GENERAL INFORMATION
This pump is only to be used for the purpose
of pumping air and under no circumstances
be used with any other gases. The pump
must not be used for the pumping of fluids,
particles, solids or any substance mixed
with air, particularly combustible substances
likely to cause explosions.
DANGER
Do not pump flammable or
explosive gases, or operate
the unit in an atmosphere
containing them without
appropriate motor and
electrical connection.
CAUTION
The exhaust air of this pump
can become very hot. Do
not direct exhaust air
towards property that is
temperature sensitive.
CAUTION
This pump is designed for air
only. Do not allow corrosive
gases or particulate material
to enter the pump. Water
vapor, oil-based contaminants,
or other liquids must be
filtered out.
Ambient temperature should not exceed
40°C (104°F). For operation at higher
temperatures, consult the factory.
Performance is reduced by lower
atmospheric pressure found at high
altitudes. Consult a Corken distributor
for details (see chart).
Never lubricate this oil-less air pump.
The sealed bearings are grease packed,
and the service life of the rings or vanes
will be reduced by petroleum or
hydrocarbon products.
INSTALLATION
WARNING
To avoid risk of
electrocution do not use
this product in an area
where it could come in
contact with water or other
liquids. If exposed to the
elements it must be
weather protected.
WARNING
Beware of any exposed
moveable parts. Proper
guards should be in place
to prevent personal injury
or death.
CAUTION
Do not block the flow of
cooling air over the pump in
any way.
CAUTION
Do not lift the unit by the fan
shroud, filters or mufflers.
MOUNTING
This pump may be installed in any
orientation as long as the flow of cool,
ambient air over the pump is not blocked.
To reduce noise and vibration, mount to a
stable, rigid operating surface. If mounted
outside, cover or shield from the elements.
PLUMBING
To prevent air flow restriction, use pipe
and fittings that are the same size or
larger than the threaded ports of the
pump. The ports are marked "IN" and
"OUT”. Be sure to remove port plugs
before operating unit.
ACCESSORIES
Intake and exhaust filters are external to
the pump and will provide adequate
filtration for most applications. Check
filters periodically and replace when
necessary. Consult a Corken
representative for additional filter
recommendations. Install relief valves
