Vertical Bladder Tank

Foam Equipment
Written By Mark Bowden

The Angus Fire bladder tank is a steel pressure vessel fitted with an internal bladder that stores foam concentrate. It is an integral component of the bladder tank proportioning system.

During operation, water supplied to the bladder tank displaces the foam concentrate and collapses the bladder until the concentrate is depleted. The bladder tank discharges foam concentrate at approximately the same pressure as the water supplied at the water inlet connection to the tank. As the bladder tank is pressurised, the bladder cannot be refilled during operation.
