4. Setup
Pump Head Installation
The DIP1500 features a quick-release pump head for easy tube installation. Follow these steps:
- Locate the toggle lever on the pump head.
- Turn the lever over to release the top pump cover. Carefully remove the cover.
- Spread the pump tube smoothly and position it within the pump head.
- Place the pump cover back onto the pump head. Apply external force to press it in firmly.
- Turn the toggle lever back to secure the pump cover. The tubing installation is now complete.
Initial Power-Up
Connect the 24V 1.9A power adapter to the DC 24V input port on the back of the pump. Ensure all connections are secure before proceeding.
5. Operating Instructions
Basic Knob Functions
The DIP1500 features a rotary encoder knob for controlling pump functions:
- Press the knob: Starts or stops the pump.
- Rotate the knob: Adjusts the pump speed. The current speed is displayed on the digital LED screen.
- Directional toggle: A separate switch allows you to change the direction of the pump's rotation, enabling reverse flow.
Working Modes
The pump supports various working modes:
Manual Mode
In manual mode, you directly control the pump's start and stop functions using the rotary encoder knob. Press to start, press again to stop.
Filling Mode (Timed Operation)
For timed dosing, use the filling mode:
- Press and hold the rotary encoder until the top segment of the first digit on the digital display flashes. This indicates you are setting the working time.
- Rotate the knob to adjust the desired working duration.
- Short press the knob again. The bottom segment of the first digit will flash, indicating you are setting the pause time.
- Rotate the knob to adjust the desired pause duration.
- Short press the knob to confirm settings and return to the main display. The pump will now operate in a cycle of running for the set working time and pausing for the set pause time.
6. Advanced Control Options
The DIP1500 offers extended control capabilities via its 9-pole airline connector on the rear panel.
Foot Control
The included foot switch can be connected to the 9-pole airline connector for convenient start/stop control. Refer to the pinout diagram on the pump's rear panel for correct connection (pins 4 and 5 for Foot Switch + and -).
Analog Control (0-5V or 4-20mA)
The pump supports external analog signals for speed regulation. Connect your analog control device to the appropriate pins on the 9-pole airline connector:
- 0-5V Analog Control: Connect to pins 6 (0-5V -) and 7 (0-5V +).
- 4-20mA Analog Control: Connect to pins 8 (4-20mA -) and 9 (4-20mA +).
The pump's speed will correspond to the input voltage or current. For example, with 0-5V control, 0V will stop the pump, and 5V will run it at maximum speed. Similarly, for 4-20mA control, 4mA will stop the pump, and 20mA will run it at maximum speed.
RS485 Communication (Modbus)
For advanced integration, the DIP1500 supports RS485 communication using the Modbus protocol. Connect to pins 2 (485 B) and 3 (485 A) on the 9-pole airline connector. Consult the detailed Modbus communication protocol documentation (not included in this manual) for programming and control instructions.

8. Maintenance and Care
Tube Replacement
The silicone pump tube is a consumable item with an approximate lifetime of 200 hours. Regular inspection and timely replacement are crucial for maintaining optimal performance and preventing leaks. The quick-release pump head design facilitates easy tube changes. Refer to the "Pump Head Installation" section for steps on opening and closing the pump head.
Cleaning
Periodically clean the exterior of the pump with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the housing. Ensure no liquids enter the internal components of the pump.
Storage
When not in use for extended periods, store the pump in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
9. Troubleshooting Guide
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Kamoer DIP1500 pump.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Pump does not start | No power, loose connection, pump in paused state. | Check power adapter connection. Ensure power outlet is functional. Press the rotary knob to start the pump. |
| Incorrect flow rate | Speed setting is too low/high, worn pump tube, calibration needed. | Adjust speed using the rotary knob. Inspect and replace pump tube if worn. Perform flow rate calibration (refer to advanced settings in full manual). |
| Liquid leakage from pump head | Improperly installed pump tube, damaged pump tube, pump head cover not secured. | Reinstall pump tube correctly. Replace damaged pump tube. Ensure pump head cover is firmly pressed and lever is secured. |
| Pump runs in wrong direction | Directional toggle switch is in the incorrect position. | Toggle the direction switch to the desired flow direction. |
