"What does the SPILLSTOP LEAK CONTAINMENT SYSTEM do?"
|
 |
|
|
| |
 |
The patented SPILLSTOP LEAK CONTAINMENT SYSTEM,
which is pneumatically operated, captures any liquid expelled from the
air exhaust of an air operated double diaphragm pump that can occur as a
result of diaphragm failure in the pump. The pump is automatically
turned off and a standby pump and/or an alarm can be actuated.
SPILLSTOP's patented design safely captures leaked product while
effectively shutting down failing pumps. Optional warning alarm and
backup pump switchover further ensures maximum productivity and minimal
system downtime. |

 |
"How does SPILLSTOP work?"
|
 |
|
|
| |
 |
If
a leak develops through the pump's diaphragm, the pumped liquid will
enter the pump's air exhaust and will be carried to the SPILLSTOP. As
liquid is accumulated in the SPILLSTOP, an internal float will be raised
and airflow will be shifted through the SPILLSTOP's three-way valve.
When this shifting occurs, air pressure will be removed from the pump
shut off valve, closing it. This stops the pump, and prevents the
spill. |

 |
"How is SPILLSTOP powered?"
|
 |
|
|
| |
 |
SPILLSTOP is pneumatically operated. There are no hazardous electronics or unreliable batteries used. |
|
| |
 |
"What type of pump does SPILLSTOP work with?"
|
 |
|
|
| |
 |
The SPILLSTOP LEAK CONTAINMENT SYSTEM
is designed for use with air operated double diaphragm (AODD) pumps.
Diaphragm failure of your AODD pump allows process fluid to escape from
the pump's air exhaust port. Unmonitored, the spill can create an
extreme expense for your company in lost product, material cleanup and
EPA reporting. |

| |
 |
"How much maintenance is required?"
|
 |
|
|
| |
 |
SPILLSTOP is normally maintenance free. A function test of the unit should be conducted quarterly. |
|
| |
 |
"How do I drain the process liquid collected in the SPILLSTOP?"
|
 |
|
|
| |
 |
SPILLSTOP
has a petcock valve located on the bottom of the unit. A tube or hose
should be attached to the petcock so that liquid can be drained into a
container suitable for the type of liquid involved. After the SPILLSTOP
is drained, it will automatically reset itself and be ready for the
next time an event occurs. |
