Features of IX-B series
High Turn down Ratio
Discharge capacity range 0.0075 – 45 L/H covers wide flow range.
Precise Chemical Dosing Operation
The valve design maintains precise dosing at any flow rate whilst the motor regulates discharge and suction speeds to achieve high accuracy (+/-1%) all with a cost-effective design from a mechanically driven diaphragm pump.
• Some low flow rate areas are excluded.
Efficient Pump Head Design Is Incorporated With High Compression
Fast priming without air locks is achieved with a high compression ratio due to a fixed (maximum) stroke length.
Viscous Liquid Transfer
Standard IX series is capable of pumping liquid viscosities of up to 1000mPa·s.
• Contact us for higher viscosity applications. When transferring viscous liquid, the discharge rate may decrease. Custom orders are also available for viscosities of 1000mPa·s and above. Please contact us for details.
IP65
Drive and control units are sealed separately to an IP65 enclosure.
Compliant to World Standards
One of the IX features is multi-voltage operation (100 – 240VAC) compatible worldwide. Compliant to UL, CE standards.
Constant Injection With Low Impact
Flow control via discharge speed adjustment (with a fixed suction speed) assures constant injection at any flow rate. This system also reduces impact (inertia force) and load to the discharge line.
Cavitation Prevention
When pumping viscous liquids, suction stroke speed can be varied to avoid developing cavitation. (Programmable suction speed: 75%, 50% or 25% of the normal speed)
Degassing
Keypad operation or the contact signal (AUX) runs the pump at maximum spm in any mode for degassing.
Calibration
The pump is calibrated prior to shipment, however we recommend recalibration when installed in your system due to pipe layout and liquid properties.
Operation History
Controller memory logs the total power connection time, operating time, number of strokes and number of power-up events.
Automatic Control
The IX can run in analogue, pulse, batch or interval batch modes.
Analogue Operation
The pump operates in response to an input, (4 – 20 mA) from a controller.
Pulse Operation
When combined with a flow meter or contact head water meter, the IX pump gives a paced dose rate in proportion to the main flow rate.
Interval Batch Operation
Timed operation is possible with simple pump programming via the keypad and is initiated with a pulse signal.
Safety Design
Standard to all models is a diaphragm rupture detector, protecting users and the environment. Also, a detector for abnormal operation protects the pipework in case of an accidental high discharge pressure caused by clogging or improper operation. A drain hole also ensures safe operation even when the diaphragm is damaged.
• In some cases it may not be able to detect sudden rises in pressure occurring in shutoff operation. If the piping or machinery in use has low pressure resistance, install a separate safety valve.
Excellent Utility
Excellent Corrosion Resistance
PVDF with excellent corrosion resistance is used as standard for the wet end materials. The 100% fluororesin diaphragm also supports liquid transfer, which is easily permeable to gas.
LED Status Bar
A large LED status bar provides simple visual indication of operating conditions at a glance. It is easily visible to see the pump status at a distance or in dark locations.
Flexible Connections
Tubing, Threaded, Flanged or Union (Made by George Fisher) connections are available as standard options providing easy installation for any application.
Flexible Installation
(Patented country: Japan, USA, Germany, France, Denmark, China)
The IX-B Pumps have been designed to be installed into various locations. The control unit can easily be repositioned by customers on-site. The pump can also be relocated from base mounted to wall mounted without any extra parts required.
• IX-B-S6 cannot be wall-mounted.
Upward 4 directions (every 90 degrees)
Two steps on both sides (every 35 degrees)
