Installation
Grounding (All Pumps)
The equipment must be grounded. Grounding reduces
the risk of static and electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electrical current due to static build
up or in the event of a short circuit.
Pump:
use the ground wire and clamp supplied.
Remove the ground screw (air-powered packages) or
loosen the grounding lug locknut and washer (hydrau-
lic-powered packages). Install the 1.5 mm
2
(12 ga) mini-
mum ground wire and tighten the screw or locknut
securely. Connect the clamp to a true earth ground.
Air and fluid hoses:
use only electrically conductive
hoses.
Air compressor:
follow manufacturer's recommenda-
tions.
Dispense valve:
ground through connection to a prop-
erly grounded fluid hose and pump.
Fluid supply container:
follow your local code.
Object being sprayed:
follow your local code.
Solvent pails used when flushing:
follow local code.
Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded
surface. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive sur-
face, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts
grounding continuity.
To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or
relieving pressure:
hold metal part of the dispense
valve firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then
trigger the valve.
Location
When selecting the location for the pump, keep the fol-
lowing in mind:
•
There must be sufficient space on all sides of the
pump for installation, operator access, repair, and
air circulation. See
, page 18.
•
Ensure that the floor stand (2) is level in all direc-
tions. If necessary, level the stand using metal
shims. Secure the stand to the floor using 1/2 in. (13
mm) anchors that are long enough to prevent the
pump from tipping. See
mounting hole layout.
