Tandem dosing

Menu item: Method

STAT/ADD/DOS General/Hardware

If the check box Tandem dosing is activated for the commands STAT,
ADD or DOS, then a second dosing device can be defined in order to enable
continuous dosing. Dosing is carried out with a combination of two dosing
devices so that the second dosing device is dosing while the first one is being
filled and vice-versa.

However, in order to ensure continuous dosing, the following points must
be taken into account:

Keeping filling times short
Use the highest possible filling rate in order to keep the filling times as
short as possible. Please note the viscosity and density of the liquid.

Filling rate with different cylinders
When you use two dosing devices with different cylinder volumes (dosing
cylinder 2 > dosing cylinder 1), then the minimum filling rate of the larger
cylinder 2 must be:
Filling rate 2

≧ Filling rate 1 • (V

Dosing cylinder 2

/V

Dosing cylinder 1

)

Rule for dosing rate
The dosing rate must not exceed 75% of the filling rate of the smaller
cylinder. This corresponds to the following values (at the maximum filling
rate):
