CAUTION 

 
 

In  addition  to  this  instruction,  there  is  a  project  specific  mechanical  drawings,  a  project  specific 
electrical drawing and a metering pump instruction manual specific for the pump furnished with this 
unit. Refer to the metering pump instruction manual for pump start-up information. 

 

Check nameplate for power requirements. Be certain power supply matches these requirements. 

 

Electrical  requirements  available  are:  115V-1  phase-50/60  Hz  or  220V-  1  phase.-50/60  Hz  depending  on 
how the unit was ordered. 

 

Standard  units  are  furnished  with  a  cord  and  plug.  The  plug  is  used  as  an  electrical  disconnect  during 
maintenance. A grounded receptacle must be used. The cord may be removed and the unit hardwired to the 
power supply as long as a disconnect with lockout is provided.  

 

For the proper handling of liquid polymers or other chemicals, contact the chemical supplier. 

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: 

The pump stroke length should only be adjusted while it is operating. Damage to the pump can occur if 
adjustments are attempted when pump is not cycling. 

 

IMPORTANT NOTES: 

All  Polymaster  units  built  between October  of  2001  and  October  of 2012  require  a  minimum  of 
22psi.  outlet  back  pressure  for  continuous  operation.  Without  sufficient  back  pressure,  system 
will display fault condition. 

For previous version of the Polymaster Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual 
order P/N ZL107874.
