Foam can decrease vacuum lift and eventually ruin the vac motor. The Foam Downer kills foam as waste water enters the machine. It uses a hook to hang a jug of liquid defoamer from your portable. Foam Downer injects defoamer into the vac hose. Your portable suffers no power loss from foam and your motor suffers no damage.
•Mounts and is ready to use in seconds
•Uses defoamer very economically
•NO LABOR is involved to spray or spread defoamer – it’s all automatic
•Keeps silicone defoamers off the floor where they can deposit and cause soiling and problems later The Foam Downer is an attachment that draws a small amount of defoamer in a constant slow flow into the waste tank of Olympus through its vacuum system. We recommend diluting a gallon at 1 to 32 and open the needle nose valve up one half turn as a starting place. If not sufficient you can decrease the dilution, or open up the valve more. At one half turn it will take approximately one half hour to drain the gallon of diluted defoamer. The hose hook holds the gallon of diluted defoamer on the front of the Olympus as shown in the pictures.
