❑ Unless engaged in Class “B” foam operations, the air dual tank (ADT)
toggle switch, or the manual dual tank (MDT) II selector handle must be
in the TANK “A” or FLUSH position. If either is in the FLUSH position
when the foam system is started, the foam pump runs for approximately
twenty (20) seconds, then SHUTS DOWN.
❑ Make sure the foam tank and foam concentrate suction hoses are clean
before making final connections to the foam pump. If necessary flush the
tank and hoses prior to making connection.
❑ Check all hoses for weak or worn conditions after each use. Ensure that
all connections and fittings are tight and secure.
❑ Ensure that the electrical source of power for the unit is a negative (–)
ground DC system, of correct input voltage, with a reserve minimum cur-
rent available to drive the system.
❑ The in-line strainer/valve assembly is a low pressure device and CAN-
NOT withstand flushing water pressure in excess of 45 PSI (3 BAR).
When installing the in-line strainer in systems equipped with the Hale
MDT II or MST, make sure the in-line strainer/valve assembly is installed
on the “inlet” side of the valve.
If the strainer is subjected to flushing water, install Hale FS Series
strainers.
❑ When determining the location of the Hale FoamLogix System compo-
nents keep in mind piping runs, cable routing and other interferences that
could hinder or interfere with proper system performance.
❑ Always position the check valve/injector fitting at a horizontal or higher
angle to allow water to drain away from the fitting. This avoids the possi-
bility of sediment deposits or the formation of an ice plug.
❑ The cord sets provided with each Hale Foam system are 100% electri-
cally shielded assemblies.
NEVER attempt to shorten or lengthen the molded cables. If necessary,
order longer or shorter cord sets to suit your application needs.
❑ Each cord sets provided is indexed to ensure correct receptacle installa-
tion (they insert one way only).
When making cord set connections DO NOT force mismatched connec-
tions as damage can result in improper system operation.
❑ Make sure all connections are sound, and that each connection is
correct.
❑ The cables shipped with each Hale Foam system are 100% tested at the
factory with the unit. Improper handling and forcing connections can
damage these cables which could result in other system damage.
