Second, electromagnetic flowmeters detect the flow by electrically measuring the velocity of the liquid, which makes them independent of viscosity or density of the fluid measured. They are extremely accurate using the standard calibration number. SureFire still recommends you perform a catch test to verify the system is properly installed and configured.

Hydraulic Pump Will Not Turn Turn hydraulics off, go to the SureFire PWM valve and use the manual override (red knob) on top of the electric coil to manually open the valve (Manual Override UP = valve fully open). There may be dirt in here that needs to be cleaned out before you can turn and raise the override.

It is made to protect centrifugal pumps that can be harmed quickly if they are dry. This is not a problem for SureFire diaphragm pumps. To get to Target Rate quicker on startup, set the PWM Startup % so the pump starts at or near where it will be running.

The plumbing components of a SureFire system are rated at 100 PSI or above. On an electric pump system, the pump capacity decreases as the pressure increases. Our standard Tower pump has an internal 70 PSI bypass. With an electric pump, we like to see pressures from 10 to 30 PSI.
& Parts Winterization SureFire recommends flushing your fertilizer pump and complete system with adequate amounts of water first. Next, use RV antifreeze to winterize your system by pumping an adequate amount through all components. At the beginning of the next season, begin with water to verify the system is in working order with no leaks.
Be sure the 100 PSI Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) is installed and functioning so system pressure will be kept under 100 PSI. Check hoses, hose clamps, and liquid fittings regularly and repair or replace loose connections. 396-3815Y1 SureFire PumpRight for Raven RCM Revised 12/04/2019...
