ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an apparatus which permits a user to operate a compressed-air foam generating apparatus by activating a single valve which initiates all necessary pressures and flows to create and discharge a flow of compressed-air foam. By use of a master valve to control gas pressure from a gas pressure source and by routing of this gas for pumping and mixing operations, the user opens the master valve to initiate apparatus operation producing compressed-air foam flow and dispensing through a dispensing hose.
