Adjusting the DC PipeFeeder anti-spill device
7. The DC version of the PipeFeeder (anti-spill) should be correctly
adjusted before this is put into service. Adjustment is performed
as follows:
Ensure that the PipeFeeder is full of feed than allow the
motor to rotate once (give signal).
For the settings of AC with DosPrint Pipefeeders, check the DosPrint man-
ual. (Art.nr. 1825)
Please note! Make sure to first switch off the electric
power to the control unit before the next step.
Remove the lid from the PipeFeeder. Remove the motor plate by unscrew-
ing 4 bolts.
Remove the motor with motor plate and connector from the shaft.
Turn the star on top of the drive shaft. Make sure that the arrow on the star is
level with the recess on top of the stainless steel pipe.
Push the motor with motor plate and connector back onto the drive axis.
Mount these by screwing the 4 bolts tight again.(pic.3)
Fit the lid back onto the PipeFeeder.
Switch the electronic power back on.
Fill the PipeFeeder and allow to rotate once for control (give signal).
This adjustment should be applied in both the milking stall feeding installation, in parlour,
and in the feeding box, out of parlour.
8.
When installation is not completely correct the plastic part will be able to rotate
freely with respect to the stainless steel tube. When the plastic part is rotated in
case of the DC version the adjusting procedure should be followed again (step 7).
In addition it must be ensured that after mounting or twisting of the plastic part,
the motor is correctly placed onto the axis
Important!
Only when the motor is correctly adjusted can Hanskamp Agro
Tech guarantee that the PipeFeeder is Anti-spill.
Make sure that all the wires are neatly concealed out of reach of
animals. Otherwise hazardous situations can emerge.
Before you run the PipeFeeder, always fit the lid which covers the
motor carefully. Otherwise hazardous situations can emerge
(pic. 4).
9. The PipeFeeder has fully electrical operation. The motor drives the axis that turns a
scoop mechanism at the bottom of the stainless steel pipe (Ø129 x 2mm). This mech-
anism delivers the feed. If a switch is used to control several dosing units at the same
time, such asl on each side of the parlour (milking stall feeding), then several Pipe-
Feeder dosing units can be connected to a single feeding line. Please note the maxi-
mum permissible current, which is stated on the power supply (art.nr. 2812 or 2813
PowerUnit), won’t be exceeded.
