Prepare the Site
Select a site with at least 9 ft (2.8 m) overhead clear-
ance for the elevator when fully raised.
Ensure that the wall is strong enough to support the
weight of the pump and accessories, heater, fluid,
hoses, and stress caused during pump operation.
Ensure that you have an adequate compressed air
supply. Refer to the performance chart on page 25 to
find the air consumption.
Refer to Fig. 1 on page 7. Bring a compressed air
supply line (A) from the air compressor to the pump
location. Be sure all air hoses are properly sized and
pressure-rated for your system. Use only electrically
conductive hoses. The air hose should have a 3/8
npt(m) thread.
Install a bleed-type shutoff valve (B) in the air line to
isolate the air line components for servicing. Install a
moisture trap and drain valve (C) to help remove
moisture and contaminants from the compressed air
supply.
Keep the site clear of any obstacles or debris that
could interfere with the operator’s movement.
Have a grounded, metal pail available for use when
flushing the system.
