Install Plumbing
All TurboFoam system components are shipped with the plumbing ttings installed. The standard kit ttings
are in American National Pipe thread (an option is available for kit ttings to be British Standard Pipe thread).
Hose and hose ttings are not supplied in the kits. It is recommended that the installer use ttings with NPT
(National Pipe Taper) (or BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper)) threads to make all pressure line connections to
the system components.
A waterway check valve is required to prevent foam from entering the water pump. The waterway check
valve is available as an option in multiple sizes and with various congurations that include the ow sensor mount.
The ow sensor is mounted in the discharge line. Refer to Install Flow Sensor(s) for ow sensor location
and mounting information. The check valve injector is installed down stream.
There are four typical plumbing congurations for the TurboFoam system. Depended on the specic model
and optional equipment these may vary.
TFC100/200 Single Tank
TFC100/200/300 Single Tank with Electric Flush Valve
TFC200 Two Tank with Manual ABF Selector Valve
TFC400 Two Tank with Electric ABF Selector Valve
Refer to the plumbing diagrams for detailed information.
Foam Tank and Concentrate Pump Intake Low Pressure Lines
Clear Suction Hose, 23" (584mm) Hg Vacuum, 50 PSI (3 bar)
Connect the tanks to the selector valves and/or the concentrate pump input. Check valves need to be installed
to protect the tanks from water inltration. A strainer is required to protect the input to the concentrate pump.
Concentrate Pump Intake High Pressure Lines
Clear Suction/Pressure Hose, 23" (584mm) Hg Vacuum, 500 PSI (34 bar)
Except 2.1 GPM requires 650 PSI (45 bar)
Connect the selector or ush valves to the concentrate pump input. All lines and ttings down stream of the
ush valve are required to be for high pressure.
Water Flush and Foam Concentrate Injection High Pressure Lines
Pressure Hose, 23" (584mm) Hg Vacuum, 500 PSI (34 bar)
Except 2.1 GPM requires 650 PSI (45 bar)
Connect the water ush line to the selector valve and/or tank line tee. The water ush line requires a check
valve and strainer. Connect the concentrate pump pressure output to the check valve injector.
