Introdución
This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient installation, operation, and maintenance of your Remco 5500 Series ProFlo Demand Pump, model 5537-1E1-65C. This professional-grade pump is designed for various agricultural and industrial spraying applications, offering reliable performance and durability.
Información de seguridade
Please read and understand all safety instructions before operating the pump. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in injury or damage to the equipment.
- Seguridade eléctrica: Ensure the pump is connected to a 115 VAC power source. Use appropriate wiring (14 AWG leads) and ensure all electrical connections are secure and protected.
- Límites de temperatura: The maximum liquid temperature should not exceed 140°F (60°C). The maximum motor temperature is 180°F (82°C), but for optimal performance and motor life, the motor surface temperature should not exceed 150°F (66°C). The motor is not equipped with thermal protection.
- Compatibilidade química: This pump is compatible with common agricultural chemicals such as herbicides, fertilizers, and insecticides. Always verify chemical compatibility before use to prevent damage to pump components.
- Presión: The pump operates at 60 PSI (4.1 Bar) on demand. Ensure your system can handle this pressure.
- Montaxe: Securely mount the pump using the integrated bracket to prevent vibration and movement during operation.

Configuración
- Montaxe: Securely fasten the pump to a stable surface using the integrated mounting bracket. Ensure the pump is positioned to allow for proper ventilation and access for connections.
- Conexións de fontanería: Connect your inlet and outlet lines to the 1/2" FNPT threaded ports. Use appropriate fittings and sealants to ensure leak-free connections. The pump is self-priming up to 14 feet (4.0 meters) vertically.
- Conexión eléctrica: Connect the 14 AWG wire leads to a dedicated 115 VAC power supply. Ensure the power source is fused and protected according to local electrical codes. Verify correct polarity.
- Cebado do sistema: Before initial operation, ensure the pump and lines are filled with liquid to facilitate priming.
Operación
The Remco 5500 Series pump operates in demand mode, meaning it will run when there is a demand for fluid and shut off when the system pressure reaches 60 PSI. This allows for efficient operation and reduced power consumption.
- Arranque da bomba: Once all connections are secure and the system is primed, apply power to the pump. The pump will start when a flow demand is detected.
- Seguimento: Observe the pump during operation for any unusual noises, leaks, or excessive heat.
- Ciclo de traballo: The pump is designed for intermittent duty cycles. While it can withstand long cycles, continuous operation at maximum load may reduce its lifespan. Monitor motor temperature to ensure it stays below 150°F (66°C).
- Capacidade de funcionamento en seco: The pump has dry run capability, meaning it can operate without fluid for short periods without damage. However, prolonged dry running should be avoided.
Mantemento
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Remco pump.
- Limpeza: Periodically inspect the pump for dirt, debris, or chemical residue. Clean the exterior with a damp pano.
- Conexións: Regularly check all plumbing and electrical connections for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion.
- Invernización: If operating in freezing conditions, ensure the pump and lines are completely drained or protected with appropriate antifreeze solutions to prevent damage.
- Chemical Residue: After using corrosive or sticky chemicals, flush the pump with clean water to prevent buildup and ensure proper valve function.
