Pumptec Operating Instructions and Parts Manual 12V ELECTRIC SPRAYER
positive displacement pumps providing a specific amount of
fluid constantly while operating. This volume of fluid must
be directed out thru a nozzle or back to a tank because it
cannot be stopped completely without creating excessively
high pressure and risk of damage to pump, components,
property and person. It is recommended a safety device such
as a regulating valve be installed directly on pump head as
protection in case of a failure of another component. Pressure
switches can be used to automate pump operation, but they
must have a pressure regulating device installed as a safety
device.
Fluid can enter a pump either from a filtered tank or
pressurized fluid line.
It is common to use a tank with pumps that are mounted above
the pump. Filtration is important to maintain proper function
of the pump and system. The extent of filtration may be greater
based upon some uses such as misting with ultra-fine nozzles.
