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 40°C (104°F). 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.
