Mounting / Commissioning:
Install the injection valve using a saddle clamp if necessary
in
the pipe section between
the circulation pump and the filter
inlet.
(See diagram).
Caution:
Place the point of injection as far as possible away from the
sand filter (
as close as possible to the circulation pump outlet
)
in order to allow the flocculating agent to build up the flakes.
If a measurement, control and metering system is installed
make sure to inject the liquid flocculant after the sample water
extraction point.
Connect the pressure side of the pump (right hand) with the
injection valve by using the provided hose 6 x 4 mm. Connect
the hose to the supplied suction lance on the suction side of the
Flockmatic (left hand).
Make sure all hose connections are fitting tightly!

7 - Injection before circulation pump (recommended if counter
pressure is higher than 0.8 bar)
PLEASE NOTE:
Sample water extraction must be before
injection of liquid flocking agent!

Maintenance
Some parts of the Flockmatic are subject to wear due to
chemical and mechanical stress. Thus regular inspection is
required for safe, long-term operation. Regular preventive
maintenance of the system protects against unscheduled
interruptions of operation.
5.1
14-day maintentance
Visual inspection of all dosing lines and the dosing hose
for leaks, replace if necessary
5.2
Yearly maintenance
inspection of all dosing lines, replace if necessary
Replacement of the hose of the dosing pump
5.3
Cleaning
Clean the surfaces of the device with a soft lint-free cloth as
needed. To do this only use a little water, if necessary
IMPORTANT NOTE
Do not use aggressive cleaners
5.4
Hose replacement
NOTE
Never grease the hose!
NOTE
Only use original spare pump hoses!
DANGER!
Danger due to chemicals
When pulling off the pump hose, corrosive
product residues can escape.
Possible consequence: Serious health
impairment (acid burns) and damage to
material assets
Always empty the pump hose and supply
lines first.
If necessary wear protective goggles and
protective gloves and protect the
surroundings against escaping product
residues with a cloth.
DANGER!
Danger due to rotating parts
The rotor of the dosing pump can start-up
abruptly.
Possible consequence: Danger of crushing
for fingers!
Ensure that the dosing pump remains
disconnected from the operating voltage while
replacing the hose (unplug the mains plug)!
The hose of the dosing pump is replaced without dismounting
the rotor.
Remove the emptied suction and pressure hoses from the
hose holder. To do this open the blue clamping screws.
Take the transparent cover 1 off of the pump.
Take off the blue cover 2 of the rotor.
Turn rotor 3 in such a manner that the flat side points to
the left and is vertical.
Pull the hose holder 4 out of its holder and lift it on the left
side.
