Operating in Manual Mode

The foam system can operate in manual mode as required by the NFPA 

regulation. While in manual mode, the foam system injects concentrate into 

the waterway with or without water flowing. The OIT is used to increase or 

decrease the motor speed and FOAM % is controlled manually.

Do not operate beyond

recommended pressure.

Liquid ejected at high

pressure can cause 

serious injury.

High Pressure

Do not operate while all discharges or drains are closed. High 

pressure results and damages the foam system, its components.

1.  Press and hold the 

 (ON/OFF button) for 2 seconds. The blue 

indicator blinks at a faster (2 Hz) rate.

2.  Turn the 

 (FOAM % dial) to increase or decrease the motor 

speed.

3.  Press the 

 (ON/OFF button) to exit manual mode. 

Understanding the LED Indicators

Blue LED
•  Solid on—The system is in standby mode.
•  Flashing, slowly (1 Hz)—The system is injecting the concentrate.
•  Flashing, quickly (2 Hz)—The system is in manual mode.
Red LED
• 

Solid on—No concentrate, the system is off line.

•  Flashing —The concentrate in the tank is low.
