CAUTION ! - continued
IF THE STRAINER IS SUBJECT TO FLUSHING WATER PRESSURE, USE
HALE “FS” SERIES STRAINERS.
Mount the in-line foam strainer/valve assembly in the foam concentrate
hose from the foam tank to the foam pump suction connection, ADT, MDT II
or MST.
If panel mounted FS series strainers are installed, mount the strainer in the
foam concentrate hose that supplies concentrate to the ADT, MDT II or
MST. The FS series strainer may also be mounted in the outlet hose of the
MDT II or MST.
IMPORTANT !
WHEN DETERMINING THE STRAINER LOCATION KEEP IN MIND THE
REQUIREMENT FOR GRAVITY FEED OF FOAM CONCENTRATE TO THE
FOAM PUMP THROUGH THE STRAINER AND AVOID AIR TRAPS IN THE
HOSES. ALSO, CLEARANCE MUST BE PROVIDED TO ALLOW REMOVAL OF
THE BOWL ASSEMBLY TO CLEAN THE STAINLESS STEEL MESH, TO MAKE
HOSE CONNECTIONS TO THE STRAINER AND FOR OPERATION OF THE
SERVICE VALVE.
The installer must provide a strainer service isolation valve in the foam con-
centrate hose to prevent spillage during service. An MST or MDT II can
serve this purpose.
3.3 CONTROL UNIT / INSTRUCTION PLACARD
Determine a location on the operator panel of the apparatus for the control
unit and instruction/system diagram placard, if provided. These compo-
nents must be located at the main pump operator position in close proximity
to each other. Consideration must be given for routing the control cable
from the control unit to the distribution box on the foam pump and motor
assembly.
If necessary, order longer or shorter cable assemblies to suit the location
demands.
