The foam discharge assembly is simple to
install and does not require a wind shield
on top of the tank wall. Only two pipe
clambs are needed for the fixing of this
assembly to the floating roof tank.

The construction materials for the low

expansion foam discharge assemblies for
floating roof storage tank protection are
selected for the intended purpose. As a
standard carbon steel is used for the
manufacturing of the foam expansion pipe
on the foam maker and the foam discharge
pourer. The body of the foam maker is
made of seawater resistant bronze, the air
inlet strainer on the foam maker is made
of stainless steel and all fixing straps are
made of stainless steel as well. As an
option all carbon steel parts can be hot dip
galvanised or can be manufactured in
stainless steel.
