OPERATION
The TurboFoam system automatically injects foam concentrate into the water ow to provide a consistent
foam solution at the discharge regardless of water ow uctuations.
When power is supplied to the system, the control module FLOW display shows OFF, the message display
shows the date and time or total ow rate for all sensors when a summing box is installed.
When the ON/OFF button is pressed the LED comes on and the control module is active in the auto mode.
The FLOW display shows the water discharge ow rate
The % display shows the last used value or the preset value (based on program code P116).
The message display shows AUTO A(B) and moving arrows to indicate the foam concentrate pump RPM.
With a TankVision Pro connected and program set for tank status (codes P314,P315) the message display
shows the foam type and time remaining at current ow rates A XX.Xm.
Note: The program allows the end user to set the range and the specic increments that are used to
control foam percentage concentration with the + and – buttons.
The PRESET or the + and – buttons are used to adjust the amount of concentrate (changing the percent)
injected into the discharge water ow to create the foam solution. Both of these functions are programmable to
meet the operators requirements.
If a monitored function is not within normal parameters the FLOW display shows an error or fault warning code
and a description shows in the message display. (Refer to Table 5. Error Codes or Table 6. Fault Warning Codes.)
The remote on/off switch and indicator option duplicate the ON/OFF button and LED. The optional ush
on/off switch and indicator controls the optional ush valve.
