Product description 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION DOSmart AC is a series of dosing pumps with a step motor and advanced control functions to automate This series of pumps is characterized by high precision, extensive regulation (1:3000) and high suction up to 16 bar. The choice of the correct head material between PP, PVDF and stainless steel allows the dosing of any commonly used chemical in the water treatment, chemical, food and agriculture industries.
The original packaging is designed to allow the equipment to be transported and stored without damage, provided this takes place in dry, ventilated spaces away from heat sources. The packing contains: - DOSmart AC dosing pump - Instruction manual - Connection accessories for 4x6, 6x8, 6x12, 10x12 conduit...
Installation 4 INSTALLATION 4.1 GENERAL It should be installed in a place protected from water, away from heat sources and with renovation of air. Fix the pump on a rigid horizontal surface. Provide enough space to comfortably perform basic maintenance and facilitate installation and removal. Fix the pump to the chosen flat surface using 4 screws (See drawing).

The pulse output isolator allows any device to be securely connected to a pulse output. The pulse output is a voltage free output. The isolator is not necessary when the output is connected to a 38 39 40 41 pulse input of another DOSmart AC.
Installation 5 OPERATION The electric motor transmits power via a reducer, consisting of a pinion (A) and an eccentric crown (B) that drives a connecting cam (C) onto which the diaphragm (D) is screwed. Spring (F) is compressed during the suction cycle, thus storing energy which is released during the discharge cycle. By varying the speed of the motor and depending on the operating mode selected in the Control Unit, the equipment will regulate the flow to the desired value with a maximum variation of 1:3000.

Installation 5.2 CONFIGURATION 5.2.1 Pump calibration The pump calibration function allows the pump flow to be calibrated in real working conditions via a product suction test of a given duration. For a correct calibration, a test duration of at least 60 seconds must be entered.
Page 25
Installation 5.2.2.1 Low pulsation standard The Standard ST mode is the normal operating mode where the doser has symmetrical behaviour during suction and discharge of the product while working at maximum capacity. As the flow rate is reduced, the discharge cycle is extended, keeping the suction duration constant. 100% operation 50% operation DOSING MODE...

Installation Auto: If the pump has a pressure sensor connected, by selecting this option the pump will keep the flow unchanged even if the working pressure changes. Manual (MAN): If the pump does not have a pressure sensor, but the working pressure is constant, the pressure value can be entered manually so that the pump adjusts to the nominal flow value.

Installation 5.2.3.3 Flowmeter For a correct water flow reading, the flowmeter constant (volume/pulse or pulses/volume) must be entered. Previously select the type of flowmeter for low or high frequency. Low frequency: for water meters with low frequency outputs (0.005 Hz to 30 Hz). The constant is expressed in volume/pulse (litres/pulse;...

Installation 6 START-UP AND REGULATION FIXING: Check that the pump is properly secured HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT CHECK: Check that all valves are open, and that the priming and relief valve outlets are diverting the liquid to a container PUMP CHECK: Make a visual/auditory check of the correct operation of the pump. PRIMING: To facilitate pump priming, open the priming valve.
Maintenance Before any maintenance operation check: The pump is stopped and disconnected from the power supply . There is no pressure inside the head or in the discharge pipe. It is recommended to empty the head before opening it. Maintenance personnel should use the appropriate means of protection for handling the liquid being dosed.
