If the fluid pressure drops below the vapor pressure, cavitation will occur, negatively impacting the performance of the pump. If you suspect the possibility of cavitation, contact your Milton Roy Representative for assistance. As the diaphragm starts forward on the discharge stroke, the pressure immediately rises inside the liquid end.
Accuracy ±1.5% of 100% rated flow between 10% and 100% of rated flow Adjustment Lockable micrometer is adjustable from 0% to 100% while pump is running or stopped Lubrication Oil bath Temperature Ambient and Liquid: 50℃ Maximum -10 ℃ Minimum (Metal Liquid End) 10 ℃...
Equipment should be stored 12 inches or more above the ground. If equipment is to be shipped directly from Milton Roy into long term storage, contact Milton Roy to arrange for factory preparation.
3. For all electrical equipment, place packets of Vapor Phase Corrosion Inhibitor (VPCI) inside of the enclosure, then place the entire enclosure, with additional packets, inside a plastic bag. Seal the bag tightly closed. Contact Milton Roy Service Department for recommended VPCI materials. HANDLING OF PUMP To avoid damaging the pump while moving or installing a Series G pump, follow the instructions below.
To minimize viscous flow losses when handling viscous liquids, it may be necessary to use suction piping up to four times larger than the size of the suction connection on the pump. If in doubt, contact your nearest Milton Roy representative to determine the necessary pipe size. General Piping Considerations ●Use extreme care in piping to plastic liquid end pumps with rigid pipe such as PVC.
There are a number of ways to create an artificial pressure, such as by installing a back pressure valve. (Please contact Milton Roy for recommendations to increase back pressure in slurry applications.). When pumping water-treatment chemicals directly into boiler drums, use one liquid end assembly for each boiler drum.
Back Pressure Valves A Milton Roy Back Pressure Valve should be installed in the discharge line near the pump to ensure sufficient discharge head pressure for proper pump metering action. Normally, the valve should be located near the pump; however, back pressure valves for large pumps with long and extremely small discharge lines may have to be installed near the point of discharge into the process (to minimize siphoning tendencies).
With switch and gauge Series G Model B pump also is available with an option that includes tubing to a pressure gauge and switch as shown in figure 6-18 In the event of a diaphragm leak the process fluid is trapped inside the system and pressure switch (760) is tripped to set an alarm or shutdown.
SECTION 3 OPERATION INITIAL START-UP Check that all mounting bolts are tight, piping is installed properly, and the discharge line is open. Check oil drain plug for tightness. Remove the oil fill cap and fill the pump casing until level is between the markings on the oil fill cap dipstick, (approximately 3 quarts (2.8 Liters )).

This method is recommended for hazardous liquids because it eliminates operator contact with the liquid. Milton Roy test-tube Calibration Columns are available for convenient and accurate calibration of any pump. The pump can also be calibrated by collecting and measuring pumped liquid at the pump discharge port. It may be necessary to create discharge head at the liquid take off point so that the pump will operate properly.
A Materials Safety Data Sheet must accompany all returns. All inquiries or parts orders should be addressed to your local Milton Roy representative or distributor. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Milton Roy pumps are carefully designed, manufactured, assembled, and quality tested to give reliable service with minimal maintenance.
Check Valves Milton Roy Company recommends that check valve balls, seats, gaskets, and o-rings be replaced on a annual basis. If highly corrosive material (acids, slurries, etc.) is being pumped, some applications may require more frequent replacement. To determine if check valves need maintenance, disassemble the check valves following the instructions in the "Corrective Maintenance"...

easily from the other liquid end parts. 2. Unscrew the ball guide (424) from the liquid end. 3. Screw the union nut part way (one or two turns) onto the end of the ball guide that has the seat in it. Be sure the union nut is on loosely.

Drop the ball into the curved inner chamber end of the ball guide. 2. Place a new gasket on the rim of the ball guide, and sit the seat on top of the ball guide, trapping the ball and gasket between the seat and ball guide.

please make sure the reagent and the transported process liquid are compatible with each other. GB1800 1800 Liquid End Plastic Check Valves: Reassembly Liquid End Plastic Check Valves: Reassembly Refer to Figure 6-11 1. Fit new o-rings into the relevant position of valve body, valve seat and limited position plate. NOTE: To assure a tight, leak free seal, new o-rings should be used each time the check valves are disassembled.

the diaphragm assembly. If you plan to replace both, refer to the" Replacing the Oil Seal" instructions, and disregard the instructions below. These instructions are intended for use only if the diaphragm assembly is being replaced independent of the oil seal. Before beginning diaphragm replacement, make sure that all shut-off valves are closed and all pressure is bled from the liquid end.

bled from liquid end. When replacing the oil seal, the diaphragm assembly must be removed first. For ease of service, it is recommended that the oil seal be replaced in conjunction with the diaphragm assembly. Therefore, the instructions below include the "Diaphragm Assembly Replacement " instructions, and can be used for oil seal replacement and diaphragm assembly replacement.
