Note: The typical preset for the foam proportioning system is to inject Class A

foam concentrate into the water stream at 0.5%. This value can be set to 0.3%,

0.4% or any other percentage the department deems appropriate. Normally

CAFS operates between 0.3% and 0.5% Class “A” foam. Class “B” foams are

proportioned at their listed percent, usually 1% or 3%.

Simply throttle up to the desired operating pressure, normally 90 to 100 PSI

(5.5 to 6.0 BAR), and open the appropriate discharge valve. High quality

Class “A” Compressed Air Foam is discharged into the hose line.

Note: The CAFSPro’s operating pressure range is 75 to 150 psi (5 to 10.3 BAR).

FoamLogix Push Button Display

(See Figure 4-2: ‘Hale FoamLogix Control Unit.’)

To simplify pump operation, Hale has designed ergonomic displays,

arranged in a side-by-side format. On the left, is the foam injection system

display controller. On the right, is the compressed air controller display.

Refer to the Hale FoamLogix com-

plete installation, operation and

maintenance manual for addi-

tional information, (Hale p/n: 029-

0020-68-0).

A RED power button powers the

system ON and OFF. Directly to

the right is the SWITCH DIS-

PLAYS button.

The

i button cycles through four

data informational displays, which

includes a red LED to indicate the

active display.

❑ FLOW - is the current volume

of foam solution (liquid) that is

moving out of the foam manifold. This displays the real-time flow so the

pump operator can keep track of how much solution is flowing out of the

pump and into hose lines. When foam is not being used, this display

continues to show the water flow rate delivered by the stainless steel

foam manifold.

❑ FOAM INJECTION RATE (%) - is the current proportioning rate that

foam concentrate is being injected into the water stream to make foam

solution.
