The Power Foamer is designed to be installed as a ring main system (see Fig 1). It is powered by the

parlour or farm compressor.

Position regulator box (A) where it is not likely to be damaged, where a supply of compressed air can be

easily connected to the 3 metre inlet pipe and where fine pressure adjustment can be easily made.

Routing the ring main tube (B) will depend on the parlour design.

For High level (Fig 2) designs it will ideally be positioned above the rump rail with the long tail of the coil

(D) connected via a "T" fitting (C) and fixed to a suitable upright with cable ties (H). Use 2 cable ties to

secure each T-piece firmly to support. Alternatively it can be routed along the centre of the parlour.

For Low level (Fig 3) parlours it can conveniently be routed below the cow standing.

CAUTION : Do not over tighten the cable ties used to secure the tubing, as air flow may be restricted.

IMPORTANT: "T" fitting and gun entry fitting are "push-in" and can be released by holding the flange in

and pulling out the tubing (see diagrams overleaf). Foam Applicators should be positioned such that all

milking points can be reached comfortably without over-stretching the coils. Extension kits are available

to enable as many Applicators as required to be installed.

If no suitable horizontal bar is available on which to hang the unit, it may be necessary to attach

brackets (not included), or a hanging rail.

Open inlet valve at regulator box (A) and remove the enclosure lid. Pressurise the system, then turn Off

the inlet valve. The pressure gauge should show no drop in pressure. If a drop is seen, ensure that all

tubes are fully engaged in the push-in fittings and test again.

Open inlet valve at regulator (A), which will be factory set at 3 psi (0.2 bar).

Fill bottle (G) with suitable foaming teat product (pre or post) to 300ml mark on the bottle – DO NOT

OVERFILL. Bottle can either be unscrewed from Applicator (F) with gun (E) attached or after releasing

from the gun bayonet (Fig 4).

When ready to dip, depress the trigger until foam is level or just above the rim of Applicator (F) and

raise fully onto teat (Fig 5).

Normal operating pressure is in the range 2 - 3 psi (0.15 – 0.2 bar); fine tuning may be necessary for

different chemicals, foam consistency, speed and number of guns in operation.

If foam is too "wet" then increase the operating pressure slightly to correct.

Pressure adjustment must be carried out with one of the guns detached from its Applicator and held

open.

Clean applicators DAILY, rinsing the foaming gauze well in warm water to remove any residues – this is

particularly important to avoid blockages, if using an iodine-based chemical.

Keep guns clean – particularly in trigger area - to avoid trigger valve sticking.

IMPORTANT: to reduce any potential for condensation in the air line, please adhere to the compressor

manufacturer's recommendation at all times and drain filter and tank regularly.
