KML - SERIES Installation 4.3 | BEST PRACTICES Peristaltic pumps are self-priming and do not allow backflow up to rated pressure. No valves are required in inlet or discharge line, however may be useful in some circumstances: » In case of a pumphead or tube failure, users can install a check valve between the pump and the discharge pipework to prevent pressurised fluid from backflowing.
KML - SERIES Installation 4.4 | PRE OPERATION CHECK LIST CHECK LIST Pumps have been completely installed in their final location, piping has been connected, and motors are energized to allow running of the pumps. Proper electrical voltage is supplied and connected to pumps and controls Remote signal amperage and voltage is within pump limits.
