Pump 150l/min, AG-tronik electric regulation

CONNECTION FOR MEASURING FLOW RATE OF PUMP
The flow meter for the pump can be connected to the return line of the pressure regulator. To do this,
remove the hose fitting and replace it with another fitting to connect the flow meter with the tank. The
flow meter for the pump can also be connected to the pump (by unscrewing the pressure line).
18.4
CONNECTION FOR PRESSURE MEASURING
The connection for the control manometer has a R ¼” thread, which can be found at the upper side of
the control valve on the pressure regulator. To connect the manometer, unscrew the threaded cap and
screw the manometer into the thread.
18.5
MEASURING FLOW RATE OF NOZZLE
To measure the liquid flow rate through the nozzle, you will need a piece of soft flexible hose with an
inner diameter of 25 mm or 1” and an appropriate container (it is recommended to use a measuring
cylinder). Simply put the hose on the nozzle and measure the liquid flow rate by catching the liquid of
individual nozzles into the measuring cylinder. You will also need a stopwatch or a wristwatch. The
measurement time is one minute. If you have performed the measurement in less than one minute,
calculate the liquid flow rate to one minute.
If the liquid flow rate of a nozzle at a specific pressure exceeds the table values for more than 10%
than the nozzle insert is worn and needs to be replaced.

SPRAYER DISPOSAL
Once the spraying appliance cannot be used anymore, you will have to clean it completely, take it
apart and sort the individual components of the sprayer by material. The components must be handed
over to an organisation which deals with waste materials. The reservoir and other plastic parts of the
sprayer can be recycled or burned in special incineration sites. The metal parts can be sorted out as
scrap metal. Consider the local legislation for waste materials.
