Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to a firefighting foam-mixing system and to a water diverter arrangement for use in a firefighting foam-mixing system.
Claims17
A firefighting foam-mixing system, comprising:
- a water line for providing a water flow,
- a storage tank having an inlet and an outlet, the storage tank comprising an internally arranged membrane adapted for holding a foaming agent and connected to the outlet,
- a first conduit having a first end connected to the inlet of the storage tank, and
- a second conduit having a first end connected to the outlet of the storage tank and a second end connected to the water line at a first position,
- wherein:
- the firefighting foam-mixing system further comprises a water diverter arrangement connected to the water line at a second position and to a second end of the first conduit, the second position being upstream of the first position in relation to the water flow through the water line,
- the water diverter arrangement is configured to, independent of a current flow of water at the second position, divert a predetermined proportion of the water flowing through the water line at the second position, to the first conduit for pressurizing an outside surface of the membrane.
4 more elements
