NHTSA recall campaign
19E055000
What was wrong
Defect
Hale Products Inc. (Hale) is recalling certain SmartFoam 6.5-12 foam pump systems with a 12 volt power supply. The foam pump system can overheat and fail, causing fire fighting foam chemical to be unavailable to fight a fire.
Risk
If the fire fighting foam chemical injection is unavailable, it can impact the fire fighting and/or vapor mitigation efforts, which increases the risk of injury to bystanders and emergency personnel.
Manufacturer remedy
Hale will notify the fire truck manufacturers that purchased the equipment, and dealers for those companies will replace the SmartFoam 6.5 12 volt systems with SmartFoam 6.5 24 volt systems and a voltage converter, free of charge. The recall began September 11, 2019. Final remedy letter was sent November 11, 2019. Owners may contact Hale customer service at 1-800-533-3569. Hale's number for this recall is SB-175.
