Make sure to follow all applicable electrical codes. PUMP PRIMING INSTRUCTIONS OPERATION 1. Refer to section II-g to ensure all electrical connections are complete. 2. Connect supply water with a 1 (AX and BX Models) or 1-1/2 (TX Model) Inlet Line and open feed line (Minimum 2 psi required) 3. Pull each pump discharge quick-connect until a steady stream of is flowing, and then reconnect. 4. Start the pumps one at a time using the motor starter. Ensure that pump rotation is correct as indicated on pump and that 200 psi can be reached. 5. TX Model: Slowly open the priming ball valve located off the end of the distribution block and allow water to flow until steady, then close the valve (a hose could be connected to the valve to the drain to avoid excessive water on the floor) 6. AX and BX Models: With the pump off disconnect the high pressure line to the AquaLab at the quick disconnect and point in a safe direction, while holding the line to control it start the pump and allow water to flow until steady. 7. Close the ball valve (TX Model) or reconnect the high pressure line at the quick disconnect (AX and BX Models) 8. Confirm that the pumps can obtain 200 psi and that the pump housing is cool to the touch after a minute in operation. 9. If pump does not prime, repeat steps 3-6!!Pay close attention to the temperature of the pump housing, if it starts getting hotter than the supply water then it is likely that the pump did not prime correctly!! *WARNING* If the pumps do not prime correctly they will heat up and it will cause damage to the pumps. WATER FLOW RATE AND CHEMICAL DILUTION SET UP For each of the chemicals that the Aqua-Lab is delivering to the car wash bay follow the steps outlined below to set the overall flow rate and chemical dilution. NOTE: you will need to know the target flow rate and chemical dilution (concentration) prior to setting up each chemical. Hydra-Flex, Inc Page 6

9 1. Using the Nozzle Size chart in the Appendix of this manual, follow the Feed Pressure column down to 200 (the operating pressure of the Aqua-Lab System). 2. Find the flow rate to the right of 200 that is closest to the desired target flow rate; from there follow that column back to the top of the chart to find the appropriate Nozzle size. 3. Using the Chemical Metering Rate chart in the Appendix of this manual, find the flow rate along the top that is closest to the flow rate you just determined in step 2 above. 4. Follow that column down until you find the dilution ratio (concentration) that is closest to the target value, then look to the Left of the chart to see which metering tip it corresponds to. NOTE: It may be necessary to change to a different injector s size based on the spray pattern and delivery of chemical to the vehicle. In that situation use the Nozzle size chart to determine the new flow rate at 200 psi and repeat steps 3 and 4 above to set the chemical usage. NOTE: The dilution ratios (concentrations) given in the Chemical Metering Rate Chart are based on drawing water through the tips. Some adjustments to a tip larger or smaller may be required due to the different of viscosities of the chemicals and water. POST INSTALLATION VACUUM & BACK PRESSURE CHECK If the spray nozzles on the arch are too small for the injector chosen, the back pressure put on the injector may cause the vacuum to not function and chemical will not be pulled The checks below are intended to help identify any potential issues that would cause the injector not to function correctly CHEM-FLEX INJECTOR VACUUM CHECK 1. At the Chem-Flex Injector, remove the chemical feed line from the injector hose barb. 2. Attached the tubing of the vacuum gauge to the Chem-Flex hose barb. 3. With the pump(s) on, manually activate the chemical that is to be tested at the main car wash control cabinet. An injector that is working properly will have a reading greater than or equal to ( ) 18 in Hg 4. Repeat steps 2-4 for each chemical lane that a vacuum reading is needed for. 5. Once testing is complete, turn off the Aqua-Lab pump from the main car wash control cabinet. CHEM-FLEX INJECTOR VACUUM CHECK Back Pressure is defined as the pressure that is created between the injector and the arch nozzles. It is caused by the chemical solution from the injector trying to push its way through the nozzle, the smaller the nozzles the harder it is to push through and consequently higher back pressure 1. Disconnect the outlet hose from the Chem-Flex injector that a back pressure reading will be taken for. 2. Connect the back pressure gauge assembly to the outlet of the Chem-Flex injector. 3. Connect the hose to the arch to the other end of the back pressure gauge assembly. **Make sure all hose barb fittings are secured with hose clamps. 4. Turn on the Aqua-Lab pump and the solenoid valve for the Chem-Flex being tested from the main car wash control cabinet The back pressure should not exceed 33% of the feed pressure (for the Aqua-Lab with the feed pressure set to 200 psi the back pressure should not exceed 66 psi). 5. Turn off the Aqua-Lab pump and solenoid valve at the main car wash control cabinet. 6. Remove the back pressure gauge assembly from the injector and reconnect the hose to the arch. **Make sure all hose barb fittings are secured with hose clamps. 7. Repeat steps 1-5 for each injector that a back pressure reading is needed for. Hydra-Flex, Inc Page 7

10 INDIVIDUAL INJECTOR FLOW RATE MEASUREMENT 1. Attach a short section of tubing (3-5 ft) to the outlet of the injector that you want to measure the flow rate of. 2. Turn on the Aqua-Lab pump and the solenoid valve for the Injector being tested. If possible have someone assist by turning them on while you keep the water from the short section of hose pointed in a safe direction. 3. Using a 2 liter graduated cylinder (or other large graduated cylinder) and a stop watch (watch or cell phone with a stop watch) Make sure the graduated cylinder is empty and that the stop watch is cleared. Direct the flow of water from the tube into the graduated cylinder and start the stop watch the instant you start adding water to the cylinder. Stop the timer when the cylinder is at least half full, preferably at a whole number level (ie. 1 liter, 2 liters) Divide the number of liters by the time in seconds then multiply by this will result in how many Gallons per minute (GPM) TROUBLESHOOTING The AQUA-LAB is supplied with the following tools to assist in set up and troubleshooting: Vacuum gauge for checking the vacuum at the chemical injector hose barb, Back Pressure Gauge for measuring back pressure downstream of the injector. PROBLEM POTENTIAL CAUSED SOLUTIONS Pump Operates, but delivers little or no water Pump won t start or run at full speed Excessive Noise from Pump Pump Leaks Injector is not drawing chemical - Passes Vacuum Pressure check test Inlet Restriction Low line voltage Inadequate water supply Undersized piping Leak on the Inlet side Worn or defective pump parts Pump not primed Incorrect Motor rotation Blown fuse or circuit breaker Defective Motor Starter contactor Incorrect Motor Voltage Defective motor Pump components damaged Pump not secured firmly Restricted Inlet Cavitation (Sounds like marbles in pump) Worn mechanical seal Worn o-ring seals Clogged chemical feed Check all in-line filters and inlet plumbing for restrictions Check pressure on inlet side of pump to be sure positive pressure is maintained Replace with larger piping Make sure connections are tight Replace worn parts or entire pump, Clean parts if required See priming instructions Reverse motor rotation by interchanging any two leads Replaced fuses or close circuit breaker Replaced motor starter contactor Voltage must be within 10% of motor rated voltage Replace motor Replace worn part or entire pump Secure properly Clean or correct restriction Increase inlet size Replace shaft seal Replace Check chemical hose, foot valve, metering tip and hose barb for debris or clogs Hydra-Flex, Inc Page 8

11 PROBLEM POTENTIAL CAUSED SOLUTIONS Injector is not drawing chemical - Fails Vacuum Pressure check test System won t regulate up to 200 psi Flow at arch is too low No flow from injector Valve stuck open Staying open when signal is off Too much back pressure on injector Clogged injector check valve Clogged injector nozzle Defective Injector Debris in regulator Opening to many valves at once Pump not primed Defective Check Valve Defective Regulator Defective Pump Incorrect Injector Flow Rate Selection System pressure too low Downstream pluming restrictive Solenoid valve malfunction Clogged Injector No water supply Debris in valve seat Perform back pressure check test outlined in Section IV if this manual. If the result is higher than 66 psi then Increase arch nozzle size or quantity, use larger tubing, or use a smaller flow injector Blow compressed air through the chemical hose barb on the injector to remove debris Remove injector and blow out any debris with compressed air If Vacuum check fails but Back Pressure is less than 66 psi, replace the injector Remove regulator and clean out debris System is limited to opening up to 8 valves at once or pressure will be greatly affected by so much demand Follow priming instructions Replace check valve if broken Replace Regulator Replace Pump Replace with desired injector size Ensure system pressure is set at 200 psi Perform Back pressure test outlined in Section IV of this manual, if over 66 psi, increase tube size and reduce elbows, turns or other restrictive plumbing Ensure valve is receiving the correct electrical signal and voltage Disassemble valve and clean out debris (See valve replacement instructions) Remove injector and blow out debris with compressed air Check that the system has a supply of water Remove and clean valve (See valve replacement instructions) VALVE REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS Remove malfunctioning valves from the manifold making sure to unscrew it from the larger steel hex closest to the plastic body. On a clean work surface disassemble the valve assembly. Be cautious with the small components and noting how it is assembled. Inspect for debris that could interfere with the valves operation, paying particular attention to anything blocking the two small holes through the valve piston (2nd part from the left in the image below). For and correct assembly reference the image below. Hydra-Flex, Inc Page 9

12 APPENDIX: CHEM-FLEX INJECTORS - CHEMICAL DILUTION RATIOS NOTE: Dilution ratios given are based on drawing water through the metering tips and are meant as a starting point for system configuration. Results are expected to vary when drawing chemicals due to differences in viscosity and temperature. There may be slight variations of performance in injectors and metering tips that are unavoidable due to manufacture tolerances. Using the same tip color from site to site is a good starting point. However, with the potential for variation from part, to part it is reasonable to still need to do some adjustments from there.

13 Figure 1 TERMINAL BOX WIRING INSTRUCTIONS (OPTIONAL) The terminal box offers a simple way to locate the solenoid signal wires. Typically used when an existing system is removed, their signals can be brought to this box and terminated with the Aqua-Lab. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Figure 2 1. Determine location and hang terminal box. Note that the side of the box with three holes is for the Aqua-Lab control cables (yellow cables), and the side of the box with 5 holes is for the incoming activation signals from the wash controller. Orientate box accordingly and within reach of Aqua-Lab yellow cables 2. Remove Cover and notice the labeling of the terminals (Figure 2). Each chemical bank of the Aqua-Lab is labeled as 1, 2, & 3. For TX model this corresponds to top (1), middle (2), and bottom (3). For AX model this corresponds to left (1) and right (2) Figure 3 3. Bring the yellow cable from the corresponding chemical bank to the box and insert through cable gland as shown. (Figure 3) Figure 4 4. Using a small screwdriver, press into the spring terminal and pull away from the wire terminal to open the spring clamps. Insert the wire that corresponds to the labeled color then release the spring by removing the screw driver (Figure 4) 5. Repeat for all colors labeled. (brown and red are not used) 6. Blue and Green/Yellow are to be wired to the common and ground terminals which are segmented as shown (Figure 5) Figure 5 7. Repeat for all yellow Aqua-Lab cables 8. Individually insert chemical activation signals through cable glands and wire to desired chemical position (see wiring chart in operations manual) (Figure 6). Figure 6 9. Repeat for all chemical signals, only one of the common (blue) and ground (Green/yellow) wires for the signals need to be wired to the corresponding segmented terminals since they should be previously connected at the wash controller. You can wire up to three of the commons and grounds to ensure a redundant connection. 10. Lightly tug on all wires to ensure a good connection.
