Installation
Mounting the Pump
Mount the pump to suit the type of installation planned.
The pump dimensions and mounting hole layout are
shown on page 16.
System Accessories
Refer to the Installation drawing and the information on
the following pages for assistance setting up your
system.
NOTE:
To ensure maximum pump performance, be
sure that any accessory used is properly sized to meet
your system’s requirements.
Your system should include an air line filter (J) to
remove harmful dirt and moisture from your com-
pressed air supply. On the air line (E), each pump
should have a bleed–type master air valve (G), an air
regulator (F) and shutoff valve (O), and an air line oiler
(K) which must be installed downstream from the air
regulator. See Fig. 2.
WARNING
Two accessories, the bleed–type master air valve
(G), and the fluid drain valve (R), are required for
your system to reduce the risk of serious bodily
injury from moving parts or injection when shutting
off the pump.
The bleed–type air valve relieves trapped air
between the valve and the pump, after the pump is
shut off. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle
unexpectedly and result in serious bodily injury if
you are adjusting or repairing the pump.
The fluid drain valve helps relieve fluid pressure in
the displacement pump, hose, and gun/dispensing
valve when shutting off the pump. Triggering the
gun/dispensing valve to relieve pressure may not
be sufficient, especially if there is a clog in the
hose, gun/dispensing valve, and/or tip/nozzle.
Connecting the Hoses
Connect a grounded air supply hose (E) to the 1/2
npt(f) air inlet or the air regulator. Connect a grounded
fluid dispensing hose (L) to the 1 in. npt fluid outlet,
using a suitable adapter. For more flexible gun move-
ment, use a shorter whip hose (grounded) (M) be-
tween the main fluid hose and the gun/valve.
