TABLE OF CONTENTS Thank you for choosing a Walchem EZ Series metering pump. This instruction manual deals with the cor- rect installation, operation, maintenance and troubleshooting procedures for the EZ metering pumps. Please read through it carefully to ensure the optimum performance, safety and service of your pump.
Principle of Operation The EZ series electronic metering pumps consist of a pump unit, a drive unit, and a control unit. The drive unit is an electromagnetic solenoid. When the solenoid coil is energized by the control unit the armature shaft moves forward due to the magnetic force of the solenoid.
FC. Not available with the ADV feature. A Auto Degassing Valve is supplied under the manual air vent valve. Available for the EZ Series in B11/16/21 and C16/21 sizes with –VC/-VE liquid ends only.

INSTALLATION 2.1 Unpacking Open the shipping carton and inspect contents for damage. If any items are missing or damaged contact your local distributor. Pumps are pre-primed with water at the factory. If the application is not compatible with water, drain and dry before use.
Injection Coupling Nut Valve (Air Vent Valve) Point of Injection Coupling Nut Return Line PVC Pipe Tubing Straightener (user supplied) Air Gap Ceramic weight Coupling Nut Foot Valve Figure 4 Connection Tubing 2.3 Supply Tubing The supply tubing run should be as short as possible. For flooded suction mounting, install a shut-off valve with an appropriate tubing connector at the tank outlet.
However, the back pressure by the injection valve can vary and the valve does NOT act as an anti-siphon valve. If siphoning is a possibility, or if pumping downhill into open atmosphere (open tank), a Walchem MultiFunction valve or a separate back pressure/anti-siphon valve must be in- stalled.
Outer Diameter 1/2" 3/8" NPT 1/2" NPT Trim back as needed to fit tee or fitting Figure 7 Injection Valve 2.6 Interlocking Pump CAUTION! Control of pump operation is critical. Operation and chemical addition during no flow situations can create hazardous situations from elevated chemical concentrations and chemical gasses trapped in the line.
3.2 Adjustment and Control 3.2.1 EZ Pumps using the ‘D’ Control Module If less than full output is required, set the frequency to the appropriate percentage of maximum desired. Example: Model EZB21D1-VE has maximum output of 1.5 GPH. Desired output is 1.2 GPH. 1.2 ÷ 1.5 = 0.8 or 80% Set the frequency of the pump to 0.8 x 360 = 288 spm by pushing the UP or DOWN arrow keys.

Programming and Timer Use CAUTION! Before use, check the time and date. Set to the local time and date before programming. Incorrect time/date can result in incorrect operation. Manual Operation From the WAIT menu, pressing the MODE key will enter the manual mode. Pressing SEL will toggle the pump on and off manually.
3.3 Calibration f exact output calibration is required, first prime and adjust the pump as above. Then connect a calibration column to the suction side of the pump. Turn the pump on for one minute and read the amount of liquid pumped from the col- umn.
3.6 Auto Degassing Valve Operation The Auto Degassing Valve (ADV) is an option on select EZ pumps and is added under the standard Manual Air Vent Valve when ordered. It is used primarily in applications where gassing is a problem and pumps can lose prime. Unlike the Manual Air Vent Valve, the Auto Degassing Valve constantly bleeds a controlled amount of volume out of the “Air”...

The MultiFunction Valve is optional on select E-Series pumps and replaces the standard Manual Air Vent Valve when ordered. It integrates the air venting/bleeding functions with a back pressure, anti-siphon, and pressure relief valve. For more detailed specifications of the MultiFunction Valve, see its separate instruction sheet at walchem.com. Air Vent / Bleed Function 1.
MAINTENANCE CAUTION! Before working on the pump, disconnect the power cord, depressurize the discharge tub- ing and drain or flush any residual liquid from the pump head and valves. Always wear protective gear when working around chemicals. 4.1 Diaphragm Replacement Disconnect AC power to the pump and disconnect the suction tubing, discharge tubing, and air vent tubing.
