    Why is water flowing back into the concentrate container of my Dosatron Water Pump?
    • F
      Frederick LoweAug 3, 2025
      Water flowing back into the concentrate container of your Dosatron Water Pump can be caused by several issues. It could be due to contaminated, worn, or missing check valve parts, which you should clean or replace. Another cause might be that the piston motor has stopped; refer to the Motor piston section for troubleshooting. Also, check the suction height and reduce it if it exceeds 4 meters. Finally, inspect the suction tube for air leaks, ensuring the nut and suction hose are tightly connected.

      If the motor piston of your Dosatron Water Pump isn't starting or stops injecting, there are a few potential causes. First, ensure the unit has been properly bled, referring to the 'Putting into Order' section. Check that the bypass is fully open, consulting the 'Incorporated bypass' section. If the maximum flow is exceeded, reduce the flow and restart the unit. If none of these steps resolve the issue, there may be damage inside the unit.

      Michelle DuranAug 12, 2025
      Injection leaks in your Dosatron Water Pump can stem from several causes. Start by checking for air suction, ensuring all nuts on the dosing parts are correctly tightened and inspecting the condition of the suction hose. Make sure the suction hose is properly bled to eliminate any air inside. If the flow exceeds the maximum, reduce it to prevent cavitation. Lastly, worn components like the plunger seal or injection stem may be the culprit, requiring replacement.
