Description
The StediFlo 57:1 fluid pump is an air-operated, stainless steel pump
suitable for solvent-based and waterborne coatings. It is a double-acting
pump that delivers pressurized coatings on both the pressure and suction
strokes. Coatings are siphoned into the pump only on the suction stroke.
The pump can be used in both dead-end and circulating systems. In
dead-end systems, the pump stops when the pressure in the system equals
the pressure the pump can output given the input pressure. In circulating
systems, the pump strokes continuously to keep coating material moving
through the system at a rate set by the circulation valve.
Two sets of self-adjusting packings prevent coatings from leaking from the
pump during operation. The upper packings and plunger are lubricated by
solvent fluid in the solvent chamber. The lower packings are lubricated by
the coating material in the pump.
Filtered and lubricated compressed air operates the air motor and air value.
A safety relief valve in the air motor head prevents over-pressurization.
