Fire fighting equipment uses an electronically controlled direct injection foam delivery system. A water pump pumps water through a pipe. A foam pump pumps foam into a mixing chamber within the pipe to produce a water-foam mixture. A microprocessor-based control unit controls the water pump and foam pump. A conductivity sensor is coupled in-line with the pipe for monitoring conductivity of the mixture and providing a feedback signal to the control unit to regulate the foam pump. A speed sensor monitors the foam usage. The conductivity sensor uses stainless steel plates positioned in the flow stream of the pipe for measuring conductivity of the mixture. A second conductivity sensor monitors conductivity of the water and provides a feedback signal to the control unit. An interface circuit generates a voltage having dual polarity and a fifty percent duty cycle for the conductivity sensors.
