Standard Pump Operating Instructions and Parts Manual (OIPMS0611)
Do not use these pumps for the transfer of
flammable or combustible products or in an
environment where flammable or combustible fumes are
present unless used in conjunction with an Explosion Proof
Motor, SP-A1FP or SPA2 Series air motor. Please contact the
factory or authorized distributor with any questions regarding
this matter (see page 24).
General Operation Guide (SP-8100 & SP-8200)
1. Use closed top drum or other cover to prevent possible
contamination .
2. Once the pump is fully cleaned, assembled and all
connections are securely fastened, insert the pump into the
drum or tank .
3. It is recommended to attach a suitable hose or pipe to the
pump discharge.
4. If you opt to use a hose, fasten the hose to the hose
barb with a suitable hose clamp that exceeds the pump
discharge pressure.
Make sure the hose meets the pump
discharge pressure requirements (SP-8100
= 16 psi (1,1 bar)) / (SP-8200 = 32 psi (2,2 bar). It is
recommended to use a hose that is rated 4 x the pump
discharge pressure.
Ex: 32 x 4 = 128 psi (9 bar).
5. Turn the motor to the “ON” position.
6. After use, clean the pump and store vertically.
Disassembly / Cleaning Procedures
(SP-8100 & SP-8200)
1. In order to clean a majority of the residue from the pump
tube, immerse the pump into a 55 Gallon Drum of water
or a non-flammable, food safe cleaning agent. Allow the
pump to circulate the water for 3 minutes.
2. For a more thorough cleaning remove the motor from the
pump tube by looseni
ng the connection nut (P/N: 8842)
(see Figure 2) .
3. Remove the pump foot (P/N: 8108 or 8108HH) by turning
clockwise (see Figure 2) .
4. While holding the drive shaft (P/N: 2028 or 2029) with
pliers (Factory suggests grip-locks to avoid scarring shafts)
remove the impeller (P/N: 2706 or 4608HH) (see Figure 3).
