Installation (All Pumps)

Typical Installation

The Typical Installations shown in Figs. 2 and 3, and

the following installation information are only guides.

Proper sizing of the pump, accessories and lines is

essential to get the maximum performance from your

system. Contact your Graco distributor for assistance

in designing a system to meet your needs.

Mount the Pump

This pump can be mounted on a floor stand, cart, wall

bracket, or drum. The floor stand shown in the Typical

Installation is Part. No. 220–581.

Instructions for mounting the pump are supplied with

the mounting accessory.

Plumbing

The pump has a 1–1/2 in. npt(f) fluid inlet and a 1 in.

npt(f) fluid outlet. Use a minimum 25 mm (1 in.) diame-

ter pipe or hose between the pump outlet and any

supply line accessories. Use a minimum 38 mm (1–1/2

in.) diameter pipe or hose between the mix tanks and

pump inlet.

When using a stainless steel pump, use stainless steel

plumbing to maintain a corrosion-resistant system.

placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the

pail on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or

cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continu-

To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or

relieving pressure, hold a metal part of the spray

gun firmly to the side of a grounded

metal pail,

then trigger the gun.
