Page 11: Nameplate And Marking
1.8 NAMEPLATE AND MARKING The PULSATRON X bears a standard rating nameplate on which it is possible to read, apart from functional data, all data required for universal identification. Pumps carrying the WQA certified to NSF/ANSI 61 & 372 marks are so certified when they include the De-gassing or PVDF pump head. -
Page 12: Storage Instructions
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS 2.1 SHORT TERM (0 - 12 MONTHS) The PULSATRON X should be stored in a temperature and humidity-controlled environment. It is preferable to keep the temperature constant in the range of 32° to 104° Fahrenheit (0° to 40° Celsius). The relative humidity should be 0 to 90% non-condensing. -
Page 13: Materials Of Construction
The pump stroke rate is controlled by the circuit and is changed by turning the rate knob. mechanical stroke length is controlled by the stroke length knob. Adjusting these controls allows the output of the pump to be varied. 4.2 MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION The wetted materials (those parts that contact the solution being pumped) available for construction are FPP (glass filled polypropylene), PVC, CSPE, Viton, PTFE or FTF, 316 Stainless Steel, PVDF, Ceramic and Alloy C. -
Page 14: Pump Mounting
5.2 PUMP MOUNTING Typical pump mounting arrangements are shown below. Important: Injection point must be higher than the top of the solution supply tank to prohibit gravity feeding unless suitable backpressure is always present at the injection point. Installation of an anti-siphon valve will prohibit gravity feeding. For Wall or Shelf mounting, connect the suction tubing/pipe to suction valve of chemical pump. -

Page 26: Disassembly / Re-Assembly
For optimum performance, cartridge valves should be changed every 6-12 months. Depending on the application, more frequent changes may be required. Actual operating experience is the best guide in this situation. Repeated short-term deterioration of valve seats and balls usually indicates a need to review the suitability of wetted materials selected for the application. -
Page 27: Valve Replacement
Adjust stroke length only when pump is running! Adjust stroke length back to 100% for easier priming and place pump back into service. 8.3 VALVE REPLACEMENT Flush pump to clean any chemical from pump head. Disconnect power from the pump, release system pressure, and disconnect tubing or piping. Unscrew valve cartridges and discard. - Page 28 4.
