18、and for inhibiting reignition. They can also be used to prevent the ignition of flammable liquids and, in certain conditions, extinguish fires of solid combustibles. Foams can be used in combination with other extinguishing media, particularly halons, carbon dioxide and powders, which are the subjec

21、or top application to water-miscible liquids 1 Scope This part of ISO 7203 specifies the essential properties and performance of liquid foam concentrates used to make low-expansion foams for the control, extinction and inhibition of reignition of fires of water-miscible liquids. Minimum performance

22、on certain test fires is specified. These foams are suitable for top application to fires of water-miscible liquids. Those foams that also comply with ISO 7203-1 are also suitable for top application to fires of water-immiscible liquids. The foam concentrates can be suitable for use in non-aspiratin

23、g sprayers or for subsurface application to liquid fires, but requirements specific to those applications are not included in this part of ISO 7203. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
