Maintenance an calibration
The following points are important to sustain
correct dosing of etergents. Note that
these two tasks should be performed by an
authorised DeLaval service engineer.
• The tubes in the peristaltic pumps should
be replaced at least two times a year.
• The dosing volume (P6-P8) of the
detergent pumps should be checked
every third month. The dosing capacity
(P32-P34) may need to be adjusted.
Starting cleaning or rinsing

manual mode.
2. Remove any cow that might be in the

The milking automation system consists of mod-
ules with different functionalities interconnected
in a milking automation network to each other
through a local interconnetion network (LIN) bus.
Up to three milking point input/output modules
(IOM) are connected on the same local intercon-
netion network bus. The input/output module
controls the milking process in one milking point.
The button module (BM) is connected to the
DeLaval milking automation MA200 (Test installation)
