19 Manufacturer s Manuals 3.0 Pre-Installation Instructions The following precautions should be taken when working with LMI metering pumps. Please read this section carefully prior to installation. Precautions! CAUTION Protective Clothing ALWAYS wear protective clothing, face shield, safety glasses and gloves when working on or near your metering pump. Additional precautions should be taken depending on the solution being pumped. Refer to MSDS precautions from your solution supplier.! CAUTION Water Pre-Prime All LMI pumps are pre-primed with water when shipped from the factory. If your solution is not compatible with water, disassemble the Pump Head Assembly. Thoroughly dry the pump head, valves, seal rings, balls and Liquifram (diaphragm). Reassemble head assembly tightening screws in a crisscross pattern. Refill the pump head with the solution to be pumped before priming the pump. (This will aid in priming.)! CAUTION Solution Compatibility Determine if the materials of construction included in the liquid handling portion of your pump are adequate for the solution (chemical) to be pumped. LMI pumps are tested by NSF for use on muriatic acid and sodium hypochlorite. Always refer to the solution supplier and the LMI Chemical Resistance Chart for compatibility of your specific LMI metering pump. Contact your local LMI distributor for further information. 8 8

20 Manufacturer s Manuals! CAUTION Tubing Connections Inlet and outlet tubing or pipe sizes must not be reduced. Make certain that all tubing is SECURELY ATTACHED to fittings prior to start-up (see Section 4.3, Tubing Connections). ALWAYS use LMI supplied tubing with your pump, as the tubing is specifically designed for use with the pump fittings. It is recommended that all tubing be shielded to prevent possible injury in case of rupture or accidental damage. If tubing is exposed to sunlight, black UV resistant tubing should be installed. Check tubing frequently for cracks and replace as necessary.! CAUTION Fittings And Machine Threads All fittings should be hand-tightened. An additional 1/8-1/4 turn after the fitting contacts the seal ring may be necessary to provide a leak-proof seal. Excessive overtightening or use of a pipe wrench can cause damage to the fittings, seals, or pump head. All LMI pumps have straight screw machine threads on the head and fittings and are sealed by the seal rings or O-rings. DO NOT use Teflon tape or pipe dope to seal threads. Teflon Tape may only be used on the 1/2" NPT thread side of the Injection Check Valve as well as stainless steel liquid end connections.! CAUTION Plumbing Always adhere to your local plumbing codes and requirements. Be sure installation does not constitute a cross connection. Check local plumbing codes for guidelines. LMI is not responsible for improper installations.! CAUTION Back Pressure/Anti-Syphon Valve If you are pumping downhill or into low or no system pressure, a back pressure/anti-syphon device such as LMI's Four Function Valve should be installed to prevent overpumping or syphoning. Contact your LMI distributor for furthur information. 9 9

21 Manufacturer s Manuals! WARNING Electrical Connections To reduce the risk of electrical shock, install only on a circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). The metering pump must be plugged into a grounded outlet with ratings conforming to the data on the pump control panel. The pump must be connected to a good ground. DO NOT USE ADAPTERS! All wiring must conform to local electrical codes. To LMI Pump To LMI Pump INCORRECT CORRECT 4.0 Installation 4.1 Pump Location and Installation 10 Locate pump in an area convenient to solution tank and electrical supply. The pump should be accessible for routine maintenance, and should not be subjected to ambient temperatures above 122 F (50 C). If the pump will be exposed to direct sunlight, LMI black, UV resistant tubing should be installed. 4.2 Pump Mounting The pump can be mounted in one of two ways: A. FLOODED SUCTION (ideal installation); or B. SUCTION LIFT - when suction lift is less than 5 feet (1.5 m) for solutions having a specific gravity of water. For denser solutions, consult distributor. Your LMI metering pump must be mounted so that the suction and discharge valves are vertical. NEVER position pump head and fittings horizontally. 10

22 Manufacturer s Manuals Flooded Suction! CAUTION The pump is mounted at the base of the storage tank. This installation is the most trouble-free, and is recommended for very low outputs, solutions that gasify, and high-viscosity solutions. Since the suction tubing is filled with solution, priming is accomplished quickly and the chance of losing prime is reduced. When pumping downhill or into low or no pressure system, a back pressure/anti-syphon device should be installed to prevent overpumping or syphoning. Although popular for all solutions, LMI recommends flooded suction installations for all high-viscosity fluid applications.

Remove the ball and pour water or solution into the port until the head is filled. Replace valve, then follow start up/priming steps. 6.4 Output Adjustment Once the pump has been primed, an appropriate output adjustment MUST be made. Pump output should be calculated and adjustments made accordingly. 6.5 Total Pump Output Calculate the total output of the pump as follows: PUMP OUTPUT = MAX PUMP OUTPUT x % SPEED x % STROKE Example: A SI Use MAX Output (from dataplate on bottom center of pump control panel) = 24 GPD (24 gallons per day). If the pump is set at 60% speed and 70% stroke length, the approximate pump output is: 24.0 x 0.60 x 0.70 = GPD (gallons per day). Divide by 24 (hours in one day) to calculate in gallons per hour. If pump is not equipped with speed adjustment, calculate by Max Pump Output x % Stroke only

39 Manufacturer s Manuals 8.0 Calibration Once installation is complete and the approximate output has been determined, the pump should be calibrated to adjust speed and stroke for your actual desired output. (Calibration cylinders may be purchased from your local LMI distributor, ref. publication 1798.). 1. Be sure the pump is primed, and discharge tubing and Injection Check Valve are installed as they would be in normal service (i.e., including factors such as injection pressure, fluid viscosity, and suction lift). 2. Place the Foot Valve in a graduated container with a volume of 1000 ml or more. 3. Plug in and switch pump to Internal Mode. Pump until all the air is exhausted from the suction line and head. 4. Turn the pump off. Refill graduated container to a level starting point. If pump is equipped with pressure control, see Section 8.1 before proceeding. 5. Using a stopwatch or timer, turn the pump on for a measured amount of time (50 pump strokes minimum). The longer the time period, the more confident you can be of the results. Be sure to count the number of strokes during the calibration period when making comparisons. 6. Turn the pump off. Note the time elapsed in relation to volume displaced in the graduate. Now, calculate the output in the time unit you choose (minutes, hours, days, etc.). 7. If the output is too low or too great, adjust speed and or stroke, estimating required correction and repeat steps

40 50 Manufacturer s Manuals Tee Pressure Line Injection Check Valve LMI Pump Suction Lift Graduate 1000 ml Min. Foot Valve 8.1 Pressure Control Adjust Pressure Control: While unit is running, turn Pressure Control Potentiometer slowly counter-clockwise until unit just begins to stall. From this stall point, now turn Pressure Control Potentiometer clockwise halfway between the stall point and maximum setting. This is the optimum pressure control setting for your application. Increase setting if back pressure is increased. Adjusting pressure control decreases pressure rating of pump. Adjust pressure control to reduce heat, shock, and pulsations; and to prolong pump life

41 Manufacturer s Manuals 8.2 Calibration Procedure - On-Site Volumetric Calibration in External Mode 1. Since pump output is governed by an external device such as Flowmeter-Pulser, Liquitron Controller, or 4-20 ma DC signal from an instrument with an LMI Analog-to-Digital Converter, only the output per stroke may be calibrated. 2. With pump primed and discharge tubing connected to the injection point as it would be in normal service, place Foot Valve Assembly in a graduated container with a volume of 1000 ml or more. 3. Switch pump to Internal mode with Speed Knob set at 100 until air is exhausted from suction line and pump head. 4. Adjust Pressure Control (if desired) - See Section Switch pump OFF and note solution level in graduated container. Refill graduate to a starting point. 6. Switch pump ON and count the number of strokes for exactly one minute, then switch pump OFF. 7. Note volume pumped during the calibration period of one minute. Divide into this the number of strokes to determine the volume of solution pumped per stroke. Example: 500 ml in 100 strokes = 5.0 ml per stroke. Multiply this by your expected stroke rate per minute, per hour or per day and compare with desired output requirements. 8. Adjust Stroke Length Knob (lower knob) to your best estimate of required correction and repeat calibration procedure. 9.0 Spare Parts Replacement Routine Maintenance 9.1 Depressurizing the Discharge Line (For Pumps Equipped with a 3-FV or a 4-FV only) CAUTION 30! ALWAYS wear protective clothing, face shield, safety glasses and gloves when performing any maintenance or replacement on your pump. 30

42 Manufacturer s Manuals! CAUTION! CAUTION Read steps 1 and 2 below before proceeding. 1. Be sure the Injection Check Valve is properly installed and is operating. If a shut off valve has been installed downstream of the Injection Valve, it should be closed. Be sure your relief tubing is connected to your multi-function valve and runs back to your solution drum or tank. 2. 1/4 turn the black knob on the valve. The discharge line is now depressurized. Keep valve open until solution drains back down the discharge tubing into solution drum or tank. Then 1/4 turn knob to normal position. 9.2 Liquifram (Diaphragm) Replacement! CAUTION ALWAYS wear protective clothing, face shield, safety glasses and gloves when working near or performing any maintenance or replacement on your pump. See MSDS information from solution supplier for additional precautions. LMI metering pumps are designed for trouble-free operation, yet routine maintenance of elastomeric parts is essential for optimum performance. This involves replacing the Liquifram, cartridge valves or seal rings/valve balls, multi-function valve cap assemblies and the injection check valve spring. LMI recommends replacing these parts at least once a year; however, frequency will depend on your particular application. When replacing the Liquifram and the cartridge valves or seal rings/valve balls, the injection check valve spring should also be replaced (see next Section 9.3). A Spare Parts Kit (SP-#) or RPM Pro Pac kit containing these parts may be obtained from your local distributor. Replacing the Liquifram : 1. Carefully depressurize, drain, and disconnect the discharge line (see Section 8.1 in this manual). Place the Foot Valve into a container of water or other neutralizing solution. Turn the pump on to flush the head assembly. Once the pump head has been flushed, lift the Foot Valve out of the solution and continue to pump air into the pump head until the pump head is purged of water or neutralizing solution

43 Manufacturer s Manuals! CAUTION If the liquid cannot be pumped due to Liquifram rupture using protective clothing, gloves and face shield, carefully disconnect the suction and discharge tubing. Remove the four screws to the head and immerse the head in water or other neutralizing solution. 2. Start the pump. While running, set the stroke knob to zero and turn the pump off. See Section 10.0 for proper zero. 3. With the unit off, unscrew the Liquifram by carefully grasping the outer edge and turning it counter-clockwise. Discard old Liquifram. Remove the Liquifram disk if so equipped (located behind the Liquifram ) and check that the size code matches the size code on the replacement Liquifram (see illustration). 4. Reinstall the disk so the alignment pin on the disk (if present) seats in the recessed hole in the EPU. Be careful not to scratch the Teflon face of the new Liquifram.

49 Manufacturer s Manuals 11.0 Troubleshooting PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE Pump Will Not Prime 1. Pump not turned on or plugged in. 2. Output dials not set properly. 3. Foot Valve not in vertical position on bottom of tank. 4. Pump suction lift too high. 5. Suction tubing is curved or coiled in tank. 6. Fittings are over tightened. 7. Air trap in suction valve tubing. 8. Too much pressure at discharge. (Pumps without multi-function valve.) Pump Loses Prime 1. Solution container ran dry. 2. Foot Valve is not in a vertical position on the bottom of the tank. 3. Pump suction lift is too high. 4. Suction tubing is curved or coiled in tank. 5. Fittings are over tightened. 6. Air trap in suction valve tubing. 7. Air leak on suction side

50 Manufacturer s Manuals SOLUTION 1. Turn on pump/plug in pump. 2. Always prime pump with speed at 80% and stroke at 100%. 3. Foot Valve must be vertical (see Foot Valve Installation, Section 4.6). 4. Maximum suction lift is 5 ft (1.5 m). Pumps with High Viscosity Liquid Handling Assemblies require flooded suction. 5. Suction tubing must be vertical. Use LMI tubing straightener supplied with pump (see Section 4.6). 6. Do not overtighten fittings. This causes seal rings to distort and not seat properly which causes pump to leak back or lose prime. 7. Suction tubing should be as vertical as possible. AVOID FALSE FLOODED SUCTION! (see Section 4.2.1). 8. Shut off valves in pressurized line. Disconnect tubing at injection check valve (see Priming Section 6.0). When pump is primed, reconnect discharge tubing. 1. Refill container with solution and reprime (see Section 6.0). 2. Foot Valve must be vertical (see Foot Valve Installation, Section 4.6). 3. Maximum suction lift is 5 ft (1.5 m). Pumps with High Viscosity Liquid Handling Assemblies require flooded suction. 4. Suction tubing must be vertical. Use LMI tubing straightener supplied with pump (see Section 4.6). 5. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN FITTINGS. This causes seal rings to distort and not seat properly which caused pump to leak back or lose prime. 6. Suction tubing should be as vertical as possible. AVOID FALSE FLOODED SUCTION! (see Section 4.2.1). 7. Check for pinholes, cracks. Replace if necessary

51 Manufacturer s Manuals Troubleshooting (continued) PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE Leakage at tubing 1. Worn tubing ends. 2. Loose or cracked fitting. 3. Worn seal rings. 4. Solution attacking Liquid Handling Assembly material. Low Output or Failure 1. Pump s maximum pressure rating to Pump Against is exceeded by injection pressure. Pressure 2. Worn Seal Rings. 3. Ruptured Liquifram. 4. Incorrect stroke length. 5. Tubing run on discharge may be too long. 6. Clogged Foot Valve strainer. Failure to Run 1. Pump not turned on or plugged in. 2. EPU failure. 3. Pulser failure. Excessive Pump Output 1. Syphoning. (Pumping downhill without a multi-function valve). 2. Little or no pressure at injection point. 3. Excessive strokes per minute

52 Manufacturer s Manuals SOLUTION 1. Cut about 1 in (25 mm) off tubing and then replace as before. 2. Replace fitting if cracked. Carefully hand tighten fittings. DO NOT USE PIPE WRENCH. Once fitting comes into contact with seal ring, tighten an additional 1/8 or 1/4 turn. 3. Replace balls and seal rings (see Section 8.3) Spare Parts (SP-#). 4. Consult your local distributor for alternate materials. 1. Injection pressure cannot exceed pump s maximum pressure. See pump data plate. 2. Worn seal rings or cartridge valves may need replacement (see Section 9.3). Spare Parts (SP- #), or RPM Pro Pac kit. 3. Replace Liquifram (see Section 9.2). 4. Check zero on pump/re-zero pump (see Section 10.0). 5. Longer tubing runs may create frictional losses sufficient to reduce pump s pressure rating. Consult factory for more information. 6. Remove Foot Valve strainer when pumping slurries or when solution particles cause strainer to clog. 1. Turn on or plug in pump. 2. Disassemble pump and measure the resistance of the EPU across the EPU wires. Resistance reading should be in accordance to the EPU Resistance Chart (see Section 12.0). Also, check EPU leads to ground. Consult supplier or factory. 3. The pulser should be replaced if EPU checks out OK. Consult supplier or factory. 1. Move injection point to a pressurized location or install an LMI 4-FV (see Section 4.4). 2. If pressure at injection point is less than 25 psi (1.7 Bar), an LMI 4-FV should be installed (see Section 4.4). 3. Replace pulser or resistor. Consult factory

60 Manufacturer s Manuals Information Sheet Liquid End Installation Instructions When pumping solutions, make certain that all tubing is securely attached to the fittings. It is recommended that tubing or pipe lines be shielded to prevent possible injury in case of rupture or accidental damage. Always wear protective clothing and face shield when working on or near your metering pump. Spare Parts: LMI recommends replacing the elastomeric components of the pump on an annual basis. RPM Pro Pacs and spare part kits are available from your local LMI Master Stocking Distributor. Tubing Connections Your LMI pump will be supplied with one of the following tubing connections. Before installation, all tubing must be cut with a clean square end. Valve and head connections from the factory may be capped. Remove and discard these caps before connecting the tubing.

61 Manufacturer s Manuals Foot Valve/Suction Tubing Installation The Foot Valve acts as a check valve to keep the pump primed in suction lift applications. The foot valve is designed to be submersed in the solution tank or drum and must sit in a vertical position at the bottom. Position approximately 2 inches (50 mm) off the bottom if the tank or drum contains sediment. The ceramic weight, when installed, positions the foot valve in a vertical position. NOTE: Pump models equipped with high-viscosity liquid ends are not equipped with foot valves. Flooded suction is recommended. A 1/2" NPT connector is included for flooded suction installations. 1. Cut a piece of suction tubing to a length so that the foot valve hangs just above the bottom of the solution container. Maximum recommended vertical suction lift is 5 feet (1.5 m). 2. Attach the foot valve to one end of the suction tubing. 3. Slide the ceramic weight over the tubing end until it contacts the top of the foot valve coupling nut. 4. Place foot valve and tubing into the solution tank. Check that the foot valve is vertical and approximately 2 inches (50 mm) from the bottom of the tank or drum (see illustration). Connect the other end of the tubing to the suction side (bottom side) of the pump head (see Tubing Connections). Multi-Function Valve Installation To install the multi-function valve, remove the yellow screw cap on the top of the pump head and screw in the valve so that it contacts the seal ring. An additional 1/8 1/4 turn may be necessary to prevent leakage. 1/4" O.D. tubing connects to the side of the valve and acts as a return line to the solution tank. To ensure priming, this tubing must NOT be submerged in the solution. This return line tubing must be secured to ensure pumped solution will safely return to supply tank. Connector To Solution Tank or Drum 1/4" Tubing 1 Inch (25 mm) Bottom Tubing in Fitting Push and hold while tightening connector.

(50 mm) for Sediment Accumulation CORRECT Foot Valve Tubing Connection Use Ceramic Weight Foot Valve Must Remain Vertical (pumps equipped with multi-function valves) It is possible to depressurize the discharge line and pump head without removal of tubing or loosening of fittings. 1. Be sure injection check valve is properly installed and is operating. If a gate valve or globe valve has been installed downstream of injection check valve, it should be closed. Be certain relief tubing from the multi-function valve is connected and run to solution reservoir. 2. Turn Pressure Relief knob 1/4 turn. 3. Open the anti-syphon valve, if equipped 4. The discharge line is now depressurized. 5. If injection check valve is of higher elevation than pump head, disconnecting tubing at the injection check valve end will allow air to enter and cause solution to drain back to tank.
