GENERAL INFORMATION CLASSIC SERIES SINGLE HEAD ADJUSTABLE PUMP THREE BASIC SUBASSEMBLIES Motor Feed Rate Control (FRC) Pump Head Use subassemblies in field for quick replacement. USA and Canada 800.683.2378, International 904.641.1666.
INSTALLATION POINTS INSTALLATION DIAGRAM FOR SINGLE HEAD PUMP Always use Rain Roof for outdoor use or if metering pump is subject to washdowns. Rain Roof slides into wall mounting bracket (no tools necessary). On/Off Switch (under roof, not visible this view) Vertical Wall Mounting Bracket (requires 2 screws) Grounded Power Outlet;...
INSTALLATION POINTS VERTICAL INSTALLATION Mount the pump vertically and use the spill recovery to drain chemical back to the tank in the event of tube failure. This will help prevent chemical from collecting in the tube housing and reduces spillage on the floor. The pump motor is ventilated and water intrusion can cause motor damage.
INSTALLATION POINTS SUCTION AND DISCHARGE LINES The suction line should be 3" from the tank bottom to prevent picking up sediment which can cause blockage in the check valve, duckbill and discharge line. Allow slack in both the suction and the discharge lines so the pump tube fittings can flex.
INSTALLATION POINTS COMPRESSION SEAL The suction and discharge lines are installed to the pump tube fittings with a compression type seal consisting of the connecting nut and ferrule. The beveled end of the ferrule should face the tube fitting and the suction and discharge lines should bottom into the tube fitting.

PUMP TUBE PUMP TUBE BASICS The tube is the workhorse of the pump. It is perishable and will eventually stop functioning from natural wear or when it reaches the end of its service life. Indications of the end of service life are: •...
PUMP TUBE VISUAL REFERENCE A diamond pattern that forms where the tube presses against the tube housing indicates excessive back pressure. Excessive back pressure can be caused by any blockage, a clogged duckbill or when the system pressure exceeds the pump tube pressure rating. An oval pattern indicates worn rollers and/or the pump tube has reached the end of its service life.
PUMP TUBE CONDITIONS THAT REDUCE TUBE LIFE IMPROPER TUBE HANDLING • Not following factory tube replacement instructions. • Storing tubes in high ambient temperatures or long term exposure to direct sunlight weakens tube material. • Prior to installation, pre-stretching, lubricating the tube and/or roller assembly or pinching during installation, compromises the tube material.

MOTOR MOTOR The motor has a cylindrical rotor with shaft that is encased within a magnetic coil. When power is applied to the coil, the rotor rotates. The rotor’s directional rotation is determined by the orientation of the copper shaded poles on the coil. The helical end of the rotor engages the series of gears in the gear case.
MOTOR CAUSES OF MOTOR MALFUNCTION LIQUID INTRUSION The motor is fan cooled and needs proper ventilation while protecting it from water intrusion. Corrective Action Mount the single head pump vertically with pump head downward and use the rain roof in outdoor installations, in areas subject to wash downs, or in moist environments. CHEMICAL VAPORS The motor won’t be able to rotate freely if the coil, rotor and bearing are rusted or corroded.
