POP-UP SYSTEM

Product catalog summary

General Description
The pop-up system for helidecks is a compact Direct Injection Foam Firefighting System (DIFFS) designed to mix Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) concentrate into fire water. It features pop-up nozzles and a skid, and is designed for easy integration with water lines and control signals. The system is optimized for Matre pop-up nozzles but can be adapted for other applications.

Design Description
The system supports foam tanks ranging from 200 to 1450 liters and is calibrated for 1% or 3% foam concentrate insertion rates. The inductor proportioner capacity ranges from K=280 to 3050, using inductor sizes DN100 or DN150, tailored to deck size, coverage needs, and pressure. Each nozzle covers a 7-meter diameter, with K-factors calculated for optimal performance.

System Description
Main components include a foam concentrate tank, inductor, and nozzles. The inductor creates a vacuum to draw foam into the water flow at a calibrated rate, typically 1% or 3%, using 30% of the water pressure. An actuator valve controls system activation, and foam insertion can be disabled for testing. Control panels can be installed indoors or outdoors as per regulations.

Main Components

Skid for deck installation
Ventilated foam concentrate tank with dip stick and drain valve
Manual pump for refilling (on SKD10 and SKD11)
Strainer at water inlet (on SKD10 and SKD11)
Actuator valve for system control
Pressure indicators for monitoring
Inductor sizes DN100 or DN150
Ball valves for pump and foam control
DY16 nozzles with pop-up units

Standard Requirements for Calculation

Flow: 6 l/min per m³ of helideck area
Foam capacity: 1% or 3% for 5 minutes (10 minutes for NORSOK and NMD units)
Minimum system pressure: 7 bar at inductor inlet
Inductor pressure loss: 30%
Pressure height due to elevation: 0.4 bar
Pipe pressure loss: max 0.4 bar using 4” pipe
Branch pipes: 1 ½” for single nozzle, 2” for multiple nozzles
Minimum nozzle inlet pressure: 4.1 bar

Specification Chart
The specification chart provides detailed data on D-values, area, flow rates, insertion rates, required foam quantities, tank sizes, skid drawings, number of nozzles, and nozzle K-factors for various configurations. Notably, tanks for 10-minute foam applications are specified for certain configurations.

MATRE MASKIN' E-mail : [email protected] www.matre.no DATA SHEET POP-UP SYSTEM FOR HELIDECK STANDARD DESIGN GENERAL DESCRIPTION The system is a compact DIFFS with pop-up nozzles and skid designed to mix foam concentrate type AFFF in to fire water carrying foam tank and proportioner. The system proportions an exact rate of foam concentrate directly to the fire water line close to the nozzles only using some of the energy in the water. Only to be hooked up to the water line and control signal from the control panel. Special designed for systems using Matre pop-up nozzles, but also suitable to be installed in other DESIGN DESCRIPTION The system can carry tanks from 2001 to 14501. Calibrated to 1% or 3% insertion rate. Inductor proportioner capacity K= 280 - 3050 using inductor size DN100 or DN150 to be calculated according to deck size, coverage requirements and pressure. Nozzles according to deck size each covering a diameter of 7 metre and with exact K-factor calculated according to proportioner performance. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Main components are tank for foam concentrate, inductor and nozzles. The inductor will when the water flow is activated create a vacuum which sucks foam from the tank in to the water flow at a preset calibrated rate, normally 1% or 3% using 30% of the water pressure. The inductor is also calibrated to a specific flow when the water inlet pressure is at rated
