FOAM/CAFS OPERATION
ENGAGE THE PUMP
WARNING
DO NOT APPLY HYDRANT PRESSURE TO PUMP SUCTION WHEN OPERATING CAFS. MAY BE
OPERATED FROM OPEN WATER OR TANK FEED ONLY
NOTE: The automatic tank-to-pump open function is a menu selectable item and must be set for
“automatic: for this operation to occur (this is the default). The SmartCAFS Controller will automatically
open the tank-to-pump valve (see note) when the pump engaged signal is recognized.
NOTE: The SmartCAFS Controller will automatically engage the compressor clutch when the pump
engaged signal is recognized OR when a CAFS preset button is first pressed. This operation is a menu
selectable item. If pump input speed is >900rpm the compressor will not engage and a plain text error
message will appear. Reduce speed below 900 RPM then the CAFS compressor can be engaged.
NOTE: When discharging dry foam at low pump pressure, the possibility of hose kinking is increased
and should be considered when deploying hoses.
START FOAM/CAFS OPERATION BY SELECTING A PRESET (OR MANUAL)
Press and hold the desired preset button for 0.5 seconds. The display will show an information
bar to indicate to keep holding the button for the required time.
The display will then show the operation screen. The SmartCAFS Controller is now ready to
manage the foam/CAF System as the preset dictates when water flow is detected. Water flow is
the driving factor for system operation in both “foam only” or “foam and air” (CAFS).
