Installation
Grounding
Pump:
ground through electrically conductive pneu-
matic and fluid lines.
Pneumatic and fluid lines:
use only electrically con-
ductive lines.
Air compressor:
follow manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions.
Fluid supply container:
follow local code.
Required Accessories
Install the following required accessories in the order
shown in F
. 1, using adapters as necessary.
NOTE:
If you supply your own accessories, be sure they
are adequately sized and pressure rated for your sys-
tem.
Pneumatic Line
•
Bleed-type master pneumatic valve (C):
required
in your system to relieve air trapped between it and
the pneumatic motor when the valve is closed.
•
Be sure the valve is easily accessible from the
pump and located downstream from the pneu-
matic regulator.
•
Pump pneumatic regulator (D):
to control pump
speed and outlet pressure. Locate it close to the
pump.
•
Pneumatic line filter (B):
removes harmful dirt and
moisture from compressed air supply.
Fluid Line
•
Fluid filter/strainer (F):
with a 60 mesh (250
micron) stainless steel element to filter particles
from the fluid before it reaches the pump.
•
Supply fluid shutoff valve (N):
shuts off supply
fluid flow.
•
Shutoff/bleed valve (G):
shuts off pump fluid flow
to hydraulic system.
•
Fluid pressure relief valve (H):
use to release
pressure in outlet lines by redirecting fluid to the
fluid supply container.
Flush Before Using Equipment
The equipment was tested with lightweight oil, which is
left in the fluid passages to protect parts. To avoid con-
taminating your fluid with oil, flush the equipment with a
compatible solvent before using the equipment. See
, page 10.
To reduce the risk of injury from ejected ice, do not
operate the motor without a plumbed exhaust line or
muffler installed.
Installation must comply with all local codes and regu-
lations.
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk
of static sparking. Static sparking can cause fumes to
ignite or explode. Grounding provides an escape wire
for the electric current.
