CHEM-FEED® Municipal Skid Systems

Series CFS

Introduction

Congratulations on purchasing the Chem-Feed® Engineered Skid System. The system is designed with the necessary components to safely inject liquid chemical into a system.
Your Chem-Feed® Engineered Skid System is pre-configured based on your selections via the matrix or when designed with our engineering staff.
Please Note: Your new Chem-Feed® System has been pressure tested at the factory with clean water for a minimum of four hours before shipping. You may notice trace amounts of clean water in the system. This is part of our stringent quality assurance program at Blue-White Industries.

Features

Chem-Feed® Engineered Skid Systems were designed and engineered using solid modeling tools for superior piping installation and easy component maintenance. Custom engineered universal mounting blocks and pre-machined mounting slots provide for easy component servicing and replacement. Each factory built and tested system includes the following standard components:

• Pressure Relief Valve – Protects the system from over-pressurization, 5-100 psi setting range, 150 psi maximum system pressure. Ships on all systems.

• Check Valve – Protects the user from back-flow during pump maintenance. Ships on all systems.

• Flow Verification Sensor – S6A accurately verifies chemical feed. Exclusive to Blue-White®.

• Inlet Y Strainer – Protects system components from damage cause by dirt or debris.

• Calibration Cylinder – Confirm pump output under system conditions. Specify cylinder volumes from 1.6 GPH to 32 GPH.

• Pulsation Dampener – Protect the system components from pulsation. Recommended for diaphragm pump systems.
  Not recommended for peristaltic pump systems.

• Pressure Gage with Guard – Isolate and protect the system pressure gage. Specify pressure ranges from 0-100psi, or 0-200 psi.

• Mounting Pads – Stainless Steel mounting pads to secure Chem-Feed® System to a solid surface. Designed for floor mount or wall mount.

• Corrosion Resistant – Chem-Feed® frame constructed of chemically resistant polyester powder coated 6061 T6 aluminum. Welded joint construction.
