Mounting
1. Plan the mounting layout for easy operator access
to the pump air controls, sufficient room to change
drums and a secure mounting platform.
2. If using a follow plate (H), remove the drum cover.
Scoop the material to the center of the drum. Place
the plate on the material. Guide the pump foot valve
through the plate.
3. Mount the pump to the drum cover or other suitable
mounting device.
4. For ease in changing drums, install a pump eleva-
tor.
Air and Fluid Line Accessories
Refer to F
. 2 for the following instructions.
Three accessories are
required
in your system: an air
shut-off valve/air bleed device, fluid drain valve, and
ground wire. These accessories help reduce the risk of
serious bodily injury, including fluid injection, splashing
in the yes or on the skin, injury from moving parts if
you are adjusting or repair the pump, and explosion
from static sparking.
• The air bleed device relieves air trapped between it
and air motor after the air supply is shut off.
Trapped air can cause the motor to cycle
unexpectedly, causing serious injury if you are
adjusting or repairing the pump. Use a bleed-type
master air valve (J). Install them near the pump air
inlet within easy reach from the pump.
• The fluid drain (K) assists in relieve fluid pressure
in the displacement pump, hoses, and dispensing
valve. Triggering the valve to relieve pressure may
not be sufficient.
• The ground wire (B) reduces the risk of static
sparking.
NOTE:
Install the air line accessories in the order shown
in Fig.
1. Install a pump runaway valve (G) to shut off the air
to the pump if the pump accelerates beyond the
pre-adjusted setting. A pump that runs too fast can
be seriously damaged.
2. Install an air line lubricator (F) for automatic air
motor lubrication.
3. Install a bleed-type master air valve (J) to relieve air
trapped between the valve and the motor.
4. Install the air regulator (C) to control pump speed
and pressure.
5. Install an air line filter (E) to remove harmful dirt and
contaminants from the compressed air supply.
6. Install a second bleed-type master air valve (J)
upstream from all other accessories, to isolate the
accessories for servicing.
Mount the pump securely so that it cannot move
around during operation. Failure to do so could result
in personal injury or equipment damage.
NOTICE
Do not hand the air accessories directly on the air
inlet. The fittings are not strong enough to support the
accessories and may cause one or more to break.
Provides a bracket on which to mount the accesso-
ries.
