Balance Pressure Proportioning Skid

Royal Fire Protection Balanced Pressure Proportioning Pump Skids are designed to precisely proportion the foam concentrate into the water stream. The systems function over a range of flows and pressures. The Balanced Pressure Pump Proportioning System functions by maintaining an equal pressure in the foam concentrate inlet and water inlets to the proportioner, which allows the proportioner to be used over a wide range of pressure and flows.

The system consists of a foam pump, a diaphragm operated pressure balancing valve, and all the required piping valves and fittings assembled on a common steel base. Royal Fire Protection also offers the deluge valve and the atmospheric storage tank as an option, on the pump skid as per request. The skid units are available in different proportioner sizes ranging from 2 ½ inches to 6 inches with flow rates from 30 GPM to 4887 GPM.
