Product Usage Instructions

Installation
Before installing the White Knight PSR050 pump, please carefully read and follow the installation requirements and setup instructions provided in the manual. Ensure that all necessary connections and fittings are properly installed and secure.

Precautions
Handling
Do NOT lift pump by shuttle valve assembly nor air tubing.

Installation Orientation
PSR050 pumps must be installed in an upright position. The check valves are actuated by gravity and/or flow, and they will not seat if the pump is not upright.

Timer Mode
PSR050 pumps require an end of stroke detection mechanism (pressure switch) to prevent over stroking in timer mode. Operating a PSR050 in timer mode without stroke detection will void the pump warranty.

Required Air Flow (Shuttle Valve)
PSR050 pumps require 1/4 in minimum orifice with unrestricted air flow.

Required Air Flow (Solenoid Valve)
PSR050 pumps require a 1.5 Cv solenoid. Using a reduced Cv will reduce flow rates. Using a valve with more than 20% greater Cv will change operating parameters, reduce pump life and void the warranty.

Under Supply of Air
PSR050 pumps operate erratically or stall when air supply is insufficient. Ensure use of air supply pressures higher than averaged air consumption lines in performance charts. Air supply lines and fittings must meet minimal inner diameter requirements shown in the installation instructions.

Air Supply Pressure
Operating PSR050 pumps ~35% below max air pressure may significantly extend pump life. PSR050 pumps require 20 psi minimum air pressure. Operation above 4 Bar (60 psi) may damage the pump and void the warranty.

Suction Lift
PSR050 pumps have an initial suction lift capacity of 3 ft. For best results minimize suction lift.

Liquid Inlet/Outlet Connections
PSR050 liquid ports are not NPT nor any other standard. Use of connectors other than those supplied by White Knight will damage the pump and void the warranty.

Liquid Line Restriction
PSR050 pumps may be controlled by closing liquid outlet lines. However, restricting liquid supply lines increases wear and should be avoided. Do NOT pump against a closed liquid inlet. It will damage the pump and void the warranty.

Running Dry
PSR050 pumps use the pumped liquid to lubricate their shafts. The pumps will cycle faster and wear more than normal when run dry, which may cause damage and loss of self-prime abilities. PSR050 pumps should not run dry after start- up and are not warrantied under dry run conditions.

Pulse Dampener with Shuttle Valve
Air supply pressure to PSR050 pumps should be at least ten psi higher than the liquid line pressure when using a pulsation dampener. Failure to do so may cause erratic operation.

Cross Contamination
PSR050 pumps use porous material that may retain chemicals. Take precautions to avoid cross contamination.

Warnings
Pressurized Material

  • Pumps in use contain pressurized materials. Eliminate liquid and air pressure via shut off valves before pump is serviced or removed from the system.

High Temperature

  • Heat may transfer to exterior surfaces when pumps operate with high temperature fluids. Avoid direct contact with the pump when high temperature fluids are present.

Hazardous Chemical

  • Use appropriate personal protective equipment when handling pump. Reference Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for information specific to your chemicals.

Loud Noise

  • Pump exhaust air contributes to work area noise levels. Only operate pumps with approved muffler media, and use ear protection in noisy conditions.

Advantages
Head Pressure / Dead-Head
PSR050 pumps can be controlled by adjusting their liquid outlet pressures and can be installed with head pressures up to dead-head (e.g. equal liquid and air pressures) with no damage to the pump.

Thermal Cycling
PSR050 pumps require no maintenance when operated within their performance range, even in thermal cycling applications.

Environment & System
Oversized Inlet Line
Pumps operate optimally with liquid inlet lines larger than the liquid outlet lines. This reduces strain on the bellows and may reduce pulsation in the pump outlet.

Clean Supply Air (CDA)
PSR050 pumps require use of Class 2 air for particles and moisture per ISO 8573-1. Use 10 micron filter; maintain -40°C dew point. A point-of-use filter is recommended during first six months of operation in new fabs/systems due to high risks of debris that can damage pumps and void warranty.

Flammable Solvents
PSR050 pumps are not constructed from conductive materials. System that pump flammable solvents should be properly grounded to avoid ignition by static charge. A River’s Edge test of isolative pumps with flammable liquids indicated that liquids must be grounded and other procedures should be followed. Copy of test available.

Pumping Liquids Near Boiling Point
Minimizing suction lift reduces pulsation and the potential for boiling or outgassing of liquid in the inlet of the pump. Although reciprocating pumps can pull suction lift, pump performance and life increase when suction lift is minimized or eliminated.

Abrasive Slurry
Pumping abrasive slurry may accelerate wear of components. PSR050 pumps are warrantied when used with slurry. However, normal wear is not covered by warranty.

Environmental Temperature
PSR050 pumps are rated for 0°C (32°F) – 50°C (122°F) environmental temperatures. Do not freeze fluid in pump. Operation below 0°C may accelerate wear. Normal wear is not covered by warranty.

Installation Instructions

  1. Move lever to up position.
  2. Slide base plate forward or pump body backward.
  3. Lift pump off of base plate. Pull-back dismount is standard. See steps 4.1-4.3 for forward dismount.
  4. Screw base plate to surface with 3/8 in or 10 mm socket head cap screws into pre-drilled holes.
  5. Set pump on base knobs; slide it forward. Set lever to down position.

Liquid Inlet/Outlet
Liquid ports are not NPT nor any other standard. Use of connectors other than those supplied by White Knight will damage the pump.

Shuttle Service Instructions

Follow instructions below to inspect or service White Knight shuttle valves. If a pump has stopped, ensure all recommendations in this manual are followed and that there are no air supply issues (i.e. closed air valve, damaged regulator, oil in air line, etc.).
Do not lubricate or oil any of the shuttle components. White Knight shuttle valves do not require any lubrication.

  1. Remove nuts on each air fitting on each pump head.

  2. Unscrew both shuttle mounting bolts, and pull the shuttle from the pump.

  3. Remove the airlines from both sides of the shuttle valve by unscrewing the air fittings.

  4. Unscrew top shuttle end cap using the shuttle end cap tool.
    Part: 12100-PV-0083

  5. Carefully remove ceramic spool from shuttle valve; it may break if dropped.
    If the ceramic spool in your pump has a flat feature, it is critical that it is oriented towards the bottom of the pump when the shuttle valve is reassembled.

  6. Unscrew bottom end cap using the shuttle end cap tool.

  7. Unscrew both 1/8 in NPT plugs that have an orifice in the center.

  8. Remove muffler cap from left side using the muffler cap tool. Remove muffler media and note the order of the pieces. Repeat this step for muffler cap and muffler media on the right side.

  9. Blow out shuttle valve with CDA or N2. Ensure no residue or debris is in any areas indicated above. Debris or residue in these areas may hinder pump performance.

  10. Clean the ceramic spool with IPA, and dry it using CDA or N2.

  11. Reassemble shuttle and reattach it to the pump by following the above steps in reverse. If the spool in your pump has the flat feature, ensure it is oriented towards the bottom of the pump when the shuttle valve is reassembled.

Control & Monitoring **

**

The PSR050 pump can be controlled and monitored using the following steps:

  1. Connect the pump to a power source and ensure it is properly grounded.
  2. Set the desired flow rate using the control panel or interface.
  3. Monitor the pump’s performance and pressure levels regularly.
  4. Adjust the settings as needed to maintain optimal operation.

Programmable Control
White Knight CPT-1 controllers monitor and adjust run mode, flow rate, leak detection and other pump operations.

Single Sensor Design
PSR050 pumps can use only a single fiber optic sensor at a time. The probe may be installed in the “F” port on either side of the pump. White Knight offers PFA, PFH, and PFU pumps for dual fiber optic use.

D10 Amplifier Electrical Hookups & Dimensions
White Knight recommends Expert™ D10 amplifier for use with fiber optic stroke and leak detection assemblies.

Fiber Optic Stroke Detection Installation

  1. Remove stroke detect probe  from fiber optic  assembly.

  2. Replace NPT plug in “F” port with stroke detect probe. Hand-tighten.

  3. Insert the fiber optic cable until it seats at the bottom of the probe.

  4. Lower ferrule and gripper until snug against probe and hand tighten female gripper nut.
    Fiber Optic Sensors
    Fiber optic sensors melt if used at >130°C (266°F), resulting in leak or end of stroke detection failure.

  5. Open the top and slide the front face of the D10 up. Press the fiber optic ends into the holes on its front. Slide the face down to lock cables in place.

Calibrating D10 Amplifier for Stroke Detection
When calibrating the D10 Amplifier for stroke detection, the pump should be in the same operating conditions it will be in during normal operation (i.e. supply air pressure, back pressure, etc.). The Fiber Optic must be installed as per the instructions in section 3.1.

Upon completion of a successful learning cycle, the D10 Amplifier will continuously learn and self-teach to maintain the same cycle rate count readings.

Single Pressure Switch Stroke Detection Installation

  1. Remove plug from “F” port. 
  2. Attach NPT gripper to  “F” port.
  3. Attach elbow assembly to pressure switch. Loosen female gripper nuts, and insert air tube between them. Hand tighten gripper nuts.

After your device is connected, you must set the switch point. If operating above 60 psi air supply, the set point is 43 psi (0.296 MPa), otherwise it is 18 psi (0.124 MPa). Each system is unique so values may need to be adjusted to your specific application. As the exhaust system loads, it may be necessary to adjust the set point.

Dual Pressure Switch Stroke Detection Installation
Perform all instructions to both sides of the pump.

  1. Attach T fittings to the “S” ports. 
  2. Attach mufflers to the T fittings.
  3. Attach elbow assemblies to pressure switches.
  4. Loosen female gripper nuts on elbow assemblies and T fittings. Insert tubing and hand-tighten gripper nuts.
  5. Affix supply air via 1/4 in FNPT QEV ports on both sides. Air supply must be 1/4 in minimum orifice to source.

After your device is connected, you must set the switch point. If operating above 60 psi air supply, the set point is 43 psi (0.296 MPa), otherwise it is 18 psi (0.124 MPa). Each system is unique so values may need to be adjusted to your specific application. As the exhaust system loads, it may be necessary to adjust the set point.

Conductivity Leak Detection Installation
Leaks are identified if conductive fluid contacts a sensor. Sensor provides a Sink (NPN) or Source (PNP) signal, depending on the wire setup. See the wiring diagrams below.
Conductive leak detection does not qualify for use in explosion-proof environments. Conductive fluid required. See below for elbow out configuration.

  1. Remove leak adapter from  assembly.
  2. Replace NPT plug in “L” port with probe. Hand Tighten. Attach cable to signal translator (e.g. PLC).

Fiber Optic Leak Detection Installation
D10 amplifier must be calibrated before attaching fiber optic probes to the pump. Fiber optic sensors can melt if used at >130°C (266°F), causing leak detect failure.
See below for elbow out configuration.

  1. Remove leak adapter and leak detect probe from fiber optic assembly.
  2. For straight out configuration replace NPT plug in “L” port with the probe. Hand-tighten.
  3. Insert the fiber optic cable until it contacts the bottom of the probe.
  4. Lower ferrule and gripper until snug against the probe. Hand tighten female gripper nut.
  5. Open the top and slide the front face of the D10 up. Press the fiber optic ends into the holes on its front. Slide the face down to lock cables in place.

Automatically maintain laminar flow or steady pressure with metal-free closed- loop pump systems offering stable temperatures, dead-head and suction lift. Control your high purity chemical processes and delivery systems. Simplify process automation to save time, resources and reduce costs.
https://wkfluidhandling.com/closed-loop/

Pulse Dampeners
In-line and pump-mounted pulse dampeners reduce pulsation in fluid systems to improve flow control, increase batch yields, protect components, and minimize maintenance and downtime for repairs. DBA030 dampeners fit 30 and 60 lpm pumps. DBA060 dampeners fit 30, 60 and 140 lpm pumps. DBA140 dampeners fit 60 and 140 lpm pumps.
https://wkfluidhandling.com/dampeners/

  • ≤ 140 lpm (36 gpm) flow rates
  • ≤ 7 Bar (100 psi) pressures
  • ≤ 210°C (410°F) temperatures
  • Maintain stable temperatures
  • No metals, no corrosion
  • No elastomer O-rings, no leaks
  • No electric motors, no heat rise

Pressure Regulators
White Knight pressure regulators offer remote piloting capability to maintain system pressure for high-purity chemical circulation loops and systems with multiple tool drops or dispense points. They feature fully-swept PTFE/PFA flow paths. A single back-pressure regulator equalizes upstream fluid pressure across multiple discharge outlets. Forward-pressure regulators control downstream pressure.

Back-pressure regulator

A single back-pressure regulator equalizes upstream  fluid pressure for discharge outlets. Each forward-pressure regulator controls fluid pressure for a single discharge outlet.

Forward-a pressure regulator

Filter Housings
Two-chamber and four-chamber filter housings provide parallel or series (in-line) operation. Their compact, non-metallic PTFE/PFA designs offer superior containment and high-flow performance within a smaller footprint than traditional housings. They fit many filter types, and enable filters to be changed without disconnecting liquid lines. https://wkfluidhandling.com /filter-housings/

Cycle-Rate Translator
The CPT enables pump replacements in existing tools. It operates a White Knight pump at its optimal cycle rate and scales the operational cycle rate to that expected by the tool. https://wkfluidhandling.com/cpt/

Catcher™ Pre-Filters

White Knight Catcher™ pre-filters protect pumps from wafer shards and other harmful solids. They can be cleaned without disconnecting liquid lines. https://wkfluidhandling.com/catchers/

FAQ

  1. Q: How can I calculate the displacement per cycle?
    A: To calculate the displacement per cycle, divide the flow rate by the cycles per minute (CPM). For example, if the flow rate is 57.5 lpm and the CPM is 258, the displacement per cycle would be 0.223 liters (57.5/258).

  2. Q: What is the recommended suction lift for the PSR050 pump?
    A: The recommended suction lift for the PSR050 pump is 1 meter (3 feet). It is important to note that suction lift diminishes over time, so it is advisable to install the pump at a level less than 3 feet above the source.

  3. Q: How is sound pressure measured for the PSR050 pump?
    A: Sound pressure for the PSR050 pump is measured in accordance with ISO9614-2:1997. The sound pressure levels are specified in decibels (dB(a)) and may vary depending on the pump’s operating conditions.
