7.0 How to Maintain the Pump
7.1 Routine Inspection and Maintenance
The pump requires very little maintenance. However, the pump and all
accessories should be checked regularly. This is especially important when
pumping chemicals. Inspect all components for signs of leaking, swelling,
cracking, discoloration or corrosion. Replace worn or damaged components
immediately.
Cracking, crazing, discoloration and the like during the first week of
operation are signs of severe chemical attack. If this occurs, immediately
remove the chemical from the pump. Determine which parts are being
attacked and replace them with parts that have been manufactured using
more suitable materials. The manufacturer does not assume responsibility
for damage to the pump that has been caused by chemical attack.
7.2 How to Clean the Pump
The pump will require occasional cleaning, especially the Injection fitting,
the Footvalve/Strainer, and the pump head valves. The frequency will
depend on the type and severity of service.
]
Inspect and replace the pumphead valves as required.
]
When changing the diaphragm, the pump head chamber and pump head
cover should be wiped free of any dirt and debris.
]
Periodically clean the injection/check valve assembly, especially when
injecting fluids that calcify such as sodium hypochlorite. These lime
deposits and other build ups can clog the fitting, increase the back pressure
and interfere with the check valve operation. See page 8.
]
Periodically clean the suction strainer. See page 8.
]
Periodically inspect the air vents located under the motor housing and in
the back on the rear housing cover. Clean if necessary.
7.3 500 Hour Service Warning Timer
The pump is equipped with a service warning timer. After approximately
500 hours of accumulated running time, the
SERVICE
icon will light. This is
a reminder that the pump should be inspected and maintenance performed if
necessary.
CAUTION: Proper eye and skin protection must be
worn when installing and servicing the pump.
