in the measuring water tubing or in the circulation to prevent dosing if there is an

1.5.3 Dosing performance / Dosing scheme
The metering of the two chemicals is regulated in cycles with pauses between the metering
intervals. The dosing performances are defined by setting dosing cycles ( time between the
intervals in minutes) and dosing times (durance of running dosing motors 0-100%)
By means of the Code-switches on the control plate (see para 5) the dosing performance can be
adjusted to the principle need of the pool by setting 4 cycle times and combination for dosing times
for chlorine and acid.
Dosing performance for chlorine and acid at continuous dosing –without pause :
Dosing motor PLG 35-30 /dosing screw d19 : app. 4,8 kg/h
Acid pump Sa with dosing hose 3,2x1,6 mm : app. 4,0 l/h
With a set dosing cycle of 1 minute following maximum dosing performances are reached:
Here for dosing motor PLG 35-30–Dosing performance chlorine = chlorine granulate:
Dosing cycle Dosing times Dosing performance
: Chlore - acid at 100% set with knob
Code switch S1 S2 S3 S4 max
1 minute off off 30-20 seconds off off 2,4 kg/h –1,3 l/h
^ 1 minute off off 40-10 seconds on off 3,2 kg/h –0,7 l/h
1 minute off off 20-20 seconds off on 1,6 kg/h –1,3 l/h
1 minute off off 10-10 seconds on on 0,8 kg/h –0,7 l/h
6 minutes on off at standard dosing times 30/20 sec. 0,4 kg/h –0,22 l/h
8 minutes off on at standard dosing times 30/20 sec. 0,3 kg/h –0,16 l/h
12 minutes on on at standard dosing times 30/20 sec. 0,2 kg/h –0,11 l/h
Using the dosing cycles 6 –8 –12 minutes the dosing performance is reduced to 1/6 –1/8 or
1/12 of the dosing performance with dosing cycle 1 minute.
Dosing is running always with the following steps::
-Dosing chlorine as long as set by the performance knob 0-100%,
-5 seconds pause, then following directly
-Dosing acid as long as set by the performance knob 0-100%,
-Pause till end of set cycle time
Example:
Settings by the code switch on control plate:
Cycle 1 minute, chlorine dosing 100% = 20seconds, acid dosing 100% =20 seconds.
Performance set by performance knob: chlorine 30%, acid 10%
Action: Chlorine dosing 30% of 20 seconds = 7 seconds, then 5 seconds pause, then acid dosing
10% of 20 seconds = 2 seconds, then pause 60 –(7+5+2) = 46 seconds etc.
When controlling the GRANUDOS dosing by an external auto-controller the dosing performance
must be set high enough to ensure the dosing times (= dosing performance) of acid and chlorine
shall not exceed 50% of total time. Dosing performance should be set on 3-5 times normal
consumption.
Chlorine and acid dosing are working independent,, it is dosed when the auto-controller
commands for the chemical –but always in the cycle procedure..
