OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SUPPLY TANK FOR CHEMICALS
Plastic containers must be designed and manufactured for this purpose. Your
container must be designed for whatever chemical you are using. Do not
place the container in direct sunlight. Ultraviolet (UV) rays attack many
materials which can cause them to become brittle.
OPERATION - MAINTENANCE
Once every week inspect tubing, and accessory valves and fittings. Inspect
all parts for signs of leaks, swelling, cracking, corrosion or discoloration. Also,
inspect the tubing for elasticity.
Cracking, crazing, discoloration, etc., during the first week of operation are
signs of severe chemical attack. If this occurs, immediately remove the fluid
from the injector. Determine which parts are being attacked and replace with
parts that have been manufactured using more suitable material.
The pump is designed to perform in a wide variety of installations. However,
the service life of the pump will vary, depending on many factors such as;
fluid , temperature, pressure, etc. Because of the wide variety of installations,
the pump has been factory tested for pressure and performance using water
only. Do not use chemicals if you are not satisfied they are compatible with
the pumps construction.
The pump tube assemblies are designed for maximum service life. However,
the service life can be adversely affected by the chemicals used, the amount
of back pressure, the motor RPM, and temperature.
The pump tube assemble should be inspected frequently. Replace the tube if
any cracking, leaking or loss of feed rate occurs.
THREADLESS AND THREADED INJECTORS
The most common problem is calcium and/or lime build up inside the injector,
foot valve and tubing. This is basic material and can easily be removed by
running a weak solution of muriatic acid through it. After flushing the pump
with clear water, place the injection fitting and foot valve with the tubing
attached in a container of weak (1-5) solution of commercial grade muriatic,
then run the pump for a few minutes. After flushing out the wetted parts with
clear water again, return pump to service. CAUTION do not allow acid and
chlorine products to come together. This is VERY DANGEROUS to your
health!

This volumetric test will take into
account installation factors such as
line pressure, fluid viscocity, specific
gravity, etc. This test is the most
accurate for measuring the injector’s
output in an individual installation.
1. With the injector installed under
normal operating conditions, place
the foot valve/strainer in a large
graduated container.
2. Fill the container with the
chemical to be injected and run the
unit until all air is removed from the
suction line.
3. Refill the container, if necessary,
and with the foot valve in the
solution, note the amount of
chemical in the container.
4. Run the injector for a measured
amount of time and note the amount
of chemical injected.
ADJUSTING THE OUTPUT
A. The pause control knob adjusts the cycle timer’s time on. The model A-1600T
standard cycle timer set at one minute. (+-10%) Other cycle lengths are available.
B. To adjust the amount of time on, turn the pause control knob to the correct
setting. ½ equals approximately 30 seconds on. 3/4 equals approximately 45
seconds on, etc.

Hold the tube in your right hand with
“R” facing you. Note that the fitting marked “L” is
facing downward and away from you to the left. The
tube is purposely twisted to allow for the difference
between the inside length and the outside length of
the tube when installed in the pump head. Hold the
tube with your thumbs over the “R” and the “L.”
the fitting marked
The tube will naturally curve toward the rear of the
pump head. The curve in the tubing is a patented
feature which prevents the pump tube from running
outward and against the cover.
Attach the plastic tube fitting (marked “R”) into the right
side of the pump head.. Push the groove of the fitting
straight into the slot. With the pump running, hold the
fitting marked “L’ with your left hand (your thumb should
be covering the “L”). At the same time, use your right
thumb to guide the tube into the pump head.
With the tubing riding well between the rollers, push the
fitting marked “L” into the chamber lock. Be sure both
fittings are pushed all the way in place.
TUBE CONNECTIONS INSTRUCTIONS
1. Connect the flow indicator end of the suction tube to pump fitting marked
“R.” Indicator to be vertical.
2. Trim the other end so strainer assembly will hang about one or two inches
above bottom of solution tank (sediment space).
3. Slide the ceramic weight over the end and attach the foot strainer
assembly.
4. Connect the discharge tube to the “L” fitting then to the injector fitting.
NOTE: A threaded injection fitting is available. Fitting is equipped with 1/4”
and 1/2” NPT threads.

THE PUMP TUBE ASSEMBLY
A. The A-1600 Pump Tube Assemblies are designed for a service life of at least
800 hours. However, the service life can be adversely affected by the chemicals
used, the amount of back pressure, the motor RPM, and temperature. The
service life of 800 hours is based on the A-002-6 tube tested with water at 70F.
(21C), 0PSI, 45 RPM gearbox.
B. The pump tube assembly should be inspected frequently. Replace the tube if
any cracking, leaking or loss of feed rate occurs.
NOTE: Place 1 or 2 drops of silicone oil on each roller to lubricate new pump
tubes or when required.
CLEANING
A. The most common problems occur from deposits that can build up in the foot
valve, injection fitting and pump tube assembly, (wetted parts. Keeping these
parts clean will dramatically increase the life of the injector.
B. For simple maintenance cleaning, remove the injection fitting and footvalve /
strainer. Disassemble and clean the individual parts with clean water.
With these fittings removed, set the pause control to ON and run the injector
using clean water.
C. For removing harsh deposits that can build up in the wetted parts.....
1. Flush the system by pumping clean water to remove any chemicals that may
be present.
2. Run a weak solutions of muriatic acid (5%) through the wetted parts.
3. Again flush the system with clean water.
CAUTION
MURIATIC ACID WHEN MIXED WITH OTHER CHEMICALS CAN BE
EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. ALWAYS FLUSH THE SYSTEM WITH CLEAN
WATER BEFORE AND AFTER YOU ACID WASH.
D. When changing the pump tube assemble, always wipe the pumphead to
remove any debris. Clean with soap and water if necessary.
