MORPEN "SOFIR" is a synthetic, biodegradable foaming agent for special purposes. It is used in fire extinguishing with the use sea and fresh (off-shore) water on ships, and other objects of the sea and river fleet. It is used for extinguishing with air-mechanical foam of low, medium and high multiplicity of combustible, solid (class A) and liquid (class B) substances, except polar liquids. MORPEN "SOFIR" is low-toxic, difficult to fire and corresponds to IV class according to GOST 12.1.007-76 - "low-hazard substances". MORPEN "SOFIR" is authorized for application by the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping using foam-generating equipment of medium multiplicity and by Russian River Register and fully meets the requirements of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (Solas-74).
