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.

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.

WIRING
Preliminary
checks
THE ELECTRICAL WIRINGS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY AUTHORIZED AND
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL REGULATIONS.
Before to proceed, verify the following steps:
1. Verify the data on nameplate.
Make sure that the electrical data on the nameplate of the motor corresponds to the
electrical supply.
2. Verify the grounded power outlet.
The pump must be plugged to a grounded power outlet. Pump must be connected to a
motor protection switch (Residual Current Circuit Breaker - MCCB).
3. Install a relay switch. Do not install it in parallel with heavy inductance load (for
example: engines). See fig. 10.
Fig. 10. Electrical installation.
P - Dosing pump
R - Relay
I - Switch or safety device
E - Electrovalve or inductance load

PRIMING
Warnings
Manual priming
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.
Never operate any pumping system with a blocked suction and discharge.
You must take all necessary measures to avoid this condition.
SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Use safety equipment according to the company regulations. Use this safety
equipment within the work area:
• Helmet
• Safety goggles (with side shields)
• Protective shoes
• Protective gloves
• Gas mask
To prime the pump (only in CONSTANT working mode):
1. perform al pipings (delivery, suction and venting hose);
2. turn completely the venting knob to open discharge valve;
3. set STROKE LENGTH KNOB on 100% (for viscous liquids set between 50 and 70%);
4. supply the pump.
5. When the product will start to flow into venting hose, close the discharge valve turning the
knob (not for self-venting model).
Automatic
priming
18
For viscous liquids, to facilitate priming: insert a 20 cc syringe on venting pipe and suck;
When syringe is almost full close the discharge valve turning the knob..
1. Turn OFF the pump.
2. Keep pressed OFF key for 4 seconds.
3. Pump primes for 30 seconds.
4. Turn ON the pump.
The pump returns to the last working mode.

COMPATIBILITY TABLE
Chemical
compatibility
table
Solenoid driven metering pumps are widely used to dose chemical fluids and it is important that the
most suitable material in contact with fluid is selected for each application. This compatibility table serves
as a useful help in this respect. All the informations in this list are verified periodically and believed to
be correct on the date of issuance. All the informations in this list are based on manufacturer’s data
and its own experience but since the resistance of any material depends by several factors this list is
