Accessories
Install the following accessories in the order shown in
, page 9, using adapters as necessary.
Air and Fluid Hoses
Be sure all air and fluid hoses are properly sized and
pressure--rated for your system. Use only conductive
air and fluid hoses. Fluid hoses must have spring
guards on both ends.
Connect a conductive fluid hose (L) to the pump’s fluid
outlet. See F
on page 6.
Connect a fluid suction hose (N) to the pump’s 3/4
npt(f) fluid intake.
Use a conductive 1/2 in. I.D. (minimum) air hose (H) to
supply air to the pump.
Air Line
•
Bleed-type master air valve (D):
required in your
system to relieve air trapped between it and the air
motor when the valve is closed.
NOTE:
Be sure the valve is easily accessible from
the pump and located downstream from the air
regulator.
•
Pump runaway valve (B):
senses when the pump
is running too fast and automatically shuts off the
air to the motor. A pump which runs too fast can be
seriously damaged.
•
Air line lubricator (C):
provides automatic air
motor lubrication.
•
Pump air regulator (E):
to control pump speed and
outlet pressure. Locate it close to the pump.
•
Air line filter (F):
removes harmful dirt and moisture
from compressed air supply.
•
Second bleed-type air valve (G):
isolates air line
accessories for servicing. Locate upstream from all
other air line accessories.
Fluid Line
•
Fluid filter (K):
filters particles from the fluid as it
leaves the pump.
•
Fluid drain valve (J):
required in your system, to
relieve fluid pressure in the hose and gun
•
Gun (M):
to dispense fluid.
Flush Before Using Equipment
The equipment was tested with lightweight oil, which is
left in the fluid passages to protect parts. To avoid
contaminating your fluid with oil, flush the equipment
with a compatible solvent before using the equipment.
.
If the pump is being used to supply a circulating
system, allow the solvent to circulate until the pump is
thoroughly flushed.
Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle
unexpectedly which could result in serious injury
from moving parts or splashing. A bleed--type
master air valve (D) is required in your system to
relieve trapped air between the valve and the pump
after the air is shut off.
Unrelieved fluid pressure in the system can result in a
skin injection injury. Triggering the gun to relieve
pressure may not be sufficient. A fluid drain valve (J)
is required in your system to help reduce the risk of
serious bodily injury including skin injection operating
or repairing the pump.
