EQUIPMENT

The system is comprised of four basic components:

1) Double Diaphragm Pump

2) Two stage air filter/regulator

3) Well level control valve
4) Hoses and fi ings

1)

 

DOUBLE  DIAPHRAGM  PUMP  (DDP)

•  DDP

    -  The 

Double  Diaphragm  Pump  (DDP)

  can  only  be  used 

above  ground  and  pulls  fluid  from  22  feet  or  less  below  ground  at 

sea  level.   

 

Needle  valve  - 

The 

DDP

  has  an  adjustable 

needle  valve

  to 

control  its  rate  of  cycling  and  quick  connect  fi ings  for  both 
power  air  and  fluid  in  and  out.  (See  Figure  1)

2)

 

TWO  STAGE  FILTER/REGULATOR

5  and  0.01  micron  air  filters

 

Two  filters  mounted  on  the  aluminum  plate 

remove  particulates,  oil  vapor  and  water  droplets  from  compressed  air.    The 

pump  draws  air  from  the  5  micron  filter.    The  level  sensor  draws  air  from 

the  0.01  micron  air  filter.
