Introduccin

En el desarrollo de este proyecto se analiz que existen diversos problemas en la funcionalidad del papel durante el proceso de enrollado y en el rea de conversin, es decir, el papel se revienta con gran facilidad. El problema de reventadas y conceptos como tronadas, patinadas, bobinado flojo, orilla floja, se deben a una gran combinacin de variables que pueden afectar en el proceso de fabricacin de papel tissue. Al estudiar el proceso de fabricacin de papel tissue, encontramos que uno de los procesos fundamentales, es el acondicionamiento del secador Yankee, esto es, suministrar una mezcla de qumicos a travs de una regadera, para formar una capa que recubre la superficie del secador yankee, la cual permite tomar la hoja de papel de la zona de prensado a la zona de secado, adems de poder lubricar el yankee y disminuir la friccin entre la superficie del secador y las cuchillas de corte, crepado y limpieza, y poder despegar la hoja para realizar el procesos de enrollado. Se realiz el anlisis porqu, de la falta de acondicionamiento del secador yankee e identificamos que el sistema de dosificacin de qumicos para realizar la mezcla del recubrimiento, se encuentra en condiciones desfavorables, las bombas se encuentran en condiciones ambientales expuestas a altas temperaturas, con una ubicacin de alta inseguridad, la operacin de las bombas para el control de los flujos qumicos se realiza de manera manual. Por lo que dentro de este proyecto se realiza la propuesta de automatizacin de lazo abierto de los flujos qumicos para el recubrimiento del secador yankee. La automatizacin del acondicionamiento del yankee se realiz a travs del control con el que cuenta la planta actualmente, el cual es el Total Plant Solution (TPS) de Honeywell. El desarrollo del proyecto, es controlar los cambios de dosificacin de los qumicos a travs de la Interfase Hombre Mquina del TPS. Esto es mediante una seal de 4 20 mA que manejan las bombas dosificadoras de cada qumico, y visualizarlas en la HMI de control para que la ejecucin del control sea ms rpida y efectiva y as disminuir las prdidas de produccin por falta de acondicionamiento del secador yankee.

Capitulo I Marco Terico. 1.1 Descripcin general del proceso de fabricacin de papel tissue. Materias primas (Fibras) Todo papel se produce con fibras de origen vegetal (celulosa), las que luego de ser dispersadas en una mezcla acuosa, se entrelazan en un proceso de formacin en hmedo y luego se secan para formar una hoja continua la cual es enrollada para poder luego ser procesada en la conversin de productos finales. Las fibras pueden tener distintos orgenes tales como madera de pino, eucaliptus, lamos y otros, as como de subproductos de otras fibras vegetales tales como la caa de azcar. Estas pueden obtenerse como fibras vrgenes (celulosas), las cuales tpicamente pueden ser de fibras largas provenientes del pino o fibras cortas provenientes de distintas variedades de eucaliptus. Otro origen de la fibras para el proceso de fabricacin de papel son las Fibras Secundarias o papeles viejos para reciclar los cuales contienen la celulosa con la cual fueron hechos originalmente ms otros elementos extraos a la celulosa que se agregaron para su uso final tal como recubrimientos plsticos, corchetes, adhesivos y lacas, tintas, etc., y que deben ser removidos en el proceso. Preparacin de las Pastas Las fibras ya mencionadas deben ser seleccionadas, preparadas y mezcladas de acuerdo a las caractersticas y usos que se requieran para cada producto especfico; as un papel para toallas de cocina, por ejemplo, tendr una mayor proporcin de fibras largas y un tratamiento de estas fibras que le otorgue una buena resistencia y absorcin , mientras que un pauelito de papel tendr una mayor proporcin de fibras de eucaliptus y un tratamiento de baja intensidad, para otorgarle una mxima suavidad . Las fibras son dosificadas y mezcladas con agua en una especie de juguera gigante llamada Pulper, donde son disgregadas formndose una pulpa que luego es procesada de acuerdo al origen de esas fibras. En el caso de las fibras vrgenes, que no contienen impurezas, estas pasan por unos filtros muy simples para retirar piedrecillas o contaminantes menores que pudiesen haberse adherido durante su transporte, y son enviadas directamente a los estanques de alimentacin de la Mquina Papelera para ser luego inyectadas a esta, solas o en mezcla con otras fibras.

INGENIERA EN CONTROL Y AUTOMATIZACIN

En el caso de las Fibras Recicladas, luego de su disgregacin en el pulper, estas son procesadas en distintos equipos y etapas para retirar las distintas impurezas o elementos extraos que acompaan a las fibras: depuracin centrfuga para eliminar elementos pesados tales como clips, corchetes y arena ; depuracin en coladores presurizados (perforaciones y ranuras de distintos tamaos) para eliminar trocitos y grumos de plsticos , adhesivos, etc.; lavado y flotacin para eliminar tintas y cargas minerales . Una vez que las fibras han sido depuradas de los elementos extraos, la pulpa o pasta, est en condiciones de ser alimentada sola o en mezcla, al proceso de fabricacin del papel (mquina papelera). Fabricacin del Papel (Mquina Papelera) En la mquina papelera se procesa la mezcla escogida de las pastas ya descritas y se transforma en un gran rollo de papel (Jumbo Roll); si bien los conceptos generales de las mquinas para distintos tipos de papeles son similares, una mquina papelera tissue tiene caractersticas especiales ya que debe producir papeles muy livianos y que sean crepados para otorgarles la flexiblidad, suavidad y absorcin que requiere el producto final. Estas caractersticas se obtienen en la mquina con los siguientes procesos consecutivos y simultneos:
Formacin : Consiste en inyectar la mezcla de agua y fibras (pasta ) sobre una o ms mallas sin fin, en movimiento, donde gran parte del agua es retirada, dejando una trama de fibras que forman una hoja continua, pero todava bastante hmeda. Prensado: La hoja hmeda es transferida, siempre en movimiento, a un pao (especie de alfombra sin fin), que la transporta hacia las prensas, que son rodillos perforados (1 o 2) los cuales presionan la hoja contra un enorme cilindro secador (Yankee), extrayndole una gran cantidad de agua por este efecto. Secado: El secado final de la hoja se efecta con esta adherida al cilindro secador (Yankee), como combinacin del efecto del contacto con su superficie a mas de 100C (el yankee es calentado internamente con vapor a presin), y del soplado por su otro lado de aire caliente a 500 C por una campana o capota envolvente que rodea al Yankee. Todo este proceso dura slo un par de segundos ya que el papel viaja sobre el Yankee a una velocidad cercana a los 100 kilmetros por hora. Crepado y Enrollado: El crepado es un proceso clave para otorgar a la hoja de papel tissue caractersticas de flexibilidad, suavidad y absorcin que la diferencian de los papeles lisos y consiste en micro arrugas a travs de toda la hoja que se obtienen mediante una lmina crepadora que separa la hoja del Yankee en movimiento para que sta quede libre para ser enrollada en la ltima parte de la mquina; como la enrolladora gira a una menor velocidad que el cilindro Yankee, la hoja tiende a permanecer contra la lmina, generndose as las arrugas o crepado. La hoja crepada es finalmente enrollada

generndose una bobina de grandes dimensiones (tpicamente de 2 metros de dimetro y 2 toneladas de peso) a la que se le denomina Jumbo.

1.1.1 Descripcin del proceso de secado. En una mquina de papel tissue de alta velocidad, el secado por evaporacin se transforma en un proceso de mucha trascendencia, porque es un solo secador, aunque el papel es de peso base muy bajo.

Figura 1.3 Ubicacin del secado por evaporacin Sistema Yankee

Una mquina de papel que utiliza un solo secador (el yankee) para secar el papel, puede diferenciarse de la que utiliza multi cilindros, por lo siguiente: a.- El yankee cumple la funcin de secado en una sola superficie. b.- Algunos grados de papel, como el tissue, son muy dbiles cuando est la hoja hmeda, y el yankee proporciona un excelente soporte para la hoja, pudindose utilizar aire a altas velocidades.

1.1.2 Descripcin del proceso de crepado. El yankee suele tener tres cuchillas: 1.- Cuchilla para separar la hoja del yankee, mientras se cambia la cuchilla de crepado 2.- Cuchilla de crepado. 3.- Cuchilla de control de espesor del recubrimiento del yankee.

Figura 1.4 Ubicacin de Cuchillas para el proceso de crepado

El crepado imparte una cantidad tremenda de energa mecnica sobre la estructura de la hoja rompiendo y explotando los enlaces y arrugndose para dar las caractersticas de la hoja. Esta energa da calibre y suavidad.

Influencia del recubrimiento del Yankee en las labores que se realizan sobre su superficie a.- Evita el desgaste acelerado de la cuchilla b.- Facilita la operacin de crepado. Importancia de homogeneidad en el recubrimiento del yankee Para mantener una adhesin correcta de la hoja de papel en toda la superficie del yankee, para: a.- Una ptima calidad b.- Una ptima eficiencia en la operacin de la mquina de papel. En el proceso de acondicionamiento del Yankee se realiza la preparacin de los qumicos que son dosificados a travs de una regadera para el recubrimiento de la superficie del secador Yankee. Existen dos tipos de sistema de preparacin de qumicos para el recubrimiento del secador yankee.

1.2 Conceptos de crepado. 1.2.1 Definicin de crepado. El crepado aumenta la superficie especfica del papel y abre las fibras, permitiendo mayor capacidad de absorcin y mayor flexibilidad que las de una hoja de papel corriente. El conocimiento del crepado, es la llave para poder hacer negocios en la industria del papel Tissue.

FIGURA 1.8 Funcin de la cuchilla de crepado

La funcin de la cuchilla de crepado es separar al papel de la superficie del yankee.

FIGURA 1.9 Separacin de la hoja de la superficie del secador

Otra funcin no menos importante es la de estructurar el crepado del papel tissue. Separacin del papel de la superficie del secador Para que la hoja de papel sea separada del yankee, es necesario que la punta de la cuchilla venza las fuerzas que adhieren a la hoja a la superficie del secador yankee.

FIGURA 1.10 Acercamiento de la separacin de la hoja del secador

INGENIERA EN CONTROL Y AUTOMATIZACIN

La carga que se tiene en la punta de la cuchilla debe de tener una fuerza tal que enve al papel fuera del cilindro yankee. Condiciones de operacin de las cuchillas La calidad del papel tissue es funcin de la geometra de la cuchilla, por ello para una calidad homognea es necesario que esta condicin permanezca constante. 1.2.2 Geometra de crepado.

FIGURA 1.11 Geometra de Crepado

Si conocemos el bisel de la cuchilla y el desgaste de cuchilla, podemos saber toda la geometra de crepado. Relacin de geometra de crepado Angulo Pocket=90- ngulo portacuchilla+bisel cuchilla .........(Ecuacin 1) Angulo Pocket=ngulo de la hoja+ngulo de salida...............(Ecuacin 2) Para calcular el ngulo Pocket real debemos de conocer el ngulo de desgaste ya que siempre hay una defleccin en la cuchilla de crepado y se calcula: 90 - Angulo de desgaste + bisel de cuchilla(Ecuacin 3)

INGENIERA EN CONTROL Y AUTOMATIZACIN

18

Con un ngulo alto de crepado se incrementa la posibilidad de romper los enlaces de la fibra y de esta manera la suavidad se manifiesta en mayor grado, es decir, a mayor ngulo de bisel de la cuchilla se obtiene un mayor grado de suavidad del papel.

FIGURA 1.12 ngulo al de crepado

Consecuencia de un ngulo alto en la calidad del papel Cuando el ngulo de la cuchilla de crepado es alto, se reduce el impacto de la hoja sobre la punta de la cuchilla, dando un crepado ms fino. En estas condiciones la suavidad del tissue se beneficia, debido a que se rompen ms las uniones de las fibras en la hoja debido al borde de la cuchilla. Tericamente es muy fcil mantener una operacin eficaz y constante para la elaboracin de un papel tissue de alta calidad. Las condiciones ideales son difciles de manejar, pero sobre todo mantenerlas constantes y esto es el gran reto del productor de papel tissue. Para mantener la calidad constante del papel tissue, es necesario que los parmetros seleccionados tambin permanezcan constantes Defleccin de la cuchilla La accin de la cuchilla para levantar la hoja de la superficie del yankee se modifica, y esto se har ms acentuado en la medida que el bisel de la punta de la cuchilla sea mayor.

INGENIERA EN CONTROL Y AUTOMATIZACIN

19

FIGURA 1.13 Estado de la cuchilla a mayor presin.

Este problema puede conducir a que la cuchilla pierda tanto su poder de separar la hoja del secador y esta logre pasar enrollndose en el yankee. El punto final de esto nos lleva al cambio de cuchilla. El cambio de cuchilla va a estar en funcin de que la cuchilla soporte ms o menos tiempo de trabajo, pero lo real es que cada cambio de cuchilla el dao al yankee es ms acentuado. El cambio de cuchilla de realiza con e l fin de conseguir una calidad deseada en el papel tissue. Pero una cuchilla nueva tiene sus aspectos positivos pero tambin no solo afecta la superficie del secador sino que puede tambin levantar el recubrimiento. Cuando la cuchilla no penetra lo suficiente en el recubrimiento puede ocurrir: a.- La cuchilla rompe las fibras b.- Romper la hoja ocasionando una cada de gua.

El tener estos problemas, de operacin, en donde una cada de gua lleva a una prdida de produccin, la que es una prdida econmica, tambin adicionalmente acarrear efectos en la calidad del papel como por ejemplo en la resistencia a la traccin. Si la cuchilla penetra muy profundamente en el recubrimiento, puede ocurrir un dao a la superficie del yankee.

1.2.3 Qumica del crepado. 1.2.3.1 Caractersticas de qumicos adhesivo, release, monofosfato. 1. La preparacin del recubrimiento para la superficie del secador yankee tiene 3 componentes bsicos, adhesivo, releases, y finos. 2. Algunas veces el recubrimiento incluye modificadores con bases rehumectables. 3. El adhesivo o resina pega la hoja al secador, puede ser que reticule o flmico. 4. El release controla la adhesividad de la hoja al secador y lubrica a la cuchilla crepadora. 5. Normalmente un recubrimiento (coating) contiene 50% de finos Los qumicos para el recubrimiento del yankee se pueden clasificar en naturales y sintticos: Los que se utilizan son los sintticos, adhesivo resina, release y finos como el monofosfato de amonio. Adhesivo, Resina Las resinas reticulables, son las que tienen un punto en donde son ms adhesivos, sus propiedades son: Los primeros adhesivos fueron componentes naturales de la pulpa, principalmente pitch y hemicelulosas. Ms tarde se dieron cuenta que la adhesin de la hoja puede mejorar adicionando resinas en la pasta. Muchas plantas que producan toallas cafs slo dependan de coating natural y de la resinas de resistencia en hmedo. La mayora de las resinas comerciales son de base epichlorohidrinas de resistencia en hmedo. Release Agente release o liberador. La mayora es en base a hidrocarburos. Mezclado con un recubrimiento orgnico, puede ayudar a: a.- La dureza del recubrimiento. b.- El espesor del recubrimiento. c.- La adhesin de la hoja sobre el recubrimiento. d.- Provee una barrera lubricante entre el recubrimiento y la cuchilla, lo que alarga su vida til. e.- Controla la adhesin de la hoja sobre el secador yankee f.- Controla el grosor del recubrimiento en le secador yankee

2.- Los tanques no tienen una seccin o lugar definido para su localizacin. 3.- Las bombas se encuentran sobre puestas en los contenedores de los qumicos y expuestas a altas temperaturas ambientales. 4.- Las conexiones elctricas se encuentran colgantes as como en un estado de inseguridad. 2.3 Justificacin. 2.3.1 Consecuencias en la produccin. Debido a que no se tiene un control en automtico el tiempo de respuesta para poder determinar el cambio y asegurar un ajuste en cualquiera de las variables de control, nos lleva a la generacin de merma por papel poroso, tiempos perdidos por no poder despegar la hoja de papel del secador yankee, por defectos de calidad de la caracterstica de elongacin, por rasgado en cambio de cuchilla, por desgaste de la cuchilla. Mediante el anlisis de la informacin de tiempos pedidos y prdidas en la produccin se realiza el histrico de Junio de 2008 a Septiembre del 2008.

2.3.1.1 Prdida por generacin de merma Podemos observar que el desacondicionamiento del secador en los paretos, es una causa que no tiene alto impacto, sin embargo al analizar porqu se presentan reventadas de hoja y porque se presentan en esa frecuencia el cambio de cuchillas. Se lleg a la conclusin que el correcto acondicionamiento del secador influye en gran medida al proceso del secado del papel y a la separacin de la hoja de papel del secador. El correcto acondicionamiento del secador influye en gran medida sobre la frecuencia con la que se debe realizar el cambio de cuchillas debido a que el acondicionamiento del secador tambin realiza la funcin de lubricante entre la superficie del secador y el filo de la cuchilla, ya que no hay que olvidar que son dos metales sometidos a una fuerza de friccin. Cuando el operador se ve en necesidad de realizar un cambio de cuchillas, no es factible realizar un paro temporal de la maquina para realizarlo y tampoco es factible omitir esta accin. Por lo cual en el momento que se realiza el cambio de cuchillas, es necesario, realizar un ajuste en la cuchilla de limpieza para que despegue todo el papel de la superficie del secador, pero este papel se pierde, en pocas palabras se convierte en merma y por mas que el operario lo haga en el menor tiempo posible se genera perdida por merma. Por esta razn es necesario bajar la frecuencia con la que se realiza este cambio. En la siguiente figura se muestra la grafica referente a la generacin de merma de los meses Julio, Agosto y Septiembre.

La seleccin de bombas se realiza mediante la capacidad que debe tener la bomba de dosificar los flujos determinados de cada qumico. La siguiente tabla nos permite seleccionar el modelo de la bomba de acuerdo a los requerimientos establecidos. MODELO LPA3MAPTC1500 , LPG4MAPTC1500

FIGURA 3.2 Bomba Dosificadora Serie MP

La razn por la cual se tom la decisin de utilizar estas bombas dosificadoras de flujo es debido a que actualmente ya se manejan unas bombas de control manual de esta marca, por lo cual se estara adquiriendo una misma marca para este tipo de equipo , lo cual ser de mayor conveniencia ya que se podra manejar a un mismo proveedor para la compra de refacciones o garanta de equipo e instalacin. Esto con el sentido de poder eficientar el tiempo de los trmites administrativos. Debido a la capacidad de cada bomba se determina el tipo y queda de la siguiente manera:

Installation Operation Maintenance Instruction

READ ALL WARNINGS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using chemical feed pumps, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury. Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or serious injury.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS *** : Secure chemicals and metering pumps, making them inaccessible to children and pets.

*** DO NOT PUMP FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS. *** Do not cut the plug or ground lug off the electrical cord. Consult a licensed electrician for proper installation or replacement. ** : Always wear protective clothing, including gloves and safety glasses, when working on or near chemical metering pumps.

** Inspect tubing regularly for cracking or deterioration and replace as necessary. (Always wear protective clothing and safety glasses when inspecting tubing.) ** Use CAUTION to keep fingers away from rotating parts. ** If pump is exposed to direct sunlight, use a U.V. resistant tubing. ** Follow directions and warnings provided from the chemical manufacturer. The user is responsible for determining the chemical compatibility with the chemical feed pump. ** Make sure the voltage on the pump name tag matches the installation voltage. If pump fails to start, check line voltage. ** Consult with local health officials and/or qualified water conditioning specialists when treating potable water. ** Always depressurize system prior to installation or disconnecting the metering pump tubing. ** If injection point is lower than the chemical tank and pump, install an anti-siphon valve. ** DO NOT MODIFY PUMP. This poses a potentially dangerous situation and will void the warranty. * * * * : All pumps are factory tested with water. Remove tubing and thoroughly dry if the chemical being pumped will react with water (for example sulfuric acid). Hand tighten plastic connections (Do not use wrench). Consult licensed plumber and electrician before installation to conform to local codes. NOTE: For accurate volume output, pump must be calibrated under all operating conditions.

INTRODUCTION
These installation, operation and maintenance instructions cover your electronic metering pump. Refer to the pump nameplate to determine the actual model. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION Diaphragm metering pumps are used to dispense chemicals or fluids. This is achieved by an electromagnetic drive mechanism (solenoid) which is connected to a diaphragm. When the solenoid is pulsed by the control circuit, it displaces the diaphragm which, through the use of check valves, moves the fluid out the discharge under pressure. When the solenoid is de-energized it returns the diaphragm and pulls more fluid into the pump head and the cycle repeats. The stroke rate of the pumps is controlled via the touchpad and present status is indicated by the LCD display. The stroke length is controlled via the stroke length knob. MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION The wetted materials (those parts that contact the solution being pumped) available for construction are Glass filled polypropylene, PVC, SAN, Hypalon, Viton, PTFE, 316 Stainless Steel, PVDF, Ceramic and Alloy C. These materials are very resistant to most chemicals. However, there are some chemicals, such as strong acids or organic solvents, which cause deterioration of some elastomer and plastic parts, such as the diaphragm, valve seats, or head. Consult Chemical Resistance Guide or Supplier for information on chemical compatibility. Various manufacturers of plastics, elastomers and pumping equipment publish guidelines that aid in the selection of wetted materials for pumping commercially available chemicals and chemical compounds. Two factors must always be considered when using an elastomer or plastic part to pump chemicals. They are: 1. The temperature of service: Higher temperatures increase the effect of chemicals on wetted materials. The increase varies with the material and the chemical being used. A material quite stable at room temperature might be affected at higher temperatures. 2. Material choice: Materials with similar properties may differ greatly from one another in performance when exposed to certain chemicals.

PRECAUTIONS FOR OPERATION


Each Electronic Metering Pump has been tested to meet prescribed specifications and safety standards. Proper care in handling, installation and operation will help in ensuring a trouble free installation. Please read all these cautionary notes prior to installation and start-up of your metering pump. 1. Important: Pump must be installed and used with supplied back pressure/injection valve. Failure to do so could result in excessive pump output flow. 2. Handle the pump with care. Dropping or heavy impact causes not only external damage to the pump, but also to electrical parts inside. 3. Install the pump in a place where the ambient temperature does not exceed 40C (104F). The pump is water resistant and dust proof by construction and can be used outdoors, however do not operate the pump submerged. To avoid high internal pump temperatures, do not operate in direct sunlight. 4. Install the pump in a place convenient for its future maintenance and inspection, then fix it to prevent vibration. 5. Protective caps must be removed prior to installing tubing onto valve assemblies. Use tubing of specified size. Connect the tubing to the suction side securely to prevent the entrance of outside air. Make sure that there is no liquid leakage on the discharge side. 6. Be careful to check that the voltage of the installation matches the voltage indicated on the pump nameplate. Each pump is equipped with a three prong plug. Always be sure the pump is grounded. To disconnect, do not pull wire but grip the plug with fingers and pull out. Do not use the receptacle in common with heavy electrical equipment which generates surge voltage. It can cause the failure of the electronic circuit inside the pump. 7. Tampering with electrical devices can be potentially hazardous. Always place chemicals and pump installation well out of the reach of children. 8. Never repair or move the metering pump while operating. Always disconnect electrical power. For safety, always wear protective clothing (protective gloves and safety glasses) when working on or near chemical metering pumps. 9. An air bleed valve is available for most models with tubing connections. Air purges should be performed when the pump chamber contains no fluid at the time of start-up. As a safety measure, connect the return tubing to the air bleed valve and bypass fluid back to storage tank or a suitable drain. 10. Chemicals used may be dangerous and should be used carefully and according to warnings on the label. Follow the directions given with each type of chemical. Do not assume chemicals are the same because they look alike. Always store chemicals in a safe location away from children and others. We cannot be responsible for the misuse of chemicals being fed by the pump. Always have the material safety data sheet (MSDS) available for any fluid being pumped. 11. All pumps are pretested with water before shipment. Remove head and dry thoroughly if you are pumping a material that will react with water, (i.e. sulfuric acid, polymers). Valve seats, ball checks, gaskets, and diaphragm should also be dried. Before placing pump into service, extreme care should be taken to follow this procedure. 12. Valve cartridges are stamped to indicate fluid flow direction. Always install so that markings read from top to bottom, with the arrow pointing in the direction of flow. 13. When metering hazardous material DO NOT use plastic tubing, strictly use proper rigid pipe. Consult supplier for special adapters or valve assemblies. 14. Pump is NOT to be used to handle or meter flammable liquids or materials. 15. Standard white discharge tubing is not recommended for installations exposed to direct sunlight. supplier for special black tubing. Consult

16. Factory will not be held responsible for improper installation of pump, or plumbing. All cautions are to be read thoroughly prior to hook-up and plumbing. For all installations a professional plumber should be consulted. Always adhere to local plumbing codes and requirements.

17. When using pump with pressurized systems, make sure the pressure of the system does not exceed the maximum pressure rating on the pump nameplate. Be sure to de-pressurize system prior to hook up or disconnecting the metering pump. 18. Electronic power modules are equipped with automatic reset thermal overload devices and may reset unexpectedly. 19. The pump is designed to operate using a backpressure/injection valve. If the discharge point is below the liquid level of the source or if the discharge pressure is less than the suction pressure, siphoning may occur. To correct this condition, install an anti-siphon valve or other anti-siphon device. Check local regulations which may apply. (Ref. Figure G1). 20. If the power cord is unplugged or in the event of electrical power interruption while the pump is operating, the pump will remember its last operating state for years and will resume operation as before, whenever power is restored.

INSTALLATION, PIPING AND WIRING


The metering pump should be located in an area that allows convenient connections to both the chemical storage tank and the point of injection. The pump is water resistant and dust proof by construction and can be used outdoors, however do not operate submerged. Avoid continuous temperatures in excess of 40C (104F). To do otherwise could result in damage to the pump. MOUNTING Typical mounting arrangements are shown in Figures B to E. Important: Injection point must be higher than the top of the solution supply tank to prohibit gravity feeding, unless a suitable backpressure is always present at the injection point. Installation of an antisiphon valve will prohibit gravity feeding.

1.

For wall or shelf mounting, refer to Figure E. Connect suction tubing to suction valve of chemical pump. Suction valve is the lower valve. Tubing should be long enough so that the foot valve/strainer assembly hangs about 1-2 inches (2.5 - 5 cm) above the bottom of chemical tank. To keep chemical from being contaminated, the tank should have a cover. Flooded suction mounting (installing the pump at the base of the chemical storage tank, Figure C) is the most trouble free type of installation and is recommended for very low output requirements. Since the suction tubing is filled with chemical, priming is accomplished quickly and the chance of losing prime is reduced. To mount pump, drill 4 holes of .25in. (6.3 mm) diameter in the shelf as shown in the dimension drawing (Figure F). Attach pump securely using four #10 bolts and nuts.

2.

3.

The pump can be mounted to a wall as shown in Figure D. A wall mount bracket kit is available which includes all necessary hardware to mount the pump to the wall. Mounting the pump other than as shown in Figure D defeats the purpose of the housing drain. Mounting dimensions for the pump are provided in Figure F for reference. The pump can be mounted on top of a solution tank as shown in Figure E. Install chemical pump on the cover. Insert suction tubing through the center hole and cut tubing so foot valve/strainer hangs about 1 or 2 inches (2.5 - 5 cm) above the bottom of the tank. Mount the chemical pump rigidly by drilling four .25in. (6.3 mm) holes and using four #10 screws and nuts. USE AN ANTI-SIPHON VALVE IN THE DISCHARGE LINE whenever the fluid pressure in the discharge line is below atmospheric pressure. This can occur if the injection point is on the suction side of a water pump or against a "negative" head such as when feeding down into a well, SEE FIGURE G1.

5.

PIPING 1. Use provided tubing of specified size for connection. Connect tubing securely to prevent leakage of chemical and the entrance of air. Since plastic nuts are used for fittings, they should not be tightened excessively i.e. hand tighten only. NPT suction and discharge valves must NOT be over tightened. Hold fittings in place while adding piping and fittings. NPT suction and discharge valves should only be tightened 25 to 35 in. lbs. (4.46 to 6.25 kg/cm). 2. If the air bleed valve assembly is being used, a return line (tubing) should be securely connected and routed back to the storage tank. To avoid possible injury from chemicals do not attempt to prime using a bleed valve without installing a return line. 3. To maintain metering performance, a backpressure/injection valve is provided. The injection valve must be installed in the discharge line. Best practice is to install the injection valve at the point of chemical injection. 4. If the discharge tubing is going to be exposed to direct sunlight, black tubing should be used instead of the standard white translucent tubing supplied with each pump. To obtain, contact supplier. 5. To prevent clogging or check valve malfunction always install a strainer assembly to the end of the suction tubing (Figure E). This foot valve/strainer assembly should always be installed 1 to 2 inches (2.5 - 5 cm) above the bottom of the chemical tank. This will help prevent clogging the strainer with any solids that may settle on the tank bottom. The chemical tank and foot valve/strainer should be cleaned regularly, to ensure continuous trouble free operation. If the chemical being pumped regularly precipitates out of solution or does not dissolve easily or completely (e.g. calcium hydroxide), a mixer should be used in the chemical tank. These are readily available in many motor configurations and mountings. To obtain, contact supplier. 6. A flooded suction (tank liquid level always at a higher elevation than the pump) is recommended when pumping sodium hypochlorite (NaOCI) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) etc. which are liable to produce air bubbles. Maintaining a low liquid temperature will also help eliminate this problem. 7. Pipe corrosion can result if dilution at the injection point does not occur rapidly. This problem is easily prevented by observing this simple rule: install injection fitting so that the end is in the center of the flow stream of the line being treated. Trim injector tip as required. See Figure H. Note: Extended injection assemblies are available for large water lines. Consult your supplier for more information.

10

WIRING 1. : Risk of electrical shock. This pump is supplied with a three prong grounding type power plug. To reduce risk of electric shock, connect only to a properly grounded, grounding type receptacle.

2. The metering pump should be wired to an electrical source which conforms to those on the pump nameplate. (Applying higher voltage than the pump is rated for will damage the internal circuit.) 3. In the electronic circuit of the control unit, measures for surge voltage are made by means of surge absorbing elements and high voltage semiconductors. Nevertheless, excessive surge voltage may cause failure in some areas. Therefore, the receptacle should not be used in common with heavy electrical equipment which generates high voltage. If this is unavoidable, however, measures should be taken by (a) the installation of a surge absorbing element (varistor of min. surge resistance 2000A) to the power supply connection of the pump, or (b) the installation of a noise suppression transformer.

4. In the event of electrical power interruption during pump operation, the pump will remember its setting and automatically resume operation as before, whenever power is restored. If a manual reset is required to resume operation, the electrical circuit serving the pump must be suitably wired. Latching power relays which "drop out" upon loss of power, requiring manual reset, are typically used for this purpose. WELL PUMP SYSTEM INSTALLATION 1. Ensure that the metering pump voltage matches the voltage of the well pump. Typical well pump electrical circuits are shown in Figure J. All electric wiring should be installed in accordance to local electrical codes by a licensed electrician. 2. Install the backpressure/injection (Figure I) on the discharge side of the metering pump into a tee which is installed into the water line going to the pressure tank. Typical installations are found in figures G1, G2 and G3.

Pumps carrying the "ETL Sanitation' approval (tested to NSF standard 50) are listed for swimming pools, spas, and hot tubs, and when proper materials are selected, are capable of handling but not limited to the following chemical solutions: 12% ALUMINUM SULPHATE 5% SODIUM CARBONATE 10% SODIUM HYDROXIDE 2%CALCIUM HYPOCHLORITE 12.5% SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE 10% HYDROCHLORIC ACID

DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS AND OPERATION


INTRODUCTION The pump performs the following functions:
Selected Controls - Fixed Rate - External Pulse - Straight Pulses - Pulse Storage - Division - Multiplication - External Current Signal - 4-20 mA - 20-4 mA - Stroke Counting - Timed Operation (intervals) Display Alarms - Circuit Failure - Signal Loss - Full Count

- Pulse Overflow - Pulse Rate High

Relay Output (one selected at a time) - Relay Off - Pulse Overflow - Stop Function - Repeat Strokes - Current Signal Loss - Circuit Failure - Full Count

USING THE TOUCHPAD All adjustments and changes to pump operation (except stroke length) are made through the 6-button touchpad (figure L). Except for alarm conditions, the LCD display (figure K) always presents either the present operating condition or a prompt which must be answered in order to commence operation. There are two types of prompts: Prompts in the form of questions (marked with a flashing question mark) are used to navigate through the menu options. These prompts are answered by pressing either the or buttons. Prompts marked with alternating up and down arrows are always encountered when a numerical value must be selected (i.e., stroke rates, counts, run times, ratios). These prompts are answered by pressing either the or buttons to change the display value to the desired setting. After the desired value has been set in the display, press to accept this value and continue or press to return to the main menu. To stop the pump at any time, press the red resume operation as before, press the button. button. To

To display the present stroking rate as a percentage of the button. maximum rate of the pump at any time, press the Press any button to return to the normal display. Pressing the button while the pump is in operation will bring up the relay option menu. Pressing will allow scanning the relay output options. When the desired option is presented press the button, this will set the relay option and the screen will automatically return to the operating display.

12

HELPFUL HINTS You can always get to where you want to go simply by accepting or rejecting choices presented. If you find yourself within a menu where you don't want to be, keep selecting No until you return to the main menu. If you go past the desired selection by mistake, keep selecting No and the pump will take you back to it. If you press an inappropriate button, you will be notified by a message which lasts for several seconds. A partly flashing display requires your response. A flashing question mark requires a Yes or No answer. Flashing arrows require an Up or Down numerical adjustment. To make large numerical adjustments quickly, hold down either the Up or Down arrow buttons. The value in the display will change at an increased rate. A fully flashing display is an alarm. If power is interrupted, the pump will automatically resume operating where it left off when power is restored. The pump will remember this for years while power is off.

CONTROL OPTIONS
FIXED RATE The pump operates continuously at the set rate over the span 1-100% of maximum.

EXTERNAL PULSE CONTROL - STRAIGHT PULSES Each pulse received from the external signal port causes the pump to immediately stroke once at a rate limited by the maximum rate of the pump, 125 strokes per minute. If any pulses are received at a faster rate, the Pulse Rate High alarm is triggered, during which the pump operates at its maximum rate and does not respond to the excess pulses. In the Pulse Storage option, any pulse frequency received which is at a higher rate than the pump can respond to (125 contacts per minute), will cause excess pulses to be accumulated in memory. The pump will work off the excess pulses at a rate of 125 strokes per minute when the signal level drops below the maximum rate. If the accumulation exceeds 9,999 pulses, memory storage capacity is exceeded and the Pulse Overflow alarm is triggered. During the Pulse Overflow condition the pump operates at 125 strokes per minute; when the incoming rate drops below 125 pulses per minute, normal Pulse Storage operation resumes, starting with a full memory.

EXTERNAL PULSE CONTROL - DIVISION The pump operates as described above except that incoming pulses are divided by a value from 1 to 999 prior to actuating the pump. For example, at a setting of 5, every fifth incoming pulse causes the pump to stroke once. The Pulse Storage option operates as described above. Pulse division makes it possible to "tune" the pump by adjusting its response to an external pulse signal, such as that from a flow meter, which is of too high a frequency to cause the desired feed by directly stroking the pump.

13

EXTERNAL PULSE CONTROL - MULTIPLICATION The pump operates as described previously except that incoming pulses are multiplied by a value from 1 to 999 prior to actuating the pump and then worked off at a selected stroking rate. For example, at a multiplier of 5 and a stroking rate of 25%, each incoming pulse causes the pump to stroke five times at 25% stroking rate and then stop. During operation, the display shows the present value and the present count on a running basis. Unless Pulse Storage is in effect, additional external pulses received while responding to a previous pulse are ignored. This option is similar to Stroke Counting (see below) except that action is initiated automatically by one or more external pulses rather than once manually by the user. There is no Full Count alarm as in Stroke Counting since it is always possible to receive additional external pulses. The Pulse Storage option operates as described above.

EXTERNAL CURRENT SIGNAL CONTROL In the 4-20 mA (direct) option, the pump responds linearly to a current signal from the incoming signal port over the full operating span from 0% (4 mA) to 100% (20 mA). For example, a 12 mA signal causes the pump to operate at 50% of full. In the 20-4 mA (reverse) option, pump response is the reverse of the above: from 0% (20 mA) to 100% (4 mA). In both the 4-20 mA and 20-4 mA options, a Ratio from 1 to 99% can be applied to step down the response. For example, a 12 mA signal at a 50% ratio causes the pump to respond as if the signal were only 6 mA (50% of 12 mA). In all the above options, the Signal Loss alarm is triggered whenever the signal drops below approximately 2 mA for several seconds. The pump stops operating during the loss of signal condition, and automatically resumes normal operation when the signal is restored.

STROKE COUNTING The pump delivers a preset number of up to 9,999 strokes at a selected stroking rate. During operation, the display shows the preset value and the present count on a running basis. When the preset number of strokes has been delivered, the pump stops and the Full Count alarm is triggered. Pressing Yes when the Full Count alarm is displayed brings up the reset prompt. Continue pressing Yes to repeat the same stroking cycle or change the displayed values as they are presented to change the stroke count. This option is similar to External Pulse Control - Multiplication (see above) except that action is initiated once manually by the user rather than by one or more external pulses.

TIMED OPERATION* The pump operates for selected run times from 1 to 999 minutes (16.65 hours) at selected intervals from 1 to 999 hours (41.625 days) at a selected stroking rate. For example, the pump might be set to operate for 60 minutes every 168 hours (7 days), at a 50% stroking rate. During operation the pump displays the run time in minutes and the interval in hours. * Pumps with version numbers "B4" and "GB4" (displayed on power-up) use settings of seconds and minutes.

RELAY SETTINGS
The following relay output options can be brought up on the menu by pressing the Yes button while the pump is in an operating condition (Relay options vary with operating condition). Press the No button to scan through the options available. Only one relay output option may be selected. When the desired option is displayed, press the Yes button. This will set the relay for the chosen option and the display will automatically return to the previous operating display.

RELAY OFF In all control options the relay remains open at all times. STOP FUNCTION In all control options the relay is normally open and closes while the Stop Function is activated through the stop port. CURRENT SIGNAL LOSS In any Current Signal control option, the relay is normally open and closes while the Signal Loss alarm is in effect. FULL COUNT In the Stroke Counting control option, the relay is normally open and closes while the Full Count alarm is in effect. PULSE OVERFLOW In any External Pulse control option with Pulse Storage, the relay is normally open and closes while the Pulse Overflow alarm is in effect. REPEAT STROKES In all control options, the relay is normally open and closes momentarily during each stroke of the pump. If the pump is equipped with a 24 VDC signal relay output, this function may be used to pace another externally paced pump. CIRCUIT FAILURE At all times, the relay is normally open and closes while the Circuit Failure alarm is in effect. The numbers which flash alternately with the alarm signal are for failure diagnosis at the factory.

ALARMS
Alarms are distinguished by a fully flashing display. CIRCUIT FAILURE At all times, pumping is disabled and the pump will no longer operate until repaired. SIGNAL LOSS In any Current Signal option, the Signal Loss alarm is triggered whenever the signal drops below approximately 2 mA for several seconds. The pump stops operating during the loss of signal condition and resumes normal operation when the signal is restored. This includes the 20-4 mA option, in which a low current (4 mA) signal normally calls for full pump output in order to prevent overfeeding in the event of signal loss. FULL COUNT In the Stroke Counting control option, when the preset number of strokes has been delivered and the pump stops, the Full Count alarm is triggered. PULSE OVERFLOW In the Pulse Storage option, when memory capacity is exceeded the Pulse Overflow alarm is triggered. The pump continues to respond to external signal pulses as if 9,999 pulses were in storage. PULSE RATE HIGH In any External Pulse Control option without Pulse Storage, receipt of any pulses at a faster rate than maximum pump stroking rate, 125 strokes per minute, the Pulse Rate High alarm is triggered. The pump continues to operate at its maximum rate and does not respond to the excess pulses.

START UP AND OPERATION


POWER All metering pumps are available in 115 volts at 50/60 Hertz, single phase. Optionally 230 volts at 50/60 Hertz, single phase can be provided. Prior to start-up always check to insure that the pump voltage/frequency/phase matches that of the power supply. : If pump is fitted with a PVC pump head (7th position of model number is V. Note: PVC is gray, not black), uniformly hand tighten the four head screws before use (18-22 inch pounds / 3.21-3.93 kg/cm). Periodically tighten after installation.

PRIMING : When working on or around a chemical metering pump installation, protective clothing and gloves and safety glasses should be worn at all times. All pumps are tested with water. If the chemical to be pumped reacts when mixed with water (e.g. sulfuric acid, polymer) the pump head should be removed and dried thoroughly along with the diaphragm and valve seats. 1. 2. 3. Turn on the power to the pump. Operate the pump in the fixed rate control mode at 100% (full) rate. The green LED will light up and flash off each time the pump strokes. Adjust the stroke length knob to the 100% setting mark (for more information see Stroke Length Adjustment on the following page). If the discharge line is connected directly to a pressurized system it should be temporarily bypassed during priming of the pump. A bleed valve will simplify this operation by allowing easy bypass of the discharge fluid. All air must be purged from the pump head before the pump will pump against pressure. Air Bleed Operation: A) While pump is running, turn adjustment screw counterclockwise. B) Run with valve open until a solid stream of fluid comes out of the bypass tubing (1/4 x 3/8 supplied with valve), no air bubbles. C) Close air bleed valve by turning adjustment screw clockwise. 4. Chemical should reach the pump head after a few minutes of operation. If not, remove the discharge fitting and moisten the discharge valve area (ball check and valve seats) with a few drops of chemical being fed to the metering pump. For safety, always use protective clothing and gloves, wear safety glasses and use a proper container to hold the chemical. If the pump continues to refuse to prime, refer to Troubleshooting Section of these instructions. Turn the power on once more and adjust the pump flow to the desired rate (see Controlling Procedure below). Always check the calibration of the pump after start-up. Its best to calibrate the pump under your typical use conditions.

5. 6. 7.

STROKE LENGTH ADJUSTMENT Stroke length can be controlled within 0 to 100% of the diaphragm displacement. (It should be controlled within 20 to 100% for practical use.) Stroke length can be set by means of the stroke length adjusting knob while the pump is in operation. Do not turn the knob while the pump is stopped.

Controlling Procedure (for fixed rate): Proper set points for stroke length should be determined after consideration of the pump and characteristics of the fluid. The following procedure is recommended from the viewpoint of pump performance. Note: The closer the stroke length is to 100%, the better the pump performance will be. A) B) Set the stroke length to 100%. Measure the output capacity. Adjust the stroke rate frequency to obtain the desired output. If adjustment by stroke rate alone does not bring the output low enough, the stroke length may be adjusted to lower the maximum output. C) Measure the output capacity to ensure that the required value is obtained. = = = = = = LMD4 100% 100% 21 GPD* 17 GPD 17 x 100 = 81% (approx.)* 21

Example Selected Model Set Stroke Length Set Stroke Rate Output Capacity (Rated Pressure) Desired Flow Adjust Stroke Rate to 81% Output Capacity

Thus to obtain the desired flow, stroke length is set at 100% and stroke rate is set at 81% i.e. output capacity = 0.81 x 21 = 17 GPD* * Check these values by measurement. Output capacity is higher when feeding against less than rated pressure.

19

OPERATION BY EXTERNAL INPUT SIGNALS: The pump can be controlled by three types of input signals. All are fully isolated from AC input power and from Earth ground. The input socket connections are located at the bottom of the control panel face and the signal cords are provided with the pump. Remove rubber plugs to access plug sockets.

Stop Function: Operation of the pump can be stopped by an external signal input. When the external signal is input to the stop terminals, the red light goes on and operation of the pump is stopped. The stop function overrides all control options and input signals at other terminals. Previous operation resumes when the stop signal is removed. : Operation of more than one pump from the same contact closure will damage the pump circuits. When such operation is required, the pump circuits must be electrically isolated from one another by means of a multi-contact control relay or similar means.

Input signals should be no-voltage signals from relay contacts, etc. and the input of other signals is prohibited. (In case of relay contacts, electric resistance must be 100 ohms or below when ON and 1 Mega ohm or above when OFF). The stop function is commonly used in conjunction with a tank float switch. The float switch contacts are normally open but when the tank level falls past a certain point the contacts close and the pump stops. Signal cord is provided with the pump.

External Pacing Function: Pump stroking can be controlled by an external pulse signal through the external signal terminals while the pump is in one of the external pacing control modes. : Operation of more than one pump from the same contact closure will damage the pump circuits. When such operation is required, the pump circuits must be electrically isolated from one another by means of a multi-contact control relay or similar means.

After receiving an input signal, the pump generates the necessary power pulse to actuate the solenoid. The external signal input is debounced by the pump circuit. Input signals should be no-voltage signals from relay contacts, etc. and the input of other signals is prohibited. (In the case of relay contacts, electric resistance must be 100 ohms or below when ON and 1 Mega ohm or above when OFF). The pulse duration of the input signal must be 10 milliseconds or over and the frequency of input signal must not exceed 125 times/min unless accommodated by pulse division or pulse storage. Signal cord is provided with the pump.

4-20 mA / 20-4 mA Function: The pump stroking rate can be controlled by a 4-20 mA direct or an inverse current signal when in one of the current signal modes. The pump automatically adjusts stroking rate according to the signal level provided to the pump. Pumps may be wired in series to the current signal providing that the signal source is sufficient to handle the load (each pump has an impedance of 187 ohms). The pump responds to a straight (non-ratio) 4-20 mA signal as follows: (Figure N below shows straight response and response ratioed by 25, 50 and 75%): The pump responds to a 20-4 mA signal as follows. (Figure O below shows straight response and response ratioed by 25, 50 and 75%):

20

The signal cord is provided with the pump and has the following polarity: White = Positive (+) Black = Common Signal input impedance is 100 ohms.

OUTPUT RELAY Each pump has the option of being provided with one of two separate normally open output relay options as described below. Relays close according to the option selected, and remain closed during the condition specified for the selected option except for the Repeat Strokes option.

21

The Signal Level output relay option is via the output signal terminals on the pump control panel. It is designed to provide direct or inverted voltage output signals as shown in figure O. The voltage input must have a high-impedance characteristic and must not exceed 24 VDC. The pump circuit can source or sink a maximum current of 10 mA. The signal cord is provided with the pump and has the following polarity when connected to the pump terminals. White = Positive (+) Black = Common

The Power Level option is via the power relay cord which exits the pump below the control panel. The power level relay is a zero-crossing triac-type solid-state switch as seen in figure Q which is designed to switch AC current only and has the following ratings: Voltage Minimum = 12 VAC, 50/60 HZ Maximum = 250 VAC, 50/60 HZ Current minimum = 10 mAmps maximum = .5 Amps Power minimum = .12 watts (at 12 VAC) maximum = 120 watts (at 240 VAC)

* Load can be any device which meets the above voltage and current limits (i.e., lamp, alarm, siren, relay, etc.)

Do not apply power directly to the relay cord without a sufficient load to limit current as indicated above. Do not exceed the specified voltage rating. Excess current or voltage will damage the pump and cause fire and electrical shock hazards. Do not install any type of standard power plug to the relay cord.

MAINTENANCE
: Before performing any maintenance or repairs on chemical metering pumps, be sure to disconnect all electrical connections and insure that all pressure valves are shut off and pressure in the pump and lines has been bled off. Always wear protective clothing, gloves and safety glasses when performing any maintenance or repairs on chemical metering pumps.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE 1. Routinely check the physical operating condition of the pump. Look for the presence of any abnormal noise, excessive vibration, low flow and pressure output or high temperatures [when running constantly at maximum stroke rate, the pump housing temperature can be up to 160F (70C)] 2. For optimum performance, cartridge valves should be changed every 4-6 months. Depending on the application, more frequent changes may be required. Actual operating experience is the best guide in this situation. Repeated shortterm deterioration of valve seats and balls usually indicates a need to review the suitability of wetted materials selected for the application. Contact the supplier for guidance. 3. Check for leaks around fittings or as a result of deteriorating tubing e.g. when standard white translucent discharge tubing is exposed to direct sunlight. Take appropriate action to correct leak by tightening fittings or replacing components. 4. Keep the pump free of dirt/debris as this provides insulation and can lead to excessive pump temperatures. 5. If the pump has been out of service for a month or longer, clean the pump head/valve assemblies by pumping fresh water for approximately 30 minutes. If the pump does not operate normally after this purging run, replace cartridge valve assemblies.

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY DIAPHRAGM REMOVAL 1. Flush pump head and valve assemblies out by running pump on water or other suitable neutralizing solution. Wash outside of pump down if chemical has dripped on pump. 2. Set stroke length of pump to 0% and unplug pump. 3. Disconnect tubing or piping from the pump. Remove the four pump head screws and then remove the pump head assembly. 4. Remove the diaphragm by grasping it at the outer edges and turning it counterclockwise until it unscrews from the electronic power module (EPM). Dont lose the deflection plate or diaphragm shims which are behind the diaphragm. Note shim quantity can be from 0 to 2. 5. Inspect diaphragm if it is intended to be used again. Look for indications of the TFE face being overstretched, (localized white areas) or the elastomer on the back of the diaphragm being worn. Excessive amounts of either condition require diaphragm replacement.

24

DIAPHRAGM REPLACEMENT Refer to drawings in the back of the manual. 1. When replacing the diaphragm, its always a good idea to replace the valve cartridges and other worn parts. A kit is available from your supplier with all parts necessary to completely rebuild your pumps wet end. All your supplier needs to know is the KOPkit No. on your pumps nameplate to supply this kit. 2. Set pump stroke length to 0% and unplug the pump. 3. If you kept the shims from the original diaphragm or know the original quantity you can avoid Step #4 for shimming the diaphragm and go to Step #5. 4. Slide the diaphragm deflection plate onto the back of the diaphragm stud, radius side towards the diaphragm. Next slide two shims onto the diaphragm threaded stud and screw the diaphragm into the EPM unit. Refer to Figure R. Turn diaphragm clockwise until deflection plate and shims are tight against solenoid shaft, diaphragm stops turning. If there is a gap between the adaptor and diaphragm, repeat the procedure removing one shim each time until the diaphragm just touches the adaptor or is slightly recessed. 5. Apply grease to areas of the diaphragm that contact the deflection plate or radius on the adaptor. 6. Screw the diaphragm into the EPM units shaft with the deflection plate and appropriate number of shims in between. 7. Adjust stroke length to 50%. It is easier to do this if you temporarily turn the pump on. Place the pump head onto the adaptor with valve flow arrows pointing up and install and tighten pump head screws. Tighten screws until pump head pulls up against adaptor. 8. Adjust stroke length back to 100% for easier priming and place pump back into service.

VALVE REPLACEMENT 1. Flush pump to clean any chemical from pump head. 2. Unplug pump, release system pressure, and disconnect any tubing or piping. 3. Unscrew valve cartridges and discard. Also remove O-Rings down inside pump head. 4. Using new O-Rings, install new valve cartridges with stamped letters reading from top to bottom, and the arrow pointing in the direction of flow. Hand tighten only, do not use wrenches or pliers. This is especially important when the pump head is SAN material. 5. Reconnect tubing or piping and reinstall the pump. 6. Check for leaks around newly installed fittings.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM LOSS OF CHEMICAL RESIDUAL PROBABLE CAUSE 1. Pump setting too low. 2. Scale at injection point 3. Solution container allowed to run dry 1. Pump setting too high1. TOO MUCH CHEMCIAL 2. Chemical in solution tank is too rich REMEDY 1. Adjust to higher setting (pump must be operating during stroke length adjustment). 2. Clean injection parts with 8% muriatic acid or undiluted 3. Refill the tank with solution and prime. See start-up and operation section 1. Lower pump setting (pump must be operating to adjust stroke length knob). 2. Dilute chemical solution. NOTE: For chemical that reacts with water, it may be necessary to purchase a more dilute grade of chemical direct from chemical supplier. 3. Test for suction or vacuum at the injection point. If suction exists, install an anti-siphon valve. 1. Cut off end of tubing (about 1) and then replace as before 2. Consult your seller for alternate material. 1. Examine suction tubing. If worn at the end, cut approximately an inch off and replace 2. Clean valve seats if dirty or replace with alternate material if deterioration is noted 3. When pumping against pressure, the dial should be set above 20% capacity for a reliable feed rate 4. Solution must be above foot valve 5. Replace diaphragm as shown in the Maintenance Section. Check for pressure above rated maximum at the injection point. NOTE: Chemical incompatibility with diaphragm material can cause diaphragm rupture and leakage around the pump head. 6. Replace pump head as shown in Maintenance Section. Make sure fittings are hand tight only. Using pliers and wrench can crack pump head. Also, chemical incompatibility can cause cracking and subsequent leakage. 7. Bleed pump head, see Air Bleed Operation. 8. Connect wiring properly. Check fuse or circuit breaker 9. Take measures after investigation of cause 10. Contact supplier 1. Remove and replace or clean off any scale or sediment 2. Check seat and ball checks for chips, clean gently. If deformity or deterioration is noted, replace part with proper material. Resulting crystals can hold check valves open, therefore the valves must be disassembled and cleaned. Be sure to replace all parts as shown in the Parts Diagram at the end of the manual. 3. Refill the tank with solution and prime. See Start-Up and Operation section 4. Bleed gas, use flooded suction, maintain chemical at room temperature (approx. 20 F / 6 C). 1. Tighten hand tight. Replace gasket if hand tight does not stop leakage 2. Check gaskets and replace if broken or damaged 3. Consult your pump supplier for alternate material 1. Turn off all pressure valves, loosen outlet tubing connection at discharge point. Remove discharge valve cartridge. Dampen ball check and valve seats with a few drops of solution. Set pump dial to maximum rate. When pump is primed, reconnect all tubing connections. 2. Disassemble, loosen, clean and check for deterioration swelling. Reassemble and wet the valve assembly, then prime. See Start-Up Operation section. 3. Always prime pump with out dial set a maximum rated capacity 4. Decrease suction lift or pull vacuum on pump discharge until pump is primed 5. Loosen discharge valve to aid in priming, take necessary safety precautions or apply vacuum to pump discharge

The beta pump series is a solenoid-driven, diaphragmtype metering pump featuring the following:
Microprocessor based Capacity range 0.19 - 8.4 gph (0.74 - 32 L/h) Continuous stroke length adjustment from 0 to 100% 10-setting stroke frequency adjustment from 10 to 100% Maximum stroke rate: 180 spm Repeatability +/- 2% when used according to operating instructions Liquid end materials: PP, PVC, Acrylic, PTFE, SS Auto degassing liquid ends High viscosity liquid ends External access to options 12-24 VDC low voltage option ProMinent solenoid-driven metering pumps consist of two main components: the pump drive unit and the liquid end. The beta series offers two drive (solenoid) sizes: beta/4 (BT4a) and beta/5 (BT5a). Operating principles and options are identical, and both units offer maximum backpressures up to 253 psig (17.5 bar). Capacity range for the beta/4 is 0.19 to 5 gph (0.74 to 19 L/h); beta/5 is 1.1 to 8.4 gph (4.1 to 32 L/h). Feed rate is determined by stroke length and stroking rate: stroke length can be varied from 0 to 100% with an adjustment ratio of 10:1. It is set manually by the adjustment knob on the front of the pump. Stroke rate can be adjusted in 10% increments between 10 and 100% via the multifunction switch. This switch is also used to select voltage-free On/Off external pulse contact, pump stop, or test (for priming).

The Drive Unit


Pump housing
Constructed of fiberglass-reinforced PPE plastic, with a NEMA 4x enclosure rating to protect against corrosion, dust and water. valve. When the magnetic field is de-energized, a spring returns the armature and diaphragm to their original position. This return movement draws chemical into the dosing head cavity through the suction valve. In the event of a diaphragm rupture, the liquid end has a weep hole on the bottom of the backplate to direct chemical out of the pump and away from the solenoid. An optional diaphragm failure monitor can be used to stop the pump and indicate a problem. The stroke-length adjusting mechanism is directly connected to the solenoid. Adjustment results in an accurate self-locking stroke length setting.

Solenoid drive
The drive unit houses a shortstroke solenoid with a maximum stroke length of 0.05" (1.25 mm). It is equipped with a noise suppressing mechanism for quiet operation and has only one moving part, the armature. Operating on pulse action, each pulse generates a magnetic field in the solenoid coil. This magnetic field moves the armature forward. At the end of the armature is the diaphragm. The diaphragm pushes into the dosing head cavity forcing chemical out of the discharge

The Diaphragm
The diaphragm is constructed of fabric-reinforced EPDM elastomer with a plastic core and a PTFEfacing. It is chemically resistant against virtually all process fluids and can be used over a wide temperature range. The beta pump is designed with the new-style convex diaphragm. The curved shape contributes to more precise metering and alleviates stress placed on the diaphragm by reducing liquid end dead volume.

The Liquid End


The beta metering pump liquid ends are available in five material versions: Polypropylene (PP) PVC (PC) Acrylic/PVC (NP) PTFE (TT) 316 Stainless steel (SS) Options include a manual bleed valve for easy priming and continuous bleeding of fluids that tend to off-gas (available with versions 1000-0713 PP, NP and PC liquid ends). Automatic degassing liquid ends are available for PP and NP versions (except 1000 and 0232). This newstyle liquid end discharges from the center and degasses from the top to prevent air build-up in the chamber. High viscosity PVDF liquid ends are available for pump versions 1005, 0708, 0413, 0220, 1605, 1008, 0713, and 0420. Their metering capacity is 10-20% less than standard pump versions and recommended viscosity is up to 3000 cPs. The HV liquid ends are not self-priming. Suction and discharge ports are equipped with double ball check valves for maximum repeatability.

Some liquid ends are interchangeable between the BT4a and BT5a (see table on page 4).

Fault annunciating relay For low tank level (level switch), processor fault, and fuse/power supply failure. Pacing relay A contact closure is issued with every pump stroke (contact duration 150 ms). This allows a second ProMinent metering pump to be paced synchronously, or to totalize flow with an external stroke counter.

Above capacities and suction lift refer to pumps tested on water at 115 VAC, 60 Hz, and an ambient temperature of 70F (20C). Higher specific gravity fluids will reduce suction lift. Higher viscosity fluids will reduce capacity. Liquid ends for highly viscous media have 10-20% les metering capacity and are not self-priming. Standard connectors are 1/2" MNPT or 5/8" hose barb. Positive suction recommended. * Not available with bleed valve. ** SS versions use 1/4" female threads except models 0220, 0420, and 0232 which use 3/8" female threads.
