Use only the hoses and connecting fittings supplied with the MP10UH and accessories from QED - DO NOT MODIFY OR SUBSTITUTE THE FITTINGS OR HOSES. Do not supply the MP10UH with compressed gas at pressures greater than 500 PSI. Be certain of the gas supply source pressure before you connect it to the MP10UH. -

Page 8: Introduction/Quick Start
Introduction/quick Start Introduction / Quick start The MP10UH Micro Purge Basics Controller is used to operate QED Well Wizard bladder sampling pumps to purge and sample ground water.The MP10UH has specific design features to make MicroPurge sampling easier. These features include: Manual Mode Operation Directly set pump refill and discharge cycle times for deep well applications. - Page 9 Introduction/Quick Start Quick Start: Connect the pump air supply hose to the fitting label-edAIR OUT on the MP10UH. Connect the black air supply hose to a compressed air or gas source and connect it to the fitting labeled AIR IN on the MP10UH. Supply up to 300 psi compressed air or gas to the controllerurn the controller throttle until the gauge reads appropriate pressure for the depth of the sample pump approximately, 0.42 psi per foot of pump depth.

Page 10: Bladder Pump Operation In Low-Submergence Applications
In wells in which this water column height is 5 feet or less, the pump is considered to be in a low-submergence application. QED sampling bladder pumps fill by hydrostatic pressure. As the inside of the pump's bladder fills with water, the bladder expands. This filling and expanding of the bladder is referred to as the "refill"... -

For deep wellsmanual mode (MN on the display), is useful for manual-ly setting refill and discharge times on the controller as in traditional controllers (like previous model QED pump controllers).An example of the MP10UH in Manual Mode is shown in Figure 2. -
Page 13: Sample Collection
Operation Sample Collection The PAUSE key ( ) is used to freeze the controller action to allow the user time to collect a sample or carry out other steps that might be difficult if the controller continued to automatically cycle and cause the pump to produce water. While the controller is cycling, pressing the PAUSE key causes the controller to immediately enter the Hold state. -
Page 14: Flow Throttle Use
Operation Flow Throttle Use The flow throttle is used during sampling to regulate the pressure applied to the pump. Turning the throttle clockwise increases the pressure and counterclockwise decreases the pressure. The pressure gauge shows the approximate pressure applied to the pump. This allows easy adjustment of the throttle giving pressures that will produce gentle, non- turbulent flow (normally 5-10 psi higher than the minimum requirement of 0.5 psi per foot of pump depth). -

(CPM and refill and dischargetimes you have set).This ID should be noted alongside the well identification (QED provides custom weatherproof ID badges for purchasers of our MP series of well caps) for quick setting of the optimal controller settings on the next visit by using t he MP10UH in ID mode. - Page 16 Operation With previous bladder pump controllers, a leading low-flow technique called for selecting the number of pump cycles per minute, the adjusting the bladder pump discharge and refill times to achieve the desired volume per cycle.These adjustments were inter-related, complex, and varied by operator.

Operation Here is an example of the use of the UP (faster) key: Refill Discharge Press (sec) (sec) 10.0 Each of the 165 possible ID settings corresponds to a unique ID that is associated with CPM, refill and discharge time values. For typical usage, only the UP/DOWN arrow keys are required to set flow, and the ID number is provided for easy, direct return to past settings. -

Operation Flow Throttle Use The flow throttle is used during sampling to regulate the pressure applied to the pump. Turning the throttle clockwise increases the pressure and counterclockwise decreases the pressure. The pressure gauge shows the approximate pressure applied to the pump.This allows easy adjustment of the throttle giving pressures that will produce gentle, non-turbulent flow (normally 5-10 psi higher than the minimum requirement of 0.5 psi per foot of pump depth). - Page 19 Operation Figure 6 MP10UH MP30 Use MP10 MP10UH MP30 Normal Static Level Maximum Point of Drawdown Figure 7 MP10UH MP30 Use Connector For Optional Mp30 Drawdown Control MP10UH MODEL asics CONTROLLER Compressed Gas MicroPurge Mode Quick Guide 1.

- Page 20 Operation The MP10UH and MP30 are connected with a cable (see Figures 6 and 7). The MP30 is switched into mode and the water level probe is lowered to the desired maximum draw- down level. Limiting the maximum drawdown depth limits the differential head driving flow into the well and the velocity of the water flowing into the well from the surrounding formation important in MicroPurge sampling.
-
Page 21: Id Mode
Operation If the MP30 is signaling the MP10UH too frequently, the operator can slow down the pump flow rate by using the DOWN key (effectively increasing the pump refill time period). MP30 probe position may also be varied to provide a buffer zone for your draw-down limit and gauge rate of pumping effect on water level in the well. -

Operation In this mode the CPM and UP, DOWN keys function differently. The CPM key becomes a key used to scroll between the one's and the ten's digits of the ID.The UP and DOWN keys are used to change the ID number (the MP10UH has IDs that range from 1-165) up or down in value. Sampling in ID mode is the same as explained, above, for MP mode. -
