PULSAtron K2PTC1 KOPkit Pump Head Repair Kit
PULSAtron K2PTC1 KOPkit for PTC1 wet ends with GFPPL head and fittings, PTFE seals, ceramic valve balls and 3/8-inch OD tubing connections.
The PULSAtron K2PTC1 is a KOPkit pump head repair and maintenance kit for compatible PULSAtron chemical metering pumps equipped with the PTC1 wet-end configuration. It brings together the primary liquid-end service components needed for routine pump maintenance.
PULSAtron documentation uses K2PTC1 as a direct example of how its KOPkit numbering system works. The kit corresponds to a head-size 2 pump with the PTC1 wet-end configuration.
K2PTC1 Product Configuration
- Part Number: K2PTC1
- Product Type: KOPkit / Pump Head Repair Kit
- Product Family: PULSAtron
- Wet-End Configuration: PTC1
- Head Size Code: 2
- Head & Fittings: GFPPL / Polypropylene
- Seats & O-Rings: TFE / PTFE
- Valve Balls: Ceramic
- Tubing Connection: 3/8-Inch OD
Understanding the PTC1 Configuration
The PULSAtron wet-end code identifies the materials and connection style used in the liquid end. For PTC1, the letter P identifies the GFPPL/polypropylene head and fittings, T identifies TFE/PTFE seats and O-rings, C identifies ceramic valve balls, and 1 identifies the tubing connection for 3/8-inch OD tubing.
This makes the K2PTC1 a configuration-specific maintenance kit rather than a universal replacement kit. The complete pump model should therefore be checked before installation.
Designed for Liquid-End Maintenance
The liquid end of a chemical metering pump contains components that repeatedly contact the pumped chemical and operate during every suction and discharge stroke. Over time, normal wear or chemical deposits can affect diaphragm and check-valve performance.
The K2PTC1 KOPkit provides matched replacement components for servicing compatible PTC1 liquid ends, making routine maintenance easier and helping return the pump to dependable operating condition.
What the KOPkit Provides
PULSAtron KOPkits are designed around the principal service components of the pump liquid end. Depending on the applicable pump configuration, the kit provides the matched components required for servicing the pump head, diaphragm and suction/discharge valve assemblies.
- Pump head components for the PTC1 configuration
- Diaphragm for liquid-end service
- Complete suction valve assembly
- Complete discharge valve assembly
- Required O-rings and sealing components
- Associated head hardware
GFPPL, PTFE & Ceramic Construction
The PTC1 wet end combines a GFPPL/polypropylene head and fittings with TFE/PTFE seats and O-rings and ceramic valve balls. This material combination is used in compatible PULSAtron chemical metering pump configurations.
Chemical compatibility should always be checked for the actual fluid, concentration, temperature and operating conditions before servicing or installing wetted components.
3/8-Inch OD Tubing Connection
The final digit 1 in PTC1 identifies the connection configuration for 3/8-inch OD tubing. Matching the tubing connection is important when selecting a KOPkit because PULSAtron wet ends are available with different connection arrangements.
Example Pump Application
PULSAtron KOPkit documentation specifically uses LB02SA-PTC1-XXX as an example pump model and identifies K2PTC1 as its completed KOPkit number.
Other PULSAtron pump models with the same head-size and PTC1 service configuration may also use K2PTC1. Always confirm the complete pump model before ordering or installing replacement parts.
Why Use the Correct KOPkit?
- Provides components matched to the PTC1 wet end
- Simplifies preventive liquid-end maintenance
- Helps restore proper suction and discharge valve operation
- Supports reliable pump priming
- Helps maintain consistent chemical delivery
- Reduces the need to identify individual service components separately
Maintenance Note
Inspect the liquid end periodically for diaphragm wear, leakage, chemical deposits and contamination around the check valves. Maintenance intervals depend on the chemical being pumped, operating conditions and pump usage.
Before installing the K2PTC1, verify the complete PULSAtron pump model and confirm that the required KOPkit configuration is K2PTC1.
