Ratio
Pressure and Ratio Ratings for President Pumps
WARNING
To reduce the risk of over pressurizing a component, which can result in an explosion and serious injury, never
operate the system at a working pressure higher than the lowest rated component in the system. All fluid side
components such as dispensing valves, regulators, and hoses must have a working pressure equal to or greater
than the pressure given in Column B for each pump model.
Column A gives the maximum fluid pressure developed at 100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar) of incoming air pressure.
Column B gives the minimum working pressure required for all system components, based on the automatic
relief valve settings. Components included by Graco with the models listed meet or exceed this requirement.
These pumps are designed to be part of a Hydra-Cat
dispensing system that will proportion, mix, and
dispense two-component fluids. The typical installations shown below and on page 9 are only guidelines
to setting up a complete proportioning system. For
clarity, various components are shown in the correct
order but may not be shown in exactly the position of
the installed system. For assistance in designing your
system, contact your Graco distributor.

Installation
Bare Pumps
Bare pumps are available for those installations which
require a highly customized system. For a safe and
efficient system, Graco recommends that the air and
fluid components supplied with the Wall Mount and
Cart Mount models also be used in customized
systems. Refer to the Parts Drawings on pages 26–37
for part numbers. In addition, the accessories shown in
the Typical Installation drawings and discussed in the
following pages of this manual should be used.
Be sure all accessories are sized properly for the air
and fluid requirements of your system.
Read all instructions in the Installation section for
further details.
NOTES:
1. Models with three displacement pumps always use
the two outer displacement pumps to supply the
resin and the middle displacement pump to supply
the hardener.
1. These pumps always use the two outer displacement pumps to supply the resin and the middle
displacement pump to supply the hardener.
2. Label all pumps, hoses, fluid regulators, etc. to
indicate whether they are for the resin side or
hardener side of the system.
For a wall mount, be sure the bracket and wall are
strong enough to support the pump, accessories,
plumbing and stress caused by pump operation.
Locate the bracket about 5 ft (1.5 m) above the floor.
Ground the Pumps
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Before operating the pump, ground the
system as explained below. Also read
the section FIRE AND EXPLOSIONHAZARD on page 5.
1. Loosen the grounding lug locknut (BB) and washer
(AA).
2. Insert one end of a 14 ga (1.5 mm@) minimum
ground wire (G) into the slot in lug (CC) and tighten the locknut securely. See Fig. 3.
3. Connect the other end of the ground wire to a true
earth ground. Order part number 237569 Grounding Clamp and wire.

Mounting the Pump
Mount the pump to suit your installation. The bare
pump can be mounted on a wall bracket or on a cart.
See the Mounting Hole Layout on page 42. The President pump and accessories weigh approximately 65 lb
(30 kg). The pump stand and accessories weigh
approximately 55 lb (25 kg).

Installation
Air Control Accessories
Install the accessories in the order shown in Fig. 4.
Mount only the air regulator (E) and a master air valve
(A) at the pump. Mount all other accessories on separate wall brackets to reduce stress on the pump inlet.
Note that one air filter (B) can serve multiple pumps by
using an air manifold downstream from the air filter.
WARNING
Bleed-type master air valves (A) are required in the
system in the positions shown in the Typical Installation drawings. These valves are used during
system pressure relief to relieve air trapped in the
air line. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle
unexpectedly and result in serious injury from
moving parts, fluid injection, or fluid splashing.
1. Install a bleed-type master air valve (A) in the
pump air inlet.
2. Install an air regulator and gauge (E) to control
pump outlet pressure.
Automatic Pressure Relief Valves
WARNING
To reduce the risk of component rupture, which
could cause serious injury and property damage,
the appropriate automatic pressure relief valve is
required for each fluid on a plural component
pump.
These valves automatically relieve fluid pressure if
the pump output pressure exceeds the valve’s
preset pressure. Over pressurization may occur if
there is a fluid line clog upstream from the valve or
if any other condition exists that causes one of the
pumps to cavitate and direct all fluid pressure to
the other pump(s).
See the List of Models on page 6 to determine
the preset pressure in your system.
Two drainage bottle kits (38) are included with wall
models (unassembled) and stand mount models
(assembled) to catch the drainage if the automatic
pressure relief valves open.
3. Install a pump runaway valve (D) for each feed
pump to automatically shut off the air to the pump
if the pump accelerates beyond the pre-adjusted
setting. A pump which runs too fast can be seriously damaged.
4. Install an air line lubricator (C) for automatic air
motor lubrication.
5. Install an air filter (B) to remove harmful dirt and
moisture from the compressed air supply.

For the wall mount models, assemble the kit as shown
in Fig. 5 and mount it securely to a wall or bracket.
Use the tie wrap, supplied, to hold the hoses out of the
way, if necessary.
WARNING
Fluid emitted from the automatic pressure drain
valves may be at pressures over 3000 psi (21
MPa, 210 bar). Make sure the drain bottles are
securely fastened to the frame or wall so that they
can handle a sudden spurt of pressurized fluid.
