Proper injection pump maintenance is critical to maintain system performance and extend the lifetime of the
injection pump. Perform these maintenance procedures periodically over a season and be sure to store the
pump properly when not being used.
Maintenance and Cleaning
WARNING
Always use caution when performing
maintenance or servicing an injection pump or
system which has been previously pressurized.
Wear appropriate protective equipment to
prevent contact with hazardous chemicals and
rinse the chemical system as instructed by the
chemical manufacturer prior to performing
maintenance.
WARNING
Hazardous chemicals may be under pressure
even if the pump has not been in service
recently. Before replacing any components on
the injection pump, thoroughly rinse the
injection pump with clean water to remove
excess chemical residue.
Depending upon the type of chemicals used with the Raven injection system, periodic maintenance may be
required to ensure proper operation of the injection pump.
Note: Some chemicals may require daily maintenance of the injection pump. Review best practices with
a chemical supplier to ensure the proper frequency of pump maintenance.
