Operation
Pressure Relief Procedure
1.
Close the bleed-type master air valve (B) to shut off
the air to the equipment.
2.
Open outbound fluid valve to relieve fluid pressure
from the equipment.
a. For simple transfer applications, open either
the fluid shutoff valve (K) or the fluid drain
valve
(J).
b. For circulating applications, ensure that the
fluid shutoff valve (K) is closed and open the fluid
drain valve (J).
Flush Before Using Equipment
NOTE: The equipment was tested with water. If water
could contaminate your fluid, flush the equipment with a
compatible solvent before using the equipment.
Properly flush the equipment before use. Perform Start
and Adjust the Equipment, page 12, and Flushing
and Storage, page 13.
Start and Adjust the Equipment
1.
Confirm that the equipment is properly grounded.
See Grounding, page 7.
2.
Check and tighten all fasteners, air connections, and
fluid connections before operating the equipment.
Replace worn or damaged parts as needed.
3.
Connect a flexible, conductive fluid supply line (G)
from the fluid to be pumped to the fluid inlet port (R).
4.
Connect the flexible, conductive fluid outlet line (L) to
the fluid outlet port (S) and route the line to the end
container.
5.
Close the fluid drain valve (J).
6.
Turn the air regulator (C) to the lowest air pressure
setting and open the bleed-type master air valve (B).
7.
If the fluid outlet line (L) has a dispensing device,
hold it open while continuing with the following step.
8.
To prime the pump, slowly increase air pressure with
the air regulator (C) until pump starts to cycle. Do not
exceed the maximum operating air pressure listed in
the Technical Specifications, page 32. Allow the
pump to cycle slowly until all air is pushed out of the
fluid lines and fluid exits the fluid outlet line (L).
Equipment Shutdown
At the end of each work shift, perform the Pressure
Relief Procedure, page 12.
Flush the equipment if necessary. See Flushing and
Storage, page 13.
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure
whenever you see this symbol.
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from
pressurized fluid, such as splashing fluid, follow the
Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop
dispensing and before cleaning, checking, or
servicing the equipment.
NOTICE
Firmly tighten all fasteners and connections to avoid
air or fluid leaks. To avoid equipment damage, do not
over-torque the fasteners on the equipment.
