    TABLE OF CONTENTS Thank you for choosing a Walchem EH or EZ Series metering pump. This instruction manual deals with the correct installation, operation, maintenance and troubleshooting procedures for the EHB, EHC and EZ model metering pumps. Please read through it carefully to ensure the optimum performance, safety and service of your pump.
  • Page 4: Introduction

    All tubing must be securely attached to the fittings prior to starting the pump (see Section 2.3). Only use Walchem tubing with your pump. Tubing should be shielded to prevent possible injury in case of rupture or damage. UV resistant tubing should be used if the tubing is exposed to UV light.

  • Page 11: Installation

    INSTALLATION Unpacking Open the shipping carton and inspect contents for damage. If any items are missing or damaged contact your local distributor. Pumps are pre-primed with water at the factory. If the application is not compatible with water, drain and dry before use. Be sure to remove caps from fittings before attaching tubing.

  • Page 13: Supply Tubing

    Supply Tubing The supply tubing run should be as short as possible. For flooded suction mounting, install a shut-off valve with an appropriate tubing connector at the tank outlet. Cut a length of tubing from the coil supplied and install between the shut-off valve and the pump inlet fitting.
  • Page 14: Discharge Tubing

    Discharge Tubing Cut a length of tubing long enough to go from the pump to the application (injection) point. Additional tubing can be ordered from your distributor. Avoid sharp turns or bends and hot surfaces. Routing tubing through rigid pipe such as PVC pipe is recommended for long runs and/or as protective shielding against corrosive chemicals.
  • Page 15: Electrical

    However, the back pressure by the injection valve can vary and the valve does NOT act as an anti-siphon valve. If siphoning is a possibility, or if pumping downhill into open atmosphere (open tank), a Walchem MultiFunction valve or a separate back pressure/anti-siphon valve must be installed.
  • Page 16: Operation

    OPERATION Priming Install the pump as described above. With the pump turned on, set stroke length at 100% and frequency at 100%. If the pump is equipped with an air vent valve, open the knob 1/2 turn. Liquid should move through the suction tubing and into the pump head.
  • Page 17: Calibration

    Calibration If exact output calibration is required, first prime and adjust the pump as above. Then connect a calibration column to the suction side of the pump. Turn the pump on for one minute and read the amount of liquid pumped from the column.

  • Page 20 Digital Mode In digital mode, the pump accepts a non-powered pulse signal (contact closure type or solid state device) from a flowmeter or other instrument. The pump can be set to divide pulses by a factor of 1 to 999; or in multiply mode, 1 input pulse can produce 1 to 999 pump strokes.
  • Page 21 For Y-Control Modules: Connection is the same as above, except the POSITIVE terminal is Terminal # 6 and the GND is Terminal #8 Sensor Power The control circuit of the Y Module has the ability to provide 12 VDC at up to 20 mA to power a Hall effect sensor or similar device.
  • Page 22 Analog Mode In analog mode the pump will accept a milliamp signal and produce a pump speed proportional to the signal level received. The input resistance of this signal is 250 Ω . The pump’s response can be fine-tuned by variable set points to meet system requirements.
  • Page 23 Settings The pump’s response to a 4 to 20 milliampere signal can be adjusted to meet almost any need. The adjustment is done by selecting two points. A signal level and a pump speed are entered for each point. These two points determine a straight line and the pump speed resulting from any given signal will be defined by that line.
  • Page 24 Press EXT to operate the pump in external mode. The pump speed will now be determined by the level of the milliamp signal as shown in the graph. The stroke length can be adjusted manually to set the volume pumped per stroke. INPUT SIGNAL, mA...

  • Page 29: Auto Air Vent Valve Operation

    Auto Air Vent Valve Operation The Auto Air Vent Valve is an option on select EH and EZ pumps and replaces the standard Manual Air Vent Valve when ordered. It is used primarily in applications where gassing is a problem and pumps can lose prime. Unlike the Manual Air Vent Valve, the Auto Air Vent Valve constantly bleeds a controlled amount of volume out of the “Air”...
  • Page 30: Multifunction Valve Operation

    MultiFunction Valve Operation The MultiFunction Valve is optional on select EH and EZ pumps and replaces the standard Manual Air Vent Valve when ordered. It integrates the air venting/bleeding functions with a back pressure and anti-siphon valve. Air Vent / Bleed Function 1.
  • Page 31: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE CAUTION: Before working on the pump, disconnect the power cord, depressurize the discharge tubing and drain or flush any residual liquid from the pump head and valves. Always wear protective gear when working around chemicals. Diaphragm Replacement Disconnect AC power to the pump and disconnect the suction tubing, discharge tubing, and air vent tubing.
