3. Equipment Inspection
When you receive your order, check all equipment for:
• Completeness against the shipping document / purchase order
• Evidence of shipping damage.
Shortages or damage should be reported immediately to the carrier and your PULSAFEEDER
representative.
4. Storage
The ADV can be successfully stored for extended periods. The key to this success is temperature and
humidity control.
Be certain to follow the additional storage instructions provided in the IOM for the PULSAR
®
or PULSAR
Shadow ® pumps, and also those included in the IOM for any controllers (DLC, DLCM, ECA) that are
attached to the pump.
4.1 Short Term (0 - 12 months)
The ADV should be stored in a temperature and humidity controlled environment. It is preferable to
keep the temperature constant in the range of -18 to 60
° Celsius (0 to 140° Fahrenheit). The relative
humidity should be 0 to 90% non-condensing.
If the ADV is installed on the pump, it should not be removed during this period – provided the above
conditions can be applied to the pump as well. If the ADV was shipped in its own carton, it should be
stored in that carton.
4.2 Long Term (12 months or more)
Storage of the ADV for periods of longer than twelve months is not recommended. If extended storage
is unavoidable the ADV should be stored in accordance with those conditions stipulated for Short Term
Storage. In addition, a porous bag of 85g (3 oz) silica gel or similar desiccant should be placed inside
the ADV enclosure. The cover should be re-installed to seal the desiccant within the enclosure. The
conduit connection must be tightly capped.
5. Retrofit
Retrofit kits including the HypoPump2 ® reagent head assembly, the ADV, and other necessary parts
and hardware, are available. These allow the conversion of an existing Pulsafeeder PULSAR ® and
PULSAR Shadow
®
metering pumps to a HypoPump2
®
. This conversion can be performed in the field.
Converting from the HypoPump
®
to the HypoPump
®
2 does not have any port-to-port changes. See
the Hypo Valve Replacement Instructions within this IOM.
