Water connection
1 Water connection
•
When connecting the automatic feeder, observe the national regulations about protection of
drinking water.
•
Inform the end user that the supplied water must be of drinking water quality.
NOTICE!
Please bear in mind that high calcium, iron and manganese concentrations can cause
premature wear of the components. In such cases it makes sense to install appropriate
filtration systems.
•
Use a separate water shutoff valve to supply water to the automatic feeder.
•
Make sure that the water pipe has a sufficiently large cross section. Determine the number
of points where water is simultaneously being extracted and adjust the cross section of the
water pipe accordingly.
•
Make sure the water pressure is constant. The water pressure must be at least 1 bar. The
maximum pressure must not exceed 6 bar. If the water pressure drops below 1 bar, you will
have to install a pressure increasing device.
•
Lay the discharge hose to flow into the gully.
