Under heavy loading (e.g. continuous operation, abrasive or
aggressive media): Shorter intervals. ProMinent generally recom‐
mends using a diaphragm rupture indicator.
** Check the metering diaphragm more frequently with feed chemi‐
cals that put particular pressure on the diaphragm, e.g. those con‐
taining abrasive additives.
