PTFE Check Valve Ball Features

The L1000500-TFE PTFE ball provides a replacement sealing component for compatible chemical metering pump check valves.

PTFE is used in chemical-handling applications because it offers resistance to many industrial chemicals. The material must be selected according to the specific fluid and operating conditions.

Check Valve Sealing Function

Check valve balls help control fluid direction during the suction and discharge cycles of a chemical metering pump.

The PULSAtron L1000500-TFE moves within the valve assembly and seats against the corresponding valve seat to help limit reverse flow.

Correct ball diameter and material selection are important for maintaining the intended sealing arrangement.

Chemical Metering Pump Applications

The L1000500-TFE replacement valve ball is intended for compatible PULSAtron wet-end assemblies requiring a 3/8-inch PTFE check valve ball.

Potential applications include:

• PULSAtron chemical metering pump maintenance
• Compatible suction and discharge check valve assemblies
• Industrial chemical feed systems
• Water treatment chemical dosing installations
• Wastewater treatment chemical injection equipment
• Replacement of damaged or worn valve balls

Maintenance and Inspection

Inspect the valve ball for surface damage, deformation, excessive wear and chemical deterioration during scheduled pump servicing.

Check the associated valve seat for damage or contamination that could prevent proper sealing.

Replacing damaged valve components with correctly specified parts supports reliable chemical metering pump operation.

Replacement and Installation

Before ordering the Pulsafeeder PULSAtron L1000500-TFE, confirm the pump model, original part number, ball diameter and wet-end material configuration.

Verify that PTFE is compatible with the process fluid and operating conditions.

Always isolate and depressurize the chemical feed system before servicing the check valve assembly. Follow the applicable manufacturer installation and maintenance instructions.
