GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES
Operating, installing, or maintaining the unit in any way that is not covered in this manual could cause
death, serious personal injury, or damage to the equipment.
This manual use the following safety message icon:
Danger!
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
Warning!
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Important - A practice not related to personal injury or additional information.

⎘
PURPOSE OF USE AND SAFETY
METERING PUMP IS INTENDED FOR CHEMICAL DOSING.
Do not use in explosive area (EX).
Do not use with flammable chemicals.
Do not use with radioactive chemicals.
Use after a proper installation.
Use the pump in accordance with the data and specifications printed on the label.
Do not modify or use in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of the operating manual.
Keep the pump protected from sun and water. Avoid water splashes.
In emergencies the pump should be switched off immediately. Disconnect the power
cable from the power supply.
When using pump with aggressive chemicals observe the regulations concerning the
transport and storage of aggressive fluids.
When installing always observe national regulations.
Manufacturer is not liable for any unauthorized use or misuse of this product that may
cause injury, damage to persons or materials.
Pump must be accessible at all times for both operating and servicing. Access must
not be obstructed in any way.
Feeder should be interlocked with a no-flow protection device.
Pump and accessories must be serviced and repaired by qualified and authorized
personnel only.
Before any operation:
• always read chemical Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS);
• always wear protective clothing;
• always discharge the liquid end before servicing the pump.
• empty and rinse the liquid end before work on a pump which has been used with
hazardous or unknown chemicals.
•
This equipment requires regular maintenance to ensure potability requirements of the
water and maintenance of improvements as declared by the manufaturer.
Feeder should be interlocked with a no-flow protection device to automatically
shut-off the pumps when there is no flow!
Adequate measures shall be taken to prevent cross connection of chemicals!
Chemical feeding must be stopped during backwash cycles and periods of noflow as
these conditions may introduce the potential for chemical overdosing. Not doing so
may result in elevated chemical concentrations and hazerdous gas introduction into
the pool or spa.

DESCRIPTION
K PLUS
NSF/ANSI 61
K CO PLUS
NSF/ANSI 61
K CL PLUS
K PLUS is a constant or proportional dosing pump with level control for chemical feeding into water.
In Constant dosing mode pump doses a constant quantity regularly as configured by the user.
In Proportional dosing mode pump doses a quantity proportionally to an input signal, digital (voltage
free contact) or current (mA).
Working modes available:
• constant
• constant with 1-10 pulses divider
• multiplier with 1-10 pulses divider
• divider with 1-10 pulses divider
• divider with 1-100 pulses divider
• divider with 1-1000 pulses divider
• mA current signal (0/4 mA = 0 pulses: 20mA = max pulses)
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%.
K CO PLUS works in constant mode.
The pump can be set to work in
• constant
• constant with 1-10 speed reducer.
K CL PLUS works in constant mode and has got level control.
NSF/ANSI 61
Self venting:
KA PLUS
NSF/ANSI 61

The pump can be set to work in
• constant
• constant with 1-10 speed reducer.
KA is the K 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”.

- in a safety place and fixed to the table / wall to avoid vibration problems;
- in an easy accessible place;
- in horizontal position.
Requirements for product positioning
10
Use only hoses compatibles with product to dose.
See “Chemical compatibility table” page 31.
If dosing product is not listed please consult full compatibility table or contact
chemical’s manufacturer.
REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCT POSITIONING
Only use fasteners of the proper size and material.

Foot filter / Level
probe
(included only in
some models)
Level probe is assembled with a foot filter that avoid sediments priming probles.
Install level probe on the bottom of the tank.
Connect BNC level probe to the pump BNC input.
Warning: If there is a mixer installed into tank, install a suction lance instead of
