3 REQUIREMENTS

Water Supply

A back flow preventer is required in the water supply line. A water filter assembly with back flow preventer
is provided. Consult local inspector to insure minimum back flow protection is maintained.

Range 25 to 80 psi, 1.6 to 5.5 bar, a pressure booster pump is required if water pressure drops below 25 psi
at any time during operation.

1.3gpm, 4.5 liters per minute is the minimum water flow for proper activation.

33° to 100°F, 1° to 38°C is the operating range required.

Location and Chemicals

Place the unit and supply drums out of direct sunlight and accessible for chemical replenishment. We
recommend a dry room located close to the FutureCow ChemMix XV. DO NOT place the ChemMix XV
in the elements. Keep equipment and solution under cover at all times. DO NOT cross contaminate, this
will lead to inaccurate readings. When changing out the solution barrels always use proper eye and skin
protection. Gloves and goggles should be worn when handling the solution. See SDS for proper protection
guidelines.

Warning:

This unit has been approved for use with FutureCow solution and FutureCow parts ONLY. Use of
any other chemical products or replacement parts voids the warranties, and negates any
responsibility FutureCow may assume with regard to product support.

Consult FutureCow product SDS for safety instructions and safety equipment requirements.
The activator is an acid product. Consult the product SDS for safety instructions and safety

equipment requirements.

4 SETUP

The ChemMix XV is shipped dialed to the correct chemical settings, you must turn on the valve with the
desired ppm after full set up is complete to get chemical flow. The preset ppm is 400, 600, 800 or 1000.
Based on the facility needs the dairy can open the valves necessary to achieve their desired ppm
requirements.

The location for the ChemMix XV should be one that is out of the elements and accessible to replace the
chemical when necessary. The chemical levels in the supply drums must never be higher than the venturi
intake points. If the supply drums are elevated by a secondary containment system, the unit must be raised
to an equal height or placed on a secondary containment system as well. This will prevent siphoning of
chemicals into the solution tank.

Connecting the unit to a water supply

is accomplished by attaching the supplied

water filter assembly to the

water inlet

and attaching to a potable water source. The unit must be installed in compliance with all local

plumbing codes.

Care must be taken during the installation process to

keep pipe and thread sealing

preparations

to a minimum. Introduction of foreign

materials into

the unit can cause a malfunction of the

valves and venturi.

**Chemical levels should never

be above this line**
