PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION Remove the pump from the packing material and examine it carefully to make sure that no damage has occurred during shipping. If there is any noticeable damage, notify your Dealer. Each pump is supplied complete with: •...
• A solenoid-driven pump • Automatic overheat protection and a built-in LCD display • Alarm output: the alarm of the BL 7916 will be activated if the measured pH value is 2 pH units higher or lower than the setpoint. BL7917's alarm will activate if the mV value is 200mV higher or lower than the setpoint.
The table below shows typical reduction of the flow rate with an increase of pressure. The pump supplied with the system has a capacity of 13.3 LPH (3.5 GPH) at 0.5 BAR (7.4 PSI). BL 7916 / BL 7917 FLOW / PRESSURE BAR (PSI) LPH (GPH) 0.5 (7.4)

To ensure maximum performance, check the voltage at the point of supply to verify that it is sufficient. It is recommended that you install a 1 Amp circuit breaker between the pump and the power supply. This will give additional protection to the internal circuit and provide a convenient way to disconnect the power supply prior to servicing the pump, if needed.

Hose Connections • Cut a long enough section of the hose to reach the suction valve of the pump head from the feed tank. Allow some slack in the hose and be sure it is not kinked or twisted. • Slip a hose connector onto the hose over the head valve and up to the bottom of the threads ensuring it is fully seated.
Page 15
• Repeat the same installation procedure for the hose connections on the discharge end with the injection assembly (HI721004). • Secure the hose so that its movement is minimized when the pump is operating. Excessive hose movement could cause the connectors to loosen and result in leakage.

EXAMPLE OF TYPICAL INSTALLATIONS HOSE PIPE PUMP CONNECTION FILTER / RESEVOIR FOOT VALVE MANUAL CHECK VALVE SHUTOFF VALVE LEGEND Flooded Suction Installation Suggested Installation for consis- tent output when using a low stroke rate. Also suggested for highly viscous chemicals. A slight suction pressure avoids self-priming problems, especially with high viscosity liquids.
Page 17
Downhill Installation Suggested installation when pumping from one container to another, each at different levels and with only nominal pressure. START-UP At start-up, purge all chemical gases and air from the suction tubing, valves and pump head. Start the pump. When all the air or gas is vented, the solution being metered will appear in the output line.
• Unscrew and remove the transparent front panel cover and gasket seal for access to the terminals. • Remove the protective plastic plate covering the terminals by removing the 2 screws on both sides of the plate. TERMINAL CONNECTIONS BL 7916...

With this value the pump works at 100% of the rating when the difference between measure and setpoint is more than 150 mV (BL 7917) or 1.5 pH (BL 7916). It goes into proportional dosing for values less than the above.

The contact is rated at 2 amps at 220VAC. No power is supplied through the system and it is an open/closed contact only. With BL 7916, the contact can be selected to be closed when the alarm is activated and open when the alarm is off or viceversa. Short the middle terminal located on the driving circuit inside the controller section with the NO or NC terminal (see above).

• Adjust the SET FINE trimmer to display the exact setpoint value. • Once the desired setpoint is achieved, move the display selector switch back to MEASURE. ACID OR BASE SELECTION (BL 7916 only) If an acid chemical is to be dosed, move the ACID/BASE switch to ACID. This means that the pump will dose when pH measurements are higher than the setpoint.
H CALIBRATION H CALIBRATION H CALIBRATION BL 7916 only: • Ensure that the display selector switch is set to MEASURE and dip the electrode tip in a neutral buffer solution (pH 7.01). • Adjust the OFFSET trimmer to display 7.01 on the LCD.

Leakage at the connections: • Be sure that the hose is fully seated and hose connectors are tight. • Be sure that valves are tight and O-rings are in place. Leakage around the pump head: • Be sure that the valves are tight and O-rings are in place and the head screws (hex bolts) are tight.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE After 50 hours Tight the pump head screws with a torque force of 2.5 Nm (22" lbf). After 12 months It is recommended to replace HI721102, HI721103 (suction and discharge valves assemblies) as well as the O-rings. The LDPE hose can also deteriorate over time and, for safety reasons, should also be changed with HI720 032.

These bubbles can be removed by "shaking down" the electrode as you would do with a glass thermometer. If the bulb and/or junction are dry, soak the electrode in HI 70300 Storage Solution for at least one hour. For refillable electrodes**: If the refill solution (electrolyte) is more than 2½...

For refillable electrodes**: Refill the electrode with fresh electrolyte (HI7071 for single junction or HI7082 for double junction electrodes). Allow the electrode to stand upright for 1 hour. Follow the Storage Procedure above. CLEANING PROCEDURE Soak in Hanna HI 7061 General Cleaning Solu- General tion for approximately ½...

• Slow Response/Excessive Drift: Soak the tip in Hanna Solu- tion HI7061 for 30 minutes, rinse thoroughly in distilled water and then follow the Cleaning Procedure above. • For ORP Electrodes: polish the metal tip with a lightly abrasive paper (paying attention not to scratch the surface) and wash thoroughly with water.
TAKING REDOX MEASUREMENTS TAKING REDOX MEASUREMENTS TAKING REDOX MEASUREMENTS TAKING REDOX MEASUREMENTS TAKING REDOX MEASUREMENTS Redox measurements allow the quantification of the oxidizing or reducing power of a solution, and are commonly expressed in mV. Oxidation may be defined as the process during which a molecule (or an ion) loses electrons and reduction as the process by which electrons are gained.
Page 31
Reducing pretreatment: immerse the electrode for a few minutes in HI 7091. Oxidizing pretreatment: immerse the electrode for a few minutes in HI 7092. If the pretreatment is not performed, the electrode will take signifi- cantly longer to respond. As with pH electrodes, gel-filled redox electrodes are more suitable for industrial applications due to lesser maintenance requirements.
