9. Connect the pressure hose to the injection valve using the con‐nector kit

The sample water should be free from air bubbles toensure reliable measurement and control.

1. Set a flow of 20 ... 60 l/h using the stopcock (read-off at the topedge of the float).

2. Check the hydraulic leak-tightness of the system (escaping liquid,continuous air bubbles in the in-line probe housing, ...)

ð Tighten the threaded connectors if necessary.

1.Have a collecting vessel at the ready

Open the sampling tap

2. If water flows out of the sampling tap, the system is not under nega‐tive pressure and is working correctly

If air is drawn in, this means that there is negativepressure in the system. In this case, throttle thevalve at the point at which the sample water pipeenters the filtration circuit - the pressure shouldnot exceed 1 bar.

3. Use the stopcock on the sample water drain to finely adjust thesystem

6.3.2 Sensors

Please refer to the operating instructions for the sensors.

1. Close the shut-off valves upstream and downstream of the in-lineprobe housing

2. Remove the transparent protective cap from the ball-shaped end ofthe pH sensor

3. Manually screw the pH sensors into separate threaded holes on thein-line probe housing. Then carefully tighten using an SW 17 open-ended spanner until the threaded connector is tight

4. Testing the sensors' hydraulic installation: Adjust the flow using theshut-off valve to 20... 60 l/h

ð Check whether the threaded connectors on the in-line probehousing are tight.

6.4 Electrical Installation

Ensure actuation of the metering pump via the controllerLock the controller via the circulating pump's potential-free contact. Do this in addition to the flow control.Purpose of this measure: Should the flow module's floatbecome stuck due to dirt, the system will be preventedfrom over-metering. Alternately you can also switch onand off the mains voltage for the metering pumps andthe circulating pump.

The controller is used to switch and provide the powersupply to the metering pumps alpha and Beta. Thesockets are already installed on the mounting plate.

1. Screw the orange-coloured SN6 plugs onto the sensors

2. With chlorine sensors: Screw the CAN plugs onto the chlorine sen‐sors

3. With level switches: Plug the plug of the level sensor cable into the[Level] socket on the metering pump

7.2 Priming and bleeding (with an alpha or Beta pump)


Measure: The bleed valve must be equipped with atransparent PVC hose (6 x 4 mm). The PVC hose mustbe connected to the respective chemical storage tank sothat the leaking chemicals can flow back into the chem‐ical storage tank during the bleeding process.

DF2a and DF4a pumpsPriming and bleeding is not required with the self-primingDF2a and DF4a pumps.

1. Slightly open the bleed valve of the alpha or Beta metering pump

2.Stroke length for the Beta pumpIf possible, always operate the Beta pump with100% stroke length. Only reduce the stroke lengthto values between 100% ... 30% if overdosing fre‐quently occurs (overshooting the measuredvalues).

Note the stroke length of the metering pump and set it to a strokelength of 100% (only with the Beta pump)

3. Start the controller using the [START/STOP] key.

4. Allow the metering pump to run until the feed chemical leaks fromthe bleed valve.

5. Close the metering pump bleed valve.

6. If required, re-adjust the stroke length of the Beta pump to the orig‐inal value.

Re-start the control process: change to the continuousdisplay using the Change key and start the controllerusing the START/STOP key

7.3 Calibration

Necessity for calibrating the zero pointCalibration of the zero point is not generally necessary.A calibration of the zero point is only necessary if thesensor is operated at the lower limit of the measuringrange or if the 0.5 ppm sensor version is used.

Although various calibration methods are possible with the controller fitted,when used as a swimming pool controller, we generally recommend 2-point calibration of the pH sensor and calibration of the slope with thechlorine sensor.

Prime the feed chemical as follows (foralpha and Beta pumps)

Start Up

28

You have to regularly calibrate the pH sensor duringoperation. That means: 24 hours after initial calibrationand then weekly thereafter.Please take into account any deviating national regula‐tions.Only calibrate the pH sensor with the quality buffer solu‐tions pH 7 and pH 4.




There must be a chlorine concentration of approx. 0.5 mg/l in the pool tobe able to calibrate the sensors.

Example (without depletion losses): A swimming pool contains 60 m3, byway of example. To obtain a chlorine concentration of 0.5 mg/l in thisswimming pool, approx. 0.20 litres of 12% sodium-calcium hypochlorite(density (ρ) 1.22 ± 0.02) are required.

Meter in the required quantity of sodium-calcium hypochlorite intothe filtration circuit, either using the chlorine metering pump orevenly distribute the quantity of sodium-calcium hypochloriteneeded into the swimming pool using a measuring cup

ð An even concentration can be expected once the reaction timehas elapsed:

Reaction time [h] = pool contents [m3] / circulation capacity[m3/h]

7.3.1 Chlorine calibration

Chlorine must be continuously present in the samplewater (approx 0.5 mg/l) for the whole period. Otherwisethe measuring system cannot calibrate.

only measure with pH correction! If you calibratedwithout pH correction, then you may only measurewithout pH correction

– Following the replacement of a sensor membranecap or electrolyte, the slope has to be calibrated

– The slope has to be calibrated at regular intervals toensure the optimal operation of the sensor. Cali‐brating the sensor every 3-4 weeks suffices withswimming pool or potable water

– Avoid air bubbles in the measured water. Air bub‐bles, which adhere to the membrane of the sensor,can result in too low a reading and thus lead to over-metering.
