Figure 8-1 FoamPro AccuMax SP System Piping

Water and Foam Plumbing

Component Installation

The following diagram (Figure 8-1) provides

recommended guidelines for the installation of the

system components that handle water, foam

concentrate and foam solution. Note that additional

options such as dual-tank system, multiple flowmeters,

etc., are covered by the individual manuals included with

those systems and consideration must be given to

potential interferences.
