3. Machine description The MINISUMO II range of lubrication pumps are particularly suited for dual-line and progressive systems and can adapt to many needs without mechanical modifications, even after installation. In fact, be choosing a set of components that are perfectly compatible with one another and easy to assemble, you can vary the pressure, the quantity of lubricant distributed, the type of lubricant or the type of distribution.
ATTENTION DO NOT use lubricants that are aggressive to NBR gaskets. If you are unsure, contact the DropsA SpA technical office for a detailed list of recommended oils.
Continuous sound pressure level < 70 dB(A) Note: The specifications refer to an operating temperature of + +20°C (+ +68°F) With 24V cc motor If a different product is used, you must ask DropsA S.p.A. if it is suitable for use...

4. Installation 4.1 Receipt and checking the content Upon receiving the pump, you must ensure that the packaging is intact or whether there are clear signs of damage due to transport or storage conditions. If everything is intact, proceed with unpacking and checking the pump. Otherwise, if damage to the packaging is found, the transport agent and the manufacturer must be notified immediately.
4.4 Storage Empty the pump of any oil or grease and close the intake and outlet with the specific protection. The pumps must be stored in their own packaging and kept in covered, dry, protected places that are not exposed to direct sunlight and at a temperature that falls within the range indicated on the technical specifications table.
4.7 Electrical connection DANGER The connection to the ground must be made only by an electrical maintenance technician. The pump must be installed in an industrial environment in compliance with prevailing law. In order to prevent dangers of electrocution due to direct or indirect contact with the live parts, the electrical power supply line must be adequately protected with a specific breaker switch with 0.03 Ampere tripping threshold and max tripping time of 1 second.
DANGER Never ignore health hazards and always follow sanitary regulations. Before using the MINISUMO II pump, some preliminary checks must be carried out: Check the integrity of the pump. Ensure that the pump is at operating temperature and that the piping is free of any air bubbles.
5.3 Starting the pump 1. Press the start button on the machine or system where the pump is connected. 2. Ensure that the pump starts; rotation of the motor, dispensing of the grease and pressurised piping indicate that the pump is actually working. 3.
6. Adjustments 6.1 Adjustment/calibration of the level probe 6.1.1 Calibration of the laser Level probe 0295131, 24Vdc Out NO and NC (1 threshold) 1. Reference notch. 2. Yellow LED: lights when the set value is reached (outlet=ON). 3. Locking ring nut. 4.
use only tools suitable for the job and original replacement parts. In the event of doubts and/or irresolvable problems, do not search for the fault by disassembling parts of the machine, but rather contact the DropsA S.p.A. Technical Office. 7.2 Maintenance operations table...
7.2.4 Replacing pumping elements ATTENTION Before replacing the pumping element, empty the reservoir in order to avoid lubricant spills. 1) Using an appropriate wrench, remove the pumping element being replaced; 2) Replace the pumping element; 3) Tighten to a torque of 200 Nm.
If, after having consulted the diagnostics table, you are unable to solve the problem, do not search the failure by removing parts of the machine. Please contact the DropsA Technical Department and report the detected failures, with a detailed description.
