3INSTALLATION
1TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
The KIT-PRO / KIT-PRO UL can be handled manually as it weighs only 5 kg. Always transport the
product inside its original packaging.
2STORAGE CONDITIONS
If not used immediately, the KIT-PRO/KIT-PRO UL should be stored with suitable covers in a
temperate, dry, clean, vibration-free and weatherproof environment. Protect from soil moisture by
placing the unit on shelves or wooden pallets. If the temperature is below 0°C, ensure that it does
not go lower than -10°C. If not specifically highlighted on the package, do not stack packaging, to
prevent damage to the KIT-PRO and to avoid tipping over or falling that can create accidents.
Ensure that access of unauthorized persons is not allowed in the storage location and that the floor
or shelf can support the weight of the machinery or equipment stored. Take additional safety
measures in the case of storage in extreme conditions, i.e. in sub-tropical or desert climates.
Report special storage conditions in advance in order to provide for adequate
packaging.
Check the dimensions and overall gross weight of the package before handling
or lifting it.

5ASSEMBLY
The KIT PRO /KIT PRO UL can be supplied in two versions:
-Assembled on an OBL metering pump (Black Line series)
-The assembly kit can be assembled and installed on an OBL Black Line 2.0 metering pump
(manufactured from May 2017 onwards)
The KIT PRO must be assembled on pumps not installed in a system. Contact an OBL
distributor in the event the OBL pump on which the KIT PRO is to be installed is
already operating in a system.
The KIT PRO is suitable for all OBL metering pumps of the Black Line series with a
standard motor (three-phase power supply 380V/230V/110V 50/60 Hz). Contact an
OBL distributor in the event motors with different characteristics are installed.
Follow the instructions below to assemble the KIT PRO on OBL’s Black Line metering pumps:
1. Make sure the motor is not powered
2. Make sure that the OBL metering pump on which the KIT PRO is to be installed is not
running.
3. Disassemble the base of the Black Line pump (pos. 117 in the BL2.0 M and R section
drawings)
4. Mount connection P20.2189 (Figure 1) using the M6x25 screws.
5. Fasten the KIT PRO to the connection (Figure 1) using the provided M6x18 screws.
6. Disconnect any connection to the electric motor terminal box of the Black Line metering
pump.
7. Connect the KIT PRO’s output cable to the terminal box of the Black
Line pump’s motor, making sure that the connection is delta (230 V)
like the picture on the side. Refer to the use and maintenance manual
of the Black Line metering pump, chapter 2 paragraph 6, and chapter
8. In the following table please find the information regarding colour
conductors associated to the interconnection of the motor and power
supply. The device shall be connected using this information.

8. KIT-PRO must be fixed to a stable support by tightening the M8 screws into the Ø8.5 holes
on the body (Figure 2).
Figure 2 Fastening holes
9. Before making electrical connections, make sure that the power mains voltage
matches the information contained on the KIT PRO /KIT PRO UL data plate.
6ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
6.1 Power supply connection
The cable glands should be tightened so that seal rings keep the necessary pressure:
-to prevent transmission of mechanical stress on the motor terminals
-to ensure mechanical protection (IP degree) of the terminal box
NOTE: Always make the earth connection using the appropriate
earth wire on the main power cable.
NOTE: In the event of power outage or disconnection, let the screen
switch off before reconnecting the power supply.
NOTE: For KIT-PRO UL cable glands should be tightened considering the
following torques:
1. Panel I/O Cable Gland = in-lbs (N-m)= 79.6 (9)
2. Power Cable gland: in-lbs (N-m)= 97 (11)

6.2 Signal connection
The KIT PRO has different signal connections, whose name are shown on the enclosure.
The KIT includes the relative connectors, which are provided with a 1-meter cable. The cables
supplied feature 4 conductors featuring different colours. The function of the input cables changes
depending on the hardware version. Please check the hardware operating on the controller in the
menu settings→firmware info→version. The version of the hardware can be 0.1 or 0.2 (from the
end of 2020). Table below Error! Reference source not found.shows the connectors needed.

6.3 Connecting the stroke counter sensor (proximity)
The stroke counter sensor Figure 7 is provided with the KIT PRO.
To install it, you just have to:
1. Loosen the oil cap (pos. 119 of the section drawing)
2. Tighten the proximity sensor in the oil cap housing
3. Connect the proximity sensor to the electronics using the appropriate connector
The proximity sensor is supplied with a spacer. Use the spacer on the M version of the KIT PRO
and remove it from the R version.
NOTE: Always make the connection using the appropriate connector. Do
not use or connect other inductive sensors to the proximity connection.
Make all the connections only when the pump is at a standstill.
4PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
1OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The KIT PRO is a management and control system for OBL’s Black Line metering pumps. The KIT
PRO can adjust the flow rate, changing the number of revs of the pump’s electric motor. The KIT
PRO has different operating modes (cf. chapter 5) to manage the pump’s flow rate.
The KIT PRO can receive an input alarm signal from the instruments installed on the metering
system, such as the level sensors.
The KIT PRO is provided with a display from where you can see the pump’s operating status and
enter the flow rate parameters. The different operating statuses of the pumps have different
colours:
-Operating mode colour (green, blue, azure, lilac): correct operation
-Yellow: incorrect yet not dangerous operation

File: UT-5601 Copyright © - OBL Metering pumps - All rights reserved
16
-Red: incorrect operation and pump lock
The PRO KIT does not adjust the stroke of the metering pump (cf. Use and maintenance manual of
the Line Black pump, chap. 10.2).
The KIT PRO adjusts the ratio between maximum and minimum flow rate provided, as it adds the
possibility to vary the number of revs of the electric motor and adjust the pump’s stroke. This way,
the turndown ratio can be of 500:1.
NOTE: The system does not automatically record every adjustment. Therefore,
the flow rate and volume indicated by the software may differ from those
actually provided, unless a calibration procedure is carried out (Table ) with
the new adjustment position.
2MAIN COMPONENTS AND DIMENSIONS
As shown in the following figures, the KIT PRO consists of:
1. 1 enclosure containing the electronic control unit
2. 1 connection
3. 1 proximity sensor
4. 4 connectors with a 1-meter cable
