Notes for the user
• Repeated switching 'on' and 'off':
Wait at least for 5 seconds before you switch the unit repeatedly 'on' or 'off' at the main switch.
• Observation of the environmental conditions:
In order to guarantee a reliable operation, the unit must only be used under the environmental conditions described
in the technical data. Protect the controller against excessive humidity, condensation and water-splash.
• Safety seal:
The original seals attached during manufacture (e.g. EPROM labels) must not be broken, otherwise all warranty
rights are lost.
• Malfunction / repair of defective units:
The repair of a defective unit is only possible when the unit is dismantled and returned to us with a description of the
fault.This in no way affects the guarantee rights. In addition, please inform your supplier of the reagent type used and
of the quality of treated water measured.
Before you return the unit for repair, remove the reagent bottle and ensure that the measuring chamber is flushed out
and empty.
• Electrical load capacity
The maximum electrical load capacity of the relay outputs and the total power rating must not be exceeded.
• Operate the Testomat® ECO strictly in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
• Environmental protection regulations
Please observe the environmental protection regulations and collect any unused reagent for safe disposal in
accordance with local statutory requirements.
Operational Checks
Careful handling of the unit increases both the operational reliability and the service life!
Therefore the following visual inspection should be carried out at regular intervals.
• Are the hose connections with the dosing pump free of leaks?
• Is there any air inside the dosing hoses?
• Are all the water connections free of leaks?
• Are the doors of the unit properly closed?
• Is the unit unduly contaminated with dirt?
Maintenance and servicing notes
(see page 17)
Safety notes
• The unit must be installed and operated in compliance with the relevant standards (e. g. DIN, VDE, UVV).
• Some functions (e. g. the manual analysis) allow the direct manipulation of the installation without locking or
monitoring. These functions may only be used by trained staff and for this reason they are only accessible after a
pass word has been entered.
• If you observe the unit malfunctioning, switch it off immediately. Then shut off the water supply and contact your
supplier.
• Do not attempt to repair the unit yourself (loss of warranty rights); instead always get in touch with the authorised
service staff. This is the only way a reliable and safe operation of the unit can be ensured.
• After a protective circuit (fuse) has tripped, first of all, attempt to correct the cause of the malfunctioning (e. g. replace
the solenoid valve) before reactivating the protective circuit. Frequent tripping is always due to a fault which, in
certain circumstances, may also cause damage to the unit.
• Observe the safety notes about working with reagents, chemicals and cleaning agents.
Ignoring these notes can result in damage to the unit as well as the installation and may result in a loss of
warranty rights.
