Foreword

Chapter 4 of this Standard is mandatory, while the rest are recommended. Consistency BETWEEN this Standard AND ISO 7203-1.1995(E) “Extinguishing Agent - Foam Concentrate - Low-expansion Foam Concentrate Used for Water-insoluble Liquid Fuel Top Application”, ISO 7203-2.1995(E) “Extinguishing Agent Foam Concentrate - Medium and High-expansion Foam Concentrate Used for Water-insoluble Liquid Fuel Top Application” and ISO 7203-3.1999(E) “Extinguishing Agent Foam Concentrate - Low-expansion Foam Concentrate Used for Water-insoluble Liquid Fuel Top Application” are non-equivalent. This Standard replaces GB 15308-1994 “General Specification for Foam Extinguishing Agents”, GB 17427-1998 “Aqueous Film Forming Foam Extinguishing Agent”, and GB 13463-1992 “Alcohol Resistant Foam Extinguishing Agent”. Compared with GB 15308-1994, the main changes of this Standard are as follows. -- Add technical requirements and test methods of “Foam Extinguishing Agent for Foam Extinguishers”; -- Add technical requirements and test methods of “corrosion performance” and “freezing point”; -- Add the definitions of “lowest useful temperature”, “characteristic values”, “25% drainage time”, “50% drainage time”, “expansion”, “foam”, “foam solution”, “sediment”, “spreading coefficient” and “anti-burning time”; -- Delete the definition of “temperature-sensitive foam solution”; -- Add Annex A “small fire fighting test for foam performance and fire extinguishing performance quality control” and Annex B “viscosity test method”. -- Add the division of disqualification types of items; -- Revise fire extinguishing test procedures and dividing the grades of fire extinguishing performances of foams. GA 31-1992 “High-expansion Foam Extinguishing Agent” and GA 219-1999 “Protein Foam Concentrate and Fluoroprotein Foam Concentrate” shall be abolished, from the date of implementation of this Standard. Annex B to this Standard is normative; Annex A is informative. This Standard was proposed by Ministry of Public Security of the People’s Republic of China. This Standard shall be under the jurisdiction of Third Branch Technical Committee of National Fire Fighting Standardization Committee. Drafting organizations of this Standard. Tianjin Fire Research Institute, Ansul, Ningbo Nenglin Fire-fighting Equipment Co., Ltd. AND Yangzhou Jiangya Fire Extinguishing Agents Co., Ltd. Main drafters of this Standard. Liu Yuheng, Jin Hongbin, Dai Huihong, Song Yang, Zhang Guobi, Zhang Yulin, Tong Xiangyou and Liu Jinsheng. The previous versions replaced by this Standard are as follows. -- GB 13463-1992; -- GB 15308-1994; -- GB 17427-1998. Foam Extinguishing Agent

1 Scope

This Standard specifies definition, requirements, test methods, inspection rules, marks and other contents of foam extinguishing agent. This Standard applies to low, medium and high foam extinguishing agent and foam extinguishing agent for fire extinguisher. This Standard does not apply to chemical extinguishing agent.
