General Information
•FA pumps have painted aluminum center sections
that may exhibit signs of corrosion depending on
cleaning solutions used.
•The typical installations shown in Figs. 2-4 are only
guides for selecting and installing system components. Contact your Graco distributor for assistance
in planning a system to suit your needs.
•Always use genuine Graco parts and accessories.
•Reference numbers and letters in parentheses refer
to the callouts in the figures and the parts lists on
pages 28-30, 36-38, and 44-46.
The pump is very heavy (see Technical Data on pages
32, 40, and 51 for specific weights). If the pump must
be moved, follow the pressure relief procedure on
page 12 and have two people to lift the pump by grasping the outlet manifold securely or use appropriate lifting equipment.
Grounding
The equipment must be grounded. Grounding reduces
the risk of static and electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electrical current due to static build
up or in the event of a short circuit.
•Pump: Connect a ground wire and clamp as shown
in Fig. 1. Loosen the grounding screw (W). Insert
one end of a 12 ga (1.5 mm²) minimum ground wire
(Y) behind the grounding screw and tighten the
screw securely. Connect the clamp end of the
ground wire to a true earth ground. Order Part No.
238909 Ground Wire and Clamp.
F
To reduce the risk of serious injury due to burns, insulate and/or label the pump before pumping hot fluids.
IG. 1
•Fluid hoses: Use only grounded hoses with a maximum of 500 ft. (150 m) combined hose length to
ensure grounding continuity.
Tightening Clamps Before First Use
After you unpack the pump, and before you use it for the

first time, check all clamps and tighten as necessary.
•All solvent pails used when flushing: Follow the local
code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive.
Do not place the pail on a non-conductive surface,
such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts the
grounding continuity.
311879Y7
•Fluid supply container: Follow the local code.
Installation
Mountings
NOTICE
The pump exhaust air may contain contaminants. Ventilate to a remote area if the contaminants could affect
your fluid supply. See Air Exhaust Ventilation on page
11.
•Be sure the mounting surface can support the
weight of the pump, hoses, and accessories, as well
as the stress caused during operation.
•For all mountings, be sure the pump is bolted
directly to the mounting surface.
•For ease of operation and service, mount the pump
so the air valve cover (2), air inlet, and fluid inlet and
outlet ports are easily accessible.
In the step below, do not connect the quick-disconnect
coupler (D) on the air hose to the mating fitting on the
pump until you are ready to operate the pump. Connecting the coupler too early can result in unintentional
operation of the pump, leading to serious injury from
moving parts, splashing fluid in the eyes or on the skin,
and contact with hazardous fluids.
2. Install a grounded, flexible air hose (A) between the
accessories and the 1/2 npt(f) pump air inlet (N).
See Fig. 5. Use a minimum 3/8 in. (9.5 mm) ID air
hose. Screw an air line quick disconnect coupler (D)
onto the end of the air hose (A), and screw the mating fitting into the pump air inlet snugly.
Air Line
A bleed-type master air valve (B) is required in the system to relieve air trapped between this valve and the
pump. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury, including
splashing in the eyes or on the skin, injury from moving
parts, or contamination from hazardous fluids. See
F
IG. 2.
1. Install the air line accessories as shown in FIG. 2.
Mount these accessories on the wall or on a
bracket. Be sure the air line supplying the accessories is grounded.
a. Install an air regulator (C) and gauge to control
the fluid pressure. The fluid outlet pressure will
be the same as the setting of the air regulator.
b. Locate one bleed-type master air valve (B)
close to the pump and use it to relieve trapped
air. See the WARNING above. Locate the other
master air valve (E) upstream from all air line
accessories and use it to isolate them during
cleaning and repair.
Fluid Suction Line
1. Use flexible, grounded fluid hoses.
2. For best sealing results, use a standard tri-clamp or
DIN style sanitary gasket of a flexible material such
as EPDM, Buna-N, fluoroelastomer, or silicon.
3. If the fluid inlet pressure to the pump is more than
25% of the outlet working pressure, the ball check
valves will not close fast enough, resulting in inefficient pump operation.
4. At inlet fluid pressures greater than 15 psi (0.1 MPa,
1 bar), diaphragm life will be shortened.
5. See the Technical Data on pages 32, 40, and 51 for
maximum suction lift (wet and dry).
c. The air line filter (F) removes harmful dirt and
moisture from the compressed air supply.

Be sure the system is properly ventilated for your type
of installation. When pumping flammable or hazardous
fluids, you must vent the exhaust to a safe place, away
from people, animals, food handling areas, and all
sources of ignition.
Diaphragm failure will cause the fluid being pumped to
exhaust with the air. Place an appropriate container at
the end of the air exhaust line to catch the fluid. See
F
IG. 4.
The air exhaust port is 3/4 npt(f). Do not restrict the air
exhaust port. Excessive exhaust restriction can cause
erratic pump operation.
Installation
To provide a remote exhaust:
1. Remove the muffler (P) from the pump air exhaust
port.
2. Install a grounded air exhaust hose (T) and connect
the muffler (P) to the other end of the hose. The
minimum size for the air exhaust hose is 3/4 in. (19
mm) ID. If a hose longer than 15 ft (4.57 m) is
required, use a larger diameter hose. Avoid sharp
bends or kinks in the hose.
3. Place a container (U) at the end of the air exhaust
line to catch fluid in case a diaphragm ruptures. See

Operation
Operation
Pressure Relief Procedure
The equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To reduce the risk of serious injury
from pressurized fluid or splashing fluid, follow this
procedure whenever you stop pumping and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment.
1. Shut off the air to the pump.
2. Open the dispensing valve, if used.
3. Open the fluid drain valve to relieve fluid pressure,
having a container ready to catch the drainage.
Sanitize the Pump Before First Use
It is the user’s responsibility to properly sanitize the
pump before first use. It is up to the user whether this
will include disassembling and cleaning individual parts
or simply flushing pump with a sanitizing solution. As
necessary, follow the steps under Starting and Adjust-ing the Pump below, under the Service section on
page 16, or under Flushing on page 13.
Starting and Adjusting the Pump
1. Be sure the pump is properly grounded. Refer to
Grounding on page 4.
2. Check connections to be sure they are tight. Tighten
fluid inlet and outlet connections securely.
3. Place the suction tube (if used) in fluid to be
pumped.
NOTE: If fluid inlet pressure to the pump is more than
25% of outlet working pressure, the ball check valves
will not close fast enough, resulting in inefficient pump
operation.
4. Place the end of fluid hose (L) into an appropriate
container.
5. Close the fluid drain valve (J).
6. Back out the air regulator (C) knob, and open all
bleed-type master air valves (B, E).
7. If the fluid hose has a dispensing device, hold it
open while continuing with the following step.
8. Slowly increase air pressure with the air regulator
(C) until the pump starts to cycle. Allow the pump to
cycle slowly until all air is pushed out of the lines
and the pump is primed.
Never move or lift a pump under pressure. If dropped,
Pump Shutdown
the fluid section may rupture. Always follow the Pressure Relief Procedure before lifting the pump.
At the end of the work shift, relieve pressure.
12311879Y
Maintenance
Maintenance
Lubrication
The air valve is designed to operate unlubricated, however if lubrication is desired, every 500 hours of operation (or monthly) remove the hose from the pump air
inlet and add two drops of machine oil to the air inlet.
NOTICE
Do not over-lubricate the pump. Oil is exhausted
through the muffler and could contaminate your fluid
supply or other equipment. Excessive lubrication can
also cause the pump to malfunction.
Flushing
Insert suction tube into cleaning solution. Open air regulator to supply low pressure air to the pump. Run the
pump long enough to thoroughly clean the pump and
hoses. Close the air regulator. Remove the suction tube
from the cleaning solution and drain pump. Place suction tube in the fluid to be pumped.
Tightening Connections
Before each use, check all hoses for wear or damage,
and replace as necessary. Check to be sure all connections are tight and leak-free.
Preventive Maintenance Schedule
Establish a preventive maintenance schedule, based on
the pump’s service history. This is especially important
for prevention of spills or leakage due to diaphragm failure.
Flush the pump often enough to prevent the fluid you
are pumping from drying or freezing in the pump and
damaging it. Flushing schedule will be based on what
the pump is being used for. Use a compatible cleaning
solution and always cycle the pump during the entire
flushing process.
Always flush the pump and relieve the pressure before
storing it for any length of time.
