1.6. Example of installation
1.6.1. Standard pump
1.6.2. TF pump
The pulsation dampener must be installed according to the sketch. It can be connected with a
nipple immediately after the pump outlet, or placed independent of the pump with a flexible
hose between the pump and the dampener. Makes sure that the dampener does not cause any
tension or strain to the pump. The air hose must be connected to the pump air hose with a T-
connection, between the pump and filter-regulator (See sketch).
ATTENTION! The T-connection must be installed after the filter-regulator but before the
needle valve. It is also mandatory that the air to the dampener has the same flow and pressure
as the pump!
In order to ensure the most effective pulsation dampening the dampener should be installed
not further than five times the diameter of the pipeline from the discharge flange of the pump
L<5*Ø
NOTE!
It is recommended to install a check / shut off valve after the dampener. If the pump and
dampener are placed in a system with other pumps or in a pressurized system it is essential to
cut the dampener form the installation and relief the pressure from the piping. In the case where
the dampener is not cut off, the diaphragm is permanently under pressure from the liquid side
without any support from the air side thus leaving it unbalanced resulting in premature damage
of the diaphragm.
