GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ARO diaphragm pump o ff ers high volume delivery even
at low air pressure and a broad range of material compat-
ibility options available. Refer to the model and option chart.
ARO pumps feature stall resistant design, modular air motor /
fl uid sections.
Air operated double diaphragm pumps utilize a pressure
di ff erential in the air chambers to alternately create suction
and positive fl uid pressure in the fl uid chambers, ball checks
ensure a positive fl ow of fl uid.
Pump cycling will begin as air pressure is applied and it 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 mi-
crons should be used on the air supply. There is no lubrica-
tion required other than the “O” ring lubricant which is ap-
plied during assembly or repair.
y
If lubricated air is present,make sure that it is compatible-
with the “O” rings and seals in the air motor section of the
pump.
INSTALLATION
y
Verify correct model / con fi guration prior to installation.
y
Retorque all external fasteners per speci fi cations prior to
start up.
y
Pumps are tested in water at assembly. Flush pump with
compatible fl uid prior to installation.
y
When the diaphragm pump is used in a forced-feed
( fl ooded inlet) situation, it is recommended that a “Check
Valve” be installed at the air inlet.
y
Material supply tubing should be at least the same diam-
eter as the pump inlet manifold connection.
y
Material supply hose must be reinforced, non-collapsible
type compatible with the material being pumped.
y
Piping must be adequately supported. Do not use the
pump to support the piping.
y
Use flexible connections (such as hose) at the suction
and discharge. These connections should not be rigid
piped and must be compatible with the material being
pumped.
y
Secure the diaphragm pump legs to a suitable surface
(level and fl at) to ensure against damage by vibration.
y
Pumps that need to be submersed must have both wet
and non-wet components compatible with the material
being pumped.
y
Submersed pumps must have exhaust pipe above liquid
level. Exhaust hose must be conductive and grounded.
y
Flooded suction inlet pressure must not exceed 10 psig
(0.69 bar).
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.
PARTS AND SERVICE KITS
Refer to the part views and descriptions as provided on page
5 through 8 for parts identi fi cation and Service Kit informa-
tion.
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.
MAINTENANCE
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 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 (61) outlet manifold and (60) inlet manifold.
2. Remove (22) balls, (19 and 33) “O” rings and (21) seats.
3. Remove (15) fl uid caps.
NOTE: Only PTFE diaphragm models use a primary dia-
phragm (7) and a backup diaphragm (8).
4. Remove the (6) diaphragm washer, (7) or (7 / 8) dia-
phragms, and (5) backup washer.
NOTE: Do not scratch or mar the surface of (1) diaphragm
rod.
FLUID SECTION REASSEMBLY
y
Reassemble in reverse order. Refer to the torque require-
ments on page 6.
y
Clean and inspect all parts. Replace worn or damaged
parts with new parts as required.
y
Lubricate (1) diaphragm rod and (144) “U” cup with
Lubriplate
£
FML-2 grease (94276 grease packet is includ-
ed in service kit).
y
For models with PTFE diaphragms: Item(8) Santoprene
diaphragm is installed with the side marked “AIR SIDE” to-
wards the pump center body. Install the PTFE diaphragm
(7) with the side marked “FLUID SIDE” towards the (15)
fl uid cap.
y
Check torque settings after pump has been re-started
and run a while.
