1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 KMS MF Series KMS MF is designed for low/middle dosing of chemicals.

The pump has different working modes: Constant, Divide, Multiply, ppm, perc, mlq, batch, volt, mA.

KMS MF has got:

- STAND-BY input

- SEFL (flow sensor) input

- LEVEL input

- ALARM contact output.

Flow rate is determined by the stroke length and by the stroke speed. The stroke length is adjustable from 0 to
100% using the stroke length adjustment knob. However dosing accuracy is guarantee within an adjustment
range from 30% to 100%.

All control and setup parameters are available through a digital keyboard and they are displayed on a LCD backlit display.

✎

Note: some functions described into this manual may need accessories not included into the

pump packaging.

1.2 KMSA MF Series KMSA MF is the KMS MF version with self-venting pump head.

Self-venting pump head must be used when using chemicals that produce gas (i.e. hydrogen peroxide, ammonium,
sodium hypoclorite at particular conditions).

For connections ⎘ “Self-Venting pump head installation”.

1.3 KMS AC MF Series KMS AC MF is the KMS MF version with double supply: compressed air and power supply. Compressed air
without lubrifiant and/or condensed water. Air supply pressure range must be from 6 to 10 bar.

For connections ⎘ p. 5.

Pump can work in differents ways:

MODE WORKING MODES

CONSTANT

Pump doses at a constant rate set in “SPH” (strokes for hour), “SPM” (strokes for minute) or
“LPH” (litres per hour) parameters set during program session.

DIVIDE

External pulses from a water meter are divided by a value set during program session. The pump
doses with a rate determined by this parameter.

MULTIPLY

External pulses from a water meter are multiplied by a value set during program session. The
pump doses with a rate determined by this parameter.

PPM

Dosing rate is determined by pulses from a water meter on the base of set PPM, chemical
product concentration (%) and quantity for each single stroke set during program session.

PERC

Dosing rate is determined by pulses from a water meter on the base of set PERC (%), chemical
product concentration (%) and quantity for each single stroke set during program session.

MLQ

Dosing rate is determined by pulses from a water meter on the base of set MLQ (milliliters
per quintal), chemical product concentration (%) and quantity for each single stroke set during
program session.

BATCH Signal from an external contact starts the pump to dose the set quantity.

VOLT

Voltage from an external device drives the pump that doses proportionally using a minimum
and maximum of strokes for minute set during program session (0–10 VDC).

mA

Current from an external device drives the pump that doses proportionally using a minimum
and maximum of strokes for minute set during program session.

✎ In MULTIPLY, DIVIDE, PPM, PERC, MLQ working modes, the pump, connected to a pulse emitter water

meter, shows the instant flow.

Pulses Timeout (only for “Multiply” working mode and “PPM”, “PERC” and
“MLQ” working mode when the result is a multiplication).

When the pump receives a pulse from the water meter it starts the dosing
activity through an amount of time (from the first pulse to the following one).
At the beginning the pump doesn’t know the time lapse between the first and
the second pulse. So it’ll dose the product in the fastest way. From the second
pulse, the pump will dose the product correctly.

This function set the maximum time between a pulse and the following one.
Once that this time is exceeded the pump will reinitialize the dosing activity as
the first time that a pulse has been received.

Default value is 120 seconds.
To set “Timeout” function, between the minimum (1 sec.) and the maximum
(999 sec.), proceed as follow:

- Use “UP” key to increase the blinking “_” digit.
Enter number of pulses that pump must receive to
stop or not the pump.
