5. Switch the Bisulfite pump with the chemical pump to be replaced as follows (see Figure 10):
a. Disconnect the discharge tube from both the Bisulfite pump and the pump to be changed
out.
b. Connect the discharge tube for the pump being changed out to the discharge outlet of the
Bisulfite pump.
c. Set the speed switch on the pump being changed out to the OFF position.
NOTE
The Bisulfite pump does not start and stop with the HP Pumps. Therefore, the
operator will need to set the Bisulfite switch to ON immediately after starting the
HP pumps and to OFF immediately after setting the Mode Switch to Standby. If the
HP pumps stop due to an alarm shutdown, the operator must also set the Bisulfite
switch to OFF as soon as possible.
6. Set the Bisulfite switch to ON. Prime the replacement chemical pump following the procedure in
in WP 0014 for the proper settings for the Speed and Stroke after the pump is primed.
7. Tape a note on the Bisulfite pump stating it's current use (antiscalant or hypochlorite). Tape a
similar note on the OCP near the Bisulfite pump switch.
8. Start up the TWPS. Refer to WP 0015. Remember to set the Bisulfite switch to ON after starting
the HP pumps.
