AIR AND LUBE REQUIREMENTS

WARNING

EXCESSIVE AIR PRESSURE. Can cause pump

and property damage. The air supply must be limited to 50

p.s.i.g. (3.4 bar) maximum inlet air pressure.

S

The air supply line or hose to the pump should be adequately sized

to carry a sufficient volume of air to the pump. The material inlet supĆ

ply tubing should not be too small or restrictive which will inhibit maĆ

terial flow. The outlet material volume is governed not only by the air

supply but also by the material volume available at the inlet.

S

Air supply provided should be filtered to provide clean dry air. A filter

capable of filtering out particles larger than 50 microns should be

used on the air supply. There is no lubrication required other than the

O" ring lubricant which is applied during assembly or repair.

S

If lubricated air is present, make sure that it is compatible with the

Nitrile O" rings in the air motor section of the pump.

INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT

S

Requirements for the installation are included in the Flammable and

Combustible Liquids Code, NFPA No. 30, Automotive and Marine

Service Station Code, NFPA No. 30A and the National Electric

Code, ANSI / NFPA No. 70.

S

A fluid return hose which is compatible with the fluid being pumped

must be installed to the relief valve on the outlet manifold to return

fluid back to the supply tank or pump inlet.

S

The pump must be grounded to prevent static discharge. Grounding

may be accomplished through the legs or to the ground lug provided

on the pump.

S

Notice that the material inlet / outlet manifolds may be removed and

rotated 180_ to facilitate various mounting applications.

S

If the body of the pump must be rotated, remove the end covers and

manifolds and index it so the bolts line up properly. NOTE: The arrow

on the end caps must always point upward for optimum perforĆ

mance.

S

When the diaphragm pump is used in a forceĆfeed situation, it is recĆ

ommended that a check valve be installed at the air inlet to keep maĆ

terial out of air line in the event of diaphragm failure.

S

Secure diaphragm pump legs to a suitable surface to insure against

damage by excessive vibration.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

S

The pump should never be operated at pressures exceeding 50

p.s.i.g. (345 kPa) inlet air pressure. This pump is equipped with a

pressure relief valve on the material outlet manifold which will open

at 40 +/Ć4 p.s.i. (2.76 bar) to relieve pressure increases in the outlet

hoses / plumbing caused by thermal expansion or other external

forces.

S

Disconnect the air supply from the pump if it is to be inactive for a few

hours.

MAINTENANCE

Refer to the part views and descriptions as provided on page 4 through 7

for parts identification and Service Kit information.

S

Certain ARO Smart Parts" are indicated which should be available

for fast repair and reduction of down time.

S

Service kits are divided to service two separate diaphragm pump

functions: 1. AIR SECTION, 2. FLUID SECTION. The FLUID SECĆ

TION is divided further to match typical part MATERIAL OPTIONS.

S

Provide a clean work surface to protect sensitive internal moving

parts from contamination from dirt and foreign matter during service

disassembly and reassembly.

S

Keep good records of service activity and include pump in prevenĆ

tive maintenance program.

S

Before disassembling, empty captured material in the outlet manĆ

ifold by turning the pump upside down to drain material from the

pump.
