EXCESSIVE AIR PRESSURE
STATIC SPARK
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
HAZARDOUS PRESSURE
WARNING
EXCESSIVE AIR PRESSURE. Can cause personal
injury, pump damage or property damage.
Do not exceed the maximum inlet air pressure as
stated on the pump model plate.
Be sure material hoses and other components are able
to withstand fluid pressures developed by this pump.
Check all hoses for damage or wear. Be certain dispens-
ing device is clean and in proper working condition.
WARNING
STATIC SPARK. Can cause explosion resulting in
severe injury or death. Ground pump and pumping system.
Sparks can ignite flammable material and vapors.
The pumping system and object being sprayed must
be grounded when it is pumping, flushing, recircula
ing or spraying flammable materials such as paints,
solvents, lacquers, etc. or used in a location where
surrounding atmosphere is conducive to spontaneous
combustion. Ground the dispensing valve or device,
containers, hoses and any object to which material is
being pumped.
Use the pump grounding screw terminal provided.
Use ARO part no. 66885-1 ground kit or connect a
suitable ground wire (12 ga. minimum) to a good
earth ground source.
Secure pump, connections and all contact points to
avoid vibration and generation of contact or static spark.
Consult local building codes and electrical codes for
specific grounding requirements.
Aftergrounding, periodically verify continuity of
electricalpath to ground. Test with an ohmmeter from
each component (e.g., hoses, pump, clamps, con-
tainer, spray gun, etc.) to ground to insure continuity.
Ohmmeter should show 0.1 ohms or less.
Submerse the outlet hose end, dispensing valve or
device in the material being dispensed if possible.
(Avoid free streaming of material being dispensed.)
Use hoses incorporating a static wire.
Use proper ventilation.
Keep inflammables away from heat, open flames and
sparks.
Keep containers closed when not in use
WARNING
Pump exhaust may contain contami-
nants. Can causesevere injury. Pipe exhaustaway-
fromworkareaandpersonnel.
In the event of a diaphragm rupture, material can be
forced out of the air exhaust muffler.
Pipe the exhaust to a safe remote location when
pumping hazardous or inflammable materials.
Use a grounded 3/8” minimum i.d. hose between the
pump and the muffler.
WARNING
HAZARDOUS PRESSURE. Can result in serious
injury or property damage. Do not service or clean pump,
hoses or dispensing valve while the system is pressurized.
Disconnect air supply line and relieve pressure from the
system by opening dispensing valve or device and / or
carefully and slowly loosening and removing outlet hose or
piping from pump.
WARNING
HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Cancauseserious
injury or property damage.Donot attempt to return
apumpto the factory or service center that contains
hazardous material. Safe handling practices must comply
with local and national laws and safety code requirements.
Obtain Material Safety Data Sheets on all materials
from the supplier for proper handling instructions.
Obtain Material Safety Data Sheets on all materials
from the supplier for proper handling instructions.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD. Models containing
a l u m i n u m w e t t e d p a r t s c a n n o t b e u s e d w i t h
1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride or other
halogenated hydrocarbon solvents which may react and
explode.
Check pump motor section, fluid caps, manifolds and
all wetted parts to assure compatibility before using
with solvents of this type.
CAUTION
Verify the chemical compatibility of the pump
wetted parts and the substance being pumped, flushed
or recirculated. Chemical compatibility may change with
temperature and concentration of the chemical(s) within
the substances being pumped, flushed or circulated.
For specific fluid compatibility, consult the chemical
manufacturer.
CAUTION
Maximum temperatures are based on
mechanical stress only. Certain chemicals will significantly
reduce maximum safe operating temperature. Consult
the chemical manufacturer for chemical compatibility and
temperature limits. Refer to PUMP DATA on page 1 of this
manual.
CAUTION
Be certain all operators of this equipment
have been trained for safe working practices, understand
it’s limitations, and wear safety goggles / equipment when
required.
CAUTION
Do not use the pump for the structural
support of the piping system. Be certain the system
components are properly supported to prevent stress on
the pump parts.
Suction and discharge connections should be flexible con-
nections (such as hose), not rigid piped, and should be com-
patible with the substance being pumped.
CAUTION
Prevent unnecessary damage to the pump.
Do not allow pump to operate when out of material for
long periods of time.
Disconnect air line from pump when system sits idle for
long periods of time.
CAUTION
Use only genuine ARO replacement parts to
assure compatible pressure rating and longest service life.
NOTICE
Replacement warning labels are available
upon request: “Static Spark” (93616-1) & “Diaphragm
Rupture” (93122).
