Overview of the Device and Control Elements 5.2.4 Functional and Fault Indicators Fault indicator (red) The fault indicator lights up if the fluid level in the chemical feed container falls below the second switching point of the level switch (20 mm residual filling level in the chemical feed container). This LED flashes in the event of an undefined operating mode.
Functional Description 6 Functional Description 6.1 Liquid End The dosing process is performed as follows: The diaphragm is pressed into the dosing head; the pressure in the dosing head closes the suction valve and the feed chemical flows through the discharge valve out of the dosing head.
Functional Description 6.6 Functions The functions are described below in the "Operation" chapter. 6.7 Relays The pump has two connector options. Fault indicating relay option The relay can close a connected power circuit, in the event of for an alarm buzzer, in the event of fault or warning indicating alerts, such as a level warning.
Electrical Installation 7 Electrical Installation WARNING!
