4.- OPERATION The electric motor (B) transmits its power by means of a reducer, made up of a pinion (E) and a ring gear (F) solidary to an axis (I) and an eccentric (A) that alternatively pushes and draws a shaft ( C) threaded to a piston (D). As a spring is not necessary for the return of the piston (POSITIVE RETURN), the motor transmits all its power both to the injection and to the suction, saving energy, avoiding breackdowns, and ensuring a perfect and high precision dosing.
5.- INSTALLATION GENERALITIES To install this pump it is advisable to choose places protected from water, away from heat sources and with renovation of air. Place the pump vertically over a totally horizontal rigid surface to achieve a proper lubrication of all inner elements. Anticipate which will be the room you will need to comfortably do the basic maintenance and install/desinstall the pump.
THREE-PHASE CONNECTION (50/60 Hz) To work at 230 V we will plug the motor in triangle. Installing a protection. To work at 400 V it will be a star connection. Installing a protection. OVERLOAD PROTECTION 230 V 400 V 1,88 Amp 1,1 Amp SINGLE PHASE CONNECTION Install the correct motor protection (Overload protection).

6.- START UP AND REGULATION STAND: Check that the pump is properly installed in its stand. OIL: Take off re-filling lid and fill the pump with the provided oil: SAE 80 W 90 or equivalent. If the pump has several modules oil must be spread to all filling holes.
Page 17
PRIMING: To prime the pump easily, especially for not very important flows and we if do not have priming valve, we suggest to lower pressure up to the minimum injection point. If that is not possible, fill up the cylinder and the suction pipe with liquid.. OVER-PRESSURE PROTECTION: Adjust the safety valve over- pressure or relief to the wished pressure to protect the installation without exceeding the pump nominal pressure.
MAINTENANCE Before any maintenance operation we will check: That the pump is stopped and disconnected from the electric supply. There is no pressure neither inside the head nor in the impulsion pipe. It is advisable to empty the head before opening it. The staff in charge of the maintenance will use the adequate protection means in order to manipulate the dosed liquid.
