INTRODUCTION
1 Introduction
Dear customer,
We are delighted that you have decided to purchase a ViscoTec product. We have no doubt
that this product will meet all your requirements. We wish you trouble-free and successful
operation.
The dosing system consists of the eco-PEN330 dispenser and the eco-CONTROL EC200
dosing control unit or the plug´n´dose dosing control unit.
The eco-PEN330 dispenser is described in this operation manual. A separate operation and
maintenance manual is enclosed with the dosing control unit.

SAFETY
Misuse
Any use other than the stipulated intended use shall be considered as misuse.
This includes
• use outside the permissible operating limits
• use in explosive environments
• use underground
• use outdoors
Misuse also includes the following actions carried out without the explicit written approval of
the manufacturer:
• Conversions and/or extensions
• Use of non-original spare parts (e.g. rotor)
• Repairs carried out by unauthorised companies or persons
• Use of non-approved materials
Misuse is not permissible, and will result in voiding of guarantee, warranty and liability claims.

SAFETY
2.3 Personnel
The operating organisation shall ensure that only appropriately qualified and authorised
personnel work on this machine. It is responsible for ensuring that operators and
maintenance staff possess the necessary qualifications. Personnel must be at least 15 years
old.
All personnel working with or on the machine must have read and understood this
operation manual.
The operating company shall document the operators' and maintenance staff's
acknowledgement of this manual, and shall ensure their compliance with it by means of
regular training.
2.3.1 Operators
Before starting work, the personnel assigned as operators must be adequately instructed
regarding the nature and scope of their duties and the potential risks. Training shall be
conducted on a regular basis (at least once a year). Training shall be conducted after any
technical modifications.

SAFETY
WARNING
Material hazardous to health
The conveyed material may contain constituents which are hazardous to health.
Such constituents may cause serious acute or chronic harm to health if they come into
contact with skin, are inhaled or swallowed.
• Always wear appropriate protective equipment
• Observe the specifications in the safety data sheet for the material
WARNING
Risk of injury from moving components
The machine is driven by an electrical drive unit. These generate very high forces.
Touching the components during operation may result in serious injuries.
• Do not operate the machine unless there is unrestricted visual contact with the moving
component
• There must be no persons or foreign objects in the danger area
WARNING
Pressurised material
Depending on the setting of the machine, the material is conveyed under very high
pressure. If the delivery rate is not adapted to the dosing needle being used,
unwanted spraying of the material might occur. This may result in serious injury.
Defective components can also cause spraying.
• Shut down the machine immediately
• The leak must be repaired by qualified maintenance staff before operation is re-started
10 / 32 eco-PEN330 INST-004578 / B
SAFETY
CAUTION
Splashing material
During initial commissioning and after being refilled, air bubbles in the material could
cause an uncontrollable spraying from the conveying area. This may result in injury.
• Always wear appropriate protective equipment
• Fully bleed the system before start of production
CAUTION
Pointed dosing needle
Depending on its size, the dosing needle can be very thin and pointed.
Carelessness during assembly work can lead to needle stick injuries.
• Carry out assembly work with appropriate care.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION / OPERATION
3 Product description
The dispenser has been developed and tested for precision dosing of materials ranging from
low to high viscosity with extremely high repeat accuracy.
preeflow dispensers are positive displacement pumps. The conveying elements comprise a
rotating part, the "rotor", and a stationary part, the "stator". The rotor, which is in the form of
a type of knuckle thread, rotates inside the stator, which has one more thread turn and twice
the pitch length of the rotor. As a result, conveying areas are produced between the stator
and the rotor rotating inside the stator. The rotor also moves radially within the stator.
The conveying spaces move forward continuously due to the movement. The flexible shaft
used to drive the rotor compensates for the eccentric movement of the rotor and is completely
maintenance-free.
The sealing effect of the conveying elements of the dispenser is dependent on the viscosity
and pressure.
Since the direction of flow is reversible, the material can be sucked back to allow a clean
thread break.
The dispenser can be dismantled very quickly.
Together with the eco-CONTROL EC200 dosing control unit, the dispenser forms a dosing
system which is typically installed in a dosing station. The dosing control unit controls the
required parameters (e.g. dosing quantity, dosing speed, etc.).

OPERATION
4.1.3 Feeding material and bleeding the dispenser for the first time
Preparation
Connect the material supply (feed line, cartridge) to the material inlet (12) of the dispenser.
The dispenser can be bled in one of two ways after the medium has been supplied.
Version A
(e.g. supply via a hose, closed cartridge)
Move the dispenser to a position in which
the end piece (3) points upwards.
3
Connect the drive unit to the power supply
and run slowly until the material escapes
from the outlet nozzle (attached Luer-Lock
needle) without bubbles.
12
Fig. 4
Tip: Connecting a hose can protect the dispenser from being wetted with the medium.
14 / 32 eco-PEN330 INST-004578 / B
OPERATION
Version B
(e.g. open cartridge, dispenser fixed in place and supply of the material under pressure)
Turn the bleed screw (23) 180 degrees so
that the bleed hole (8) is in the position
shown (direction of the drive unit).
8
Pressurise the material.
Feed the material until it escapes from the
bleed hole (8) without bubbles. 23
Release (remove) the inlet pressure on
the material and wait until no more
material comes out of the bleed hole (8).
Close the bleed screw (23) again. 9
Remove any material which has escaped.
Pressurise the material.
Connect the drive unit to the power supply
and run slowly until the material escapes
from the outlet nozzle (attached Luer-Lock Fig. 5
needle) without bubbles.
Tip: Alternatively, the air can also be extracted from the pump area with the syringe (9)
included in the scope of supply.

OPERATION
4.1.4 Calibration
To obtain a precise dosing result, the dosing quantity must be calibrated. This is performed
using the eco-CONTROL EC200 dosing control unit. The exact procedure can be found in
the dosing control unit manual.
NOTE
The supply of material to the dispenser must be ensured before dosing starts.
Dry running may destroy the stator.
16 / 32 eco-PEN330 INST-004578 / B
OPERATION
4.4 Decommissioning
All activities described below may only be carried out by authorised maintenance staff.
Switch off the drive to the dispenser and lock it to prevent it from being switched on again.
Shut down material supply to the dispenser (depressurise).
Relieve inlet pressure via bleed screw.
Remove material supply and seal openings with suitable plug.
Disconnect the power supply to the drive units.
Remove the dosing unit and the drive unit from the holder or system.
Disconnect the dosing unit and drive unit.
Remove the stator, clean and store separately.
Disassemble and clean dispenser.
Store dispenser according to the storage conditions as described in Section 2.8 “Transport
and storage” (page 11).
4.5 Re-commissioning
Re-commissioning is the same as initial commissioning. The same specifications and work
steps apply as described in Section 4.1 “Initial commissioning” (page 12). It must be ensured
that the dispenser is free of medium residues, dust and dirt.
The stator must be installed before recommissioning (see Section 4.1.1 (page 13)).
