INSTRUCTION TO ASSEMBLE THE MICRO-DOSER KIT PLUMBING SECTION
Remove the white clear caps from the ends of the
Water Meter, and discard.
To attach the Adapters to the ends of the Water
Meter, slide the Adapter through the Nut. Place the
Gasket between the Adapter and the Water Meter
threads, as indicated in the image. Hand tighten
the Nut.
Wrap Thread Tape 4 to 5 times on all threads,
except on the PRV Adapter Kit parts. Make sure to
wrap tape clockwise to prevent from unraveling.
Attach a Union to the inlet side of the Water Meter.
Make sure the arrow on the Water Meter is pointing
in the direction of the ow.
Attach the Check Valve to the outlet side of the
Water Meter. Make sure the arrow on the Check
Valve is pointing in the direction of the ow.
Attach a Close Nipple to the Check Valve.

For these steps you will need the PRV, PRV Bracket, PRV Adapter Kit from your Micro-Doser Kit
& the Etatron eOne MF Pump
Attach the PRV Bracket to the bottom of the PRV.
Use the nut and washer (included) to ensure the
bracket is on securely.
NOTE: The outer holes on the bracket are used for
mounting the PRV to a surface. Those need to be
drilled out to accommodate ¼” screws/bolts.
Place the Small O-rings in the grooves of the
Adapter, and the Large O-rings in the threads of
the Adapters.
NOTE: Wrap thread tape around the adapter’s
threads 2 - 3 times to avoid any leaks.
Attach the Adapters to the PRV by threading them
into the Unions. Make sure the large O-rings face
the Unions. Do not overtighten.
Take your pump from its box and mount it on the
wall using the bracket included with the pump. Grab
the Opaque Rigid Polyethylene Discharge Tube
(ORPDT) included with the pump, and cut it in half
(if cut too short the tension may cause leaks).
Connect each one of the tube’s halves to the
Adapters on the PRV (see step 16).
To attach the tubes to the PRV, insert the tube
through the outside opening of PRV Nut. Insert the
Locking Collar making sure the Collar’s crown
points away from the Nut. Now, insert the Nozzle
in the tube’s opening. Push the Collar and Nozzle
together as close as possible. Repeat for the other
tube half.
Now attach the ORPDT to the Adapters on the
PRV using the Nuts.

Grab the other end of the ORPDT on the inlet side
of the PRV, and attach it to the Discharge Valve of
the pump’s head. Follow instructions in step 16 to
attach the tube.
Mount the PRV to the wall or surface using 1/4”
screws/bolts. Make sure the tube runs with no
tension from the pump to the PRV.
Grab the Injection Valve from the pump box. Insert
the Injection Valve into the ¾” to ½” Reducer
Bushing in the Micro-Doser Plumbing Assembly,
hand tighten only.
Anchor the Micro-Doser Plumbing Assembly to
the wall or surface, right underneath the pump.
Remove the Nut, Collar, and Nozzle from the top
of the Injection Valve, and attach the tube from
the outlet side of the PRV, following the same
procedure in step 16.
Your Micro-Doser 1 ½” Kit assembly is now
connected to your pump.

Attaching the Foot Filter and Priming Tubing
Grab the Clear
exible PVC Tube
included with your pump.
Cut the Tube in half,
one piece for the Priming
Valve and the other one
for the Suction Valve.
Attach the end of one of
the sections to the
Suction Valve and the
other end to the Foot
Filter, following
procedure in Step 16.
Make sure the Foot
Filter sits comfortably
in the chemical container.
Slide the second
section of the
Clear Flexible
PVC Tube onto
the Priming Barb.
Place the other
end of the tube
inside the
chemical container.
Next, connect
the pump to the
Water Meter
(see steps
28 - 33 below).
CONNECTING THE WATER METER - You will need a punch and a small at head screwdriver
To connect the pump to
the Water Meter, remove
the bottom front cover
from the pump, using a
at head screwdriver.
Remove the rubber
cap on the left.
Using a punch tool,
punch a small hole
through the rubber
cap.
Insert the Water Meter
wires through the hole
in the rubber cap.
Run the wires back
through the hole in the
front cover and reinsert
the rubber cap.
Insert the wires into
terminals 3 and 4 from left
(push the buttons to insert).
Make sure they are
connected properly
and secured.

Priming the Pump
Plug in the pump,
the display will read
SETUP FW01 VFT.
Press the arrow
to the right to reach
FW03 MF.
Push the START/STOP button twice. Screen shows
OPERATING MODE/ MANUAL MODE.
Loosen the air
bleed nut. Push
the START/STOP
button to begin the
priming functions.
The pump will begin to
stroke/click.
Once the chemical
starts going down
the air bleed tube,
re-tighten the air
bleed nut
back up.
Chemical should
start going up
the discharge
tube and toward
the injection valve.
Push the START/STOP button to stop the priming
function once chemical reaches the injection valve.

Please see page 9 for detailed instructions to
determine the Number of Pulses (N) Per Water
Meter Signal.
Pulse/Stroke Volume is calculated in relation to
the pressure in the irrigation line. Use the values
below to determine volume.
Push the down arrow to enter into the program.
Use the right arrow button to enter number of
pulses for each gallon of water. Press the down
arrow to save the settings.
Push the START/STOP button to begin the
program operation.
You can now turn on the irrigation water to begin
operation of the system using the water meter.

See operating manual for complete
instructions and safety standards.
When connecting a metering pump either to a
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.

Pump Calculations
Follow these steps to calculate the Number of Pulses Per Signal (N)
to reach a desired Injection Rate.
1. Identify operating pressure of system (Dynamic PSI).
2. Specify the volume of concentrate to be injected, per gallon.
3. Identify single pulse volume at the operating pressure identied in Step 1.
4. DIVIDE:
a. (Volume to be injected per gallon) / (Single Pulse Volume) = Number of Strokes
needed per gallon.
b. If this is not a whole number:
i. Chose closest whole number to set – variation from desired injection will be minimal,
but uctuations may be noticeable at very low or very high ow rates.
See “USING THE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE” to decrease the Single Pulse Volume, to a volume
that divides evenly into the desired Volume to be injected per gallon.
Using the Pressure Relief Valve
Etatron eOne pumps should be installed
with a Pressure Relief Valve on the
injection line, between the pump and the
injection point.
This valve serves two purposes:
a. To vacuum relief in a siphon situation.
b. To make changes to the Single Pulse
Volume. Using the adjustment screw,
the amount of pressure that the eOne
pump experiences can be increased
above line pressure.

To adjust the Single Pulse Volume with the Pressure Relief Valve (PRV), follow these steps:
Remove the Black Protection Cap from the PRV. Loosen the Counter Nut from the Adjustment Screw.
Turn Adjustment Screw clockwise to increase Back
Pressure, and reduce Single Pulse Volume.
Turn Adjustment Screw counter-clockwise to decrease
Back Pressure, and increase Single Pulse Volume
(back pressure cannot be adjusted to PSI lower than
dynamic pressure of water line).
Perform Volumetric test to determine/conrm
Single Pulse Volume (see VOLUMETRIC TESTING
PROCEDURE steps).
Repeat steps 3-4 as necessary until desired Single
Pulse Volume is reached.

Volumetric Testing Procedure
You can test check the amount of solution being injected by drawing concentrate from a graduated cylinder, with
MINIMUM 5 mL graduation, and at least 250 mL in total volume; then, run the pump for a set number of strokes.
All volumetric testing should be done with the pump fully primed and ready to operate. The pump should be in
STANDBY MODE.
Connect a hose
to the Test / Dump
Port on the water line.
Put the hose end in
the drain.
Fill a graduated
cylinder with
150 mL - 200 mL
of concentrate
solution.

The suction strainer will displace ~50 mL.
Note the volume in the graduated cylinder with
the suction strainer.
Using buttons, set the pump to
MANUAL MODE.
Press button to enter the Mode Settings. Press button, the screen should read
PULSES / MINUTE - PULSES NUM: 300
Press buttons to set PULSES / MINUTE
to 100 (100 pulses / min).
Press the button, to save the new PULSE /
MINUTE settings.
Open Test/Dump Port to allow water ow.
GPM of water does not matter at this time, injection
will be done manually rather than proportionately.
Press the START / STOP button to activate the
pump. Run the pump for 1:00 Minute (use a timer).
