QED AutoPump Operating instructions

  • Hello! I have reviewed the AutoPump Test Stand Instructions and I'm ready to assist you with any questions you may have about the device and its operation. The document describes the detailed preparation, testing, and cleaning procedures of the test stand, and it emphasizes safety guidelines.
  • What is the recommended pressure for testing?
    What should be checked during testing?
    What is acceptable during the water leak test?
    What should I do after the pump has completely discharged?

PREPARATION:
1- Pump must be cleaned before is placed in the test stand.
2- Genuine QED parts and subassemblies are used when reassembling the pump.
3- The ball in the discharge check valve is 7/8” diameter.
4- Add water to tank while the rell valve is half opened, when the clear tube well is lled
half way stop the water.
5- The bottom inlet screen is removed.
6- The isolation valve lter/regulator is closed before is connected to an air supply line.
CAUTION:
Magnets are preset from factory, DO NOT ADJUST

TESTING: It is recommended the following procedures are tested at both 40 psi and 80 psi. The test stand has a
clear tube well, so check for air leaks while running the following procedures.
SLOW DISCHARGE:
Throttle the back pressure valve assembly so that it takes about 10 seconds for the pump to discharge
on each cycle.
SLOW FILL:
Throttle the rell rate valve assembly so it takes about to ll and discharge.
WATER LEAK TEST:
While cycling the pump, close the backpressure valve assembly when the pump begin discharging.
Lift the pump out of the tube and check for signicant water leaks on the bottom of the casing, a
few drops are acceptable.
After ensuring that there are no signicant water leaks, open the backpressure valve assembly so the
pump can discharge in the tank.
PUMP REMOVAL:
After the pump has completely discharge, close the isolation valve on the lter/regulator until the
gauge reads “0”.
Disconnect the air and exhaust hoses.
Disconnect the water hose and place it back in the tube.
CLEANING THE TEST STAND:
The test stand has cam type tting on the uid sections to allow the draining of water.
Use a water hose to spray any dirt or particles in the holding tank and in the test tube.
