14.6 TFD
This pump is equipped with a Tube Failure Detecting System which is designed to stop the
pump and provide an output alarm (see Output menu) in the event pump the tube should
rupture and chemical enters the pump head.
This patented system is capable of detecting the presence of a large number of chemicals
including Sodium Hypochlorite (Chlorine), Hydrochloric (muriatic) Acid, Sodium Hydroxide,
and many others. The system will not be triggered by water (rain, condensation, etc.) or sili-
cone oil (roller and tubing lubricant).
If a TFD alarm occurs, the pump will stop and the screen will turn red with “TFD”
If TFD alarm occurs:
1. Remove the pump head cover, and the
pump tube and roller assembly.
2. Check for fluids at the bottom of the
pump head.
5. Carefully clean the chemical out of the
pump head. Ensure to remove all the
chemical traces from the sensor
probes.
3. Replace Tubing
3. Reinstall only the pump head cover.
4. Turn on the pump by pressing the
START button.
6. Reinstall the roller assembly and
tubing.
7. Reinstall the pump head cover.
8. Press the START button to clear the
alarm condition.
