INSTALLATION OF ALL MASTER/SLAVE MODELS
Installing the EASI-Dose
Plus
dosing system is very easy and requires minimal set up, apart
from connecting power cables and silicone hosing.
1.
Place the EASI-Dose
Plus
unit in a convenient, stable position (do not mount it above the
aquarium or in any position where it may accidentally
fall into water or be splashed by
water)
where it can be easily accessed for maintenance.
Useful Tip:
We recommend using the EASI-Dose
Plus
shelf to allow easy and convenient
installation (shelf sold separately - please see back page for available accessories and spares).
2.
Plug the power supply (PSU) into the PSU port (10) on the back of the unit ensuring there
is a drip loop in the power cable (see diagram above).
3.
Carefully measure and cut the silicone hosing (3) to the required lengths. Please ensure
that the lengths of hosing are long enough to connect your liquid storage containers to the
inlet(s) (4) on the dosing pump head(s) (1) and to connect the outlet(s) (5) to your
desired
dosing location, without any kinks or sagging. Additional silicone hosing and hosing
connectors may be required, depending on individual installation requirements.
4.
Each dosing pump head (2) is controlled separately and, depending on model, is numbered
from 1 - 4 from left to right. The inlet (4) is on the
left
of the dosing pump head (2), and
this
is where your chosen liquid is drawn in. The outlet (5) is on the
right
and this is where the liquid is dispensed from.
5.
Insert the non return valve (6) with the domed section pointing
upwards into the inlet (4) of the dosing pump head (2) (see photo).
6.
Connect one end of your cut silicone hosing to your liquid storage
container and connect the other end to the non return valve (6)
ensuring there are no kinks or sagging.
Useful Tip:
We recommend you use an EASI-Dose
Plus
dosing
container (sold separately - please see back page for details).
