- Inspect the unit before each use. Tighten any loose connections. Be sure the hose is not cracked or frayed and shows no sign of swelling. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
- Do not use the unit if damaged or broken.
- Do not exceed maximum air or fluid pressure for the unit (refer to Technical Data).
- Do not use flammable chemicals or hydrocarbons.
- Use only chemical products that are formulated for this type of application and compatible with unit materials and pump seals. For information about your chemical product, request a chemical Safety Data Sheet (SDS) from your chemical supplier.
- Depressurize unit (as described in the After Use Instructions) when not in use and before disassembling.
- Always flush the unit with fresh water when switching from an alkaline to an acid or an acid to alkaline.
- Before performing any maintenance on this unit, disconnect the unit from the electrical power source and depressurize.
- Make sure all electric power cords are located so that they cannot be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
- Pump, valves, and containers must be properly grounded when handling flammable fluids and whenever discharge of static electricity is a hazard.
TIMER ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
The TR120DS-A is an adjustable repeat cycle timer with the ON time operating
first. ON and OFF times can range from 1 second to 511 minutes.
To set the timer:
- Starting with the OFF time, move the top dip switch to the left for MIN (minutes) or to the right for SEC (seconds) to select the desired time interval.
- The next 9 dip switches will be used to control the total active time. To the left is active and to the right is inactive. Combine the numbers of active dip switches to achieve the desired time. The increments are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256.
- Repeat the above steps for the ON time setting.
- The timer indicator light will appear red when the unit output is off. The indicator turns green when the output is on.

Instructions
Installation Instructions:
|
---|---
-
Remove all components from packaging.
-
Select an area to mount the control box.
Note: The control box should be mounted to a vertical wall. We recommend mounting the control box at a height of 6 feet or less. The chemical suction line must reach the bottom of the chemical container. The bottom of the chemical container should not be positioned higher than the bottom of the control box. -
Attach the control box mounting feet to the back of the control box, using the four screws provided in the parts package.
-
Mount the control box to the wall using four of the screws and plastic anchors provided in the parts package.
Note: To drill holes for the plastic anchors, use a 5/16 inch drill bit. -
Install quick connect elbows (QFSEL14) to outlet fittings on bottom of control box.
-
Mount the fog nozzle assemblies in desired locations.
-
Run 1/4 inch tubing from control box outlet to the fog nozzles.
-
Install pressure relief tubing to the quick connect closest to the wall.
Note: this line should be dispensed back into the chemical container. -
Set the timer for the desired on time and off time, as described in the Timer Adjustment Instructions.
-
With the power switch in the OFF position, plug the unit into a GFCI protected 120VAC power outlet.
-
Follow all instructions from chemical manufacturer and place the end of the chemical intake line into container of pre-diluted chemical solution.
-
Place the priming valve line and pressure relief line in the chemical container.
Operation Instructions:
|
---|---
- Prepare the area to be fogged.
- Verify the ON/OFF times on the timer are set per the application requirements.
- To activate the unit, turn the power switch (TS2, TS2PLATE, TSBT12) to the ON position. The unit will begin cycling through the run and delay time intervals set on the timer, beginning with the run time.
- With the pump running, open the priming valve until the solution begins to flow through the line. One solution is flowing through the line close the priming valve.
- Begin to adjust the pressure relief valve until the liquid gauge reaches below 150 psi.
Note: If the pump is making a hammering sound the pressure relief will need to be opened further. Slowly open the pressure relief valve until the pump is no longer hammering.
Troubleshooting Instructions:
|
---|---
- Check the chemical suction line and strainer for debris or damage. Clean or replace as needed. To prevent damage to the unit, the strainer (FV2) must always be used.
- If the pump is not drawing chemicals, repeat steps 4 and 5 from Operation Instructions.
- If the pump is hammering loudly, adjust the pressure relief valve until the pump equalizes, around 75 to 100 PSI.
- If the product is not being dispensed through a fog nozzle, disassemble the nozzle and inspect for any debris or build-up.
- If the unit is not turning on but power is supplied to the unit, confirm the timer setting is correct.
