Definition
· Fixed; complete installation, piped from central foam station, auto
discharge
· Semi-fixed; foam discharge piping in place but not fixed, requires
separate mobile foam-solution source, primarily used on flammable
liquid storage tanks
· Mobile; wheel mounted, may have premixed foam solution or has
water supply connection capability, self propelled or towed by
vehicle
· Portable; hand-transported

, § Designed to discharge a foam-water solution onto a fire
§ Minimum discharge time 15min to control and suppress
§ Requires proportioner; injects and mixes foam and water at correct
concentration
electrically connected to municipal fire alarm system and depends on municipal
systems source of electric power
· Only manual pull stations and water flow devices allowed, no fire detection
device
continually charged with water under pressure, discharged immediately
when heat from fire activates
§ Discharged fine water mist
§ Absorbs larger quantities of heat, can raise humidity enough to stop
combustion due to displacing oxygen and blocking radiant heat
§ Less water damage

preferred for managing excessive pressure, uses spring mechanism that
compensates for variation pressure.
, 'lessor' crime

-allowed to plead guilty or not guilty
· = Type of smoke detector that uses small light source, either an incandescent
bulb of light-emitting diode (LED), to detect smoke by shining light through the
detectors chamber
· Best suited for areas containing overstuffed furniture
