5.6 Cleaning and Replacing Pump Check Valves
A dirty check valve causes erratic flow rates and pressures. In addition, it may
cause the pump to lose prime and/or be difficult to reprime. If possible, replace
dirty check valves. If new check valves are not available, follow the instructions
for cleaning.
To replace the check valves:
1. Turn off the ICS-900 power switch and disconnect the power cord.
2. To prevent contamination of pump parts, put on a pair of powder-free gloves
before disassembling the pump head.
3. Disconnect the tube fittings from the inlet and outlet check valve assemblies
on the primary pump head (see Figure 5-7
).
4. Use a 1/2-inch wrench to loosen both check valve assemblies. Remove the
check valve assemblies from the pump head.
