ProMinent ProMix ‘S & C’ Polymer Feeder
ProMix Series S&C User Manual
i. Overview:
The ProMix S & C “TA Series” Polymer Feeder is a skid system designed to control feed water and polymer and
combine them to produce a high quality solution. The system is designed to receive liquid neat polymer while
mixing it with feed water to produce and discharge a quality solution from the system.
Research in the science of polymer activation indicates that the activation energy must decrease as the
polymeric chain is uncoiled to prevent rupture and hence decrease the performance of the product.
The mixing by the Polymer Feeder is accomplished
mechanically with three distinct mixing zones separated
by baffles. The first zone consists of a fast mixing blade
that delivers high shear at the precise point of polymer
injection, creating an immediate dispersion before
agglomeration takes place. The second mixing zone
induces a vortex and draws solution down through the
center of the chamber from zone one and forces the
solution outward to the sides and then down into the third
zone. Finally, the third zone mixing blade gently
agitates/blends the active polymer solution before it exits
the chamber via the discharge tube.
The ProMix S & C Polymer Feeder controller offers several operating options. These options are selected using
various combinations of the controller door switch positions and polymer type selections via the controller menu.
The controller allows the polymer pump speed to be controlled either locally via the keypad or remotely via a
customer supplied 4-20 mA signal over a 0 to 100% speed range. The polymer dosage rate must be calculated
and the pump adjusted for the desired ratio concentration of polymer to dilution water leaving the feeder by
volume. Different maximum concentrations are possible based upon the type of polymer. Emulsion polymers
should be limited to a maximum of 1% concentration in the mixing chamber and Mannich polymers should not
exceed 10% in the mixing chamber. The polymer type to be used is selectable from the keypad menu.
The System Start switch on the controller door has three positions, ON, OFF and REMOTE. ON enables the
controller locally and REMOTE allows the controller to be enable via a customer supplied dry contact. The
Polymer Pump switch has two positions, LOCAL and REMOTE. Placing the System Start switch in the OFF
position after having first been in either of the other two positions will initiate a flush cycle for the system before
shutting down.
The Polymer Pump switch on the controller front door has two positions to choose the source of the pump
control signal. In the LOCAL position the controller uses the keypad entry for polymer pump speed. In the
REMOTE position a user supplied 4-20 mA signal representing 0 –100% pump speed controls the pump. The
user must manually adjust the primary and post dilution valves for the desired dilution water flow rate and must
calculate the required pump speed to attain the desired concentration. Rotameters are provided to monitor the
dilution water flow rates.
The ProMix Polymer Feeder is equipped with all the necessary components for easy installation, reliable
performance and safe operation. The design incorporates an electric solenoid valve (water inlet), flow
meter/switch, manually adjustable rotameters for primary and secondary dilution flow, either a peristaltic or
diaphragm type neat polymer pump (depending on model), microprocessor based controller, manual ball valves,
pump calibration column, PVC piping and components, and polymer mixing chamber mounted on a skid to
facilitate proper mixing and delivery.

•Neat Polymer Suction: Flooded or Lift
•Type of Application / Dewatering Device
•Type of Polymer: Emulsion, Dispersion, Solution

ProMinent ProMix ‘S & C’ Polymer Feeder
ProMix Series S&C User Manual
1.4 Installation:
1. Unpack and position equipment on sturdy level surface. Fasten to prevent movement.
2. Do not install equipment in areas of extreme heat, cold, dust or humidity. Avoid areas where
objects or fluids can drop from overhead.
3. Units are to be installed as close to the point of application as possible.
4. Inlet pressure is not to exceed 100 psig working pressure.
5. System pressure at the discharge is not to exceed 80% of inlet pressure.
6. Piping Internal to the System:
a. Inspect the piping for breakage. The system may have been jarred during shipping.
b. Check the tightness on all unions. Hand tighten only –no tools. Unions incorporate an
o- ring seal. Ensure that the o-ring is seated properly prior to tightening.
7. Piping External to the System (Reference Appendix A for connection location):
a. Install piping so that connections properly meet system termination points. Do not “stretch”
field installed piping to meet system termination points. Stressed piping will fail!
b. Piping should be at a minimum ¾” to and from the piping on the system.
c. Avoid gettingdirt and debris inside the piping during installation. Plug endsof piping with
rags if constructionactivitiesare underway. All debris must be flushed from pipingbefore
system start-up.
d. Connect to outlet piping ¾” FNPT from static mixer to associated customerapplication
point.
e. Connect to make-up water inlet piping ¾” FNPT (5 GPM maximum at 100 psig maximum).
f. Connect to Neat Polymer pump inlet piping ½” FNPT.
g. Install ¾” pressure regulator and ¾” y-strainer / basket strainer on the clean make-up
water line if equipment is currently not installed. (Recommended)
h. Allow provisions for draining the system piping. Skid components will require maintenance.
Ensure that chemicals can be evacuated from the skid piping and components for servicing.
8. Electrical Supply Needed for the System:
a. Note: Review local Electrical Code and follow accordingly.
b. Connect incoming power to skid mounted control panel (120VAC, Single Phase, 15 Amp,
60 Hz). Ensure panel is properly grounded.
c. Check electrical connections to be sure proper voltage is supplied to the system.
d. Power the unit using a dedicated, separate breaker in the local lighting distribution panel.
e. Do not route the AC power in common conduit with variable frequency pump drives.
f. Do not put conduitentries in the top of the control panel. Resulting conduit condensation
and failure to seal may damage controller circuit boards.
9. The Overload relay should be set to the Motor Nameplate Full Load Amps. Setting this to a
higher value will result in possible damage to the motor and associated wiring. Overload
conditions should be investigated and possible process changes may need to be made to
prevent overload conditions.
10. Connect Digital Remote Start Functions (note wiring termination points in Appendix B) for
polymer tank level and remote start permissive. Default jumpers should remain in place for any
input not available.
11. Refer to the Blue White A-100NV Installation & Maintenance Manual regarding pump information.

ProMinent ProMix ‘S & C’ Polymer Feeder
ProMix Series S&C User Manual
1.5 Quick Start Guide:
1. After the installation guidelines (Section 1.4) of the manual.
2. Open ball valve on the suction of the pump to allow chemical to flow into the system by gravity.
If the application is suction lift then ensure liquid is present in pump suction.
3. Start up pumps at 100% stroke length and frequency to purge all air and prime the system.
To prime the pump press and hold the PRIME button on the keypad until chemical is visible
in the suction line.
4. Verify motor rotation on Mixing Chamber motor. Normal rotation is CCW.
5. Do not run the mixing chamber motor dry. Damage to the mechanical seal could occur.
6. Close the Post Dilution flow control valve and adjust the Primary Dilution flow control valve
to obtain the flow range required. If additional dilution water is needed adjust the secondary
accordingly.
7. Verify that the maximum polymer injection pump pressure is higher than the system pressure.
8. Perform pump calibration using drawdown calibration cylinder.
9. Check flow calibration and be sure pump meets or exceeds the rated flow capacity.
10. Check flows at 100% capacity.
11. In System Start ON and Polymer Pump LOCAL switch positions the neat polymer pump speed is
adjusted manually using the controller keypad to change the pump rate from 0 to 100% of the
pump rated output.
12. In System Start ON and Polymer Pump REMOTE switch positions the controller receives a
remote customer supplied analog 4-20 mA signal to adjust the desired pump speed from 0 to
100% of the pump rated output. This remote 4-20 mA signal can be scaled at the controller to
enhance the resolution of the pump output control and bias the pump response to the remote
signal. A remote start permissive is optional –if used then System Start switch should be in the
REMOTE position.
13. Confirm proper operation of all instrumentation. For example: Gauge, Rotometer switch, etc.
14. Input functions checked and simulated (remote start/stop, 4-20mA, etc.).
15. Output functions checked.
16. Test the operation of all remaining circuits.
17. Observe system to assure that nothing looks or sounds abnormal.
