Ambic Equipment Ltd - OptiFlow™ Operating Instructions

PRESSURE LINE

The Pressure Line (N) must exit the Outlet Tee (C) vertically as shown. Use clips (M) to secure the tubing

against the wall. Route the tubing into the parlour. Cold conditions will slow the flow of chemical so select

a route which is protected from frost. Take care not to exceed the minimum bend radius. A Straight

Connector (O), and Elbow Connectors (P) are supplied if required.

APPLICATORS (Fig. 1, 5)

Figure 1 shows the two versions of applicator that are available - 'Top Load' or 'Bottom Load'. Note the

version you have and install accordingly. The system comes with three applicators; extension kits are

available if more are required.

The maximum length to which the coiled tube will stretch is 1.8 metres, so Tee pieces should be positioned

along the parlour to enable all cows to be dipped easily without over-stretching the coils. Determine the

position of Tees (Q) and strap loosely to a suitable support using Cable Ties (H). Cut suitable lengths of

the ½" OD tubing to connect the Tees (Q), again, loosely strapping with Cable Ties (H) as you go.

Attach coils (R) and applicators (S) as shown in Figure 5. Seal open end of last Tee with a Blanking Plug,

O-ring and Nut (T). Finally, once positions are correct, fully tighten Cable Ties (H). Do not over-tighten on

the tubing and avoid sharp bends.

INITIAL START UP

PPE, including eye and skin protection should be used during this process. If at any point a leak is

found, release the system pressure by first closing the pump Vacuum Tap (I), and then depressing

an Applicator Trigger (U) until flow slows to a minimum - the issue can then be addressed.

Turn on the vacuum pump and open the Vacuum Tap (I). The power unit will automatically start, and you

should hear a regular 'clicking' from the Directional Valve (DV). Chemical will be drawn from the Chemical

Container (D), flowing with each click of the pump. The chemical will enter the pump through the Inlet

Elbow (B) and then exit through the Outlet Tee (C). As the chemical flows into the parlour depress the

trigger on the first applicator until the chemical flows into the cup. Repeat this process for each applicator

until all the air is removed from the system.

If the pump does not prime, briefly attach vacuum to the outlet or place some chemical in a small container

and raise it above the level of the Inlet Elbow (B).

Important: To prevent air from entering the system, replenish chemical supply before it runs out.

DIPPING with OptiDipper™ is carried out by depressing and holding the Applicator Trigger (U) (Fig. 5)

until chemical flows into the Applicator Cup (V). To avoid wastage DO NOT FILL THE CUP RIGHT TO THE

BRIM, as this will result in chemical overflowing the cup when applied to the teat. Use the applicator to dip

each teat carefully into the cup, ensuring all teats are evenly coated with chemical. Depress the trigger

briefly between teats to re-fill the cup with chemical. The flow rate can be controlled by selecting one of the

supplied restrictors. Unscrew the lance(s) and insert the restrictor(s) as shown on the instructions. No

restrictors are not required for very thick dips.

END OF MILKING When the main vacuum supply is turned off the system will remain pressurised unless

an applicator is held open. It may be necessary to regularly wash each applicator with warm water to avoid

the cup becoming blocked with congealed chemical.
