FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The MizAir (patent pending) is microprocessor controlled air dispensing system designed to reduce air consumption of air operated diaphragm pumps (AODD).

THEORY OF OPERATION – The beauty of the MizAir system is in its simplicity.  The best way to save energy in any system is not to put in excess energy.  The MizAir uses an end of stroke signal off of the diaphragm pump to determine exact time to dispense precise burst of air sufficient to accelerate the diaphragm and complete a single stroke.  This process is then repeated in order to stroke the pump in opposite direction. The amount of air required depends on the head pressure of the pump.  The higher the head pressure, the larger is the burst of air that is required.  The heart of the system is our specially designed air-piloted, two-way normally open valve.  This valve has a large Cv rating sufficient to quickly deliver the pre-determined volume of air.  After the air is dispensed, the valve shuts off until the control circuit reactivates the valve for the return stroke.

INSTALLATION - The unit is simple to install. Remove the ¾” NPT air supply line from the diaphragm pump.  Install a ¾” NPT nipple into the pump, screw the outlet port of the MizAir on to the nipple.  Attach the air supply line to the inlet port of the MizAir. Connect 24vdc to the power plug and the MizAir is ready.

BENEFITS – The primary benefit of the MizAir is the reduction of energy cost.  In-house testing on 2 to 3” NPT pumps from various manufacturers, resulted in air consumption (SCFM)

savings up to 50 %.  These tests were performed under head

pressure from 0 psig (transfer mode) to 70 psig.  There are

additional benefits to the reduced air consumption and energy

saving, pumps run quieter and because there is less stress on

moving parts, maintenance intervals will be lengthened. Also,

since less compressed air is being consumed compressed air

filter and preparation systems will likewise need service less

frequently.
