Product catalog summary
Overview: Milton Roy test tube Calibration Columns are designed for determining the flow rates of chemical metering pumps. Regular verification of pump flow rates is crucial for maintaining system accuracy. These columns offer a quick, easy, and cost-effective method for checking flow rates.
Specifications: The Calibration Columns are available in six sizes, each suitable for different pump capacities, ranging from 60 ml for pumps up to 2.0 GPH to 4000 ml for pumps up to 120 GPH. They are constructed from rugged PVC and feature easy-to-read labels with operating instructions. The columns are graduated in ml and standard divisions, eliminating the need for conversion.
Installation Notes: Important installation notes include venting the unit to the atmosphere during use, not using the device on the discharge side of the pump, and ensuring the maximum pressure does not exceed the static head pressure of the tank. The maximum temperature is 130°F, and the device may not be suitable for all chemicals.
Installation Instructions: The test tube should be installed vertically in the suction line to the chemical feed pump, adjacent to the chemical storage tank. Two ball valves are required for installation, and a return line must be provided to connect the top of the calibration column to supply tanks. A support strap is included for added stability.
Operating Instructions: To operate, fill the test tube with liquid, close valve A when the liquid reaches the zero division mark, and allow the liquid level to drop for at least 30 seconds. Calculate the pump flow rate by dividing the number of divisions the liquid has dropped by the number of minutes used. For the TT-4000 model, multiply the result by ten.
Accessories: Milton Roy offers additional accessories such as back pressure valves, pressure gauges, pulsation dampeners, floats, gauge glasses, tanks, valve actuators, mixers, safety valves, traps, and dissolving baskets.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS The recommended installation is shown below. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS A stop watch or standard wrist watch with sweep second hand is required. 1. Install the test tube in the suction line to the chemical feed pump. The test tube should be installed in a vertical position, adjacent to the chemical storage tank. The test tube is filled by gravity; therefore, the tank must be full, or nearly full, in order to use the test tube. 1. With the pump operating normally, storage tank full or nearly full, and both valve A and valve B in the full open position, the test tube will...
