Foam Trailer Title Right Comlumn: GENERAL INFORMATION:
Foam Trailer Text Left Comlumn:
  • Foam is needed for any fire or spill involving flammable or combustible solids or liquids
  • Water will not float on hydrocarbon products such as gasoline or diesel fuel.
  • Water used on a fire in a contained area may sink, runoff or overflow.
  • Foam reduces toxic and flammable vapors given off by fuels.
Foam Trailer Text Right Comlumn:
  • The following specifications are for a mobile foam resupply trailer of 1000 gallon capacity with accessories for use as a firefighting unit.
  • The trailer is intended to be towed by a support vehicle, of adequate capacity, to the scene of a fire and/or various types of spills for the purpose of fire suppression support. A one person operation shall allow for the transfer of foam to the fire at the scene of major incidents.
  • Product shall be completely brand new and of the best quality materials currently used in commercial practice for emergency vehicle fabrication. Materials that deteriorate when exposed to sunlight, extreme weather or operational conditions shall not be used or shall have a means of protection against such conditions that will not prevent compliance with performance standards. Protective coatings that chip, crack, or scale with age or extremes of climatic conditions or by exposure to heat or cold shall not used.
  • The foam resupply trailer shall comply with all applicable Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, as it pertains to municipal emergency firefighting, concerning size, weight, brakes, lights, load rating and balance. Conformance must meet FMVSS#108, FMVSS#115, FMVSS#120, and FMVSS#125 as stated in FCR title 49 in effect at time of delivery.
  • Weight shall be distributed as equally as practical over the axles and tires of the fully loaded vehicle. Fully loaded units that are unbalanced during stand alone operations or while being towed will not be accepted. Tires, wheels and axles shall be adequately sized for the load imposed by the in service weight of the completed trailer.
  • The use of proven nonmetallic materials in lieu of metal is permitted if that use contributes to reduced weight, lower cost or less maintenance and there is no degradation in performance or increase in long term operations and maintenance costs.
  • Foam resupply trailer must be constructed with lowest possible center of gravity when fully loaded with foam concentrate, tools and the appliances specified herein. Performance must be commensurate with smooth and safe highway and moderate off highway operation. Proper weight and balance configuration is essential.
