3. Equipment Inspection
When you receive your order, check all equipment for:
•
Completeness against the shipping document / purchase order
•
For any evidence of shipping damage.
Shortages or damage should be reported immediately to the carrier and your PULSAFEEDER
representative.
4. Storage Instructions
The DLC can be successfully stored for extended periods. The key to this success is temperature and
humidity control.
4.1 Storage Length
4.1.1 Short Term (0 - 12 months)
The DLC 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.
The adjustment knob should be rotated in alternate directions by hand one full revolution every six
months.
If the DLC 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 DLC is removed from the pump, it should be
stored in the same pump mounted orientation. After removal of the DLC from the PULSAR metering
pump, seal the eccentric box opening with a dust and moisture proof material. If the DLC was shipped
in its own carton, it should be stored in that carton.
4.1.2 Long Term (12 months or more)
Storage of the DLC for periods of longer than twelve months is not recommended. If extended storage
is unavoidable the DLC 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 beneath
the wiring access cover. The cover should be re-installed to seal the desiccant within the enclosure.
The three conduit connections must be tightly capped.
