SmartFOAM
The display border color on the operation screen indicates
the system power condition and the foam concentrate tank
currently selected.
Gray
- the system is currently OFF.
Green - the system is currently ON and foam tank A is se-
lected.
Yellow - the system is currently ON and foam tank B is se-
lected (the foam B color is selectable in the USER
menu to be either red or yellow).
Red
- the system is currently ON and foam tank B is se-
lected (the foam B color is selectable in the USER
menu to be either red or yellow).
When the ON/OFF
button is pressed the border color will
change from gray to green (or yellow/red). If water flow is
present the foam pump starts and injects foam concentrate
into the discharge stream.
Note: If the operation screen was entered by pressing one of
the preset buttons then the foam system will be ON.
The bar graph lights when foam is being injected and indi-
cates system capacity.
When the ON/OFF
button is pressed again the border color
will change to gray indicating that the system is in STANDBY
mode and the foam pump STOPS. However, other system
monitoring functions continue (water flow rate, total water
flowed).
DISPLAYED INFORMATION
Water Flow
The water flow display shows the current flow rate of water
of foam solution per minute in the Hale flow sensor moni-
tored discharges. The flow rate is determined by the paddle-
wheel flow sensor rate and the water flow calibration factor.
Foam Concentrate Percent
The foam concentrate percent display shows the foam con-
centrate injection rate setting (0.1% to 9.9%).
Total Water Flow
The total water flow display shows the total amount of water
or foam solution pumped through the flow sensor monitored
discharges. This totalized value may be reset in the main
menu. It is also reset any time the SmartFOAM controller
power is disrupted.
Total Foam Flow
The total foam flow display shows the total amount of foam
concentrate pumped for the currently selected foam tank.
This totalized value may be reset in the main menu. It is
also reset any time the SmartFOAM distribution box power is
disrupted.
Motor Percent Bar Graph
The bar graph indicates what capacity of the motor is cur-
rently being used to inject the foam concentrate from 0% to
100%. The bar graph fills from the left (0%) to the right
(100%).
When water is flowing the bar graph begins showing to indi-
cate foam concentrate is being injected. The amount of bar
graph showing provides an indication of the approximate
pump capacity being used.
RESET WATER/FOAM TOTALS
The totalized values for water and foam concentrate pumped
are cleared from memory by using the Reset (Zero) Total
buttons in the main menu.
Enter the main menu by pressing the MENU button from the
preset or operation screen.
Press the Reset Total Water and/or Reset Total Foam but-
tons.
Note: These totals are also automatically reset any time the
system power is disrupted.

FOAM CONCENTRATE INJECTION RATE
The foam concentrate injection rate can be changed by
pressing the HOME button to go back to the preset screen
and select another preset OR by pressing the IN-
CREASE/DECREASE foam percent buttons on the opera-
tion screen.
WARNING MESSAGES
Several safety features are incorporated into the Hale Smart-
FOAM system to protect the foam concentrate pump, electric
motor and apparatus wiring while maintaining personnel
safety.
Messages appearing on the display alert the operator to ad-
verse conditions that could cause damage to Hale Smart-
FOAM system components, the apparatus, or which could
cause personnel injury.
The messages appear on a colored warning ribbon (red or
blue) at the bottom of the screen.
