SUMMARY
The Streamline Blend Centre is a dilution unit that should give trouble
free operation if installed and maintained correctly.
The Streamline Blend Centre provides a safe, controlled and economic
method for dilution of up to four chemicals.
They are available in two versions.
Version 1 is 4 litres a minute (used for filling spray bottles).
Version 2 is 14 litres per minute (used for filling buckets).
It is not suitable for feeding hoses longer than 1 metre, brushes, piped or
valved systems.
These simple proportioners required no electricity and are driven by the
water flow.
The unit is self-priming and gives an accurate and adjustable dilution if
fed with a consistent water pressure.
The unit has inbuilt push button control valves for operation.

Note: The unit is approved for direct connection to mains water supply by the Water Council.

Holchem guarantee the unit for 12 months from the date of delivery. The guarantee covers material defects,
manufacturing defects or incorrect assembly. The guarantee does not cover wear and tear, misuse, use of incompatible
chemicals, damage caused by frost or incorrect water supply.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
When the dispense button is pressed water passes through the inlet nozzle forming a fast moving stream of water.
The collector catches this stream of water and a partial vacuum is created. This flow of water is used to suck
chemical up into the injector.
Restricting the flow of the chemical into the injector controls the injection rate; this is done by using a metering tip.
To stop the flow of water the dispense button is released.

SAFETY
1. The equipment should not be used prior to proper installation and commissioning.
2. The equipment should only be used by personnel trained in its use and in the use of the chemicals being
dispensed.
3. The equipment should only be adjusted when the unit has been flushed with water and then the supply has
been isolated from the equipment.
4. Operators must wear suitable personal protective equipment for the chemical being dispensed.
5. Chemicals must never be mixed either prior to or after dilution.
6. The unit must be made safe prior to any maintenance:
a. Flush chemical out of equipment by placing chemical pick-up tube in clean water and running the unit.
b. Isolate water supply from the equipment.
c. If unit has failed and the chemical cannot be flushed then suitable personal protective equipment must be
worn for disassembly.

SERVICES REQUIRED
1. Isolated water supply.
2. Water pressure, flow and temperature requirements given in equipment specification.

INSTALLATION.
1. Water Authority regulations state that no chemical dilution equipment may be connected directly to the mains
supply. A break in the supply using a type "A" air gap is required.
This unit complies with this regulation and has been approved for direct connection to main supply by the Water
Council.
2. All parts of injector must be above maximum liquid level of the neat chemical product.
3. The compatibility of the materials of construction of the dosing unit and the chemical must be checked.
4. If the line pressure is above the rated pressure then a protection device such as a pressure regulator must be
fitted.

INSTALLATION \ COMMISSIONING
1. Attach water supply to ¾” female tap thread connector (see diagram).
2. Fix unit to wall using holes in mounting holes and suitable fixings.
3. Fit coloured metering tips into chemical pickup hose tails (see table).
4. Fit chemical suction tube to hose tails.
5. Attach chemical tube to chemical strainer and weight.
6. Fit outlet hoses to outlet hose tails.
7. Hose length must not exceed 0.2 mtrs version 1
hose length must not exceed 1.2 mtrs version 2
8. Turn on the water and check for leaks.
9. Immerse the chemical pickup tubes in the chemicals to be injected.
10. Press the dispense buttons individually and the unit will self-prime.

ADJUSTING STRENGTH.
IMPORTANT - USE NO TOOLS!
1. Place chemical pickup tubes in clean water and turn on Proportioner until all chemical flushed from system.
2. Turn off water supply.
3. Remove chemical pickup tube from chemical hose tail.
4. Change metering tip in chemical hose tail.
5. Refit chemical pickup tube onto chemical hose tail.
6. Check strength and readjust if required (steps 1 to 6).

MAINTENANCE
1. No routine maintenance required.
2. Recommend chemical suction tube and outlet hose be replaced annually or when showing signs of wear.

∗ In hard water areas, scale may form inside the discharge end of the eductor, as well as in other areas of the unit
that are exposed to water. This scale may be removed by soaking the eductor in a descaling solution (deliming
solution). To remove an eductor located in the cabinet, firmly grasp valve and unthread eductor. Replace in same
manner. Alternatively, a scaled eductor can be cleaned (or kept from scaling) by drawing the descaling solution
through the unit. Operate the unit with the suction tube in the descaling solution. Operate the unit until solution is
drawn consistently, and then flush the unit with the suction tube in the descaling solution. Operate the unit until
solution is drawn consistently, and then flush the unit by drawing clear water through it for a minute. Replace
concentrate container and out suction tube into concentrate.
