8 Good pump installation practice
8.1 General recommendations
Always consult an expert before installing a metering pump in a
specialised system. Metering pumps should be maintained by
qualified persons.
The pump must be bolted to a flat, horizontal, rigid surface, free from excessive
vibration, to ensure correct lubrication of the gearbox and correct pumphead
operation. Allow a free flow of air around the pump to ensure that heat can be
dissipated. Ensure that the ambient temperature around the pump does not exceed
45°C (113°F).
The STOP key on pumps supplied with a keypad will always stop the pump. However,
it is recommended that a suitable local emergency stop device is fitted into the mains
supply to the pump.
Do not stack pumps.
This pump is self-priming and self-sealing against backflow. No valves are required in
inlet or discharge lines, except as described below. Valves in the process flow must be
opened before the pump operates.
Users must fit a non-return valve between the pump and the
discharge pipework to avoid the sudden release of pressurised
fluid in the event of a pumphead failure. This shall be fitted
immediately after the discharge of the pump.
qdos30 is a positive displacement pump; therefore, it is
recommended best practice that customers incorporate
discharge pressure relief in their piping system. Failure to fit a
pressure release valve in the discharge pipework will result in
excessive build up of pressure should the discharge become
blocked. This may present a safety risk, may cause damage to
the system pipework or lead to premature failure of the
pumphead. The pressure relief valve shall be rated at no more
than 10 bar. It shall always be rated at below the users system
maximum operating pressure. It shall be installed so as to
provide easy access for maintenance, inspection and repair. It
shall not be capable of being adjusted without the use of a tool.
The discharge opening must be located and directed so that the
release material is not directed towards any person and will not
deposit on parts that could cause a hazard. There must not be a
shut-off valve between the overpressure safety device and the
pump.
Do not block the drain port of the ReNu pumphead.
Ensure the chemicals to be pumped are compatible with the
pumphead and the pipework and fittings to be used with the
pump. Please refer to the chemical compatibility guide which
can be found at: www.wmftg.com/chemical. If you need to use
the pump with any other chemical please contact Watson-
Marlow to confirm compatibility.
m-qdos30-manual-11 16

8.2 Do's and do not's
Do not build a pump into a tight location without adequate airflow around the
pump.
Do keep delivery and suction tubes as short and direct as possible - though ideally
not shorter than one metre - and follow the straightest route. Use bends of large
radius: at least four times the tubing diameter. Ensure that connecting pipework
and fittings are suitably rated to handle the predicted pipeline pressure. Avoid pipe
reducers and lengths of smaller bore tubing than the pumphead section, particularly
in pipelines on the suction side. Any valves in the pipeline must not restrict the flow.
Any valves in the flow line must be open when the pump is running.
Do use suction and delivery pipes equal to or larger than 6.4mm diameter bore.
When pumping viscous fluids use pipe runs with a bore several times larger than the
pump tube.
Do site the pump at or just below the level of the fluid to be pumped if possible. This
will ensure flooded suction and maximum pumping efficiency.
Do run at slow speed when pumping viscous fluids. Flooded suction will enhance
pumping performance, particularly for materials of a viscous nature.
Do recalibrate after changing pumphead, fluid, or any connecting pipework. It is also
recommended that the pump is recalibrated periodically to maintain accuracy.
Do not pump any chemical not compatible with the pumphead.
Do not tilt the drive with a pumphead fitted, even if it is not running.
Pressure capability
qdos30 can be operated continuously at discharge pressures of up to 7 bar (100psi).
The pump can be operated at discharge pressures of up to 10 bar (145 psi), however
flowrate and pumphead life will be affected.
Dry running
qdos30 will continue to operate when there is gas present in the suction line and will
maintain prime in these conditions. The pump can be run dry, however flow rate and
pumphead life will be affected.
m-qdos30-manual-11 17

9 Connecting to a power supply
This pump is fitted with a switch mode power supply and will operate from any mains
voltage in the range ~100-240V AC, 50/60Hz supplies.
Make suitable connection to an earthed, single-phase mains electricity supply.
We recommend using commercially available supply voltage
surge suppression where there is excessive electrical noise.
Power cable: The pump is supplied fitted with a cable gland and approximately
1.8m (5.9ft) of power cable.
Each pump is supplied with a power cable. The connector at the pump end of the
cable is IP66 rated. The mains plug at the opposite end of the cable is NOT IP66
rated.
Ensure that all power supply cables are adequately rated for the
equipment.
The pump must be positioned so that the disconnection device
(the mains plug), is easily accessible when the equipment is in
use.
When PAT testing this unit ensure that the earth bond test
terminal is used. Do not use the motor shaft as this will result in
motor bearing damage.

10 Start-up check list
lFit the pumphead to the drive. Refer to: 20 Pumphead Replacement on page 52.
lEnsure the pumphead ports are securely fitted to the interface tubing.
lEnsure proper connection has been made to a suitable power supply.
lEnsure that the general recommendations are followed (see 8.1 General
recommendations on page 16).
