Keep your Reimer Running at Peak Performance 

Regularly flushing your admixture system is an important part of the maintenance for your Reimer Mixer. Follow these steps to ensure that proper maintenance is performed…

1. Remove screens from the admixture filters.
2. Flush the tanks with clean, hot water.
3. Wash screens and replace.
4. Pump hot water throughout the entire system.
   NOTE: the pump head may be disassembled for cleaning and inspection.
   NOTE: be aware that the LOW flow pump will have 2 plungers removed from the valve assembly.
5. Flow meters may also be disassembled for cleaning and inspection – a good reference source in an online manual at www.hedland.com form # HLIT 205-2G.
   NOTE: If the system has been frozen, the flow meter tube may have expanded which will prevent the indicator from moving freely.
6. Check the condition of all hoses, valves and fittings. Replace where necessary, repair any leaks.
7. Confirm that the pumps will operate in both the prime and on positions.
   NOTE: The on position will also require the conveyor belt switch to be activated.
8. Pump a full tank of clean water through the system.
9. When you are ready to use the system with chemicals, recheck your calibration data and confirm that you are accurately metering product.

You can easily add a wash-out system that is connected to the mixer water circuit with a small amount of plumbing. This will allow for periodic cleaning of the admixture system with very little effort.

During freezing conditions, it is recommended that RV anti-freeze be circulated throughout the lines to prevent freeze-up. The anti-freeze can be purged and collected for re-use when you begin to use admixture chemicals.
