Installation

Installation Guidelines

Reference letters found in the following instructions,
refer to Typical Installation diagram provided on page 7.

• A ball valve must be installed upstream of the regu­lator (G).

• The fluid outlet line (A), fluid inlet line (L) and air
inlet line (M) must be flexible (such as a hose).

NOTE: To prevent damage to the pump, remove sedi­ment from the bottom of the container before installing a
pump on an existing container.

The maximum working pressure of each pump in
your system may not be the same. To reduce the risk
of over-pressurizing any part of your system, which
may result in component rupture, fire or explosion
and cause serious bodily injury, be sure you know
the maximum working pressure rating of each pump
and its connected components.

• Never exceed the maximum working pressure of

the lowest rated component connected to a partic­ular pump.

• Be sure you know the maximum working pressure
of each component.

Pump Mounting

1. Install bung adapter (K) into bung mount/bracket/or
drum cover.

2. Install pump (B) into bung adapter (K).

IG. 3)

1. Connect the swivel adapter (aa) to the pump fluid
outlet. Tighten securely and torque as recom­mended below:

• For NPT models: 1 to 1-1/2 turns past hand

tight.

• For BSPT models: 1-1/2 to 2 turns past hand

tight.

• Do not exceed the maximum pump cycle rate.

2. Connect the fluid hose (A) to the swivel adapter
(aa).

• Regulate air pressure to prevent over pressuriza­tion at fluid section of the pump.

3. Connect a suitable dispensing valve or extra hose to
the 6-ft hose.

• Regulate air pressure to the pump so that no fluid
line component or accessory is over pressurized.

Stationary Mounting Layout

Plan the layout for easy operator access to the pump air
controls, sufficient room to change drums and a secure
platform.

8 3A1334E

Air Line and Accessories

NOTE: Install the air line accessories in the order shown
in the Typical Installation on page 7.

NOTICE

Do not hang the air accessories directly on the air
inlet. Mount them on brackets. Always use a flexible
hose between all connections. The air inlet is not
strong enough to support accessories and may cause
one or more to break.

• Use thread sealant on all male threads except

swivel connections.

• Install a pump runaway valve (D) to shut off the air
to the pump if the pump accelerates beyond the
pre-adjusted setting. A pump that runs too fast can
be seriously damaged.

• Install the air regulator (G) to control pump speed
and pressure.

Installation

For NPT models order Graco Part No. 24H420 or for
BSP models order Graco Part No. 24H419.

• Install a bleed-type master air valve (F) upstream
from the pump air regulator (G) but within easy
reach of the pump.

For NPT models order Graco Part No. 110223 or for
BSP models order Graco Part No. 125272.

• On the main air supply line from the compressor,
install an air line filter (H) to remove harmful dirt and
contaminants from the compressor air supply.

Follow Plate - Grease Models Only

For grease models only a follow plate is required for
pumping fluid from the drum. See page 12 for follow
plate installation instructions.

Operation

Operation

Thermal Induced Pressure Relief (Oil pumps only)

THERMAL EXPANSION HAZARD

Fluids subjected to heat in confined spaces, including
hoses, can create a rise in pressure due to the
thermal expansion. Over-pressurization can result in
equipment rupture and serious injury.

Oil pumps have a built-in, thermal induced, pressure
relief as shown in F
will automatically bleed excess thermal induced
system pressure through the pump and back to the
oil reservoir:

• Always use a relieving air pressure regulator to
allow the pump/motor to run backwards. The regu­lator bleeds excess air pressure.

• There should not be any obstructions between air
inlet of pump and regulator.

• There should not be any obstructions between the
downstream plumbing and pump outlet such as
closed ball valves or check valves.

• There should not be any obstructions between the
pump inlet and fluid container such as closed ball
valves or check valves.

• Only use Graco designed suction tubes for in-drum
or in-tank applications.

• Only use Graco designed suction tubes with a
built-in relief device for wall mount applications.

• Always use an inlet screen to prevent debris from
plugging relief passages from entering the pump.

- Do not operate the pump with out an inlet screen.

FIG. 4 a = Pump cylinder relief passage

b = Inlet check relief passage

Thermal Relief Theory of Operation

The pump operation is similar to most double acting
reciprocating pumps. The pump only comes to a com­plete stop on the up stroke. The pump will stroke
through on the down stroke due to the inlet check relief
passage.

Excess pressure due to downstream thermal expansion
causes the air motor/pump to run backwards (down­ward). Fluid pressure is relieved through the inlet check
relief passage as the pump piston moves downward. Air
pressure is simultaneously relieved through the air inlet
passage. The pump piston moves downward exposing
the pump cylinder relief passage at the bottom of the
stroke. Additional excess pressure is then relieved
through both the inlet check relief passage and the
pump cylinder relief passage.

Pressure is relieved at the pump through the pump inlet
relief passage. The pump will not change over on the
bottom of the stroke as a result of relieving excess pres­sure due to the positioning of the pump cylinder groove
with respect to the air motor pilot valve.

• Periodically inspect the inlet screen for plugging.
Graco recommends inspecting the inlet screen
every time the container is changed out.

10 3A1334E

NOTE:

• The air supply does not have to be turned off to
enable thermal relief activation.

• The Thermal Induced Pressure Relief design fea­ture of the pump will cause the pump to dive on the
downstroke when a dispensing valve is closed.
