Overview
Pump characteristics, features and part names are described
in this section.
Introduction
Pump structure & Operating principle
The EJ series is a diaphragm metering pump which consists of a pump head
and a drive unit with a built-in controller. A diaphragm is directly driven by electromagnetic force.
Principle of operation
The pulse signal via the PCB generates the electromagnetic force to make
reciprocating motion with the assistance of the spring force. The reciprocating
motion is transferred to a diaphragm through a plunger and then volumetric
change occurs in the pump head. This action transfers liquid along with pump
head valve action.

Precautions for ON-OFF control by a mechanical relay
This pump is equipped with CPU. Observe the following points when ON-
OFF control is performed:
• Do not turn ON/OFF power voltage more than six times per hour.
• When using a mechanical relay for ON-OFF operation, its contact capac-
ity should be 5A or more. Contact point may fail if it is less than 5A.
• If a mechanical relay with the contact capacity of 5A is used, the maxi-
mum allowable ON/OFF operation is about 150,000 times. The contact
capacity should be 10A or more when making ON-OFF operation over
150,000 times or sharing a power source with a large capacity equip-
ment. Otherwise a contact point may fail by surge voltage.
• Use a solid state relay (SSR) as necessary (such as the OMRON G3F).
See manufacturer's catalogues for detail.

Operation
This section describes pump operation and programming.
Run the pump after plumbing and wiring are completed.
Before operation
Check a ow rate, tubing and wiring. And then perform degassing and ow rate
adjustment before starting operation.
Points to be checked
Before operation, check if...
• Liquid level in a supply tank is enough.
• Tubing is securely connected and is free from leakage and clogging.
• Discharge/suction valves are opened.
• A power voltage is in the allowable range.
• Electrical wiring is correct and is free from the risk of short circuit and electri-
cal leakage.
Retightening of pump head xing bolts
Important
The pump head xing bolts may loosen when plastic parts creep due to tem-
perature change in storage or in transit, and this can lead to leakage. Be sure
to retighten the bolts evenly to 2.16N•m in diagonal order before starting opera-
tion.
*Tighten xing bolts once every three months.
26
Before operation
■ Use of hexagon wrench instead of a torque wrench
Fasten the xing bolts as tight as can be by the hand with the straight long part
of a hexagon wrench (a) and further turn the bolts clockwise 90 degrees with
the short part (b).

Degassing
The gas needs to be expelled from the pump and tubing by degassing. Normal
performance can not be obtained with gas in the pump. Conduct degassing in
the following cases.
• When the pump starts to run for the rst time
• When a ow rate is too low
• After liquid is replaced in a supply tank
• After a long period of stoppage
• After maintenance and inspection
Operation
NOTE
• Both gas and chemical come out together through an air bleed tube. Place the end of
the tube in a supply tank or a container.
• Some chemicals may cause skin trouble or damage component parts. When your
hand or component parts get wet with chemical liquid, wipe off immediately.
