Precise, simple and reliable
Installed directly in the water supply line, the DOSATRON
operates by using water pressure as the power source.
The water activates the DOSATRON, which takes up the
required percentage of concentrate. Inside the DOSATRON, the
concentrate is mixed with the water.
The water pressure forces the solution downstream. The dose
of concentrate will be directly proportional to the volume of
water entering the DOSATRON, regardless of variations in flow
or pressure which may occur in the main line.

PRECAUTIONS
1 - GENERAL REMARKS
- When connecting a DOSATRON
either to the public water supply
or to its own water source, you
must respect the regulations in
force concerning protection of
the source i.e. backflow prevention, etc.
- In a case where the water installation is higher than the DOSATRON
itself, there is a possible risk of
water and concentrate flowing
back through the DOSATRON. In
this case, installing a non-return
valve downstream is recommended.
- Do not install the DOSATRON
just above an acid container,
(risk of acid fumes attacking the
DOSATRON) and protect it from
possible contact with corrosive
products.
- Protect the DOSATRON from
freezing temperatures by draining
it and store it away from sources
of excessive heat.
- Do not install the DOSATRON
on the suction side of the supply
pump (risk of siphoning).
- During any intervention the operator must stay in front of the
DOSATRON and wear protective
eyewear and gloves.
- It is the responsibility of the
owner/operator to replace the
injection seals annually to ensure
precise injection.
- The setting of the Dosatron’s
dosing rate is the sole responsibility of the user. The user has
to respect the recommendations
given by the manufacturer of the
chemical product.
- It is the responsibility of the
owner/operator to check that the
flow and pressure of the installation
do not exceed the DOSATRON
characteristics.
- It is the responsibility of the owner/
operator of the DOSATRON, to
determine the correct amount
of solution and injection ratio to
obtain the desired result.
- An air inlet, an impurity or a chemical attack on a seal can interrupt
the dosing function. It is recommended to periodically check that
the solution is being correctly
drawn up into the DOSATRON.
- Change the suction tube as soon
as it seems damaged by the chemical.
- Relieve the pressure after use
(advised).
- Rinsing of the DOSATRON is
required :
. when changing chemicals,
. before handling the DOSATRON,
to avoid any contact with the chemical.
© DOSATRON INTERNATIONAL / 5
PRECAUTIONS (cont...)
1 - GENERAL REMARKS
(cont...)
- Before applying any aggressive chemicals, please consult
your distributor to confirm compatibility with the dosing pump.
- All assembly should be done without tools, hand tighten only.
2 - WATER WITH HIGH
PARTICLE CONTENT
- A (ex. : 300 mesh - 60 microns
depending on your water quality)
water filter must be installed upstream from the DOSATRON (see
accessories), if a filter is not installed abrasive substances will cause
the DOSATRON to deteriorate
prematurely.
3 - WATER-HAMMER /
EXCESSIVE FLOW
- For installations subject to water
hammer a protection device such
as a check valve or union ball
check must be fitted (pressure/flow
control system).
- For automatic installations, slow
opening and closing solenoid
valves are preferable.
- In an installation where a
DOSATRON serves several sectors, the closing of one sector and
the opening of another sector must
be done at the same time (simultaneous operation of the solenoid
valves).
4 - INSTALLATION LOCATION
- The location of the DOSATRON
and concentrate container should
be accessible, but should never
present a risk of pollution or contamination.
- It is recommended to label all
water lines with a warning about
the injected solution i.e. Not For
Human Consumption.
5 - MAINTENANCE
௘5LQVH WKH LQMHFWLRQ DUHDV
after using the DOSATRON.
To do this, insert suction hose
into a container of clean water
and inject about 1/4 liter
[8 1/2 US Fl.oz].
- Routine maintenance once a
year will add to the life of your
DOSATRON. Replace the injection
seals as well as the suction hose
annually to ensure proper injection.
6 - SERVICE
- This DOSATRON was tested
prior to packaging.
- Complete maintenance and seal
kits are available.
- Call your DOSATRON distributor
for service or parts.

ASSEMBLING THE DOSATRON
ASSEMBLY SHOULD BE
CARRIED OUT WITHOUT
TOOLS
The DOSATRON is delivered with:
- a wall support,
- a suction hose with a strainer.,
US models : 2 connectors for inlet
and outlet with seals.
The
bracket
enables
the
DOSATRON to be fixed to a wall.
Snap the DOSATRON into the
bracket by springing apart the
bracket arms until the 2 lugs on
the sides and the 2 on the upper
pump part (Fig. 1-A) click into
place (Fig. 1-B).

For
US models
ASSEMBLING THE DOSATRON (cont...)
The DOSATRON is delivered with a suction hose (cut it to the needed
length) enabling its use with a large capacity concentrate container.
The hose must be fitted with its strainer and weights.
The instructions for fitting the hose are to be found in the specific chapter.
NOTE : The maximum suction height is 4 meters (13 vertical feet).
Fit the hose, equipped with its strainer and its weight, and immerse it in
the solution to be injected.
IMPORTANT ! - Do not put the suction tube strainer on the bottom
of the stock solution container. The strainer must be suspended
at least 10 cm [4”] above the bottom of the tank to avoid sucking
up the insoluble particles that may damage the injection assembly
(Fig. 3).
- Do not put the strainer on the ground.

Under no circumstance should the solution level be above the
water inlet of the DOSATRON (to avoid siphoning situations).
© DOSATRON INTERNATIONAL / 8
INSTALLATION HINTS
The DOSATRON can be connected to the main water line directly
(Fig. 5) or on a by-pass (Fig. 6),
recommended.
If your flow rate is above the operating limits of the DOSATRON, see
EXCESSIVE FLOW.
To prolong the working life of the
DOSATRON it is advisable to install
a filter (ex.: 300 mesh - 60 microns
depending on your water quality)
upstream.
This is imperative if the water
contains impurities or particles,
especially if the water comes from
a well.
A filter is recommended and required for the warranty to be valid.
Installing the DOSATRON on a
bypass enables clean water to
be supplied without operating the
DOSATRON and the DOSATRON
to be easily dismantled.
When connecting an
installation to the public water
supply, you must respect the
rules and regulations in force
in the country.

EXCESSIVE FLOW (as an indication)
If your DOSATRON clicks more than 46 clicks, that is 23 cycles in
15 seconds, you are close to the superior flow limit. If you need more
flow, you must install a DOSATRON with a higher flow capacity.
© DOSATRON INTERNATIONAL / 9
Putting the Dosatron
into order
USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
- Switch the bypass button on the top of the DOSATRON to position ON.
- Operate the DOSATRON until the product to be injected is drawn up into
the injection stem (the product is visible through the plastic tube).
- The DOSATRON makes a characteristic “click-clack” noise when
working.
NOTE : The time required to prime the suction hose depends on the
water flow-rate, the ratio setting and the length of the suction hose. To
bleed the air from the suction hose and accelerate the priming, set the
injection rate at maximum. Once the DOSATRON is primed, adjust to
the required injection rate (see § ADJUSTING THE INJECTION RATE).
INTEGRATED BY-PASS
- By-pass in ON position : the DOSATRON is sucking, injecting and
mixing concentrate into water at the desired percentage.
- By-pass in OFF position : the DOSATRON is not working and is not
drawing up any concentrate.
© DOSATRON INTERNATIONAL / 10
Maintenance
RECOMMENDATIONS
1 - When using soluble products
to be made up into solutions, we
recommend the periodic dismantling of the entire injection
part (see : § CLEANING
AND REFITTING THE
SUCTION
VALVE
§
CHANGING SEALS IN THE
INJECTION ASSEMBLY).
Thoroughly rinse all the elements of the injection part
with water and re-assemble
them after having previously
lubricated the seal (Fig. 7)
with a silicone lubricant, in
the case of difficulty in refitting.
2 - Before putting the DOSATRON
into operation after a non-use period,
remove the motor piston and soak
it into lukewarm water
< 40° C overnight. This
helps to dissolve any
deposits which may
have dried onto the
motor piston.

KNOW YOUR FLOW
A SIMPLE METHOD
THE DOSATRON IS COMPOSED OF :
A driving volumetric hydraulic motor
piston connected to :
A dosing piston.
The speed of the motor is proportional to the flow of water passing
through the system.
The greater the flow the faster it goes.
In its up and down movement, you can hear the motor piston «click» :
Once in the up position
Once in the down position
Count the :
number of click in 15 sec. x 0.8 x 60 = Flow of water in litres/hour.
2
NOTE: This method of calculation cannot replace a flow meter.
It is given only as an approximate guide.
