Mobile Foam Fire Extinguisher

The Mobile Foam Fire Extinguisher from EMACO is engineered for industrial and commercial applications where fire risks involve flammable liquids or mixed materials. Built to deliver powerful foam discharge with extended reach, it provides effective cooling, smothering, and re-ignition prevention—making it a preferred solution for high-hazard zones.

Designed with a durable steel cylinder, heavy-duty wheels, and a flexible discharge hose, the mobile unit enables smooth transportation across large facilities. Its substantial extinguishing capacity ensures rapid response for scenarios where portable extinguishers may be insufficient.

Key Features

  • Extinguishing Agent: AFFF / AR-AFFF foam, depending on application
  • Fire Class Rating: Class A (solid combustibles) & Class B (flammable liquids)
  • Capacity Options: 45 L, 50 L, 75 L, and higher variants
  • Cylinder Material: Epoxy-coated carbon steel / stainless steel (model dependent)
  • Working Pressure: Typically 14–18 bar

Ideal for airports, petroleum sites, marine vessels, workshops, refineries, and large warehousing complexes, the EMACO Mobile Foam Fire Extinguisher delivers reliable and efficient fire control in demanding operational areas.

The Mobile Foam Fire Extinguisher is a critical firefighting unit in environments where flammable liquids, chemical vapors, or mixed-material fires are likely. Unlike dry powder systems, foam extinguishers form a stable blanket over burning surfaces, cutting off oxygen and preventing vapors from reigniting. This makes foam the preferred agent for fuel spills, chemical storage areas, aircraft hangars, and industrial zones.

Engineered for durability and fast deployment, EMACO’s mobile foam units feature reinforced frames, corrosion-resistant cylinders, and high-performance discharge systems to support continuous use in rugged environments. Their large capacity and extended discharge duration make them far superior to portable extinguishers when dealing with high-volume fire loads.

 

How the Mobile Foam Fire Extinguisher Works

 

Propellant Activation

Once the valve is opened, pressurized nitrogen forces the foam concentrate out of the cylinder.

Foam Generation

The foam solution expands through the branch pipe or nozzle, forming a thick, stable blanket.

Smothering Effect

The foam layer isolates the fuel from oxygen, instantly reducing flame intensity.

Cooling Mechanism

As water-based foam absorbs heat, it rapidly cools the affected area, reducing the chance of reignition.

Film-Forming Barrier (AFFF types)

A thin aqueous film spreads across the fuel surface, preventing vapor release and flame return.
