Two week timer for dosing pump

ProMinent Fluid Controls (UK) has introduced a highly sophisticated two-week timer option for its gamma/L precision dosing pump. The novel design brings greater versatility compared with conventional timers and this integrated system may ultimately replace remote programme control of conventional timers.

The timer offers daily, weekday, weekend, weekly or two-week settings for operation of the pump, and the operating times may be set from one second up to two weeks. The timer can not only switch the pump on and off, but can also activate one or two optional relays. This opens up the possibility to, for example, activate an agitator either before or after dosing. It also has an event programming mode. This will allow up to 80 different timed events to be carried out, allowing complex sequences of pump and external device control to be set up.

The timer is installed within the IP 65 housing of the pump, so no additional space is required, and can be programmed at the pump using the integral control keypad; alternatively it may be programmed on a PC or laptop computer and the program downloaded to the pump via a special cable.
