General Description – Section 1.1
High Quality materials and surface treatments are used in the construction of this pump to
ensure both extended operational life and good future appearance.
The Maple pump is a horizontal piston pump for pumping Solvent / Waterborne Paints,
Solvents and other suitable materials.
An Ø125 x 50mm stroke air motor is used to drive two fluid sections giving a combined
output of 0.375 L per cycle.
The unit combines an energy efficient air motor with low shear fluid section technology from
the range of Smart Electric Pumps.
The Maple Pump achieves a reciprocating drive by using high technology ground and
lapped steel spool and sleeve air valves to control the air motor reversal, providing
reciprocating motion.
The air valve design (patent pending) ensures a positive magnetic detent for the main and
pilot air valves thus removing the possibility for a stall condition.
The air motor also utilises the Binks Low Ice quick exhaust technology to prevent air valve
freezing conditions when high cycle speeds are employed.
Equal thrust on each stroke due to the horizontal configuration incorporating the dual piston
rod design gives a balanced fluid pressure output and reduces fluid pressure fluctuations to
a minimum.
The air pump is furnished with twin exhaust mufflers to control exhaust noise emission. An
adapter kit is available to facilitate connection to a piped exhaust system if required.
A 1/8” Port is incorporated into the main air valve to facilitate an optional cycle counter.
