MAINTENANCE
Refer to the part views and descriptions as provided on pag-
es 5 through 8 for parts identification and Service Kit infor-
mation.
y
Certain ARO “Smart Parts” are indicated which should be
available for fast repair and reduction of down time.
y
Service kits are divided to service two separate dia-
phragm pump functions: 1. AIR SECTION, 2. FLUID SEC-
TION. The Fluid Section is divided further to match typical
part Material Options.
y
Provide a clean work surface to protect sensitive internal
moving parts from contamination from dirt and foreign
matter during service disassembly and reassembly.
y
Keep good records of service activity and include the
pump in preventive maintenance program.
y
Before disassembling empty captured material in the
outlet manifold by turning the pump upside down to
drain material from the pump.
FLUID SECTION DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove top manifold(s).
2. Remove (22) balls, (19) “O” rings (where applicable) and
(21) seats.
3. Remove (15) fluid caps.
NOTE:
Only PTFE diaphragm models use a primary (7) dia-
phragm and a backup (8) diaphragm. Refer to the auxiliary
view in figure 2.
4. Remove the (6) diaphragm washer, (7) or (7/8) diaphragm,
(5) backup washer and (196) cushion.
NOTE:
Do not scratch or mar the surface of (1) diaphragm
rod.
FLUID SECTION REASSEMBLY
SERVICE NOTE:
ARO PN 204214-T Diaphragm assembly tool
is recommended for use when reassembling the pump.
y
Reassemble in reverse order.
y
Clean and inspect all parts. Replace worn or damaged
parts with new parts as required.
y
Lubricate (1) diaphragm rod and (144) “U” cups with Lu-
briplate® FML-2 grease (94276 grease packet is included
in service kit).
y
Be certain the diaphragm assembly bottoms out on the
(1) rod, back off PTFE diaphragm assembly far enough to
align holes.
y
For models with PTFE diaphragms: Item (8) Santoprene
diaphragm is installed with the side marked “AIR SIDE”
towards the pump center body. Install the (7) PTFE dia-
phragm with the side marked “FLUID SIDE” towards the
fluid cap.
y
Re-check torque settings after the pump has been
re-started and run a while.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ARO diaphragm pump offers high volume delivery even
at low air pressure and a broad range of material compatibili-
ty options are available. Refer to the model and option chart.
ARO pumps feature stall resistant design, modular air motor
/ fluid sections.
Air operated double diaphragm pumps utilize a pressure dif-
ferential in the air chambers to alternately create suction and
a positive fluid pressure in the fluid chambers, valve checks
ensure a positive flow of fluid.
Pump cycling will begin as air pressure is applied and will
continue to pump and keep up with the demand. It will build
and maintain line pressure and will stop cycling once maxi-
mum line pressure is reached (dispensing device closed) and
will resume pumping as needed.
AIR AND LUBE REQUIREMENTS
WARNING
EXCESSIVE AIR PRESSURE. Can cause pump
damage, personal injury or property damage.
y
A filter capable of filtering out particles larger than 50
microns should be used on the air supply. There is no lu-
brication required other than the “O” ring lubricant which
is applied during assembly or repair.
y
If lubricated air is present, make sure that it is compatible
with the Nitrile “O” rings in the air motor section of the
pump.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
y
Always flush the pump with a solvent compatible with
the material being pumped if the material being pumped
is subject to “setting up” when not in use for a period of
time.
y
Disconnect the air supply from the pump if it is to be in-
active for a few hours.
y
The outlet material volume is governed not only by the
air supply, but also by the material supply available at the
inlet. The material supply tubing should not be too small
or restrictive. Be sure not to use hose which might col-
lapse.
y
When the diaphr agm pump is used in a forced-feed
(flooded inlet) situation, it is recommended that a “Check
Valve” be installed at the air inlet.
y
Secure the diaphragm pump legs to a suitable surface to
ensure against damage by vibration.
