Safety Introduction
AQUIS ULTRAFLOW Industrial Foam Proportioner System
The AQUIS ULTRAFLOW industrial foam proportioner system supplies concentrate into a solution-capable discharge line. A Tellurus™ touchscreen display, or
human machine interface (HMI), shows system activity, and provides control over the system using a CANbus protocol. Foam concentrate is sourced from an
on-board supply tank or an auxiliary source. The concentrate pump distributes concentrate though the discharge line assembly (DLA) using hydraulic
components, where it is measured, controlled, and introduced into the solution-capable discharge line to produce foam solution. Understand that your application
will include all or portions of the components described.

Product Overview
Description Description
This monitors and controls the foam proportioning system. The components in this subsystem include:
• Tellurus display (HMI)—this displays system operation and provides control of the system.
• Control box—this connects to various components in the system and contains the programmable logic controllers (PLC).
• Manual override switch—this disables the automatic control of the concentrate control valves.
• Power disconnect relay—this power relay enables and disables power to the DLA.
• Remote I/O—this adds a node controller to the system for additional options required in your application.
• Various cables—these provide communication and power to system components.
This manages the concentrate injected into the solution-capable discharge. The system can control up to 19 DLAs. The
components in this subsystem include:
• Node controller—this connects to, and controls, the concentrate control valve, reads the flowmeters and the discharge
pressure transducer.
• Split CANbus cable—this connects the node controllers to one another and the control box.
• DLA terminating resistor—this terminates the CANbus connection on the last node controller or valve in the CANbus
chain.
• Concentrate control valve—this controls the concentrate flow.
• Magnetic flowmeter—this measures the concentrate flow.
• Check valve—this prevents contamination of concentrate by preventing reverse fluid flow in the line.
This includes the installer-supplied water pump, distribution manifold, plumbing, and additional components that produce
water flow. Additional components in this subsystem include:
• Paddlewheel flowmeter—this measures the amount of water flowing in the discharge. Note: You can install the
paddlewheel flowmeter upstream or downstream of where the concentrate is injected into the waterway.
• Water pump pressure transducer—this measures the pressure at the pump discharge. Note: Some applications prohibit
measuring discharge pressure at the pump, in those applications alternative measurement methods are used.
• Solution discharge pressure transducer—this measures the pressure at the solution capable discharge.
