1. Introduction
The OMNI
®
metering pump is positive displacement, mechanically operated reciprocating diaphragm
pump. Each pump consists of a power end and a process end separated by a PTFE faced diaphragm.
Individual pumps will vary in appearance due to various liquid ends and accessories; however, the basic
principles of operation remain the same.
2. Principles Of Operation
Figure 1, reagent head operation
A diaphragm reciprocates at a preset stroke length, displacing an exact volume of process fluid.
Diaphragm retraction causes the product to enter through the suction check valve. Diaphragm advance
causes the discharge of an equal amount of the product through the discharge check valve.
2
2.1 Reagent Head Assembly
The typical reagent head assembly consists of reagent head, diaphragm, and suction and discharge
cartridge check valves. This assembly is the only part of the pump to contact the process liquid;
consequently, maintenance is critical to pump performance.
2.2 Control Assembly
The OMNI
®
pump incorporates a lost motion style of stroke length adjustment to limit diaphragm
travel during the suction portion of each stroke. The stroke length setting is indicated by a (0% –
100%) scale located on the stroke adjustment assembly.
Stroke length is changed by loosening the locking screw and turning the hand knob. This turns a
mechanism, which limits rearward travel of the diaphragm. Refer to Section 6.2 for further
information.
For automatic flow rate control, users can consider the Pulsafeeder MPC speed based control system,
please contact your local Pulsafeeder dealer or representative for more information.
2.3 Gear Ratio Assembly
OMNI
®
pumps are driven by an electric motor mounted on the motor adaptor input flange. The
motor drives a set of worm gears that convert rotational speed into torque. They, in turn, power the
eccentric shaft assembly that converts rotary motion into reciprocating motion.

3. Equipment Inspection
Check all equipment for completeness against the order and for any evidence of shipping damage.
Shortages or damage must be reported immediately to the carrier and your authorized representative or
distributor of OMNI
®
pumps.
4. Storage
4.1.1 Short Term
Storage of your OMNI
®
pump for up to 12 months is considered short-term. The recommended
short-term storage procedures are:
a) Store the pump indoors at room temperature in a dry environment.
b) If required by the operating environment, take precautions to prevent entry of water or humid air
into the eccentric enclosure.
c) Prior to startup, perform a complete inspection and then start up in accordance with instructions
in this manual.
4.1.2 Long Term
Every twelve months, in addition to the above short-term procedures, power up the motor and operate
the pump for a minimum of one hour. It is not necessary to have liquid in the reagent head during
this operation, but the suction and discharge ports must be open to atmosphere.
After twelve months of storage, Pulsafeeder’s warranty cannot cover items that are subject to
deterioration with age, such as seals, gaskets, and diaphragms. If the pump has been in storage longer
than 12 months it is recommended that these items be inspected and replaced as necessary prior to
startup. Materials and labor to replace this class of item under this circumstance are the purchaser’s
responsibility. Consult your local Pulsafeeder representative for assistance in obtaining parts and
service for your pump.
5. Installation
5.1 Location
When selecting an installation site or designing a chemical feed system, consideration should be given
to access for routine maintenance.
OMNI
®
pumps are designed to operate indoors and outdoors, but it is desirable to provide a hood or
covering for outdoor service. External heating is required if ambient temperatures below 0° C (32° F)
are anticipated, especially if pumps are not in continuous duty. Check with the factory if concerned
with the suitability of the operating environment.
The pump must be rigidly bolted to a solid and flat foundation to minimize vibration, which can loosen
connections. When the pump is bolted down, care must be taken to avoid distorting the base and
affecting alignments. The pump must be level within 5°. This will assure that the check valves can
operate properly.
4
5.2 Piping System
1. All systems should include a pressure relief valve on the discharge side, to protect piping and process
equipment, including the pump, from excess process pressures. An external relief valve is
required! There should be no devices capable of restricting flow (such as a valve) located between
the pump and the relief device.
2. Shutoff valves and unions (or flanges) on suction and discharge piping are recommended. This
permits check valve inspection without draining long runs of piping, making periodic maintenance
and inspection easier.
Shutoff valves should be of the same size as connecting pipe. Ball valves are preferred since they
offer minimum flow restriction.
3. Suction systems should include an inlet strainer, if appropriate for the product being pumped. Pump
check valves are susceptible to dirt and other solid contaminants, and any accumulation can cause
malfunction. The strainer should be located between the suction shutoff valve and the pump suction
valve. It must be sized to accommodate the flow rate and the anticipated level of contamination. A
100 mesh screen size is generally recommended.
4. Vacuum/pressure gauges in the suction and discharge lines are helpful in order to check system
operation. Gauges should be fitted with protective shutoff valves for isolation while not in use.
5. Piping weight must not be supported by valve housings or other portions of the reagent head, as the
resulting stresses can cause leaks. If appropriate, provide for thermal expansion and contraction so
that no excess force or moments are applied to the pump.
6. When making process connections, ensure that the check valve assemblies do not rotate as the
threaded connections are secured. It is critical, especially with plastic construction, that the check
valves not be too tight into the reagent head. The threaded connection between the check valve
assembly and the regent head uses on o-ring seal and does not require sealing tape or any other
sealant.
7. In piping assembly, use a sealing compound chemically compatible with the process material. Users
of sealing tape are cautioned to ensure that the entering pipe thread ends are not taped, and that tape is
removed from previously-used threads to the maximum practical extent prior to re-use. Both new and
existing piping should be cleaned, preferably by flushing with a clean liquid (compatible with process
material) and blown out with air, prior to connection to the pump. Debris from the piping system that
prevents proper check valve operation is a common startup issue.
8. Note that for pumps which utilize cartridge-type check valve assemblies, no thread tape or sealant is
required on the threads which secure the cartridge assembly to the pump reagent head. This area is
sealed with o-rings integral to the cartridge. Sealant on these threads can actually degrade sealing
capability.

5.3 Suction Pressure Requirements
Although OMNI
®
metering pumps have some suction lift capability, a flooded suction (i.e., suction
pressure higher than atmospheric pressure) is preferable whenever possible. The pump should be
located as close as possible to the suction side reservoir or fluid supply source.
For fluid with a vapor pressure of 5 psia or less (at operating temperature) the wet suction lift capability
is approximately ten (10) feet. If this requirement is not met, the pump will not provide reliable,
accurate flow. In suction lift conditions, the use of a foot valve is recommended at the lowest point of
the pickup tube or pipe. Pumps under suction lift conditions may require some liquid priming before
they will operate reliably.
5.4 Discharge Pressure Requirements
All OMNI
®
metering pumps are designed for continuous service at the rated discharge pressure. If
system suction pressure exceeds discharge pressure (a condition sometimes described as “pumping
downhill”), flow would be generated (siphoning) in addition to that caused by the pump. This results in
a reduction in accuracy and loss of control over the metering process. To prevent this flow-through
condition, the discharge pressure must exceed suction pressure by at least 0.35 Bar (5 psi). This can be
achieved where necessary by the installation of a backpressure valve in the discharge line. Conditions
where the actual discharge pressure exceeds the pump’s rating are to be avoided as they will cause
damage to the pump components.

6. Equipment Startup
6.1 Fastener Inspection
All pump fasteners should be checked prior to pump operation, and occasionally during use. This
would include reagent head mounting bolts, motor mounting bolts, and the hardware that secures the
pump to its foundation. Most hardware can be checked simply to ensure it is not loose. However, utilize
the following values when checking reagent head bolt torque:

6.2 Output Adjustment
All OMNI
®
pumps have a hand wheel for manual stroke adjustment. The hand wheel can be adjusted to
any point from 0 to 100%. This value represents the stroke length setting and therefore the flow rate of
the pump relative to its maximum output.
1. Turn the red lock screw counterclockwise to release the
stroke lock. Making adjustments without releasing the
lock may damage the mechanism.
2. Adjust the hand wheel to the desired output.
a) The stroke barrel indicates stroke length in 20%
increments.
b) The hand wheel indicates stroke length in 1%
increments.
For example, to set the pump to 75% stroke length,
(starting from the factory default setting of 0%) turn the
hand wheel counter clockwise until he 60% indicator is
visible on the stroke barrel.
Continue the counter clockwise rotation until the hand
wheel indicator is at 15. Refer to Figure 4.
3. Turn the lock screw clockwise to lock the stroke adjustment
into position.
Adjustments can be made while the pump is at rest or
operating, although adjustments are easier to make
while the pump is in operation.

6.3 Priming the Reagent Head
1. When handling process liquids, follow all applicable personal and facility safety guidelines.
2. Ensure that the pump is ready for operation and that all process connections are secure.
3. Open the suction and discharge line shutoff valves.
4. If the piping system design and the storage tank are such that the product flows due to gravity through
the pump, reduce the discharge pressure and the system will self prime when the pump is started. In
the event the discharge line contains a significant amount of pressurized air or other gas, it may be
necessary to lower the discharge pressure to enable the pump to self-prime.
5. If the installation involves a suction lift, it may be necessary to prime the reagent head and suction
line. Operate the pump as in step 4 above, many times the pump will be capable of self priming. If it
does not begin to pump, remove the discharge valve assembly. Carefully fill the reagent head
through the discharge valve port with process (or compatible) liquid, and then reinstall the check
valve.
6. Start the pump at the zero stroke length setting and slowly increase the setting to 100 to prime the
pump. If this does not work, it will be necessary to fill the suction line.
7. Filling of the suction line will necessitate the use of a foot valve or similar device at the end of the
suction line so that liquid can be maintained above the reservoir level. Remove the suction valve
assembly, fill the line, replace the suction valve, then remove the discharge valve assembly and fill
the reagent head as described in Step (3) above. The pump will now self-prime when started up per
step (4) above. Use appropriate precautions if handling process fluid. Ensure that any other fluid
used for priming is compatible with the product that will be pumped.
Figure 5, process flow
8
6.4 Calibration
Figure 6, sample flow calibration curve
All metering pumps must be calibrated to accurately specify stroke length settings for required flow
rates.
A typical calibration chart is shown above. Although output is linear with respect to stroke length
setting, an increase in discharge pressure decreases output uniformly, describing a series of parallel
lines, one for each pressure (only two are shown).
The theoretical output flow rate at atmospheric discharge pressure is based on the displacement of the
diaphragm, stroke length and the stroking rate of the pump. With increasing discharge pressure there is
a corresponding decrease in output flow. Pumps are rated for a certain flow at a rated pressure (check
nameplate). Whenever possible, calibration should be performed under actual process conditions (i.e.,
the same or a similar process liquid at system operating pressure).
To construct a calibration chart, measure the flow rate several times at three or more stroke settings (i.e.,
25, 50, 75, and 100), plot these values on linear graph paper, and draw a best-fit line through the points.
For stable conditions, this line should predict settings to attain required outputs.
All users are encouraged to test the flow rate of their pump once installed in their system, to
ensure best accuracy and reliable operation.

Accurate records from the early stages of pump operation will indicate the type and levels of required
maintenance. A preventative maintenance program based on such records will minimize operational
problems. It is not possible to forecast the lives of wetted parts such as diaphragms and check valves.
Since corrosion rates and operational conditions affect functional material life, each metering pump must
be considered according to its particular service conditions.
The OMNI
®
KOPkit will contain all replacement parts normally used in a preventative maintenance
program. It is recommended that KOPkits and PULSAlube grease be kept available at all times.
7.1 Lubrication
OMNI
®
pumps are supplied completely lubricated from the factory. For optimum pump performance
under normal conditions, gear grease should be redistributed every 1500 hours. For severe service in
extreme temperatures or very dirty environments, this interval may be shorter.
1. Disconnect the power source to the drive motor, and relieve all pressure from the piping system.
2. Remove the side cover from the pump. Refer to Figure 7.
3. Redistribute grease onto gear and worm teeth. On DC2 and 3 pumps, force grease into the hole in the
end of the gear shaft using a screwdriver or putty knife. Primary lubrication points are called out in
Figure 7, below.
4. Replace the side gasket and cover.

diaphragms do not have a specific cycle life; however, the accumulation of foreign material
or debris sufficient to deform the diaphragm can eventually cause failure. Failure can also occur as a
result of system over pressure or chemical attack. Periodic diaphragm inspection and replacement are
recommended. Each user should perform regular inspections to determine the replacement interval
that is appropriate to their system conditions.
