NFPA 11: Minimum discharge times for cooling water and foam application
NFPA 11: Minimum discharge times for cooling water and foam application
(OP)
Hello
I'm designing a fire fighting system for a storage tank (150 m3 / gasoil), feeding a gasoil dispensing unit
NFPA 11 indicates rates and discharge times for cooling water and foam application.
I need to know wether the NFPA, indicates when to extend application rates ? if it does, where can i find it, because i'm going to have to design a water reserve tank along with a emulsifier tank.
Thank you in advance

NFPA 11 indicates rates and discharge times for cooling water and foam application.
- cooling water : 60 minutes
- foam application for extinghshing tank on fire : 20 minutes
- foam application for extinghshing dike on fire : 30 minutes
I need to know wether the NFPA, indicates when to extend application rates ? if it does, where can i find it, because i'm going to have to design a water reserve tank along with a emulsifier tank.
