Fire Vapor Suppression - Monitored Systems and Micelle Encapsulator Fire Suppression Agents
F-500 Micelle Encapsulator Fire Suppression Agent
F-500 is a specially engineered chemical that is used for a wide variety of fire suppression, vapor suppression, and bioremediation applications. Below are some of the features and benefits that F-500 provides the end user.
Key Features and Benefits
Feature |
|
Benefit |
Fast Extinguishment |
|
 |
Saves lives (victims and firefighters) |
 |
Less property damage |
 |
Reduces insurance claim amounts and premiums |
|
Reduced Surface Tension |
|
 |
Provides greater surface coverage and deeper penetration into
pores of Class A materials |
 |
Facilitates spreading of F-500 molecules in Class B materials |
|
Rapid Heat Reduction |
|
 |
Fast extinguishment of Class A and Class B fuels |
 |
Firefighter can approach fire more safely |
 |
Reduces threat of spontaneous reignition |
 |
Reduces combustion threat of surrounding infrastructure |
|
Enhanced Burnback Resistance |
|
 |
When F-500 and water are applied at the proper rates, firefighters
can walk through fuel with no threat of reignition |
 |
Penetration of F-500 into pores of Class A materials severely
inhibits the fire from restarting |
|

corrosion of pumps or plumbing |
|
Non-Hazardous |
|
 |
Reduced risk to emergency response personnel |
 |
Reduced risk to the environment |
|
Biodegradable |
|
 |
Reduced risk to the environment |
|
Vapor Suppression (reduces vapors below
the Lower Explosive Limit) |
|
 |
Eliminates the risk of explosion by sparks from extrication
equipment |
 |
Safer highway fuel spills |
 |
Reduces explosive vapors in confined space |
 |
Faster Tank Degassing / Tank Turnaround |
|
Bioremediation Aid |
|
 |
Speeds breakdown of hydrocarbons by increasing the surface
area allowing naturally occurring microorganisms to digest the
hydrocarbons |
 |
Reduces toxicity level of hydrocarbons |
|
Manufactured under ISO 9001 Accredited Quality Management
System |
|
 |
Assures the customer and end users consistent, reproducible,
traceable quality, and reliability of the design and manufacturing
process |
|
