The Ixom Watercare, Inc. Disinfection Boosting System, DBS-125, is specically designed to pump
the full range of concentrations of Sodium Hypochlorite. The design enables this system to be por-
table, operated by a wide range of portable air compressors, and allows the user to dose, rinse and
air purge at multiple locations with a single unit.
COMPACT, CONTAINED, AND PORTABLE DESIGN
User friendly design featuring a disinfectant holding tank and fresh water rinse tank. Secondary self
containment is integrated into the frame structural design. The unit is portable and easily ts in small
to full sized pick-up boxes.
SELF-PRIMING CONFIGURATION
Pump location allows ooded suction from both disinfectant and rinse water holding reservoirs. Pump
is located inside containment enclosure for minimized user exposure and safe operation.
CORROSION RESISTANT COMPONENTS
All wetted material components are of chemical compatibility with Sodium Hypochlorite. Stainless
steel hardware and containment on non-wetted parts are utilized for atmospheric corrosion
resistance.
FLOW AND LIQUID LEVEL INDICATION
Visible liquid level of chemical holding tank, with level indicators precise to fractions of a gallon.
Disinfectant Water
Air
THREE STAGE CHEMICAL BOOSTING SYSTEM
Easily dose disinfectant with the high performance Air-Operated
Double Diaphragm (AODD) pump discharging at a rate of 0.5gpm
to 4.0gpm at heads up to 125psi or +200 ft. Easy liquid selection
valve operation to switch from pumping chemical to pumping rinse
water. Three-way main control valve allows user to switch from
pumping disinfectant to pumping rinse water and to purge injec-
tion lines dry using the same air compressor operating the AODD
pump.
Frequent boosting with small doses of chlorine
is far less costly than having a major problem
occur in a tank. This portable disinfectant
boosting unit allows you to dose smaller
amounts of chlorine more frequently allowing
your tanks to be maintained within your desired
chlorine residual levels. With frequent monitoring
and this portable boosting unit you can give your
customers quality water they deserve.

The DBS-125 is designed to operate with an air compressor capable of producing 4cfm at 60psi. An
air compressor is required to operate this system and is not included with the purchase of this product.
Connecting the DBS-125 to your potable water tank:
Be sure to check and secure all connections before starting the disinfectant boost unit. This unit
comes equipped with a 30 ft discharge hose to connect the disinfectant boost unit to the injection port
of your potable water tank. The injection hose is equipped with Banjo® quick-connect ttings to easily
adapt to the disinfectant boost unit and to SolarBee circulation equipment chemical injection lines.
Locate the discharge port on the side of the control panel of the disinfectant boost unit. Remove the
protective dust cap and set aside. Connect the mating end of the 30 ft discharge hose to the discharge
port engaging both cam levers to make a secure connection.
Connect the opposite end of the 30 ft discharge hose to your potable water tanks injection port, also
engaging both cam levers of the quick connect ttings for a secure connection. Open any valves in
line with the injection port of the potable water tank, if applicable.
Connecting the air compressor to operate the DBS-125:
Before connecting the air supply to the disinfectant boost unit, please be sure that the main control
valve is turned to the “OFF” position.
Once the main control valve is turned to the “OFF” position, the air supply can now be connected to
the “Compressor Quick Connect” tting (Milton Type M). There are different styles of air ttings, so
you may be required to change out this tting if it is not compatible with your type of air compressor
quick coupler. Air supply quick connection ttings can be purchase at most automotive or hardware
stores. This tting can easily be changed out to accommodate your air compressor.
Once the air supply is connected to the disinfectant boost unit, adjust the air pressure using the
“Pressure regulator”. Set the air pressure to 75psi. Never allow air pressure to exceed 125psi.
This may damage certain components of the disinfectant boost system.

Selecting the desired liquid for discharge:
Now that you have all connections made to safely dose your
potable water tank, you will have to select which holding tank to
pump from depending on the desired liquid you would like to pump.
Using the below diagram, turn only the corresponding valve to the
open position to pump your desired liquid.
The “DISINFECTANT” valve will allow dosing from the 20
gallon storage tank as labeled on the disinfectant boost units tank
cover. The “RINSE WATER” valve will allow dosing from the 5 gallon
storage tank as labeled on the disinfectant boost units tank cover.
To start dosing your tank, rst make note of the liquid level
“site tube” gauge on the side of the “DISINFECTANT” 20
gallon holding tank. Turn the “DISINFECTANT” valve to the OPEN
position.
Dosing your potable water tank:
Turn the main control valve to the “PUMP” position. This will allow air to ow from the air compressor
to the AODD pump to start pumping from the selected holding tank. Use the “Flow Regulator” needle
valve to adjust the rate of which you would like to dose. Dosing should occur between 0.5gpm and
no greater than 4.0gpm.
Knowing the amount of disinfectant you would like to boost, use the site tube gauge to dose the
desired amount of disinfectant. Turn the main control valve to the “OFF” position once you have
dosed the desired amount of disinfectant. CLOSE the “Disinfectant Valve” and OPEN the “RINSE
WATER” valve. Turn the main control valve back to the “PUMP ON” position to pump a small amount
of rinse water, approximately 1 gallon, from the 5 gallon holding tank. The rinse water will push the
remaining disinfectant through the injection line at the desired injection rate between 0.5gpm and no
greater than 4.0gpm.

Purging the injection lines:
Now that the desired amount of disinfectant is completely injected, slowly turn the main control valve
to the “PURGE” position. This will use the air from the air compressor to purge the injection line free
of the remaining water and residual disinfectant in the injection line. Turn the main control valve to
the “OFF” position after approx. 3 to 5 seconds of purging.
Flushing the injection lines:
In order to keep your injection lines free from disinfectant scaling, it is necessary to ush the lines
clean of any disinfectant residual. With the “Rinse Water Valve” in the OPEN position, repeat the
dosing instructions by turning the main control valve to the “PUMP” position. Dose only a small
amount of rinse water, approximately 0.125 gallons, from the 5 gallon holding tank.
Once a small amount of rinse water is pumped into the injection lines, turn the main control valve to
the “PURGE” position for approximately 3 to 5 seconds. This will push the rinse water quickly thru the
injection lines washing the line of the remaining disinfectant residual. Repeat these ushing steps 3
to 4 times, pumping approximately 0.125 gallons of rinse water and purging for 3 to 5 seconds.

Once you feel the injection lines are thoroughly rinsed, complete
a nal purge cycle. Purge the injection lines a nal time for
approximately 15 seconds. This will remove most of the
moisture from the injection lines to prevent damage to the
injection lines due to freezing or scaling.
You have now successfully dosed your potable water tank using the Ixom Watercare, Inc. DSB-125
system. Make sure the main control valve and both liquid selection valves are all turned to the “OFF”
or “Closed” positions before disconnecting the 30 ft discharge line from the potable water tank or from
the disinfectant boost unit.
Once the disinfectant boost unit is turned “OFF”, you may turn off and disconnect the air compressor
from the unit.
