11.5 Zero point adjustments
11.5.1 Adjusting the zero point for system pressures up to
100 bar
The zero point of the dosing pump is factory-set to a slightly lower
counter-pressure than the rated pressure of the pump. If the
operating counter-pressure deviates considerably from this value,
an adjustment of the zero point will ensure more precise values.

Fig. 30
Adjusting the zero point
1. Fit a measuring device on the suction side, for instance place
the suction line in a graduated measuring beaker.
2. Set the dosing flow to 15 %.
3. Remove the cover (1l) from the stroke-length adjustment knob
(L).
4. Use a screwdriver to loosen the locking screw (2l) by
approximately 2 turns.
5. Switch on the pump.
6. Slowly turn the stroke-length adjustment knob towards the
zero point until the dosing (the liquid level falls) stops in the
measuring device.
7. Switch off the pump.
8. Set the scale ring (4l) to zero.
– Loosen the screw (3l) in the scale ring (4l) slightly using an
hexagon key, M3.
– Turn the scale ring (4l) until both "0" are the same on the
scale and scale ring.
– Tighten the screw (3l).
9. Depending on the application, tighten the locking screw (2l) so
that the stroke-length adjustment knob can still be turned/
cannot be turned any more.
10.Replace the cover (1l).
