FRANCO srl Manual of use and maintenance UCP-fly
15
Adjust the water flow with the proper flow regulator in order to obtain a nebulization without
droplets dragged by the spinning disk.
Warning
: an excessive quantity of water increase the size of the droplets
The pump must not operate without water.
The temperature of the liquid used must not exceed 35°C.
3.3 Starting
The machine starts automatically when the electrical power is switched on
The pump circulates the water bringing it to the rotating disk that, spinning at 2.820 rpm, atomize the water
through the use of small “teeth”.
3.4 Setting
It is possible to
vary the amount of atomized water adjusting the valve that regulates the spinning disk’s water
supply (Fig. 3.1).
The machine can nebulize from 15 to 55 lt/h (the quantity of atomized water affects the quality of the fog).
3.5 Water drain
The machine comes with a cap placed on the bottom of the storage tank. It is possible to empty the tank by
removing the cap.
To do this, act on the stopping ring pressing it gently (the operation can be facilitated by using a no. 10 spanner)
and remove the cap.
4 - MAINTENANCE
Before undertaking any maintenance,
disconnect the device from the electricity and water supply!
Periodically check that the amount of water reaching the slinger is correct, if necessary adjust the flow regulator.
Keep the disks, the tank and the internal components clean, and prevent dirt the accumulation on the lid.
4.1 Cleaning the disk
Keep the disk clean to avoid the formation of calcareous deposits or accumulation of dirt, which could cause an
increase in vibration or coarse nebulization.
To clean the rotating disk, simply use a soft damp cloth and a non-toxic and solvent free detergent, and be
careful to rub without excessive pressure.
Do not use solvents.
The fixed disk should be cleaned with a small brush with stiff bristles, rub the teeth, being careful not to damage
them.
Any eventual limescale can be removed with muriatic acid diluted with water.
4.2 Cleaning the tank
Periodically clean the water tank.
To access it, unscrew the two screws on the lid and pull gently, grasping the grip.
To ease the cleaning, it is possible to remove the float’s ball and the pump.
To remove the ball it is necessary to unscrew the plastic arm of the float (Fig. 4.1).
To remove the pump it is necessary to operate while holding with a no. 13 spanner the stop ring that blocks the
pump and pull gently the pump up to complete removal.
Once all these operations have been completed, it is possible to clean the interior of the tank with a cloth or a
sponge, rubbing gently on the walls.
Do not use solvents
.
It is necessary to periodically check the functioning and the cleanliness of the pump and the float.
Each 2-3 months clean the internal parts of the pump with warm water.
