Installation 1. Notes on Operation Operators and maintenance service staff must read the instruction manual thoroughly before using the prod- ucts. Do not operate the pump system unless all of the contents in the manual are completely understood. CAUTION • Turn off the power supply Working without disconnecting the power supply may cause an electrical shock.
Page 20
Installation 3. Install the pump at the place convenient for the maintenance/inspection works in the future. Securely fix the pump so that the pump can not vibrate horizontally. 4. Use the tube corresponding to the pump suction and discharge port sizes. Securely connect the tube so that liquid can not leak or air can not be sucked in.
Installation 2. Installation CAUTION When you feel danger or abnormality during installation or mounting works, stop works immediately to check its reason. 1) Install pump at place of ambient temperature of 40 deg. C or below and humidity of 40% RH or below (No dew condensation should be in the control unit.) where is easy and convenient for maintenance and inspection works.
Installation 1. Tubing for types VC, V6, PC, VM, FC 3. Tubing Use PVC braided hose or so which corresponds to connection bore of pump. Hose Hose is fixed by hose stopper. Put fitting nut and hose stopper on hose and insert hose end into fitting spacer and then push the hose stopper to the bottom of fitting spacer and tighten fitting nut.

Installation 4. Mounting check valve In case the pump is installed as mentioned below, make sure to install the check valve to avoid over-feeding. 1) In case the suction side liquid level is higher than that of discharge side. (Fig. A) 2) In case the suction side pressure is higher than the discharge side one.
Page 24
Installation Precautions when mounting check valve 1) Install the check valve at the end of discharge tubing. It should be separated the pump by 1 meter or more. CA type check valve 2) CA type check valve can be connected to either tube or threaded pipe of R1/2 and R3/8.
Installation 4. Electrical Wiring 1. Precautions on wiring CAUTION ● Only qualified operator/service staff should be in charge of the related electrical arrangement and control of the power source. Failure to observe this instruction may result in injury to person or damage to assets. ●...

Installation 1) Remove four screws with screw driver to take off terminal box. 2) Connector is press-fit to PCB connector. Remove connector from PCB connector. 3) Remove other cord nut which is not used for wir- ing and take off blind cap and cord gasket from it and put cord nut and cord gasket on wired cord in that order and then insert it through ter- minal box.
Page 28
Installation ● Wiring for analog input operation Analog input operation means the pump operation by input current signal of 0 to 20 mA to change the stroke rate in proportion to 0 to 360 spm. For the wiring, connect the wires to the terminals and fix them by screws.
Operation 1. Preparation for Operation CAUTION • Do not operate the pump with discharge-side valve completely closed. Operating the pump with discharge-side valve fully closed may lead to liquid leakage or pipe rupture. • Do not run pump dry. Dry operation of the pump over a long time (longer than 30 minutes) causes the pump to overheat and the pump unit (pump head, valve guide etc.) to become deformed or the pump head attachment to become loose, which may result in liquid leakage trouble.

Operation Bleeding for types VC, V6, PC and FC Fitting nut 1) Return the discharge side hose to the tank and start the pump. Remove the check valve if it is Remove mounted. check valve 2) Run the pump for 10 minutes for bleeding. 3) When the air is removed and pump head is completely filled with liquid, return the discharge tube to the normal piping.
Operation 1-2. Adjustment of Discharge Capacity Adjustment of the discharge capacity can be done by adjusting the stroke length and by adjusting the stroke rate but basically it is done by adjusting the stroke rate. Stroke length adjustment is an auxiliary way when the stroke rate adjustment is not enough.
Page 33
Operation 3. Adjustment of stroke length (1) Power on the pump to start and adjust the discharge capacity by turning the stroke length adjustment knob. (2) Figure below shows the relation between the stroke length and discharge capacity. Stroke length can be adjusted from 0 to 100 % but actually set the length between 50 and 100 %. Fixed stroke rate Stroke length CAUTION...
