GENERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
NOTE: THOROUGHLY READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS
MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING, OPERATING OR
SERVICING THIS EQUIPMENT.
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE:
Follow this procedure whenever you
shut off the pump, when checking or servicing any part
of the system and when installing, cleaning or changing
any part of the system.
1 ) Disconnect the air to the pump.
2) Point dispensing valve away from
yourself and others.
3) Open dispensing valve until
pressure is relieved.
WARNING

WARNING
!
DANGER: Not for use with fluids
that have a flash point below 100°F
(38°C). Examples: gasoline, alcohol.
Sparking could result in an explosion which could result
in death.
WARNING
!
THIS
PUMP
CONTAINS
ALUMINUM
AND
ZINC
PARTS.
DO
NOT use 1-1-1 Trichloroethane, methylene chloride
or other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or fluids
containing such solvents in this pump. Use of these
solvents/fluids may result in a violent chemical reaction,
causing serious bodily injury, property damage or
death. All fluids used in this pump must be chemically
compatible with the wetted parts materials shown on
page three (3) of this manual. Consult your chemical
supplier to ensure compatibility.
Because this pump can be
incorporated into pressurized
systems, the following safety
precautions should be observed.
Check equipment regularly and repair or replace worn
and damaged parts.
Never alter or modify any parts of this pump, doing so
may cause damage to pump and/or personal injury.
Under no circumstances should the dispensing valve
be aimed at any person at any time. Personal injury
may result.
Release pressures built up in the system before any
service or repair is begun. See the pressure relief
procedure below.
Do not operate this pump above 150 PSI (10.3 BAR) air
inlet pressure or 300 cycles per minute.
Always read and follow the fluid manufacturer’s
recommendations regarding the use of protective
eyewear, clothing and respirators.
IMPORTANT
!
WARNING
!
Pump develops 195 PSI
(13.3 BAR) maximum working
pressure at 150 PSI (10.3 BAR)
maximum inlet air pressure. Be sure that any components
or accessories used in the system are rated to withstand
this pressure. To determine fluid outlet pressure, multiply
the ratio of the pump by the air pressure being used.
EX: 1.3 (1.3:1 ratio) x 100 PSI = 130 PSI
fluid pressure.
1.3 (1.3:1 ratio) x 6.8 BAR = 8.84 BAR
fluid pressure.
In the presence of explosive vapors, take
action to prevent static sparking. Failure to ground the
pump, piping, valves, containers, or other miscellaneous
equipment can result in fire or explosion. A green
grounding lug is provided on the pump.
WARNING
!
If a check valve is installed at the end of the suction tube,
then an external pressure relief valve must be installed
at the outlet of the pump.
