Installation manual 5
1 Introduction
The Efficient Dosing System (EDS) is capable of connecting and synchronizing directly to the washer extractor with
Compass Control, Compass Pro or Clarus Control via a data cable. In Compass Control and Compass Pro any of
the RS232 connections in the control system can be used. In Clarus Control the X10 connection on CPU card A1
can be used.
The EDS controller automatically adjusts the chemical dosage rate up or down based on the weight instruction from
the washer extractor. This system will optimize the wash process, reduce chemical- and energy costs and deliver a
total cost solution to the customer.
Up to 50 wash programs may be stored with the EDS controller.
The EDS controller receives a signal from the washer extractor at predetermined times in the wash program.
Once a signal is received the EDS injects specific product(s) at that time in proportion to the weight of the linen as de-
termined via the automatic saving system.
fig.W01144
The pump-stand operates on 115VAC / 60 Hz, 220VAC / 60Hz, or 230VAC / 50 Hz. It also supplies low voltage power
to the EDS controller and provides an interface for the optional Flush manifold.
The optional Flush manifold provides an alternative means of chemical transfer to the washer extractor. In flush con-
figuration, the EDS is an integrated water flush chemical dispensing system.
Installation time and cost is significantly reduced with the computer based Laundry Program Manager or Formula ed-
itor program that allows an off-site technician to create sets of wash programs that are loaded onto the EDS controller
via a standard USB stick. (16 GB or smaller). Summary reports can be created in Excel or HTML.

2 Installation
2.1 General safety information
These installation, operation and servicing instructions shall only be performed by qualified personnel.
The EDS system must be installed in accordance with all applicable electrical and plumbing standards. All wash-
er extractor and dispenser power must be disconnected and the units isolated during installation and/or any time
the dispenser is maintained or serviced.
• Always verify all voltage sources with a meter.
• Do not locate the pump-stand under plumbing fittings that could leak.
• Ensure that the installer has enough room to carry and lift the units when installing the EDS system.
• Do not pick up unit by supply cord.
• Wear PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) when dispensing chemicals or other materials or when working in
the vicinity of all chemicals, filling or emptying equipment.
• Always observe safety and handling instructions of the chemical manufacturers.
• You must follow all precautions as advised on the product safety data sheet.
• Always direct discharge away from you or other persons or into approved containers.
• Always dispense cleaners and chemicals in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
• Always exercise caution when maintaining your equipment.
• Always re-assemble equipment according to instruction procedures. Be sure all components are firmly
screwed or latched into position.
• Keep equipment clean to maintain proper operation.

2.3 Requirements
• Verify that there is access to the appropriate power source for the unit.
• If the washer extractor has quick connections no external power source is needed for the pumps.
• The EDS system must not be installed near areas that suffer excess temperature changes, frost or precipitation of
any kind.
• Ensure that the units can be mounted in an accessible position above the height of the required discharge
location.
• The pump-stand shall be installed within 3 m of the washer extractor and close to product containers and at a con-
venient height for pump tube servicing, about 1–1.5 m.
The input tubing from the chemical container to the pump-stand shall not be more than 2 m.
The tubes must not be twisted and shall hang freely without any sharp bends. Longer tubes requires maintenance
more often.
• For installations with Flush manifold, make sure there is free space under the pump-stand for a Flush manifold,
water valve, and related plumbing.
• The EDS controller must be mounted securely to a wall or on the washer extractor.
The EDS controller can be mounted to a horizontal or vertical surface such as a wall or on the side panel on a
washer extractor.
• The EDS system must not be used or installed in an ATEX environment.
2.4 Installation of the pump-stand
The wall where the pump-stand shall be mounted must support wall anchors and must be flat and perpendicular to
the floor.
Use the wall mounting bracket as a template and mark the location of the holes on the wall.
Drill the holes and put in suitable wall anchors. Fasten the wall mounting bracket with the screws. Make sure the wall
mounting bracket is in level.
Mount the pump-stand on the wall mounting bracket by pressing it downwards until it is in position.
There are different sizes of pump-stands, from 2 pumps up to 6 pumps. The figure shows a pump-stand with 3 pumps
and a bracket used for this.

2.5 Installation of Flush manifold (option)
The Flush manifold is recommended in locations where the tubes between the pump-stand and the washer extractor
is more than 10 m.
It can also be used for safety reasons in installations where dangerous chemicals are used.
The Flush manifold is used to flush the tubes clean when not in use.
Mount the Flush manifold on a suitable location under the pump-stand. The Flush manifold shall be mounted on the
wall by the wall hangers (A).
