3 Transport
3.1 Packaging
The type of packaging depends on the individual mode of shipping. If not separately contracted, the
packaging is in accordance with the rules and regulations of Walther Systemtechnik GmbH. This rule is in
accordance with the Federal Association for Packaging HPE.
3.2 Tasks before Transport
The following has to be done before transport:
Disconnect all power lines.
The actual transport of the incomplete device and its individual parts requires special care in order to prevent
damages from external forceful impact or careless on- and off-loading. Depending on the mode of
transportation, suitable transport and load securing has to be selected. The incomplete device will be aligned
and leveled by appropriate fastening elements.
4 Description of Function
The dosing pen VMS-13-EH is operated by a manual trigger/actuation. The spraying material will be supplied
from a pressure container or via a pump to the valve. The needle will be pulled back and releases the
material which is then discharged from the nozzle. The actual application image can be adjusted via the
nozzle or the nozzle extension, as well as the material pressure and the needle stroke settings.
4.1 Designated Purpose
CAUTION
The use of other media can cause functional failures, damages or even the destruction
of the device.
The VMS-13-EH dosing pen is a high-precision device which will be a long-term reliable tool if the following
notes are observed
The function of the needle is as follows:
Open by using the external controls and close after turn-off of external controls through the spring pressure.

5 Initial Start- up
The valves can be used in any position; the distance to the application area depends on the desired
application width.
5.1 Mounting and Installation
IMPORTANT
We recommend installing a maintenance unit to the control air.
Connect the WALTHER Dosing Pen VMS-13-EH to a pressure container or a pump via the material
connection (M6 IG); connect to the control air supply (min. 6 bar) via the hose connection (15). When using
an adapter nozzle, install the required attachment. Set material pressure at the container or the pump (max.
pressure: 20 bar). The material will now be released when you use the external controls.

6 Operation
6.1 General Information
This device may only be operated if the safety-related equipment is permanently effective and not suspend-
ed during operation or altered in its intended effectiveness.
6.2 Operation Instructions / Operating Conditions
CAUTION
Never point the jet at people. The wearing of eye protection is strongly recommended.
The spraying process can create noise depending on the air and fluid pressures used.
Ear protection should be worn, if required.
WARNING
Danger caused by flammable, harmful fluid. Always follow the safety instructions on the
container or the safety data sheet for the fluid.
WARNING
Solvents and detergents from the chlorinated hydrocarbon group must not be used
because for example: 1,1,1 trichloromethane or methylene chloride can explosively
react with aluminum or galvanized parts.
The valves of the VMS-13-EH series generally operate with a control air pressure of 3 - 6 bar. Control air
pressure and material pressure should be closely correlated.
IMPORTANT
Accident prevention directions will be strictly followed when applying high material
pressures. Please strictly follow the following instructions when planning and
constructing application systems!
Each spraying valve must be equipped with its own pressure regulator for atomizing air.
In case several spraying valves are supplied by one and the same material pressure tank, these
valves must not spray simultaneously.
The supply route for the material between material pressure tank and spraying valve must not exceed
2 m.
If the pause time is a multiple of the spray time, the valve must be sprayed free in a separate location
or the spray valve should be operated several times to optimize the application.
After standstills of 15 min. and more, the valve must be sprayed free by pressing the switch 3 to 5
times.
For longer standstills, the material can remain in the valve, if it remains under pressure (no contact to
outside air).
6.3 Needle Stroke Settings
The quantity of the spray medium can be adjusted to the individual requirements by turning the adjustment
screw (13).
Function:
Right turn: Reducing quantity of the spray medium
Left turn: Increasing quantity of the spray medium
