Installation Procedures
1. Tools you will need: drill and drill bit, Phillips screw driver, needle nose pliers, wire cutters, or
something similar to cut tubing and cable ties.
2. To begin the installation of the DoseTech DMS, remove all of the accessories from the included
accessory kit.
3. Remove the faceplate from the DoseTech DMS by removing the screw and pushing up. Attach
the detergent suction tube to the pump as shown in Fig. 1. Use a black nylon clamp to secure
the tube. Replace the faceplate.
4. If you have the time-based option, connect the dispenser discharge tube to the discharge
squeeze tube as shown in Fig 2. Tip: If you soak the end of the tube in hot water for 30 seconds,
it will slide on with less resistance. Use a black nylon clamp to secure the tube.
5. If you have the flow meter option, connect the dispenser discharge tube to the flow meter as
shown in Fig. 3. Use a black nylon clamp to secure the tube. Note: Before connecting the dispenser
discharge tube to the flow meter, run the tube through the black nylon clamp so that it will be
easier to clamp after the tube has been connected to the flow meter. Tip: If you soak the end of
the tube in hot water for 30 seconds, it will slide on with less resistance.
6. Select a place to mount the dispenser. Ensure that it will be mounted within 6’ (1.8m) of a 115
VAC outlet. It is important to keep the cord above the sink level. It is not recommended to use
an extension cord. Verify the dispenser will be mounted within 4’ (1.2m) above the floor, and
no more than 10’ (3m) total distance from the detergent. Note: It is important to mount the
dispenser on a hard, flat surface, that is level. See Fig. 4.
7. Cut out the template on page 22 for mounting the dispenser. Place the template against the
surface that the dispenser will be mounted to. Use the horizontal lines on the template to make
sure the template is level. Tape the template to the wall to secure it in place. Pierce the
template with a sharp pencil to mark where the anchors and screws will go. Remove the
template and pre-drill the holes for the anchors. Insert the anchors and the top two screws.
Make sure to leave enough space between the anchors and the head of the tightened screws
for the key holes on the dispenser to fit. Mount the dispenser by aligning the key holes with the
screws and dropping the dispenser in place. Make sure not to put too much pressure on the
dispenser. Secure the dispenser with the bottom two screws.
8. Route the detergent suction tube to the detergent container. Trim the detergent suction tube
to the proper length after verifying that there is enough tube to reach to the bottom of the
detergent container.
9. Drill or cut a 3/8” hole into the bottle cap of the detergent container and insert the detergent
suction tube through the hole. Slide the ceramic tube weight and umbrella foot valve onto the
detergent suction tube. See Fig 5. Place the cap on the detergent. Push the suction tube to the
bottom of the container. Be sure there are no kinks in the tube or obstructions that would
impede the flow of detergent to the pump.
.
10. Use the cable tie mounts and cable ties to secure the detergent suction tube to
the wall that leads to the dispensing unit. Trim the excess plastic from the cable
ties once the detergent suction tube has been secured. See Fig. 6.
