❑
To prevent electrical shock always disconnect the primary power source
before attempting to service any part of the Hale FoamLogix System.
❑
All electrical systems have the potential to cause sparks during service.
Take care to eliminate explosive or hazardous environments during ser-
vice and/or repair.
❑
To prevent system damage or electrical shock the main power supply
wire is the last connection made to the Hale Foam Proportioner Distribu-
tion Box.
❑
Release all pressure then drain all concentrate and water from the sys-
tem before servicing any of its component parts.
❑
Do not operate the system at pressures higher than the maximum rated
pressure.
❑
Use only pipe, hose, and fittings from the foam pump outlet to the injector
fitting, which are rated at or above the maximum pressure rating at which
the water pump system operates.
❑
Hale Foam proportioning systems are designed for use on negative
ground direct current electrical systems only.
❑
Do not mount radio transmitters or transmitter cables in direct or close
contact with the FoamLogix Control Unit.
❑
Before connecting the cord sets and wiring harnesses, inspect the seal
washer in the female connector.
If the seal washer is missing or damaged, water can enter the connector
causing corrosion. This could resulting in possible system failure.
❑
Always disconnect the power cable, ground straps, electrical wires and
control cables from the control unit or other Hale Foam system equip-
ment before electric arc welding at any point on the apparatus
Failure to do so could result in a power surge through the unit that could
cause irreparable damage.
❑
DO NOT connect the main power lead to small leads that are supplying
some other device, such as a light bar or siren.
The Hale FoamLogix, Models 3.3, 5.0 and 6.5, require 60 AMP mini-
mum current.
❑
When operating the Hale FoamLogix in Simulated Flow Mode, an outlet
for the foam concentrate must be provided to prevent excessive pressure
buildup in the discharge piping or hoses.
