GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Bink's Diaphragm Pump offers high volume delivery even at low air
pressure. Bink's pumps feature stall resistant design, modular air motor /
fluid sections.
Air operated double diaphragm pumps utilize a pressure differential in
the air chambers to alternately create suction and positive fluid pressure in
the fluid chambers, ball checks insure a positive flow of fluid.
Pump cycling will begin as air pressure is applied and it will continue to
pump and keep up with the demand. It will build and maintain line presĆ
sure and will stop cycling once maximum line pressure is reached (disĆ
pensing device closed) and will resume pumping as needed.
Models 818831 and 818836: The Acetal material used in these pumps
contains Stainless Steel fibers. It's conductivity allows it to be connected
to a suitable ground. A ground screw and ground wire kit is provided for
this.
AIR AND LUBE REQUIREMENTS
S
Use a filter capable of filtering out particles larger than 50 microns on
the air supply. There is no lubrication required other than the O" ring
lubricant which is applied during assembly or repair.
S
If lubricated air is present, make sure that it is compatible with the
Nitrile O" rings in the air motor section of the pump.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
S
Always flush the pump with a solvent compatible with the material
being pumped if the material being pumped is subject to setting up"
when not in use for a period of time.
S
Disconnect the air supply from the pump if it is to be inactive for a few
hours.
S
The outlet material volume is governed not only by the air supply but
also by the material supply available at the inlet. The material supply
tubing should not be too small or restrictive. Be sure not to use hose
which might collapse.
S
When the diaphragm pump is used in a forcedĆfeed (flooded inlet)
situation, it is recommended that a Check Valve" be installed at the
air inlet.
S
Secure the diaphragm pump legs to a suitable surface to insure
against damage by vibration.
MAINTENANCE
S
Provide a clean work surface to protect sensitive internal moving
parts from contamination from dirt and foreign matter during service
disassembly and reassembly.
S
Keep good records of service activity and include pump in prevenĆ
tive maintenance program.
S
Service Kits are available to service three separate Diaphragm
Pump functions: 1. AIR SECTION, 2. DIAPHRAGM SECTION, 3.
BALL and SEAT SECTION.
