i Completeness against the shipping document / purchase order
i For any evidence of shipping damage.
Shortages or damage should be reported immediately to the carrier and your PULSAFEEDER
representative.
4. Storage Instructions
The DLCM 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 DLCM 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 DLCM 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 DLCM is removed from the pump, it should be
stored in the same pump mounted orientation. After removal of the DLCM from the PULSAR
metering pump, seal the eccentric box opening with a dust and moisture proof material. If the DLCM
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 DLCM for periods of longer than twelve months is not recommended. If extended
storage is unavoidable the DLCM 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.
