PROFOAM SST

1. General Description

PROFOAM SST is an improved concept of foam station, robust, easy to use, strong and
covered equipment, the ideal solutions in places where users can not come in contact with
hydraulic circuit. Ex: Industrial surface cleaning

We expect to have PROFOAM SST basic version for producing dry foam:

• PROFOAM SST - material S/St

PROFOAM SST - General Features:

• Part to connect the air which will include the proper foam venturi made in AISI316(possibility to

• Water + chemical pressure gauge
• Standard pneumatic components (air pressure regulator with pressure gauge, air check valve, air
shut-off valve, quick connection for air hose)
• Stainless steel support and enclosure, wall mounted, plate thickness 1mm (AISI304)
• Working pressure 1,5 - 6 bar
• Maximum working pressure 10 bar
• Air pressure 1,5 - 6 bar
• Inlet/outlet connections: quick connection/exterior thread ¾”
• Estimated dimensions (LxWxH): 145x110x250mm

II. Preparation for test

1. Complete assembly of the PROFOAM SST UNIT with the non return valve (NR plasctic
valve FPM or EPDM seat)
2. Mount the PROFOAM SST unit on a wall at aprox. 1.4m (distance between the ground and
the discharge connection of the unit)
3. Considering the assembly procedures showed below mount the accessories:

4. Insert into the chemical can the yellow foot filter and make sure that the length of the hose
is adjusted in order that the yellow foot filter to be positioned vertically

III. Testing phase

Considering the fact that the most detergents and chemical used for cleaning and rinsing have the
viscosity value close to the viscosity value for water, the unit testing will be made as follows:
1. Testing liquid: foam chemical
2. First thing that we must test is the possibility to obtain the calculated concentration of the mixed
product for each specific metering tip according to the following table:

3. In order to calculate the concentration, follow the below procedure: °

4. Open the shut-off valve and set the dynamic pressure at 2.5BAR. the line free discharge flow
rate should be 30/min
5. Open the shut-off air valve and set the air pressure at 4 BAR (for good quality dry foam the
air pressure must be with 1.5 bar higher then water pressure)
6. Check the quality of the dry foam and make the necessary water and air pressure adjustment
until the foam produced sticks to the wall.
7. If these conditions are passed the second stage testing is passed.
ADDITIOANL TEST
If it possible, we will need to develop a static pressure test for the PROFOAM SST units at 20Bars.

IV. Performance test

1. Set the units line free discharge flow rate, if possible, at 30l/min or at the best line free flow
rate that we can reach
2. Set the pressure, first, at 1 bar and in wash mode measure the flowrate in l/min and the
chemical drawn in l/min. With this data we will be able the establish the ratio X:1
3. Make sure that the chemical drawn test is made WITHOUT USING ANY
CONCENTRATION TIP
4. Repeat these measurements until also for the pressure ranges between 1 - 4 bars or
between 1 - 3.5 bar.
5. At the end of these test we should be able to realize a performance graph as showed on
the bellow example:
