Design and Function
3Design and Function
Main components Operating panel
Power end
Liquid end
Operating Principle Chemical feed occurs as a result of pulsed deflections of the dosing diaphragm within the liquid
end, which causes pressure differentiation between the suction side, the liquid end cavity and the
discharge side. The pressure differentiation causes the suction and discharge self-acting valves
to open and close, resulting in chemical feed.
The dosing diaphragm is driven by an electromagnet, which is stimulated and controlled by a
microprocessor.
Pump Capacity The feed rate is determined by the stroke length and stroking rate.
The stroke length is adjustable between 0 % and 100 % using the stroke length adjustment knob.
However reproducibility is only technically practicable in the adjustment range of between 30 %
and 100 %.
Stroking rate is adjustable in 10 % steps between 0 % and 100 % using the multifunction switch.
This gives a higher rate of reproducible metering accuracy.
Operating Modes Operating modes are selected using the multifunction switch.
Three LED displays indicate operating and fault status.
Internal operating mode: ”Manual“:
Stroking rate is manually adjustable in 10 % steps via the multifunction switch.
”External“ operating mode:
Allows adjustment of individual strokes via the external operating mode terminal by means of
contact or semi-operating devices.
Functions ”Auxiliary Frequency“ function:
Enables activation of optionally selectable and programmable stroking rate, controlled via the
external operating mode terminal. This stroking rate overrides ”Manual“ and ”External“ operating
modes.
In the standard version the ”Auxiliary Frequency“ function is programmed to 100 % stroking rate.
”Pause“ function:
The external operating terminal can be used to operate a remote pump stop function.
”Stop“ function:
This function allows the pump to be deactivated without disconnecting from the power supply.
”Test“ function:
This function checks the priming function of the pump. The switch setting ”Test“ on the
multifunction switch is self-locking.
Self-degassing Self-degassing metering pumps are used in closed discharge lines to create suction and to direct
trapped air to bypass lines, and/or remove gas emitted by gaseous chemicals during operation,
independently of existing back pressure.
Installing a back pressure valve ensures precise chemical feed can be achieved, even when
operating under atmospheric pressure.
Options The float switch connector can be used to connect a two stage float switch.
There is also optionally available a relay terminal for an alarm indicating relay, and a switch output
which is synchronised to each stroke.

Removal of Packaging / Electrical Installation
5Removal of Packaging
Removal of packaging 왘 Retain the packaging. It can be used to return the pump in case of repair or for guarantee
purposes.
왘 Compare delivery note with contents of packaging.
왘 Check that the details given on the metering pump device label correspond with your ordering
details!
왘 Should you experience any problems, contact your ProMinent branch or supplier!
왘 Give the identity code and serial number, which you will find on the device label, in the event
of goods returns or when ordering replacement parts. This will ensure correct identification of
the pump type and material version.
Included in Delivery • Metering pump with mains cable
• Operating instructions manual with conformity declaration, with accessories if applicable
6Electrical Installation
WARNING
•WARNING – Risk of electric shock – This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor
and grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain
that it is connected only to a properly grounding-type receptacle.
• Observe the relevant national regulations when installing the pump outside Germany!
• Do not connect power supply to external terminals!
• Make sure that the power supply corresponds to the details on the device label!
When connecting in parallel with inductive consumers a separate switch contact,
e.g. relay or coutactor should be fitted!
CAUTION
• The electronic system of the pump can be destroyed if the pump is connected incorrectly!
When connecting the 5P universal control cable for external contact control, do not
connect the grey wire instead of the white one! At first, the pump functions without any
faults, however, the electronic system of the pump will be destroyed after approx.
10 million strokes!
• The universal signal cable, the external/contact cable and the liquid level monitoring
cable may not be less than 1.20 m. Cable recognition will otherwise be lost.
Mains connection The pump is connected via the fixed mains cable to the correct power supply.
ON/Off switching The pump should only be able to be disconnected from the power by
•removing the plug from the socket
• via the ”stop“ setting on the multifunction switch
•remote stop via an external cable (see 7.1).
Connecting in parallel If the pump is connected to the power in parallel with inductive consumers, e.g. (solenoid valve,
motor), they must be electrically isolated from these items to prevent damage from induction
voltages when switching off.
왘 Fit separate contacts, power supply via contacter relay or relay.
If this is not possible, then:
왘 Parallel connection via varistor (order number 710912) or an RC circuit
Stroke length adjustment knob The stroke length is continuously adjustable between 0 % and 100 % via the stroke length
adjustment knob. Reproducibility is only technically practicable in the adjustment range of
between 30 % and 100 % however.
Multifunction switch The multifunction switch (1e) is used to select the operating mode and to set the stroking rate.
The following operating modes are selected using the multifunction switch:
• Stop
• External
• Manual (to set stroking rate in 10 % steps)
•Test (priming suction function)
External operating terminal The ”terminal for external operating“ is a five channel connector. It is compatible with two and
four channel signal cables used previously. The ”auxiliary frequency“ function can be used only
with the five channel cable, however.

”Pause“ Function
The pump runs when
• There is no cable connected (e.g. pin 1 free)
• The cable is connected and the contact is earthed (pins 1 and 4 connected).
The pump does not run when
• The cable is connected and the contact is open (pins 1 and 4 not connected).
”External“ Operating Mode
A dosing stroke is triggered when a contact is made for a minimum of 20 ms with pin 2 (external)
and pin 4 (earth), and the ”pause“ input is at pin 4 (earth).
Operating Characteristic Variations: Changing from ”External“ to ”Manual“
®
The operation of the Beta
(when external cable is connected) takes two forms:
Identity code: ”control type“
• 0: no lock
”External“ and ”manual“ operating modes can be activated at any time. All pump functions
correspond to the texts on the multifunction switch and the pre set operating mode. The pump
operates in ”manual“ mode even when external cable is connected. This is the standard
version.
• 1: with lock
The ”external“ operating mode is only available when external cable is connected.
The ”manual“ function is only available when the cable is removed.
pump when changing from ”external“ to ”manual“ options
Altering External Frequency Function (Auxiliary Frequency)
This function switches the pump over to a pre-programmed frequency, as long as the correct
input is connected to pin 4 (reference potential) and the pump is not in ”pause“ or ”stop“ modes.
The ”auxiliary frequency“ function overrides a manually set operating frequency and also
”external“ operating mode.
If the ”auxiliary frequency“ function and the ”pause“ function are both active the pump stops. In
the standard version this function is programmed to 100 % stroking rate.

• Shorter intervals when subject to heavier usage (e.g. continuous operation).
Maintenance actions Standard liquid ends:
왘 Check the diaphragm for damage (see section 9).
왘 Check chemical seepage at vent hole.
왘 Check that the discharge tubing is connected firmly to the liquid end.
왘 Check that discharge and suction valves are firmly fixed.
왘 Check that the liquid end is generally watertight (especially vent hole! See fig. 13).
®
왘 Check for correct feed: run the Beta
왘 Check electrical connections for wear.
왘 Check that liquid end screws are fastened tightly (on coarse/fine bleeding versions, first
remove knob and cover.
Screw fastening torque: 4.5 to 5 Nm
NOTE
• For PP liquid end, check fastening torque every quarter!
Additionally, for liquid ends with coarse/fine bleed function and SEK type:
• Check that the bypass tubing is connected firmly to the liquid end
• Check that the bleed valve is firmly fixed in place
• Examine the discharge and bypass tubing for kinks
• Check that the coarse/fine bleed function is working correctly
run for a short period (press both arrow keys together).

Repairs
Cleaning the suction valve (PP, NP) for types 1000, 1005, 1605, 1601, 1602
A suction valve is designed almost similar to a pressure valve.
Take care however that:
• both valve inserts are actually identical,
• an additional spacer is found under the valve inserts,
• in the liquid end a shaped seal 1 is used instead of an O-ring,
• the flow direction of the suction connection is reversed as for the pressure connector.
Cleaning the discharge valve (PP, PC, NP) for types 0708, 1008, 0220, 0420, 0413, 0713, 0232
NOTE

anticlockwise turn of the liquid end (2) and top plate (4).
왘 Unscrew the diaphragm (3) completely from the drive spindle.
왘 Remove the top plate (4) from the housing (6).
왘 Check the condition of the safety diaphragm (5) and replace if necessary.
왘 Push the safety diaphragm (5) onto the drive axle until the outer edge is flush with the pump
housing (6) - do not push further!
왘 Screw the new diaphragm (3) carefully up to the stop on the drive axis – this must be exact to
ensure correct metering!
왘 Screw the diaphragm (3) tight once more.
왘 Position the top plate (4) on the pump housing (6).
CAUTION
• The leakage hole must point downwards when the pump is fully assembled (see fig. 13)
• Position the top plate correctly on the pump housing. Do not distort the top plate on the
pump housing, otherwise the safety diaphragm (5) will not fit.
왘 Lay the diaphragm (3) into the top plate (4).
왘 Hold the top plate and screw the diaphragm (3) in a clockwise direction until it is firmly in
position (you will feel the resistance of the return spring).
CAUTION
• Do not overtighten the diaphragm (particularly on type 1601).
• The top plate must remain in position to prevent the safety diaphragm (5) from distorting.
왘 Adjust the stroke to 100 %.
왘 Position the liquid end (2) with the screws (1) on the diaphragm (3) and the top plate (4) (the
priming connector must point downwards once the pump is fully assembled). Screw on screws
