Product catalog summary
General Description: The Balanced Pressure Proportioner Mk2 (PPW) is designed for accurate foam concentrate proportioning, essential for optimal foam system performance. It offers improved accuracy, a broader flow range, and reduced line pressure drop compared to previous models.
Application Description: Suitable for foam pump and closed head sprinkler systems, the PPW series is ideal for monitor and deluge systems or scenarios with significant flow variations.
Product Features:
  • Foam mixing capability up to 3%.
  • Corrosion-resistant design.
  • Maximum flow rate ratio of 120:1.
  • Accurate proportioning across the range.
  • Maintenance-free and compact design.
  • Minimum foam proportioning of 100 l/min.
Installation: The proportioner is wafer-mounted between flanges for water and flanged to fit DIN or ANSI for foam. Specific dimensions and pressure drop data are provided in the document.
Operation: The system is fully automatic, requiring the foam inlet pressure to be at least 1 bar higher than the water pressure. Specific pipe length requirements are detailed for optimal operation.
Listings and Approvals: The product is approved by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) and complies with EN 13565-1, NFPA 16, and 30 standards.
Order Information: When ordering, specify the PPW size, foam connection type (ANSI or DIN), type of foam concentrate, and mixing rate.
Performance Data: Detailed performance data, including capacity, weight, and material specifications, are provided for different PPW models (PPW-100, PPW-150, PPW-200).
Foam Concentrate Configuration: A matrix is provided for various foam concentrate types and configurations.

Balanced Pressure Proportioner Mk 2-1

Page 1 of 2 (replaces datasheets 1010/23) General description An accurate proportioner for foam concentrate,irrespective of flow and pressure variations is vital for the correct performance of a foam system. The new Skum PPW proportioners provide moreaccurate proportioning, a wider flow range with a lower line pressure drop than the original units. Application description This type of proportioner is used in foam pump andclosed head sprinkler systems. The PPW series is designed for monitor and deluge systems or where large flow variations occur. Product features PPW-200 > Foam conc.
