Wand and Hose 

Caution: 

The chemical injector is sensitive to pressure. If the nozzles 

are damaged or are the wrong size, the injector may not work. If the hose is 
damaged or kinked (e.g., ran over by a forklift), it may also cause the injector to 
malfunction. Non-standard piping or the addition of valves and elbows may also 
cause injection problems.  

Black wand will be used for Rinse ONLY. Do not use the black wands for 
chemical application. 

Consult a PEM representative before purchasing additional or replacement 
wands as the color representation varies.
