Foam Fire Hardware

Supplying The Best Equipment for Foam Fire Suppression

When protecting high risk industrial sites from fire, the best fire foam concentrate only as effective as the foam fire suppression hardware that is used to proportion and apply it on a fire. As part of Delta Fire's renowned foam fire suppression solutions, we provide the most advanced foam hardware to target fires caused by flammable or combustible liquids. This hardware is suited and tested for AFFF, protein and fluorine free foams and when combined with the right discharge device, including foam nozzles, foam pourers, branch pipes and foam generators, ensures sites are provided with a system that will correctly proportion and discharge foam solution resulting in providing a compliant and reliable system.
Why Delta Fire

Protecting high risk sites with the right foam fire suppression hardware

When protecting high risk industrial sites from fire, the best foam fire retardant is only as effective as the foam fire suppression hardware that is used to discharge it on a fire. Selecting and deploying the best foam hardware is crucial to minimise fire threats at high risk sites industrial such as petrochemical plants, refineries, airports, wharves and manufacturing sites. The key to suppressing fires caused by flammable or combustible liquids is using form hardware that is specifically designed to provide the right amount of foam products effectively. This hardware for foam fire retardant includes nozzles and branch pipes to foam generators, proportioners and bladder tanks. We have the right equipment for the right job, with the additional advantage of being able to provide design, commissioning and installation support in tandem with our partners.

installation and maintenance

Foam hardware that works and keeps working

Foam fire suppression hardware systems require key components, including proportioners or pumps to mix foam with water and discharge devices such as nozzles, sprinklers, or monitors to apply it. Piping networks deliver the foam solution across the at-risk area. During installation, knowledge of foam flows and pressures, plus the correct hardware, is crucial. Drawing on our international networks, Delta Fire partners with global foam fire suppression leaders to ensure safe commissioning and installation of all systems. Our after sales support includes regular testing of proportioning, aspiration, and discharge, along with hardware repairs and maintenance.

How it Works

Built to protect: how we deploy foam fire suppression

Every successful system starts with understanding the risk, selecting the right foam concentrate and installing the correct foam hardware that will apply the foam to protect the sites unique risk.

Understand the Risk

Industrial fires often involve extreme heat and hazardous materials. Modern foams are used to disperse a thick blanket of foam to smother flames, cool surfaces and prevent reignition. This is especially effective against flammable liquids like oil, gasoline and chemicals. For foam hardware needs, Delta Fire conducts risk assessments and recommends suitable equipment, from nozzles and generators to pumps, tanks and inductors, ensuring solutions match site specific fire risks.

Design Phase

Delta Fire has more than two decades of experience in the design of foam fire uppression systems and the deployment of market leading foam hardware. We provide fully designed and customisable systems, including foam dosing systems that optimise performance and simple operation, leading to reliability and peace of mind. Selecting the right hardware is an important part of the design phase.

Installation Phase

During installation of foam suppression systems, we partner and liaise with respected foam fire-suppression experts and OEM's around the world and have long term relationships with many of them. This ensures the systems supplied are manufactured to the highest standards and a quality product is provided and delivered. This, in turn, provides the customer comfort for the installation and commissioning component of the works.

Frequently Asked Questions

Firefighting foam is used in specific high risk environments where flammable liquids or volatile substances are present. Its primary purpose is to suppress Class B fires (fires involving flammable liquids like gasoline, oil, and alcohol) by forming a blanket that smothers the fire, cools the fuel surface and prevents re-ignition.
Choosing the right firefighting foam depends on several critical factors related to the type of hazard, fuel, environment, and regulations. Some considerations include:
● Determine the type of fire hazard
● How is the foam proposed to be applied to the risk
● Consider environmental regulations
Foam hardware refers to the mechanical components used to generate, proportion and discharge firefighting foam for extinguishing fires involving flammable liquids (Class B fires).
● Foam concentrate tank
● Foam proportioner (or inductor)
● Foam pump
● Foam generator or nozzle
● Discharge devices: foam monitors, nozzles, sprinklers
● Bladder tank or balanced pressure proportioning system
A foam proportioner mixes the foam concentrate with water at the correct ratio (typically 1%, 3%, or 6%). It ensures consistent foam generation during firefighting operations.
● Low expansion foam (up to 20:1): Used for flammable liquid fires
● Medium expansion foam (20:1 to 200:1): For outdoor or dike protection
● High expansion foam (200:1+): Ideal for enclosed areas like aircraft hangars or warehouses
● AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam)
● AR-AFFF (Alcohol-Resistant AFFF)
● Protein or fluoroprotein foams
● Non fluorine (fluorine-free) foam
Foam concentrate needs to be tested regularly to ensure it will work effectively and safely when used in a fire emergency. Over time, foam concentrate can degrade or become contaminated, which can seriously impact its ability to control or suppress a fire.
These systems can come pre engineered depending on the risk, for example, a paint booth; however, in some cases, the system needs to be engineered to suit a specific risk to ensure it will work efficiently and effectively.
Typically, the setup includes foam proportioners, bladder tanks, foam nozzles, branch pipes and foam generators. Each is designed to ensure accurate delivery and effective fire suppression.
Because different hazards require different tools, using the right combination of proportioners, nozzles and tanks ensures the foam is delivered effectively to stop fires fast.
After a site specific risk assessment, experts recommend the appropriate foam hardware ranging from mobile foam units to inline proportioners and fixed monitors.
While common components include branch pipes, foam generators, and dosing units, the exact setup depends on fire load, foam type and operational environment.
Yes. Delta Fire conducts full assessments and designs systems using globally certified hardware to ensure your foam fire suppression setup is efficient and compliant.
