Description
Product Overview
The Generic Precision Controls PF20-P1-000 is a high‑performance diaphragm metering pump engineered for precise chemical dosing in demanding environments. Constructed with a robust PVC head and a precision‑machined ceramic weight, the pump offers exceptional resistance to corrosion and wear, making it ideal for handling aggressive agents such as chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, rust inhibitors, and biocides. With a maximum flow rate of 19 gallons per day (approximately 3 liters per hour) and a pressure rating of 220 psi, this pump delivers consistent, accurate dosing even under high‑pressure conditions. The unit operates on either 115 V or 230 V power sources, providing flexibility for a wide range of installations, from laboratory benches to industrial cooling towers. Its compact dimensions (8″ L × 5″ W × 8″ H) and a weight of 10 pounds allow for easy mounting and integration into existing systems. The pump includes essential components such as a suction valve, ceramic weight, suction and discharge tubing, and an injection/back‑check valve, ensuring a complete, ready‑to‑use solution out of the box. Designed for both manual and automated control, the PF20-P1-000 features adjustable stroke and rate settings, enabling users to fine‑tune flow rates to meet specific process requirements. This versatility, combined with its high‑pressure capability, makes the pump a reliable choice for applications ranging from water treatment and cooling tower maintenance to laboratory research and small‑scale production.
Usage
The PF20-P1-000 excels in environments where precise chemical dosing is critical. In laboratory settings, researchers rely on its accurate metering to prepare consistent solution concentrations for experiments involving chlorine, peroxide, or biocidal agents. The pump’s high‑pressure rating allows it to feed directly into pressurized systems, such as recirculating cooling towers, where maintaining proper chemical balance prevents scale formation and microbial growth. Facility managers in industrial plants use the pump to inject corrosion inhibitors into water loops, ensuring equipment longevity and reducing maintenance costs. Its dual‑voltage compatibility simplifies installation across regions with differing electrical standards, and the included suction and discharge tubing streamline integration with existing piping. The pump’s adjustable stroke mechanism provides the ability to calibrate flow on‑the‑fly, making it suitable for processes that require variable dosing rates throughout the day. Whether mounted on a wall‑mounted bracket in a utility room or placed on a bench in a research lab, the PF20-P1-000 delivers reliable performance with minimal supervision, allowing operators to focus on higher‑level process control.

FAQ
What types of chemicals can the PF20-P1-000 safely pump?
The pump is designed for chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, rust inhibitors, biocides, and similar water‑based chemicals. Its PVC construction and ceramic weight are resistant to corrosion, making it suitable for most standard dosing applications in water treatment and cooling systems.
How do I adjust the flow rate on the pump?
Flow adjustment is achieved by modifying the stroke length and pump rate using the built‑in adjustment knobs. Turning the stroke knob changes the volume displaced per cycle, while the rate knob controls the number of cycles per minute. Refer to the included user manual for step‑by‑step calibration instructions.
Can the pump be installed in a hard‑wired configuration?
Yes, the PF20-P1-000 includes a hard‑wired option for permanent installations. The unit comes with a 115 V plug that can be wired to a 230 V supply if required, allowing flexibility for both plug‑in and hard‑wired setups. Professional electricians should follow local electrical codes during installation.
What maintenance is required to keep the pump operating optimally?
Regular maintenance involves inspecting the suction valve for debris, checking tubing for wear or leaks, and verifying that the ceramic weight moves freely. Cleaning the PVC head with a mild detergent and ensuring all connections are tight will prolong the pump’s service life. A full inspection is recommended every six months or after any significant change in operating conditions.
Is there a warranty or service plan available?
All PF20-P1-000 units come with a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Extended service plans and replacement parts are available through our authorized distributors, providing peace of mind and quick resolution should any issues arise during the product’s lifecycle.
