9. If nitrogen flushing is not desired, press the nitrogen Stop button (6).
10. If you wish to perform a manual nitrogen flush, select the number in the Manual section of the nitrogen screen (7)
while the system is stopped. To do this, tap on the number. A keyboard will appear on the screen. Enter the number
of minutes desired for the system to pump the nitrogen, and then press Manual (7). This operation is done to clean
the equipment or flush the SO2hose or wine tubing.
To regulate the dosing speed for the programmed amount of SO2:
1. Ensure that the Desired Flow Rate (8) is in the OFF position.
2. See the Quick Flow dosing at (9). If a faster or slower dosing speed is desired, open or close the nitrogen regulator
(SEE INSTALLATION MANUAL (5)).
3. The low flow alarm can also be activated to have the system sound an alert when the minimum SO2flow rate is
lower than programmed.
4. To do this, keep the indicator (10) in the ON position and tap on the number. A keyboard will appear, where you
can program the minimum number of kilos/hour for dosing, Low Flow Alarm (10). This may happen when, for
example, the bottle is empty, the outlet valve is closed, an obstruction is present, etc.
2.2 In-line dosing.
Typically, for the in-line dosing mode, the Weight to be Dosed (1) should be in the OFF position, as this procedure is
intended to homogenize the must/wine with a defined dosage of SO2in the wine tubing. Remember that, if the Weight
to be Dosed (1) is in the ON position, the system will stop when it reaches the programmed weight.
In-line dosing may be done automatically or manually.
A. Automatic in-line dosing:
1. Select the ON mode on the Desired Flow Rate (8) section of the screen.
2. Press the Auto with Pump (11) selector and make sure that the dosing equipment is connected to the winery’s
transfer pump (SEE INSTALLATION MANUAL (14)).
3. In this mode, the system will operate when the transfer pump does. When this happens, a pump icon will appear at
(11).
4. Next, enter the amount of SO2to be dosed in grams of SO2/kilo of must or wine. To do this, tap on the number in
Dosage (12), and a keyboard will appear where the dosage can be entered.
5. Next, select the Pump Flow (13) by tapping on the number. A keyboard will appear where the transfer pump flow
can be entered in kilos/hour.
