WASH GLAND ISOLATION PUMP HEADS are designed for hard to handle, sticky, air sensitive, and
crystal forming solutions that would normally tend to bind your piston. The gland ports are designed to
take an appropriate "barrier" fluid and wash the seal area of the pump to isolate it from the "problem" fluid
of the main metered flow. The glands are typically gravity fed or by use of low pressure. (Fig. 1) is a
general "W" wash gland set up.
CKC-W - Ceramic and fluorocarbon wetted surfaces - barbed gland adapters for 1/8" I.D. soft tubing -
Maximum temperature of 212ºF (100ºC) and pressure up to 60 psig (4.1 bar).
CSC-W - 316 SS and ceramic wetted surfaces - for use at temperatures to 350ºF (180ºC) and pressures
to 100 psig (6.9 bar), including 10-32 female gland ports with plastic barbs for 1/8" (.3175 cm) I.D. tubing.
PUMP LIMITATIONS: Within our specified temperature limit 350ºF (180ºC) all normal pump ratings
apply. Fitting type should be considered for example "POLYPROPYLENE" fittings are rated at 200º F
(93ºC) and "TEFLON" tubing at 700º F (371ºC).
CSC-WT - 316 SS and ceramic wetted surfaces for temperature controlled applications - Pump Head
Modules have 1/8" NPT female gland ports and 1/4" NPT female main flow ports. Pump heads also
come drilled for standard 1/4" x 1" to 1 1/2" cartridge heaters of 30 to 300 watts and thermocouples of
ANSI type K or J depending on Temperature Controller used.
MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE: 350ºF (180ºC). A 1/8" (.3175 cm) diameter hole 1" (2.54 cm) deep is
available for the attachment of a temperature probe for the Controller.
NOTE: USE EXTREME CAUTION
A TEMPERATURE CONTROLER IS REQUIRED WHEN USING HEATER. NOTE (2) 80
WATT HEATERS WILL RAISE THE IDEAL PUMP TEMPERATURE TO 200ºF (93ºC) FROM
70ºF (21º) AMBIENT IN APPROXIMATELY 3 ½ MINUTE.
HEATER INFORMATION: Required heaters are cartridge types, 1/4" (.635 cm) diameter by 1 1/2" (3.81
cm) maximum length. Heaters are available in this size from 30 to 300 watts. Extreme caution should be
exercised in any high temperature application; a Temperature Controller and Thermocouple must both be
used when installing heaters. High temperature type "RTV" adhesive is recommended for the attachment
of the heaters. Always follow the recommendations of the Heater manufacturer for the best performance
of the Heaters. Fluid Metering does not supply Heaters and it is the customers' responsibility to insure
the Heaters are used in a safe and non-hazardous manner. Extreme Heat can cause serious injury and
fire.
NOTE: EXTREME TEMPERATURE
EXTREME CAUTION SHOULD BE USED TO AVOID BURNS, OTHER INJURIES, OR FIRE.
