Foam Fire Truck
Match the foam concentrate to the liquid-fuel or industrial hazard. Specify proportioning, pump and monitor duty alongside the water supply and cleaning arrangements after use.

Build and inspection
Final dimensions, installed equipment, route suitability and acceptance records are confirmed for the selected project.
Choosing and testing the foam system
How do I specify the foam system?
The fire-service authority defines the hazard and the agent it needs. Tank capacity describes storage. Foam performance also depends on the concentrate and proportioning system selected for the hazard. The importer needs to check destination requirements for that agent and vehicle.
Can this truck serve an airport?
Airport service needs a separate specification review. An industrial foam configuration does not, by itself, establish aircraft rescue and firefighting approval.
What should the foam test demonstrate?
The test record needs to identify the concentrate and proportioning setup used for the agreed duty. A water-only test cannot verify the complete foam duty.
Will the concentrate travel with the truck?
The quotation needs to say whether concentrate is included, supplied separately or excluded. If it is shipped, agree its condition and declaration with the carrier. Obtain the supplier's tank and circuit preparation instructions, and list loose hoses and equipment separately.
