Assembling The Dosatron - dosatron DI 1500 Manuel D'utilisation

PRECAUTIONS (cont...)
1 - GENERAL REMARKS (cont...)
- Before applying any aggressive
chemicals, please consult your dis-
tributor to confirm compatibility
with the dosing pump.
- All assembly should be done
without tools, hand tighten only.
2 - WATER WITH HIGH PARTICLE
CONTENT
- A (ex.: 300 mesh - 60 microns depen-
ding on your water quality) water
filter must be installed upstream from
the DOSATRON (see accessories), if a
filter is not installed abrasive substan-
ces will cause the DOSATRON to
deteriorate prematurely.
3 - WATER-HAMMER / EXCESSIVE
FLOW
- For installations subject to water
hammer a protection device such as
a check valve or union ball check
must be fitted (pressure/flow
control system).
- For automatic installations, slow
opening and closing solenoid valves
are preferable.
- In an installation where a
DOSATRON serves several sectors, the
closing of one sector and the opening
of another sector must be done at the
same time (simultaneous operation of
the solenoid valves).

4 - INSTALLATION LOCATION
- The location of the DOSATRON and
concentrate container should be
accessible, but should never present
a risk of pollution or contamination.
- It is recommended to label all
water lines with a warning about
the injected solution i.e. Not For
Human Consumption.
5 - MAINTENANCE
- Rinse the injection areas after using
the DOSATRON. To do this, insert suc-
tion tube into a container of clean
water and inject about 1/4 liter
[8 1/2 US Fl.oz].
- Routine maintenance once a year
will add to the life of your DOSATRON.
Change the dosing seals at least once
a year, depending on its use.
6 - SERVICE
- This DOSATRON was tested prior to
packaging.
- Complete maintenance and seal
kits are available.
- Call your DOSATRON distributor for
service or parts.

The DOSATRON is delivered with a suction tube (cut it to the needed
length) enabling its use with a large capacity concentrate container.
The tube must be fitted with its strainer and weights.
The instructions for fitting the tube are to be found in the specific chapter.
NOTE : The maximum suction height is 4 meters (13 vertical feet).
Fit the tube, equipped with its strainer and its weight, and immerse it in the
solution to be injected.

Snap the DOSATRON into the
bracket by fitting the two lugs on
one side of the body (Fig. 1-A) into
the corresponding holes in the
bracket (Fig. 1-B), and springing the
bracket arms apart until the other 2
lugs click into place.
B
Remove the plastic caps (Fig. 1-C)
which block the inlet and outlet of
your DOSATRON before connecting
to the water supply.
The DOSATRON can be connected
to the water supply by means of
Ø 20 x 27 (3/4") bore flexible hose
and hose tail fittings with hose clips.
Make certain that the water flows in
the direction of the arrows on the
motor body.
