SECTION 1. SAFETY
, Everyone’s Concern
Please read all of the following safety precautions and follow carefully. They are important to
the prevention of personal injury or damage to the equipment.
1. Do not pump at pressures higher than the maximum recommended pressure. [400 psi
(28 BAR)]
2. Do not permanently remove or alter any guarding devices or attempt to operate the
system when these guards are temporarily removed.
3. Always disconnect the power source before attempting to service any part of the pump.
4. Release all pressure within the system before servicing any of its components.
5. Drain all concentrate and water from the discharge system before servicing any of its
component parts.
6. Check all hoses for weak or worn conditions on a regular basis. Ensure that all
connections and fittings are tight and secure.
7. Use only pipe, hose, and fittings from the foam pump outlet to the injector fitting, which
are rated at or above the maximum pressure [400 psi (28 BAR) minimum] rating at which
the water pump system operates.
8. Any electrical system has the potential to cause sparks during service. Take care to
eliminate explosive or hazardous environments during service/repair.
Caution:
Do not attempt to operate the system at or above a temperature of 160°F (71°C)
Ensure that the electrical source of power for the unit is the appropriate 12 or 24
volt, negative ground DC system, with a minimum current rating of at least 60
amps for 12 VDC or 30 amps for 24 VDC System.
Periodically inspect the pump and the system components. Perform routine
preventive maintenance as required. Failure to perform routine maintenance may
cause damage to the pump.
Read and understand ―Operation‖ section before attempting to operate the unit.
Always disconnect the ground straps and control cables from the control module or
other Aquis equipment before electric arc welding at any point on the apparatus.
Failure to do so will result in a power surge through the unit that could cause
irreparable damage to the system components.
The cables shipped with each Aquis unit are tested at the factory. Improper
handling and forcing connections can damage these cables which could result in
other system damage.
