Keep it for future reference; ARAG reserves the right to modify the specifications and instructions regarding the product at any time and without prior notice.
Do not operate the valve with no load for long periods of time, as this might damage the components inside the valve. ARAG can not be held responsible for direct or indirect damage caused by the type of fluids used for spraying and crop spraying applications.
50 mesh, together with a safety valve to limit use pressure at the specified max. value (12 bar). CAUTION: ARAG is not liable for damage to the system, persons, animals or things caused by the use of material other than specified. Failure to observe the above instructions automatically voids the warranty.
INSTALLATION Electric connections The tank filling system must be connected using the supplied cables. valve cable 12 Vdc to flowmeter to computer (e.g., Bravo 400s, Bravo 300s) - Remove the protection cap from the valve - Position seal (1 in Fig. A) onto connector (2 in Fig. A), then connect the latter pressing it fully home (3 in Fig.
Regarding connections, use tubes and fittings properly sized for the operating pres- sure of the system. Use Arag T6 fittings (see general catalogue) with female fork coupling. Do not use elbow fittings. WARNING: For the implementation on already operating systems it is necessary to follow all safety rules described herein.
INSTALLATION Monitor rotation In case of vertical assembly, to simplify the use of the DigiWolf it is possible to rotate the monitor by 90° with respect to the body. 1) Remove the fork from the monitor using a screwdriver. 2) Remove the monitor from the flowmeter body. If the monitor is turned upside down, the letters A and B can be seen: these correspond to the two possible monitor positions (parallel and perpendicular to the...

SETUP PReliMinaRy SetuP fOR uSe For a correct display of data regarding treatment, some preliminary set ups are necessary when installing DigiWolf on farming machines. Operating mode selection (FILLING / FLOWRATE) DigiWolf can be used to measure the flowrate of a fluid in a hydraulic circuit ("Flowrate" mode), or to control the filling of a tank by stopping the introduction of liquid once the set quantity has been reached ("Filling"...

- To avoid damaging the flowmeter, do not exceed the maximum rate except for short periods. ARAG can not be held responsible for damage caused to persons, animals or things from the incorrect or unintended use of Digiwolf or its parts.
SETUP OtHeR SettingS What follows applies to both operating modes of the flowmeter. Calibration Rate reading may not be correct due to different system configurations (tubes, valve, etc.). Therefore, we recommend to make a spray test; in case the measured value is different from the real one, perform an automatic calibration procedure or manually calculate flowrate constant.
SETUP 9.1.2 Manual calibration To set the flowrate constant manually, calculate and set the correct constant using the following formula: [amount measured by device] x [constant indicated on flowmeter body] [actually delivered quantity] 1) Access Manual calibration menu (Setup menu > Calibration > Man. calibration). Calibration In Calibration menu, selecting Manual calibration, under the item the cur- Auto calibration...
SETUP Display Adjust display brightness and contrast. Access display menu (Setup menu > Display). Brightness and contrast adjustment is done in the same way. Display Brightness Under the selected item, the currently set value will be displayed. Contrast Press OK key to access modification of the selected item. 1) Set the value using the key.
SETUP 9.4.2 Units of measurement Set units of measurement for flowrate values and volume read by the device. 9.4.2.1 Rate units of measurement Access instant rate units of measurement menu (Setup menu > Options > Units of measurem. > Flowrate). Units of measurem.
SETUP Test In this menu is it possible to see some information and run a device operation test: - Firmware version: The display shows the firmware version installed on the device. - Sensor frequency: In the presence of flow passage, the display shows in real time the frequency of the signal from the sensor reading the flowrate.
MAINTENANCE MaintenanCe 10.1 Notes on maintenance - At the end of each treatment, run clean water through the tubes. - Clean the tank filling system pipe with a special detergent on a regular basis. - Clean (and if necessary, replace) the flowmeter paddle on a regular basis (page 19, chap 10.2) - Do not use metal or abrasive objects to clean the paddle.
1) Remove the fork from the ring nut using a screwdriver. 2) Remove the ring nut. - OR replacement: Replace the ORs (Code G10051V - ARAG spare parts catalogue). 3) Refit the sensor housing block ensuring that the fork is correctly inserted in the ring nut.
