To ensure reliable measuring and control, the sample water must be free from air bubbles.

1. Set a flow of 20 ... 60 l/h using the stopcock (read-off at the top edge of the float).

2. Check the hydraulic leak-tightness of the system (escaping liquid, continuous air bubbles in the in-line probe housing, ...)

Tighten the threaded connectors if necessary.

Have a collecting vessel at the ready

Open the sampling tap

Testing the hydraulic installation of the metering system:

Check the system for negative pres‐ sure

Assembly

Page 20

2. If water flows out of the sampling tap, the system is not under negative pressure and is working correctly

If air is drawn in, this means that there is nega‐ tive pressure in the system. In this case, throttle the valve at the point at which the sample water pipe enters the filtration circuit - the pressure should not exceed 2 bar.

3. Use the stopcock on the sample water drain to finely adjust the system

5.3.2

Sensors

Observe the operating instructions for the sensors.

1. Close the shut-off valves upstream and downstream of the in-line probe housing

2. Remove the transparent protective cap from the ball-shaped end of the redox sensor

3. Manually screw the redox sensors into separate threaded holes on the in-line probe housing. Then carefully tighten using an SW 17 open-ended spanner until the threaded con‐ nector is tight

4. Testing the sensors' hydraulic installation: Adjust the flow using the shut-off valve to 20... 60 l/h

Check whether the threaded connectors on the in-line probe housing are tight.

WARNING! Danger from hazardous substances! Possible consequence: Fatal or very serious injuries.

Please ensure when handling hazardous substances that you have read the latest safety data sheets pro‐ vided by the manufacture of the hazardous substance. The actions required are described in the safety data sheet. Check the safety data sheet regularly and replace, if necessary, as the hazard potential of a sub‐ stance can be re-evaluated at any time based on new findings.

The system operator is responsible for ensuring that these safety data sheets are available and that they are kept up to date, as well as for producing an associ‐ ated hazard assessment for the workstations affected.

CAUTION! Wear suitable protective equipment (gloves, protective

goggles,...) when commissioning.

Refer to the latest safety data sheets on the feed chemicals.

NOTICE! The sampling tap must be closed otherwise sample

water will escape.

The service technician is responsible for instructing the operating and maintenance personnel during commis‐ sioning.

Maximum permissible operating pressure: In the sample water line:

–

2 bar at 30 °C (sample water)

1. Tighten all threaded connectors prior to initial commissioning

2. Open the shut-off valves downstream of the metering pumps, in the sample water line and also the shut-off valves in your system

3. Insert the suction lances into the relevant chemical storage tanks for disinfectant

7. Reset any possible consequences of this in the overall instal‐ lation

8. Check the threaded connector for leak-tightness

6.3

Calibration

You have to regularly calibrate the sensor during ope‐ ration. That means: 24 hours after initial calibration and then weekly thereafter.

Please take into account any differing national regula‐ tions.

The flow sensor should switch when the flow falls (flow sensor is con‐ nected as an NC).

Start up

Page 24

WARNING! Danger from hazardous substances! Possible consequence: Fatal or very serious injuries.

There must be a chlorine or bromine concentration of approx.

0.5 ... 0.8 mg/l in the pool to be able to calibrate the sensors.

Example (without depletion losses): A swimming pool contains 60 m3, by way of example. To obtain a chlorine concentration of 0.5 ...

0.8 mg/l in this swimming pool, requires 0.20 ... 0.32 litres of 12 % sodium-calcium hypochlorite (density (

ρ) 1.22 ± 0.02).

Meter in the required quantity of sodium-calcium hypochlorite into the filtration circuit, either using the chlorine metering pump or evenly distribute the quantity of sodium-calcium hypochlorite needed into the swimming pool using a meas‐ uring cup.

An even concentration can be expected once the reac‐ tion time has elapsed:

reaction time [h] = cup contents [m3] / circulation capacity [m3/h]

Page 26

Necessity of calibrating the zero point Calibration of the zero point is not generally necessary.

Calibration of the zero point is only necessary if the sensor is operated at the lower limit of the measuring range or if the 0.5 ppm sensor version is used.

During the calibration, the DULCOMETER® D1Cb / D1Cc sets the control outputs to "0". Exception: a basic load or a manual control value has been set, this remains active. The mA standard signal outputs are frozen. The measured value frozen at the start of cali‐ bration is suggested as a DPD value. The DPD value can be set using the arrow keys. Calibration is only possible if the DPD value is ≥ 2 % of the measuring range of the sensor.

NOTICE! Prerequisites for correct calibration of the sensor slope – The DPD method required by the feed chemical

employed will be used

–

The run in period for the sensor has been adhered to

– There is permitted and constant flow at the in-line

probe housing

– There is temperature equalisation between the

sensor and the sample water

– There is a constant pH value in the permitted

range

The sensor is fitted, flushed with sample water and connected electrically to the DULCOMETER® D1Cb / D1Cc and run-in.

There has to be adequate feed chemical in the sample water for calibration (> 2% of the measuring range of the sensor).

Remove sample water directly at the measuring point and deter‐ mine the content of metering medium in the sample water in "ppm" using an appropriate reference method (e.g. DPD, titration etc.). Enter this value as follows at the DULCOMETER® D1Cb / D1Cc:

Select Calibration menu. Then press

The current measured value will now be frozen.

2. Take a sample of water and perform a reference measure‐ ment within 15 minutes

Select "DPD value" of unit to be calibrated using the key

Continue with

5. If necessary, match the flashing ppm value to the value determined with the measurement using the keys,

Necessity of calibrating the zero point Calibration of the zero point is not generally necessary.

Calibration of the zero point is only necessary if the sensor is operated at the lower limit of the measuring range or if the 0.5 ppm sensor version is used.

A container with water, which is free of additives that could falsify the measured result, is needed for calibration. Immerse the dis‐ mounted, but still electrically connected to the DULCOMETER® D1Cb / D1Cc, sensor in this water. Use the sensor to stir the water for approx. 5 minutes until the measured value displayed at the DULCOMETER® D1Cb / D1Cc is steady and close to "0".

Test is running.

A buffer value is suggested once the waiting time has expired.

Using keys , and adjust the displayed "buffer" (flashing) value to the mV value of the ORP buffer solution in the test container. Confirm the value with

The D1Cb displays the status message of the ORP sensor in plain text. If the ORP sensor is functioning cor‐ rectly, continuous display 1 will be displayed directly

5. If the ORP sensor is unclean or defective, the ORP sensor should be cleaned, as described in the ORP sensor oper‐ ating instructions, or alternatively replaced

Should the result of the calibration lie outside of the specified error limits, an error message will appear, see

Maintenance

WARNING! Danger from hazardous substances! Possible consequence: Fatal or very serious injuries.

Observe the operating instructions for the metering pump (option), the in-line probe housing, the sensors, dirt filter and multifunctional valve (optional).

Thoroughly flush the metering system with water before carrying out maintenance.

You must now calibrate the sensors regularly. That means: 24 hours after initial calibration and then weekly thereafter. Take into account any differing national regulations.

You must check the actual swimming pool water values daily to guarantee the safe operation of your swimming pool system.

1. Check the chlorine concentration using the DPD test (refer to the operating instructions for the test kit)

2. Check the pH value using the phenol red test (refer to the operating instructions for the test kit)

If the swimming pool water values lie outside the toler‐ ance limits, then conduct additional tests, as described in

Ä ‘An overview of maintenance work’ Table on page 29

1. Regularly conduct a visual inspection of the metering system, specifically the sensors and the flow meter with flow sensor for:

n Air bubbles in the sample water n The state of the sensors n Leakages n Correct flow values n To ascertain whether the flow sensor is fastened correctly

onto the flow meter

n To ascertain whether the float is moving easily within the

flow meter: To do so, note down the flow value and then change the flow value - the float should change position

Call Customer service if one of these points is not cor‐ rect.

Only with metering pump Beta®

Check the LEDs at the

metering pumps. Call service if:

n the red LED illuminates n the yellow LED illuminates n the green LED does not illuminate and the circulating

pump is running

3. Check the liquid/powder levels in the storage tanks

Pour in feed chemical if the liquid/powder level has fallen below 10 cm.

4. Check the sensors by calibrating them

1. Close the stopcocks upstream and downstream of the in-line probe housing

2. Unscrew the filter bowl

3. Remove the filter insert and clean it without detergent

4. Insert the filter insert into the housing

5. Check the sealing ring and the sealing surfaces for cleanli‐ ness, and clean if necessary

6. Screw the filter bowl until tight

7. Open the stopcocks on the in-line probe housing

Technical data

Refer to the product-specific operating instructions for technical data on the controller, sensors, in-line probe housing, metering pump and multifunctional valve.

Cleaning the injection valve Localised increases in pH can occur through the

metering of chlorine into the swimming pool water. This can result in limescale forming in the injection valve.

Regularly check, clean and descale the injection valve. The frequency of this work depends on the usage and ambient parameters of your system and must be deter‐ mined during operation.

Maximum permissible operating pressure
