SAFETY
Hale Foam systems are designed to provide reliable and safe foam concentrate injection.
Before installing or operating a Hale Foam system read all safety precautions and follow
carefully to ensure proper installation and personnel safety.
WARNINGS
1. Do not permanently remove or alter any
guard or insulating devices or attempt to
operate the system when these guards
are temporarily removed.
2. To prevent electrical shock always
disconnect the primary power source
before attempting to service any part of
the Hale Foam system.
3. All electrical systems have the potential
to cause sparks during service. Take
care to eliminate explosive or hazardous
environments during service/repair.
4. To prevent system damage or electrical
shock the main power supply wire will be
the last connection made to the Hale
Foam proportioner distribution box.
5. Release all pressure then drain all
concentrate and water from the system
before servicing any of its component
parts.
6. Rotating drive line components can
cause injury. When working on
components of the Hale Foam system
be careful of rotating components.
CAUTIONS
1. Foam tank low level sensors must be
utilized to protect the Hale Foam
proportioner from dry running. Failure to
use low level sensors with the Hale Foam
system will void warranty.
2. Do not operate system at pressures
higher than the maximum rated
pressure.
3. Use only pipe, hose, and fittings from the
foam pump outlet to the injector fitting,
which are rated at or above the
maximum pressure rating at which the
water pump system operates.
4. Hale Foam proportioning systems are
designed for use on negative ground
direct current electrical systems only.
5. Do not mount radio transmitter or
transmitter cables in direct or close
contact with the FoamLogix control unit.
6. Before connecting the cordsets and
wiring harnesses inspect the seal washer
in the female connector. If the seal
washer is missing or damaged, water
can enter the connector causing
corrosion of the pins and terminals
resulting in possible system failure.
7. Always disconnect the power cable,
ground straps, electrical wires and
control cables from the control unit or
other Hale Foam system equipment
before electric arc welding at any point
on the apparatus. Failure to do so could
result in a power surge through the unit
that could cause irreparable damage.
8. DO NOT connect the main power lead
to small leads that are supplying some
other device such as a light bar or siren.
The Hale FoamLogix Model 3.3 and
Model 5.0 require 60 AMP minimum
current.
9. When operating the Hale FoamLogix in
Simulated Flow mode an outlet for the
foam concentrate must be provided to
prevent excessive pressure buildup in
discharge piping or hoses.
10. Unless engaged in Class B foam
operations, the ADT toggle switch or
MDT II selector handle must be in the
TANK A or FLUSH position. If the toggle
switch or selector handle is in the FLUSH
position when the Hale Foam system
foam pump is started the foam pump
will only run for 20 seconds and shut
down.
11. Make sure the foam tank and foam
concentrate suction hoses are clean
before making final connection to foam
pump. If necessary flush tank and hoses
prior to making connection.

NOTES
1. Check all hoses for weak or worn
conditions after each use. Ensure that
all connections and fittings are tight and
secure.
2. Ensure that the electrical source of
power for the unit is a negative ground
DC system, of correct input voltage, with
a reserve minimum current available to
drive the system.
3. The in-line strainer/valve assembly is a
low pressure device and WILL NOT
withstand flushing water pressure. When
installing the in-line strainer in systems
equipped with Hale MDT ΙΙ or Hale MST
make sure the in-line strainer/valve
assembly is in the hose on the inlet side
of the valve. If the strainer will be
subject to flushing water pressure, use
Hale FS series strainers.
4. When determining the location of Hale
Foam system components keep in mind
piping runs, cable routing and other
interferences that will hinder or interfere
with proper system performance.
5. Always position the check valve/injector
fitting at a horizontal or higher angle to
allow water to drain away from the
fitting. This will avoid sediment deposits
or the formation of an ice plug.
6. The cordsets provided with each Hale
Foam system are 100% electrically
shielded assemblies. Never attempt to
shorten or lengthen the molded cables.
If necessary order longer or shorter
cordsets from Hale Products to suit the
particular installation.
7. The cordsets provided with each Hale
Foam system are indexed so they only
go in the correct receptacle and they
can only go in one way. When making
cordset connections DO NOT force
mismatched connections as damage
can result in improper system operation.
8. The system can only perform when the
electrical connections are sound, so

ELECTRONIC FOAM PROPORTIONING SYSTEM
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
ROTARY GEAR PUMP
Hale Foam proportioning systems are
completely engineered, factory matched
foam proportioning systems that provide
reliable, consistent foam concentrate
injection for Class A and Class B foam
operations. Hale FoamLogix Foam systems
accurately deliver from 0.1% to 10.0% foam
concentrate through a check valve/
injector fitting directly into the water
discharge stream. It is then fed as foam
solution into a standard fog nozzle, an air
aspirated nozzle, or CAFS equipment,
through the apparatus discharge piping. A
properly configured and installed foam
system with Hale recommended
components virtually eliminates
contamination of the booster tank, fire
pump and relief valve with foam
concentrate.
The heart of the Hale Foam system is an
electric motor driven rotary gear pump.
The pump is constructed of bronze and
stainless steel and is compatible with almost
all foam concentrates. The pump is close
coupled to the electric motor thereby
eliminating maintenance of an oil filled
gearbox. An internal relief valve,
constructed of stainless steel, protects the
foam pump and foam concentrate
discharge hoses from overpressurization
and damage.
The control unit, mounted on the operator
panel, is the single control point for the Hale
Foam system. Depressing the ON button
starts foam concentrate injection. A super
bright digital LED display shows the water
flow rate, total water flowed, foam
concentrate injection percentage and
total foam concentrate used depending on
the display mode selected. A bargraph on
the control unit provides indication of the
approximate system capacity being used.
Adjustment of foam concentrate injection
rate can be accomplished by pushing the
appropriate button while the system is
operating. The control unit display also
warns the operator when errors or
abnormal operations occur in the system.
Foam concentrate injection rate is
controlled by a computer chip in the
control unit for accurate, repeatable,
reliable foam concentrate injection. A
water flowsensor constantly monitors water
flow through the discharge piping. The
information from the flowsensor is provided
to the control unit by a shielded cable.
When the Hale Foam system is activated at
the control unit a signal is sent from the
control unit through the shielded control
cable to the distribution box to begin foam
concentrate injection. The distribution box
then provides power to the electric motor.
As the motor rotates the pump, foam
concentrate flows through the foam pump
discharge to the one piece check valve/
injector fitting into the water discharge
stream.
A feedback sensor in the foam pump body
measures foam concentrate flow. The
water flow rate and foam concentrate flow
rate are constantly compared by the
computer chip in the control unit. The
motor speed is constantly adjusted to
maintain the operator selected foam
concentrate injection rate. Since the
system is flow based, injection rate remains
constant regardless of changes in system
pressure or the number of discharges open.
There are two models of Hale Foam systems
covered by this manual. The Hale
FoamLogix Model 3.3 and Model 5.0. The
maximum rated foam concentrate flow in
gallons per minute is denoted by the model
number. Table 1 shows system capacities
at various foam concentrate injection rates
for the different Hale Foam Models.
Hale Foam systems can be configured to
operate with single or dual foam

concentrate tanks. Examples of the various
Hale Foam system configurations are shown
in figures 1-1 through 1-7 at the end of this
section.
The available Air Dual Tank (ADT) valve for
the Hale Foam system is an air operated
foam tank selector valve that provides
selection of foam concentrate dependent
on fire ground operational demands. The
ADT is an integral part of the foam pump
and provides an electrical interlock for the
low tank level sensors and concentrate
injection rate. A panel mounted selector
toggle switch with indicator lights controls
foam concentrate tank selection and shows
which foam concentrate tank is in use.
The Manual Dual Tank (MDT ΙΙ) selector
valve is available for the Hale Foam systems
with dual tanks. The MDT ΙΙ is a panel
mounted manually operated selector that
provides selection of foam concentrate
dependent on fire ground operational
demands. The MDT ΙΙ also provides an
electrical interlock for the low tank level
sensors and concentrate injection rate. It
should be noted that the MDT ΙΙ is not
suitable for top mount operator panel
installations and some side operator panels
due to gravity feed requirements of foam
concentrate to the foam pump.
Selection of the desired foam concentrate
tank with the ADT panel mounted toggle
switch or MDT ΙΙ selector will automatically

change the foam concentrate injection
rate to the preset default rate for the
selected foam tank. No further operator
intervention is required.
Single tank foam systems can be
configured with a Manual Single Tank (MST)
selector which provides a flush function
connection to the foam system electronic
controls.
The ADT, MDT ΙΙ and MST all provide the
check valves and connection points to
provide foam pump flushing capabilities.
Strainers available for Hale FoamLogix Foam
systems protect the foam pump from debris
that might accumulate in the foam
concentrate tank. The standard in-line
strainer/valve assembly has a composite
nonmetallic housing with stainless steel
mesh strainer element. It is provided with a
service shutoff valve, mounting bracket.
The strainer and valve have 1-1/4 NPT
threads and is supplied with fittings for
connection of either 1-1/4 inch (32 mm) ID,
1 inch (25 mm) ID or ¾ inch (19 mm) ID
foam concentrate suction hose. The in-line
strainer/valve assembly is suitable for use
with both Class A and Class B foam
concentrates. The in-line strainer/valve
assembly is designed for installations where
the strainer is mounted in the foam pump
suction line and IS NOT subject to flushing
water pressure.
Hale FS series strainers are panel mounted
strainers with a 500 PSIG (34 BAR) pressure
rating suitable for use where flushing water
pressure will go through the strainer. The
FS15 strainer has ¾ inch NPT connection
ports and a 1-½ inch NST cap and is suitable
for use with Class A and low viscosity Class B
foam concentrates. The FS25 strainer has 1
inch NPT connection ports and a 2-½ inch
NST cap and is suitable for use with both
Class A and Class B foam concentrates.
All Hale FoamLogix Foam systems require a
flowsensor for operation.
