Precise Metering, Robust And Reliable

Years of Continued Service

The Encore® 700 diaphragm metering pump combines the robustness of hydraulic
diaphragm pumps with the unparalleled economy, simplicity, and serviceability of a
mechanical pump.

The Encore® 700 pump is engineered to handle industrial and municipal metering
applications in water and wastewater treatment, swimming pools, food processing,
chemical processing, brewing and distillation, and agriculture.

at varying discharge pressures
Operational Performance & Configurations

The Encore 700 Non-Loss-Motion Pumps

Unlike Solenoid pumps which are the most simple and economical type of pump
that provide a pulsed flow with huge pressure spikes, create considerable noise
and wear, or the Loss of Motion pumps which are motor-driven with a higher
capacity than Solenoid pumps. The Encore 700 Diaphragm Metering pump is
driven by a rotating crankshaft. This is where the eccentricity can be smoothly
adjusted during operation, there are no return springs and the diaphragm moves
with simple harmonic motion. The fluid velocity profile is sinusoidal at all stroke
lengths; adjusting stroke length simply alters the amplitude of the sine wave. This
design provides reliability and longevity and pump valves operate with far greater
efficiency and minimal system vibration.

Simplex Pump
Offers single head design on single gear box with
stroke control.

Double Simplex Pump

Offers two heads with two gear boxes each
with independent stroke length control, and a
common motor.

Duplex Pump
Offers two identical sized heads on single gear box
with common stroke length control, and a direct
drive arrangement

Operation

Controls
The Encore®700 diaphragm metering pump can be controlled by varying the stroke
length or stroke frequency. The following control schemes are available:

Manual or Automatic Control

Start-Stop Control where the motor is wired into the
circuit of a transfer pump, switch, timer, or controller
Flow Proportional Control from a single process variable
Residual, Compound Loop, or Set point Control
using one or two process variables.

Manual Stroke Length Control

A 10-turn micrometer gives continuous feed rate adjustment over a 10:1 range.
A percent scale and vernier indicate stroke length setting to 1 part in 400. Each
revolution of the knob changes feed rate by 10%. Stroke length is infinitely
adjustable from 0 to 100%. The stroke control mechanism provides positive
positioning and locking of the stroke mechanism, eliminating the need for external
manual locks.

Automatic Stroke Length Control

For automatic capacity control via stroke length our NEMA 4X / IP66 actuator is
used in conjunction with either process variable controllers or direct mA input. The
compact field retrofittable actuator easily installs on the pump and features local
manual override and a window for clear indication of stroke length.

Temperature Limits
With PVC liquid end: ambient temperatures from 2-52°C (35-125°F), process fluid
temperatures up to 52°C (125°F). With Kynar® and Stainless Steel liquid end: process

standard metering pump control panels that are pre-tested and fully integrated
with the liquid feed system. They are pre-piped and include many installation
accessories, such as back pressure and relief valves, pulsation dampeners, and
calibration chambers. Multiple sizes provide a unit tailored to meet a wide range of
flows and pressures.

* Reflects simplex capacities, double-simplex arrangements must be configured with the same stroke frequency on both
liquid ends.

** For pulley drive arrangements capacities listed are for pulley step 1. Capacities for steps 2, 3 and 4 are 75%, 50% and
25% respectively.

Note: Minimum motor horsepower for 6-1/2” head is 1/2 Induction (1 variable speed)
Pulley Drive Arrangement:
Stroke length is adjustable over a 10:1 range; stroke frequency is adjustable over an
80:1 range (using an optional variable speed drive), and 40:1 range (using an optional
variable frequency drive). Total combined maximum operating turndown can be as
high as 800:1. Above 100:1 continuous turndown, total available operating range
should be evaluated against specific chemicals being metered.

Speed of Response
Automatic stroke length control response time is 100 seconds from 0 to 100%.
Variable speed control response time is under three seconds from 0 to 100%.

Suction Lift
The pump will self-prime with a 3m (10ft) of water suction lift (wetted valves, zero
back pressure, full stroke and speed, water-like solutions). Once primed, the pump
will operate with a 3m (10ft) suction lift. Flooded suction is recommended.

Accessories

Custom Packaged Skid Builds.

We can utilise the Encore 700 pumps in many different
configurations to suit your application needs. These
configurations can incorporate all the accessories
usually applied in one convenient package ready to
be used. These systems will come pre-tested and
built to a high standard. In general they can provide
duty/standby pumps with pressure relief valves, back
pressure valves, pulsation dampeners and calibration
columns to suit your individual application needs.

Auto Degas Valve

An optional auto degas valve is available for metering
liquids, for capacities up to 91 l/h (24 GPH US), such as
sodium hypochlorite, that tend to gas off especially at
low chemical feed rates and/or start-stop operation.
With the auto degas valve installed, the pump can be
restarted under high back pressure conditions without
the need for manually priming the liquid end. This can be
a major advantage especially for unmanned stations. The
valve has a PVDF housing, Viton® and EPDM O-rings,
a PTFE diaphragm, and a Hastelloy® C spring. Retrofit
kits are available for existing installations. For more
information see publication CF.470.250.000.PS

Diaphragm Leak Detector

An optional diaphragm leak detector system is available.
It senses the early stages of diaphragm failure. The
system contains an ectro-optic sensor mounted to
the liquid end and a NEMA® 4X (IP66) control box. It
can monitor two liquid ends and it includes a relay for
remote indication of diaphragm failure.

Optional Installation Accessories

Available accessories include back pressure valves, pressure relief valves, anti
syphon suction demand valves, main connections, suction line strainers, pulsation
dampeners, calibration columns, solution tanks, mixers, and level switches.
