Requirements:
n
If necessary take protective measures.
n
Adhere to the material safety data sheet for the feed chemical.
n
Ensure that the system is at atmospheric pressure.
1.
Drain the liquid end: Purge the liquid end or turn it upside down;
flush through with a suitable medium.
2.
With the pump running, move the stroke adjustment dial to the stop
at 0 % stroke length.
ð
The drive axle is now difficult to turn.
3.
Switch off the pump.
4.
Remove the small single-hinge clamps and separate the hydraulic
connectors from the discharge and suction side.
5.
Unscrew the diaphragm rupture sensor from the dosing head.
6.
Suspend the dosing head from lifting straps, if necessary.
7.
Remove the 4 or 6 screws on the dosing head.
8.
Remove the dosing head.
9.
Check the condition of the diaphragm rupture sensor - see
Chapter 3.3.3 ‘Checking the condition of the diaphragm rupture
.
10.
Clean all parts - adapted to the conditions subsequently required.
11.
Place the dosing head with the screws onto the diaphragm - the
suction connector should be pointing downwards when the pump is
subsequently installed.
12.
Initially slightly tighten the screws, then tighten crosswise to 25 % of
the tightening torque (note the laser engraving) - see
13.
Screw the diaphragm rupture sensor into the dosing head.
14.
Start up the pump and adjust the stroke length to 100 %.
15.
Stop the pump and tighten the screws crosswise to 100 % of the
tightening torque. Tightening torque - see
16.
Start the pump and check for leaks at maximum pressure.
CAUTION!
Warning of escaping feed chemical
The liquid end may leak should it not be possible to
check the tightening torque of the screws.
–
Check the tightening torque of the screws after 24
hours of operation!
Tightening torque for dosing head screws: - note the laser engraving on
the surface of the dosing head.
Tighten the dosing head screws crosswise in two torque stages:
Level 1
Level 2
25 %
100%
