Distribution Manifold Hoses
The product delivery hose from each channel on the Main Panel runs to its own Distribution Manifold.
Then, from each distribution manifold, there is a hose that runs to each washer, and a hose that runs back to the Calibration
Vase (which should be mounted near the main panel). The Calibration Vase solenoid will always be the rightmost and the
washer solenoids numbering will always start at the left, as shown below. Some washers have two inputs, or you can “T” the
dosage hoses that come from each channel, at the washer.

Make sure there is sufficient air pressure, more
than 60 PSI or 4 bar, but not more than 120 psi
or 8 bar.
Both the air line coming into the main panel
regulator and the air line running to the
distribution manifold must be a 3/8” (12mm)
outside diameter plastic hose, and the fittings
are a “push-in” design with no tools required.
“Push twice” to get the hose past the sealing
O-ring and the grip ring.
The hose can be soft or hard plastic, but the
grip ring of the push-in fitting may not hold with
harder materials.
To remove a hose from these fittings, push the
external ring toward the fitting to release the
hose so it can be pulled out.
These fittings seal best when the hose goes
“straight in”, not pulled at an angle.
Once the main inlet is connected to the unit,
set
the regulator on the main panel to 60 PSI
or
4 bar.
