3 Safety and Responsibility
3.1 Users' qualifications
WARNING!
Danger of injury with inadequately qualified personnel!
The operator of the plant / device is responsible for
ensuring that the qualifications are fulfilled.
If inadequately qualified personnel work on the unit or
loiter in the hazard zone of the unit, this could result in
dangers that could cause serious injuries and material
damage.
– All work on the unit should therefore only be con‐
ducted by qualified personnel.
–Unqualified personnel should be kept away from the
hazard zone
Training Definition
Instructed personnel An instructed person is deemed to be a person who has been instructed and, if
required, trained in the tasks assigned to him/her and possible dangers that could
result from improper behaviour, as well as having been instructed in the required pro‐
tective equipment and protective measures.
Trained user A trained user is a person who fulfils the requirements made of an instructed person
and who has also received additional training specific to the system from ProMinent or
another authorised distribution partner.
Trained qualified personnel A qualified employee is deemed to be a person who is able to assess the tasks
assigned to him and recognize possible hazards based on his/her training, knowledge
and experience, as well as knowledge of pertinent regulations. The assessment of a
person's technical training can also be based on several years of work in the relevant
field.
Electrician Electricians are deemed to be people, who are able to complete work on electrical sys‐
tems and recognize and avoid possible hazards independently based on his/her tech‐
nical training and experience, as well as knowledge of pertinent standards and regula‐
tions.
Electricians should be specifically trained for the working environment in which the are
employed and know the relevant standards and regulations.
Electricians must comply with the provisions of the applicable statutory directives on
accident prevention.
Customer Service department Customer Service department refers to service technicians, who have received proven
training and have been authorised by ProMinent to work on the system.

3.3 General Safety Information
WARNING!
Danger from hazardous substances!
Possible consequence: Fatal or very serious injuries.
Please ensure when handling hazardous substances
that you have read the latest safety data sheets provided
by the manufacture of the hazardous substance. The
actions required are described in the safety data sheet.
Check the safety data sheet regularly and replace, if
necessary, as the hazard potential of a substance can
be re-evaluated at any time based on new findings.
The system operator is responsible for ensuring that
these safety data sheets are available and that they are
kept up to date, as well as for producing an associated
hazard assessment for the workstations affected.
WARNING!
Live parts!
Possible consequence: Fatal or very serious injuries
– Measure: Disconnect the mains power supply prior
to opening the housing
– De-energise damaged, defective units or units that
have been tampered with by disconnecting the
mains plug
WARNING!
Unauthorised access!
Possible consequence: Fatal or very serious injuries.
– Measure: Ensure that there can be no unauthorised
access to the unit
WARNING!
Operating faults!
Possible consequence: Fatal or very serious injuries.
– Ensure that the unit is only operated by adequately
qualified and technically expert personnel
–Please also observe the operating instructions for
controllers and fittings and any other component
groups, such as sensors, sample water pumps ...
– The operator is responsible for ensuring that per‐
sonnel are qualified
CAUTION!
Electronic malfunctions
Possible consequence: Material damage right through to
irreparable damage to the unit
– Do not lay the mains connection cable and data
cable together with cables that are prone to interfer‐
ence
–Measure: Take appropriate interference suppression
measures

CAUTION!
Warning of feed chemical spraying around
Spraying feed chemical caused by a leak.
Possible consequence: Injuries caused by chemicals.
– Regularly check the system for leaks.
–Ensure that the system with all components can be
de-energised from outside the danger zone by
appropriate measures (e.g. emergency stop switch
etc.).
NOTICE!
Correct sensor operation / Run-in period
Damage to the product or its surroundings
– Correct measuring and metering is only possible if
the sensor is working perfectly
– It is imperative that the run-in periods for the sen‐
sors are adhered to
– Allow for run-in periods when planning commis‐
sioning
– It may take a whole working day to run in the sensor
– Please read the operating instructions for the sensor
NOTICE!
Correct sensor operation
Damage to the product or its surroundings.
– Correct measuring and metering is only possible if
the sensor is working perfectly
–Check and calibrate the sensor regularly
NOTICE!
Compensation for control deviations
Damage to the product or its surroundings
– This controller cannot be used in control circuits
which require rapid compensation (< 30 s)
3.4 Intended Use
Intended Use
The unit is designed to measure and regulate the pH
value and chlorine content in swimming pools. Usually
the integrated metering pumps are intended for metering
the necessary chemicals. Only connect other feeder
assemblies, such as electrolysis systems or calcium
hypochlorite systems, if these systems are intended for
use in swimming pools.
Only use the unit in accordance with the technical details
and specifications provided in these operating instruc‐
tions and in the operating instructions for the individual
components (such as sensors, fittings, calibration instru‐
ments, metering pumps etc.).
All other uses or modifications are prohibited.

5 Storage and transport
CAUTION!
– Prior to storage or transport, the
DULCODOS® Pool metering systems must be free
from feed chemicals and water
– Rinse out the media carrying parts, including the
tubes using clean, pure water
– Transport and store the DULCODOS® Pool metering
systems in their original packaging
– Also protect the packaged DULCODOS® Pool
metering systems against damp, exposure to chemi‐
cals and mechanical effects
– Please also observe the operating instructions for
controllers and fittings and other units, such as sen‐
sors, filters, metering pumps ...
Storage temperature: 0 ... 50 °C
Air humidity: < 95% relative air humidity, non-condensing
NOTICE!
If the DULCODOS® Pool metering systems are stored as
an assembly with the sensors, then the storage and
transport conditions must be appropriate for the compo‐
nent with the least resistance to external influences.

6.1 Wall mounting
Secure the metering system perpendicular and upright
on a wall or a stable mounting system.
The metering system should be freely accessible.
Select the mounting height you require so that:
nThe controller's display can be easily read
nThere is still space for maintenance work beneath the in-line probe
housing (100 mm)
nThere is still room for the chemical storage tank (600 mm)
nThe fluid level of the full chemical storage tanks is below the metering
pumps
nThe maximum priming lift of the metering pumps is not exceeded.

6.3.1 Metering system
WARNING!
Possible overdosing
Consequence: Sever damage to health caused by the
used feed chemical.
Measure: The metering pumps with the external control
(2) may only be connected to the pulse frequency output
of the controller if the multifunctional switch (1) is
switched to
[EXTERNAL] . In this case, the metering
pump may not be operated in the manual mode
[10 ... 100] as it may otherwise lead to dangerous over‐
dosing.

NOTICE!
Maximum permissible operating pressure when using a
chlorine sensor
Limit the pressure on the measured water extraction
point to a maximum of 1 bar (at 30 °C) using a pressure
reducer. otherwise the maximum permissible operating
pressure of the chlorine sensor will be exceeded.
Do not allow a back pressure of more than 1 bar
(at 30 °C) to build up at the outlet, otherwise the max‐
imum permissible operating pressure of the chlorine
sensor will be exceeded.
