PRECAUTIONS (cont...)
- Be extremely careful in
the presence of hazardous
substances (e.g. corrosives,
toxins, solvents, acids, caustic,
flammables, etc.).
- Before applying any aggressive
chemicals, please consult
your distributor to confirm
compatibility with the dosing
pump.
IMPORTANT !
It is the responsibility of the
owner/operator to check that
the flow and pressure of the
installation do not exceed the
DOSATRON characteristics.
- Adjustmentmust be made
when there is no pressure in the
Dosatron. -Turn off the water
supply and allow the pressure to
drop to zero.
- It is the responsibility of
the owner/operator of the
DOSATRON, to determine the
correct amount of solution and
injection ratio to obtain the desired
result.
- An air inlet, an impurity or a
chemical attack on seal can
interrupt the dosing function. It
is recommended to periodically
check that the solution is being
correctly drawn up into the
DOSATRON.
- Change the suction tube as
soon as it seems damaged by the
chemical.
- Relieve the pressure after use
(advised).
- Rinsing of the DOSATRON is

required :
. when changing chemicals,
. before handling the DOSATRON,
to avoidany contact with the
chemical.
- All assembly should be done
without tools, hand tighten only.
2 - WATER WITH HIGH
PARTICLE CONTENT
- A (ex.: 60 microns - 300 mesh
depending on your water quality)
water filter must be installed
upstream from the DOSATRON
(see accessories), if a filter is
not installed abrasive substances
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.
IMPORTANT ! Not For Human
Consumption.
5 - MAINTENANCE
- Rinse the injection areas after
using the DOSATRON. To do this,
insert suction 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. Replace the injection
seals as well as the suction
hose annually to ensure proper
injection.
6 - SERVICE
- This DOSATRON was tested
prior to packaging.
- Complete maintenance and seal
kits are available.
- Call your DOSATRON distributor
for service or parts.
