Horizontal Foam Bladder Tank

As a large-scale manufacturer, FUXEON® offers durable Horizontal Foam Bladder Tanks that are flexible and can be combined with foam generators to form foam spraying systems, or with high-expansion foam generators to form high-expansion total immersion systems. These systems can effectively extinguish fires caused by flammable liquid tanks or large-scale leaks, providing a defense line for the safety of your property.

A precision manufactured tank consisting of a pressure tank, diaphragm, proportional mixer, pressure gauge, valve, and piping. During operation, a water pump is required to provide pressurized water. As the pressurized water flows through the proportional mixer, 3% to 6% of the water flows from the branch pipe into the pressure tank, squeezing the diaphragm and replending an equal amount of foam concentrate.

It is worth noting that the proportion of water and foam can be automatically adjusted according to different flow and pressure conditions to ensure that the fire-extinguishing medium always maintains its efficient fire-extinguishing performance.

Installation:

In terms of installation, in order to ensure the stable operation of the equipment, the fire extinguishing foam tank should be installed in a sheltered place to avoid direct sunlight and rain, and the ambient temperature should be lower than 40℃, and sufficient operating space should be reserved.In addition, the horizontal foam bladder tank must be mounted on the concrete floor and secured with anchor nuts.

After installation, a hydrostatic test is also required: first open the tank vent valve, fill the tank with water through the concentrate drain pipe, close the vent valve after filling, pressurize the system to the test pressure and maintain it for 10 minutes to ensure that the tank has no leakage.Then close the inlet valve, open the drain valve and concentrate drain valve, drain the water in the tank.Rest assured that this critical test is rigorously completed at the time of product shipment to ensure that the product you receive performs up to standard.

FAQ

Q1: Which systems are applicable to our daily life?

A: Horizontal foam bladder tanks (PHYM series) are pressure-type foam proportioning units, ideal for fire protection systems in oil depots, petrochemical plants, power plants, underground garages, and dangerous goods warehouses. They suit scenarios with limited vertical space and are widely used in foam-water sprinkler combined systems.

Q2: What media can it handle?

A: It stores and delivers foam concentrates (AFFF, 3%/6% ratio) and mixes them with clean water. It is for non-viscous, clean foam agents; media with large solid particles or high viscosity are not recommended, as they may damage the bladder or block piping.

Q3: What are its core application advantages?

A: 1. Horizontal design: low height, easy installation in low-ceiling areas. 2. Bladder isolation: separates foam liquid from water, preventing contamination and allowing reuse of unused foam. 3. Stable proportioning: accurate 3%–6% mixing ratio, reliable for long-term use. 4. Compact integration: combines tank, bladder, and proportioner, saving space.
