Installation, Assembly & Maintenance Instructions
PFS Installation
Installation
1. Remove the drum pump and motor from its packaging
and inspect for shipping damage.
2. Spin the pump coupling to verify there is no binding. Verify
that the black rubber coupling insert is firmly seated in the metal
pump coupling.
3. Verify that the housing cover (item 16) is on tight (it has left
hand threads).
4. Remove the (2) socket head screws and nuts from the motor/
motor mount.
5. Position the pump and motor couplings for proper alignment.
6. Slide the pump tube and motor together until the couplings
mate and are completely seated.
7. Install the (2) socket head screws and nuts and tighten securely.
8. Connect Static protection kit per diagram located below.
NOTE: When pumping flammable or combustible materials, DO NOT operate pump unless the static protection
kit is properly connected; otherwise, the pump/motor will not comply with ATEX requirements.
Static Protection Kit Assembly
Hose attachment to pump:
1. Place the stainless steel hose clamp onto the short section of the grounded hose.
2. Slide the short section of the grounded hose assembly over the pump tubes discharge spout. Tighten the
clamp.
3. Attach the ground wire assembly to the pump tube using the #8 ring terminal and supplied 8-32 x 1/4” brass
screw and brass lock washer.
4. Attach the ground wire assembly to the motor (see instructions below).
5. Check electrical continuity between the clamp on the end of the ground wire assembly and the end of the
grounded hose. The electrical resistance must be one (1) Ohm or less. If it is greater than one (1) Ohm, re-
check all connections.
