FOAMPRO 2001 / 2002 Pump Panel
FOAMPRO 2001 / 2002 System Description The FoamPro system 2001 / 2002 is an electric motor driven, flow based proportioning system. The system will accurately deliver foam concentrate to the injection point from 0.1 to 3.0%. A flow meter measures the water flow and sends a signal to the digital display control module. Another sensor monitors the foam pump output. Constant comparison of the two information signals ensures the selected proportioning ratio over flow rates of 20 – 2000 Lpm at all times.
FOAMPRO 2001 / 2002 System Description Foam is injected directly into the discharge side of the appliance pump, check valves are used to prevent contamination of the appliance pump and first aid tank. Control and monitoring are achieved by two visual display units mounted on the pump panel.

Reticulation System Type 3 Medium Pumper
Class A and B Selection FoamPro units fitted to Pumpers including Type 4 Type 3 Heavy & Type 3 Medium are fitted with both A & B Class foam capability.
Class A and B Selection and Flushing A switch mounted in the centre of the pump panel facilitates selection between A & B class foam concentrate. Lights fitted to the panel indicate the type of foam that is in use. When selecting between foam types, an eight second flush cycle is activated to prevent different concentrates mixing in the system.
Digital Display Control Control and Display Multiflow Interface Digital Display Control
Multy Flow Interface The Multiflow Interface allows a total of four flow meters to be used The display will show the discharge flow on the selected flow meter. Lights indicate which discharge is being monitored. Button A - onside front Button B - onside rear Button C - live hose reel Button D - not used (option roof monitors)

Activating The System To activate the system push the on button. The on status lamp will indicate that system ready
Selecting Between Functions Use Select Button to change between functions Indicator lamps will show current function selected
Status Lamps Status Lamps ON – run stand by status Flow – water flow rate Total Water – total water flow % -- Foam Total Foam – total concentrate flowed
Foam Production Activate system with on button Select % function with select button Select proportioning ratio required with buttons The On light will flash to indicate that foam is being injected
Default Settings When foam % is initially selected the display will indicate the default setting for each type of foam: Class B 3% = pb 3 Class A 0.5% = pa 0.5 The default settings can be altered to the desired proportioning rate by pushing the buttons. pb 3 pa .5
Foam Production If your pumper has A / B foam capability through the FoamPro unit select the desired foam type.
Restoring Settings To restore settings to zero push both the buttons together.
Safety Features Several safety features are provided to protect the foam concentrate pump and electric motor. A coded message will be displayed on the Digital Control unit to indicate the fault or problem.
Low Foam Tank Level LO CON If the foam concentrate tank is empty the pump will not run for more than two minutes. A low foam concentrate tank level is denoted by “LO CON” blinking on the display. This code will alternate with the normal display value shown. LO CON
Low Foam Tank Level If two consecutive minutes of low concentrate level is detected the display will show “NO CON” the pump will stop and the system will go into Stand By until the foam level is restored and the on button is depressed NO CON
Pump Error Motor stall protection In the event that the pump motor will not run or stalls for ten seconds the display will show “ERR.EL”. The system will return to off status to protect the electric motor and components ERR.EL
High / Low Flow Condition Whenever the foam pump cannot reach the selected level an indication of the status will blink in the background as Lo.Flo -- Foam delivery is below pump capability Hi.Flo -- The water delivery rate is too high for the foam pumps capacity L0.Flo Hi.Flo
