35ºF-120ºF, a shelf life of
between 20-25 years can be expected. If the AR-AFFF is to be stored
in an atmospheric type foam concentrate storage tank whether on
mobile apparatus or stationary, limit the airspace above the surface of
the concentrate where possible and place a thin layer of quality mineral
oil on the surface of the foam concentrate to minimize any effect from
evaporation.
