1. General

Vaccuperm VGS-140 high-performance disinfection systems
• Pressure sensors for more safety: optional pressure
sensors for injector vacuum and operating vacuum
allow the early detection of disturbances such as
insufficient injector vacuum or vacuum regulator
faults.
• Precise scan system for the flowmeter: the inductive
sensor is insensitive to soiling and does not get into
contact with the aggressive gas to be dosed. The
resolution of the signal is about 2 % of the limit
value of the measuring range.
• Systems with direct proportional control: the
servomotor of the rate valve can optionally be
equipped with electronics (4-20 mA input) for direct
proportional control without additional control
electronics.
General
• Automation of the dosing process: optionally a
microprocessor-based controller can be integrated
for PID control or for compound loop control.
• Ergonomic and service-friendly design: all control
elements and displays are installed at eye-level for
easy handling. Easy change-over from automatic to
manual operation. All assembly and service work
can be executed with a few standard tools.
Note: Vaccuperm VGS-140 are expert systems.
All component configurations must be adapted to the
requirements on site. For assistance, please ask our
product specialists or project department.

High-capacity injectors 545 Dimensions

The selection of the injector to be used for the specific

D2
task determines the safe functioning of the entire
chlorine gas system. The important criteria are the
motive water pressure and counterpressure as well as
the dosing capacity. The indication of the customer

H
data and the operating point are necessary for the

D1
D1
decision.

TM04 1334 2609

• Due to the special form of the nozzle, the operating
costs are low and efficiency is improved.
L
• Easy selection of the operating point thanks to the
optimum graduation of the product range.
Fig. 6 High-capacity injector 545
• The construction according to the flow allows a
reduction of the pressure losses of the non-return
diaphragm valve.
• A safety non-return diaphragm valve according to
the floater principle protects the dosing unit
disposed upstream optimally from the entry of water
or chlorine solution.
• Injectors for ammonia and sulphur dioxide are
available on request.

Change-over device 185

Accessories

The change-over device is installed between two gas

container batteries to ensure an uninterrupted gas
supply. It automatically changes over from the empty
battery to the full standby battery.
• Application: liquid or gaseous chlorine under
pressure.
• Reliable change-over function due to the two
independent motor valves with manual operation in
case of power failure.
• Overload-proof single-phase AC motors for valve
actuation.
• Practically no leakage losses thanks to the PTFE
packings of the stuffing boxes.
• High functional safety and resistance to wear and
tear thanks to the materials resistant against the
dosing media.
• Indication of the switching status of the valves with
control lamps.
• Transmission of the operating status via a
potential-free changeover contact.

WebCAPS
WebCAPS is a Web-based Computer Aided Product
Selection program available on www.grundfos.com.
WebCAPS contains detailed information on more than
220,000 Grundfos products in more than
30 languages.
Information in WebCAPS is divided into six sections:
• Catalogue
• Literature
• Service
• Sizing
• Replacement
• CAD drawings.

Catalogue

Based on fields of application and pump types, this section

contains the following:
• technical data
• curves (QH, Eta, P1, P2, etc.) which can be adapted to the
density and viscosity of the pumped liquid and show the
number of pumps in operation
• product photos
• dimensional drawings
• wiring diagrams
• quotation texts, etc.

Literature

This section contains all the latest documents of a given pump,

such as
• data booklets
• installation and operating instructions
• service documentation, such as Service kit catalogue and
Service kit instructions
• quick guides
• product brochures.

Service

This section contains an easy-to-use interactive service

catalogue. Here you can find and identify service parts of both
existing and discontinued Grundfos pumps.
Furthermore, the section contains service videos showing you
how to replace service parts.

Further product documentation

Sizing 0 1

This section is based on different fields of application and

installation examples and gives easy step-by-step instructions in
how to size a product:
• Select the most suitable and efficient pump for your
installation.
• Carry out advanced calculations based on energy,
consumption, payback periods, load profiles, life cycle costs,
etc.
• Analyse your selected pump via the built-in life cycle cost tool.
• Determine the flow velocity in wastewater applications, etc.

Replacement

In this section you find a guide to selecting and comparing

replacement data of an installed pump in order to replace the
pump with a more efficient Grundfos pump.
The section contains replacement data of a wide range of pumps
produced by other manufacturers than Grundfos.

Based on an easy step-by-step guide, you can compare

Grundfos pumps with the one you have installed on your site.
When you have specified the installed pump, the guide will
suggest a number of Grundfos pumps which can improve both
comfort and efficiency.

CAD drawings

In this section, it is possible to download 2-dimensional (2D) and

3-dimensional (3D) CAD drawings of most Grundfos pumps.

These formats are available in WebCAPS:

2-dimensional drawings:
• .dxf, wireframe drawings
• .dwg, wireframe drawings.

3-dimensional drawings:
• .dwg, wireframe drawings (without surfaces)
• .stp, solid drawings (with surfaces)
• .eprt, E-drawings.

WinCAPS
WinCAPS is a Windows-based Computer Aided
Product Selection program containing detailed
information on more than 220,000 Grundfos products
in more than 30 languages.
The program contains the same features and functions
as WebCAPS, but is an ideal solution if no internet
connection is available.
WinCAPS is available on DVD and updated once a
year.
