APPLICATION
The Foam Trailer SIA-RFT-1000 is a portable
wheeled trailer which is designed to provide
mobile fire protection.
These units are very useful when there is a need
to deploy additional firefighting appliances on a
specific target or to cover an area where fixed
firefighting systems are not installed or available.
They are typically used in areas such as
refineries, tank farms, chemical plants, marine
terminals and other industrial facilities
The Foam Trailer comes in a compact and
economically priced package. They are designed
and developed for extreme incident flexibility;
they can be easily pulled by a vehicle to a fire
hazard site; they can be quickly placed into action
and provide foam discharge through a pre-piped
monitor.

DESCRIPTION
The Foam Trailer SIA-RFT-1000 is essentially a lightweight but rugged assembly, composed by a frame, single axle, wheels and
tires designed to carry the gross weight of the trailer with associated equipment and foam concentrate.
The trailer frame includes four swing down stabilization jacks, standing area with a non-slip surface, deck in embossed aluminium
sheet; the moving and manoeuvre mechanisms include mechanical stationary breaks, automatic reverse and rotating front wheel.
It can be equipped with lights, reflectors and signs for use on public road; it can also be customized with special signs and markings
on request.
The foam storage tank has a 1000 L (265 gal) capacity and it is properly fixed on the rear of the trailer. It is constructed of stainless
steel 316L and provided with proper drain (1” valve), filling (commercial manhole) and inspection facilities (two visual level gauges).
An outlet connection on the top of the tank, complete with dip-tube can be connected by means of an industrial grade discharge
hose, to provide foam concentrate to the monitor nozzle during discharge.
The Foam Trailer is designed to be equipped with a completely packaged fixed Foam Monitor Station. The standard package is
composed of: a cast brass monitor, with a full 3” waterway for flow rates up to 4000 LPM, that guarantees a full 360° rotation and
a vertical travel of 140° (+85° / -55°); a 2½" single flow and self-educting nozzle, with great stream quality and reach. It is made of
cast brass and it is designed for use with Class A and B fam, including both AFFF and FP. It can provide 0.5%, 1%, 3% and 6%
foam proportioning. The Foam Monitor Station is connected and fed by a 4" carbon steel SCH. STD manifold, with corrosion
resistance coating and equipped with four inlet connections 2½” BS336 M, each fitted with check ball valve, cap and chain.
In the two side bins, four fire hoses can be provided, with a standard length of 30m, a nominal bore of 2½" and fitted with BS336
brass connections.
