Intended use

The Collomix AQiX water dosing system is intended for use by professionals or trained personnel on constructi on sites for the precise additi on of water for mixing building chemical products (such as mortar, plaster, screed, concrete, fillers and the like).

It is used to precisely meter amounts of water.

The water dosing system may only be used with clear freshwater at a water temperature of up to 40^ C.

The Collomix AQiX water dosing system is not designed for industrial use.

It is not permitted to use the meter with salt water, chemicals, foodstuff s, spirits, highly flammable and explosive substances as well as compressed air. Using these substances may destroy the instrument.

The operating temperature must be between +5°C and +50°C. Do not expose the instrument to direct sunlight for longer periods of time.

The water pressure in the line must be between at least 2 and a maximum of 6 bar so that the instrument works fl awlessly.

Please note that this instrument is not a calibrated meter. Fluctuations can be caused by factors such as varying water pressure, etc.

Safety information

WARNING: Read all safety information and instruc-

tions. Failure to observe the safety information and instructions may result in injuries or damage to the instrument.

Store these instructions for the future.

The instrument may only be used by persons familiar with the operating instructions and the applicable regulations regarding occupational safety and accident prevention.

For safety reasons, children and adolescents under the age of 16 as well as persons who have not familiarised themselves with this operati ng manual may not use this product.

Persons with restricted physical or mental abilities may only use the product if supervised or instructed by a competent person.

Children must be supervised in order to ensure that they do not play with the product.

Never use the instrument if you are ti red or ill or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication.

ATTENTION!

Do not use in freezing conditions. Freezing water will destroy the instrument.

Only connect the supply hose to the provided connection, not to the water outlet!

Only intended to be used with the suitable hose couplings with 34 " thread.

Avoid tensile loads: Do not pull at the connected hose.

Assembly/commissioning

The AQiX water dosing system is set to the unit of "litres" ex works.

The instrument is delivered with a standard 12 " hose connection. This can be unscrewed and replaced with a different tap connection, such as with a bayonet coupling.

Standard hose couplings with 1/2" or 3/4" hose connection can be used as a quick-release or bayonet coupling.

Connect the water hose to the meter. The water hose may not be pressurised.

Only connect the hose to the hose coupling. No hose may be connected to the water outlet (7).

IMPORTANT: venting

After every connection made to the water hose, first make sure that the air can escape from the instrument.

- Press the "START/PAUSE" (12) button to switch on the instrument.

- Set the display to "0" with the "0.00 - Man." (10) button.

- Keep holding the "START/PAUSE" (12) button until the water flows out without any interruption.

Operation

Switching on the instrument:

The AQiX water dosing system is switched on using the "START/PAUSE" (12) button. The unit first appears in the display and then the last set quantity.

Setting the metering quantity

Adjust the metering quantity using both keys (11) “+” and “-”. The water quantity can be set in increments of 0.1 litres. Keep the button depressed to advance quickly.

Start dosing:

Press the "START/PAUSE" (12) button to start the metering.

You can interrupt the metering process. Press the "START/PAUSE" button to do this. Pressing the button again starts the metering process where it was interrupted.

Storing a metering quantity

Frequently used metering quantities can be saved by pressing the "M1" / "M2" (8+9) buttons. Set the desired quantity value with the "+" and "-" button. Then hold "M1" / "M2" for 2 seconds until the value in the display flashes. Press "M1" / "M2" to call up the stored value. It will appear in the display

Manual metering:

Press the "Man/0.00" button (10). Then press "START/PAUSE" (12). The water will run for as long as you hold down the button. The dispensed quantity of water is shown in the display.

Converting the unit of measure:

The water dosing system can be used with three different units of measure: Litres, quarts and US gallons.

To switch between them, hold the "Man/0.00" button for 5 seconds until 0__ appears in the display. Set the desired number for the respective unit of measure using "+" and "-". Confirm each digit with the "START/PAUSE" button. Finally press Play twice. The instrument switches off and changes the mode.

Value 100 = litres | 200 = quarts | 300 = gallons

You can hold the instrument in your hand for metering or hang it on the mixing bucket or on the mixing bucket of a mixer.

Care and maintenance

Clean equipment: Keep the	instrument clean and remove any dirt immediately. Clean the instrument with a damp cloth and a mild cleaning detergent (soap). Do not use any cleaning agents containing solvents.
Changing the batteries:	To change the batteries, open the battery compartment (3) cover using a screwdriver. Remove the old batteries. Insert the new batteries (AA) in the battery compartment according to the labelling. Remove the rubber seal from the cover and clean it. Do not damage the seal. We recommend lubricating the seal with silicone grease. Reinsert the rubber seal into the groove of the cover, ensuring the seal fits exactly. Before screwing the cover back on, make sure that the rubber seal is not crushed. You can tell that a seal is not properly seated as the gap in the cover is not parallel. Place the cover so that it is level and screw it back into place with the 3 screws. If the seals are not inserted correctly, this may impair the leak-tightness of the instrument. Do not reuse damaged seals.
Replacing the hose connection:	Loosen by turning counter-clockwise Place the new hose coupling with seal on the thread and tighten in the clockwise direction
Cleaning the screen:	There is a particulate screen in the water supply (5) that holds back larger particles in the supply water. It is recommended to clean the screen from time to time. Unscrew the hose connection as described above. Use pliers to grab the screen at the protruding screen clip and pull it out. Clean the screen under flowing water and re-insert it. Screw the hose connection back on.
Back-flushing:	There is also a screen before the water outlet (7). If the amount of water decreases significantly, this needs to be cleaned. The hose must be connected to the water outlet only for this reason and this reason only. At the same time, the second screen at the water supply (5) must be removed (see above). Then flush the instrument backwards to remove the deposits. Then disconnect the hose and re-insert the screen at the water supply.
Water filter: The use of a pre-filter is recommended to supply the AQiX with water. (mesh size 0.08 - 0.1 mm)
