Depending on the input water pressure you may have to wait several minutes to verify the water does
not rise above the Mid-Level Sensor. Fill in the GranuFlo® Batch Production Record Form, pg 31.
7. Remove the GranuFlo Dissolution Unit II Small
Access Lid and add granules as seen in the adjacent
picture. This minimizes the amount of particulates
launched into the air while adding granules to the
tank. If clumping in Dry Acid Product is present,
then the Large Access Lid can be used to load the
Tank. However, If you have large sized clumps, then
it would be best to break the clumps into a smaller
size before adding granules into the tank. Large
clumps have the ability to break the Mid Level
Sensor. (See Appendix B for Dry Acid Mixing
information, page 38).
8. After adding all bags of GRANUFLO® Dry Acid,
reinstall Large and Small Access Lids, then press the
Dissoluton START button. The GranuFlo Dissolution
Unit II will proceed to the MIX Operation.
9. During the MIX Operation, the solution is mixed for a period of thirty-five
(35) minutes allowing the granules to dissolve. The GranuFlo Dissolution
Unit II will then automatically step to the DEAERATION Operation.
10. The DEAERATION Operation is two (2) minutes during which the entrapped
air is allowed to separate out of the solution. Upon completion, the
GranuFlo Dissolution Unit II will automatically step into the FINAL FILL
Operation and the Final Fill Light will illuminate.
