Pump
5.1
The metering pump is an oscillating diaphragm pump, the stroke length of
which can be adjusted. An electric motor drives it. The slide rod transmits
the stoke motion to the diaphragms.
Illustration of the stroke movement
The stroke movement of the displacement body is continuously detected
and regulated so that the stroke is performed according to a previously set
metering profile - see chapter.
‘Metering’ ‘setting’
.
The following metering profiles are available:
nNormal
nMetering optimised
nPriming optimised
Every metering profile is ineffective below the switchover frequency for Start/Stop mode.
Normal
Fig. 9: Stroke movement at a) maximum stroke length and b) reduced
stroke length.
With a metering optimised metering profile, the discharge stroke is elon‐
gated and the suction stroke is executed as quickly as possible. This set‐
ting is for example suitable for those applications that require optimum
mixing ratios and the most continuous chemical mixing possible.

Functional description
With a priming optimised metering profile, the suction stroke is elongated
as much as possible, which facilitates the precise and problem-free
metering of viscous and gaseous media. Select this setting to minimise the
NPSH value as well.
Liquid end
The diaphragm (2) hermetically shuts off the pump volume of the dosing
head (4) towards the outside. The suction valve (1) closes as soon as the
diaphragm (2) is moved in to the dosing head (4) and the feed chemical
flows through the discharge valve (3) out of the dosing head. The dis‐
charge valve (3) closes as soon as the diaphragm (2) is moved in the
opposite direction due to the vacuum pressure in the dosing head and
fresh feed chemical flows through the suction valve (1) into the dosing
head. One cycle is thus completed.
Turning the rotary dial (3) on the bleed valve to "open" causes it to open
and the liquid end can be bled. Or it is used as a priming aid for priming
against pressure. The feed chemical flows out through the hose connec‐
tion (5), e.g. into a storage tank.
The integral relief valve operates in the "close" position as a simple,
directly controlled relief valve. As soon as the pressure exceeds the pres‐
sure value, which is preset using the large spring (1), it lifts the ball (2).
The feed chemical flows out through the hose connection (5), e.g. into a
storage tank.

Functional description
The integral relief valve can only protect the motor and the gear, and then
only against impermissible positive pressure that is caused by the
metering pump itself. It cannot protect the system against positive pres‐
sure.
The integral relief valve works as a bleed valve as soon as the rotary dial
(3) is turned to "open": The valve opens and the liquid end can be bled. Or
it is used as a priming aid for priming against pressure.

that the system is arranged ergonomically.
When doing so, consider the available cable length.
Prevent tripping hazards.
Refer to the relevant dimensional drawing for the dimensions of the HMI
and fixing holes.
CAUTION!
Warning of faulty operation
–Do not install the HMI and cable too close to devices
and cabling that emit strong electrical interference.

7.1 Installation, hydraulic
CAUTION!
Danger of injury to personnel and material damage
Disregard of technical data during installation may lead
to personal injuries or damage to property.
–Observe the technical data - refer to the "Technical
data" chapter and, where applicable, the operating
instructions for the accessories.
WARNING!
Danger of fire with flammable feed chemicals
–Only metering pumps with the identity code option
"Multi-layer safety diaphragm with rupture signalling
with electrical signal" are permitted to meter flam‐
mable media, with back pressures over 2 bar and if
the operator puts in place the appropriate safety pre‐
cautions.
WARNING!
Warning of feed chemical reactions to water
Feed chemicals that should not come into contact with
water may react to residual water in the liquid end that
may originate from works testing.
–Blow the liquid end dry with compressed air through
the suction connector.
–
Then flush the liquid end with a suitable medium
through the suction connector.
WARNING!
The following measures are beneficial when working
with highly aggressive or hazardous feed chemicals:
–Install a bleed valve with recirculation in the storage
tank.
Install a shut-off valve on the discharge or suction
–
side.
CAUTION!
Warning of feed chemical spraying around
PTFE seals, which have already been used / com‐
pressed, can no longer reliably seal a hydraulic connec‐
tion.
–New, unused PTFE seals must always be used.
26
Installation
CAUTION!
Suction problems are possible
The valves may no longer close properly with feed
chemicals with a particle size of greater than 0.3 mm.
–Install a suitable filter in the suction line.
CAUTION!
Warning of the discharge line rupturing
With a closed discharge line (e.g. from a clogged dis‐
charge line or by closing a valve), the pressure that the
metering pump generates can reach several times more
than the permissible pressure of the system or the
metering pump. This could lead to lines rupturing
resulting in dangerous consequences with aggressive or
hazardous feed chemicals.
–Install a relief valve that limits the pressure of the
pump to the maximum permissible operating pres‐
sure of the system.
CAUTION!
Warning against rupturing of suction or discharge lines
Hose lines with insufficient pressure rating may rupture.
–Only use hose lines with the required pressure
rating.
CAUTION!
Uncontrolled flow of feed chemical
Feed chemical can press through the metering pump in
an uncontrolled manner in the event of excessive pri‐
ming pressure on the suction side of the metering pump.
–Do not exceed the maximum permissible priming
pressure for the metering pump or
Set up the installation properly.
–
CAUTION!
Warning about lines coming loose
If suction, discharge and relief lines are installed incor‐
rectly, they can loosen / disconnect from the pump con‐
nection.
–Only use original hoses with the specified hose
diameter and wall thickness.
Only use clamp rings and hose nozzles that fit the
–
respective hose diameter.
–Always connect the lines without mechanical ten‐
sion.

corrugated insert
CAUTION!
Warning of leaks
Leaks can occur on the pump connection depending on
the insert used.
–The pump is supplied with PTFE moulded compo‐
site seals with a flare, which are used for the pump
connectors, which seal the connectors between
grooved pump valves and ProMinent grooved
inserts - see
Ä Further information on page 26
.
–Use an elastomer flat seal in the event that an
unflared insert is used (e.g. third party part) - see
Ä Further information on page 26
Precise metering is only possible when the back
–
.
pressure is maintained above 1 bar at all times.
–
If metering at atmospheric pressure, a back pres‐
sure valve should be used to create a back pressure
of approx. 1.5 bar.

insert

CAUTION!
Warning of backflow
A back pressure valve, a spring-loaded injection valve, a
relief valve, a foot valve or a liquid end do not represent
absolutely leak-tight closing elements.
–Use a shut-off valve, a solenoid valve or a vacuum
breaker for this purpose.
CAUTION!
To check the pressure conditions in the piping system it
is recommended that connecting options for a manom‐
eter are provided close to the suction and pressure con‐
nector.

CAUTION!
Connect the pipelines to the pump so that no residual
forces act on the pump, e.g. due to the offsetting, weight
or expansion of the line.
Only connect steel or stainless steel piping via a flexible
piping section to a plastic liquid end.

Integral relief valve or integral bleeder
valve
Installation
WARNING!
Product can be dangerously contaminated
Only with "Physiologically safety with regard to wetted
materials” version:
If the integral bleed valve or the integral relief valve
opens, the feed chemical comes into contact with phys‐
iologically harmful seals.
–Do not route feed chemical that escapes from the
integral bleed valve or the integral relief valve back
into the process.
CAUTION!
Danger due to incorrect use of the integral relief valve
The integral relief valve can only protect the motor and
the gear, and then only against impermissible positive
pressure that is caused by the metering pump itself. It
cannot protect the system against positive pressure.
–Protect the motor and gear of the system against
positive pressure using other mechanisms.
–Protect the system against illegal positive pressure
using other mechanisms.
CAUTION!
Warning of feed chemical spraying around
If no overflow line is connected to the integral relief valve
or the integral bleeder valve, feed chemical will spray out
of the hose connector as soon as the relief valve opens.
–Always connect an overflow line to the integral relief
valve or the integral bleeder valve and feed it back
into the storage tank or - if required by the regula‐
tions - into a special storage tank.
CAUTION!
Danger of cracking
Cracks on the PVT liquid end can occur if a metal over‐
flow line is connected to the relief valve.
–Never connect a metal overflow line to the relief
valve.
CAUTION!
Danger of the integral relief valve failing
The integral relief valve no longer operates reliably with
feed chemicals that have a viscosity of greater than 200
mPa s.
–Only use the integral relief valve with feed chemicals
that have a viscosity of up to 200 mPa s.

Installation
Fig. 21: Permissible alignment of the relief
valve
CAUTION!
Warning of leaks
Feed chemical, which remains in the overflow line at the
relief valve or bleeder valve, can attack the valve or
cause it to leak
–Route the overflow line with a continuous slope and
moreover with the hose nozzle pointed downwards see .
If the overflow line is fed into the suction line, the bleed
function is blocked.
Therefore lead the overflow line back into the storage
tank.
When operating the integral relief valve close to the
opening pressure, a minimal overflow into the overflow
line can occur.
Diaphragm rupture sensor
7.1.1 Basic installation notes
Safety notes
CAUTION!
Danger resulting from unnoticed diaphragm rupture
If the pump has been ordered with an electric diaphragm
rupture sensor, it still has to be installed.
–Screw the enclosed diaphragm rupture sensor into
the liquid end.
CAUTION!
Warning of unnoticed diaphragm rupture
Only above approximately 2 bar system back pressure is
a signal generated in the event of the rupture of a dia‐
phragm.
–Only rely on the diaphragm rupture sensor with back
pressures of greater than 2 bar.
Or install a back pressure valve and set it to a min‐
imum of 2 bar – if the installation permits this.
CAUTION!
Danger resulting from rupturing hydraulic components
Hydraulic components can rupture if the maximum per‐
missible operating pressure is exceeded.
–Never allow the metering pump to run against a
closed shut-off device.
With metering pumps without integral relief valve:
–
Install a relief valve in the discharge line.
