MSA 488543 Installation guide

The Kwik-Draw Pump is designed to measure
concentrations of gases and vapors when used with
AUER/MSA Detector Tubes.
Description
The Kwik-Draw Pump is a one-handed, manually-
operated bellows pump of 100 cc capacity.
Tube Holder
This rubber part permits mounting of detector tubes,
remote sampling lines or other detectors.
Filter Disc
This porous plastic disc mounted in the rubber Tube
Holder protects the Pump from dirt and dust particles
which may alter the flow or damage the pump.
Exhaust Valve
Located under the valve cover, this valve closes as
the bellows re-inflates, and readily opens on the
exhaust stroke so blow-back through the tube holder
is negligible.
Stroke Counter
For convenience, a stroke counter is incorporated into
the Pump handle.
End-of-stroke Indicator
As the bellows begins to re-inflate, and after the knob
is released, the indicator eyeball turns high-visibility
green. As the vacuum decreases, the eye begins to
roll back to black. The stroke is over when the eye is
all black.
NOTE: Kwik-Draw Pump (P/N 488543) does not have
an end-of-stroke indicator.
Operation
1. Using the breaker on the Pump, break off both
tips of the Detector Tube.
2. Using a twisting motion, insert the Tube into the
rubber tube holder. The arrow on the Tube
should point toward the Pump.
3. Re-zero stroke counter.
4. With all four fingers on the handle, depress the
knob with your palm.
NOTE: Watch the stroke counter; to ensure
proper sample volume, the counter
will only advance if a full pump stroke
is taken.
5. Release the knob.
6. As the Pump re-inflates, the end-of stroke
indicator turns to high-visibility green. The
stroke is over when the eye returns to the all
black state.
NOTE: If your Pump does not have the end-of-
stroke indicator, wait 30 seconds after full
bellows inflation to ensure that all 100 cc
of the sample is drawn through the tube.
The Detector Tube must be held in the
sampling area during this period.
7. To evaluate the stain, follow the instructions
provided with the Detector Tubes.
Remote Sampling
Remote sampling is accomplished by putting the
pump, connecting tube, remote sampling line and
Detector Tube together, in that order.
Maintenance
Under conditions of normal use, this Pump should
require little maintenance. Depending on the
frequency of use, periodic cleaning and checks for
correct performance are recommended.
Tube Holder
Replace the Tube Holder when it shows signs of wear
or loss of elasticity. If filter is not clogged or cracked,
save the Filter Disc for re-use in the new Tube Holder.
Filter Disc
Periodically remove the Filter Disc for cleaning or
replacement.
1. Remove the Filter Disc from the Tube Holder by
rolling the flange part of the Tube Holder down
and away from the Disc.
2. Gently tap or blow on the surface to remove any
foreign matter.
3. Replace Disc so previously exposed surface is
once again facing away from Pump.
Shaft
If the shaft is dirty or the bellows inflation is jerky,
remove the shaft by unscrewing; then, clean with
auto wax.

Valves
1. With the valve cover removed, check the valves
for dirt or debris.
2. Remove dirt with a gentle puff of air or by using
a soft brush.
3. Replace valve(s) if necessary.
NOTE: Apply a very thin film of lubricant to the
ball and sealing surface of the valve
before installing (see FIGURE).
Pump Performance Test
After extended idleness and periodically during use,
check the Pump for proper performance with the
following test:
Field Leakage Test
1. Plug the Pump inlet by inserting an unbroken
Detector Tube into the Tube Holder.
2. Deflate the Pump fully, release, and wait 10
minutes. The Pump is leak-free if the distance
from the bellows to the frame is 1/2-inch or
greater after 10 minutes. If the Pump leaks,
check the Tube Holder and, if necessary, the
valves (see "Maintenance"). After repair, re-test
for leakage
Use of a Pump that leaks may result in the
under- estimation of a hazard and could
result in property damage, injury or death.
If Pump performance is inadequate and cannot be
corrected by these measures, return the Pump to
MSA for repair. Call (1-800-MSA-2222) for the location
of your nearest service center.
