1.2. Storage In general the Quattroflow pump is delivered operational and packaged. If the unit is not installed right away, proper storage conditions are important for a trouble free operation later. The pump has to be protected from wetness, coldness, dirtying, UV-radiation and mechanical influences. The following...
2. Description of the QF 1200S pump 2.1. Appropriate use The Quattroflow 1200S is a 4-piston Diaphragm pump, which is mainly used to pump water-like fluids that are typically handled in research-, pilot plant- or production facilities of the pharmaceutical, biotech, food or cosmetic research centers or plants.
The direction of flow can be adjusted by turning the pump chamber in 90° steps. The Quattroflow 1200S is self-priming and can run dry. Inside the pump chamber there are no rotating parts that might cause heating up of the product or shed particles.
2.4. Compact models with integrated controller Quattroflow 1200S pumps can be delivered without or with separate control box. In addition there are compact models (code CV resp. HT) with integrated controller available. 2.4.1. CV – Compact model (230V) The compact model CV (with 230V motor only) is equipped with a 5° eccentric shaft and achieves a flow rate of 10 –...
2.4.2. HT – Compact model (100-240V) The compact model HT (100-240V) is equipped with a 5° eccentric shaft and achieves a flow rate of 6 – 1200 l/h (1.6 – 317 gph). Operation of a QF1200S-CV via the control panel: LED EXT Display rpm (max.
2.5. Cleaning (CIP) Depending on the products in contact with the pump and given requirements the cleaning procedure needs to be adapted accordingly. It is the responsibility of the user to verify the cleaning efficiency. Safety rules and safety measures like protective glasses, gloves and protective clothing have to be followed and used when working with chemicals like sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
3. Safety These operating instructions contain basic hints to be observed during installation, operation and maintenance. Therefore, prior to mounting and commissioning, these operating instructions must by all means be read by the fitter as well as the pertinent expert personnel/customer and must always be available at the place of installation of the pump.
Please pay attention to the further safety regulations. 3.7. Unauthorized reconstruction and spare part usage The use of non-original Quattroflow spare parts or not authorized accessories and reconstructions lead to the lapse of the warranty immediately. When operating such a pump, damages of properties and/or persons cannot be excluded..
Make sure that the slots for the cooling air are not blocked. Due to the versatile possibilities to use the Quattroflow pump it is highly recommended to check case by case if the pump will be the right tool for the specific application.

Quattroflow pumps can lead to bruises when lifting, sinking or assembling them. Appropriate accessories and safety equipments are to be used. Big and heavy modules have to fixed and secured to lifting gears when transporting/replacing them. Disconnect mains before doing any maintenance! The housing of the control box or the motor is to be opened only by skilled personnel.
4. Maintenance/Servicing of the QF 1200S Due to the robust construction the Quattroflow pump are widely maintenance-free. The ball bearings do not need any extra lubrication. The diaphragms, valves and o-rings should be checked in regular intervals and if needed they has to be replaced (Service kit diaphragm-valves-o-rings: PSKITQF12MU).
4.1. Replacement of diaphragm, valves and o-rings The replacement of the diaphragm and the valves can be conducted by the operator. The following drawings describe it step-by-step (maintenance kit PSKITQF12MU). In case of bursting diaphragms by overpressure we advice also to change the bearing unit (PSKITWLC123 or PSKITWLC125 resp.
4.1.2. Assembly of the pump chamber Turn the pump chamber until you see the screw of the clamping ring and fix it with 5mm hex key with a torque value of 6 Nm. Pay attention to the following torque values: Image 10: Bolts pump chamber 10 Nm (7.4 lb-ft) Image 10: Bolts diaphragm cover housing 5 Nm (3.7 lb-ft) Image 12: Bolt clamping ring 6 Nm (4.4 lb-ft)
