3. Equipment Inspection

When you receive your order, check all equipment for:

 Completeness against the shipping document / purchase order

 Evidence of shipping damage.

Shortages or damage should be reported immediately to the carrier and your PULSAFEEDER

representative.

4. Storage

The AVA can be successfully stored for extended periods. The key to this success is temperature and

humidity control.

Be certain to follow the additional storage instructions provided in the IOM for the PULSAR

or PULSAR

Shadow

pumps, and also those included in the IOM for any controllers (DLC, DLCM, ECA) that are

attached to the pump.

4.1 Short Term (0 - 12 months)

The AVA should be stored in a temperature and humidity controlled environment. It is preferable to

keep the temperature constant in the range of -18 to 60 Celsius (0 to 140 Fahrenheit). The relative

humidity should be 0 to 90% non-condensing.

If the AVA is installed on the pump, it should not be removed during this period – provided the above

conditions can be applied to the pump as well. If the AVA was shipped in its own carton, it should be

stored in that carton.

4.2 Long Term (12 months or more)

Storage of the AVA for periods of longer than twelve months is not recommended. If extended storage

is unavoidable the AVA should be stored in accordance with those conditions stipulated for Short Term

Storage. In addition, a porous bag of 85g (3 oz) silica gel or similar desiccant should be placed inside

the AVA enclosure. The cover should be re-installed to seal the desiccant within the enclosure. The

conduit connection must be tightly capped.
