A SIMPLE METHOD
THE DOSATRON IS COMPOSED OF:
A volumetric
piston
hydraulic
motor driving:
In its backwards and forwards
movement, the motor piston clacks:
a dosingpiston
2 clacks =
1 motor cycle =
1 motor capacity
Once in the
top position
Once in the
bottom position
The speed of the motor is proportional to the flow of water passing through
the appliance.
