Page 4: Sampling Pump
Sampling Pump A Well Wizard® sampling pump is an air-actuated bladder pump that you permanently position in the well. Page Well Wizard® Installation and Operation Manual Rev. A 2-1-2018... - Page 5 Sampling Pump As figure 1 shows, you normally position the pump inlet midway in the screened section of the well, suspending it by two tubes that supply air to the pump and convey the water sample to the well cap. Whenever possible, pumps are shipped al- ready preassembled to the tubing and the well cap assembly.

Page 6: How A Bladder Pump Works
How A Bladder Pump Works The bladder pump has two alternating cycles (refer to figures 2 & 3). Discharge Cycle During the discharge cycle, air forced into the space between the pump body and the pump bladder squeezes the water inside the bladder into the exit/entrance holes of the fill rod. - Page 7 How A Bladder Pump Works Refill Cycle During the refill cycle, with no air pressure holding it down, the water pressure pushes the bottom check ball up, allowing the water to reenter the bladder chamber. The bladder expands as it refills with water. Simultaneously, the top check ball is forced down and seals because of the force of the water pressure above it from the water in the discharge tubing, this...

Page 8: Pump Tubing/Inlet Screen/Well Cap
An inlet screen can protect the bladder in your Well Wizard pump by preventing sand from contacting the bladder. If you install a screen on your dedicated Well Wizard bladder pump, QED warranties the pump for a full 10 years. Well Cap You fit a well cap to the top of the well casing to suspend the pump and tubing. -

Flow Cell The MP20 is QED’s optional flow cell. The MP20 lets you know when it’s okay to sample - generally saving you from spending a lot of time and from removing large volumes of purge water. The MP20 signals when stabilization has been achieved for selected water parameters. -

Keep this tag for each pump you install. It’s your proof that the pump is contaminant free - if you need to, you can call QED with the serial number to find out which lab certified the pump. -
Page 12: Installing The Inlet Screen
Installing the Inlet Screen Install the Inlet Screen Well Wizard bladder pumps have a 10 year warranty that is valid only if you use the appropriate inlet screen. There are two types of inlet screens: One that you thread onto the pump inlet for 1100 series pumps, and one that you secure with set screws for 1200 and 1300 series pumps. -
Page 13: Installing The Sample Pump
Installing The Sampling Pump Caution: Make sure that you don’t bring the tubing or other pump components in contact with the ground or any other surface. It’s often helpful to spread out a polypropylene tarp next to the well during installation. Still wearing the latex gloves, if you have a protected well cap, mark any necessary information - such as well ID and depth - on the label inside the well cap. -
Page 14: Installing The Sample Pump With Bulk Tubing
Installing A Pump With Bulk Tubing This section is for you if you ordered your Well Wizard® components and tubing unassembled, The following sections tell you how to assemble the components and tubing. Getting Ready It’s important to not contaminate pump components. Doing so can degrade the quality of the samples obtained using your Well Wizard system. - Page 15 Installing A Pump With Bulk Tubing Note: If you have difficulty installing the screen, use the Allen wrench to loosen the set screws a little. 3. Using the Allen wrench, lightly tighten each of the set screws, then make sure the screws have engaged the groove.

Page 16: Bladder Pump Operation In Low Submergence
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”... -
