CEUTION
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
8.
1.
Be sure the mounting surface
can support the'
weight of the
pump,
hoses, and
accessories, as
well as the stress
caused during operation.
2.
For
all mountings, be sure the
pump
is bolted
directly to the mounting
surface.
3. 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.
4. Rubber Foot Mounting Kit
236452 is available to
reduce noise and vibration
during operation.
Air Line
lnstall the air line accessories
as shown in Figs.
24 on
pages
6 and 7. Mount these
accessories
on
the wall
or on a bracket. Be sure the air line
supplying the accessories
is
grounded.
a. lnstall 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.
''
Lbcate one bleed-type mlster 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.
c. The air line filter
(F)
removes harmful dirt and
.
moisture from the
compressed air supply.
2. lnstall
a
grounded,
flexible
air
hose
(A)
between
the accessories
and lhe 112 npt(f)
pump
air
inlet
(N).
See
Fig.5.
Use a minimum
3/8'(9.5
mm) lD
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. Do not
connect the coupler
(D)
to the fitting
until
you
are ready
to operate the
pump.
Fluid
Suction
Line
1.
Use
grounded
fluid
hoses. The
pump
fluid inlet
(R)
is 1" npt(f).
See Fig. 5. Screw the fluid fitting
into
the
pump
inlet
securely.
2. lf the fluid inlet
pressure
to the
pump
is more than
25o/o
of
lhe
outletworking
pressure,
the ballcheck
valves will not
close
fast
enough, resulting in
inefiicient
pu
mp operation.
3. At inlet fluid
pressures
greater
than 15
psi
(0.1
MPa, 1 bar),
diaphragm life will be
shortened.

4. See the Technical
Data on
page
29 for maximum
suction lift
(wet
and dry)
Fluid
Outlet
Line
1. Use
grounded
fluid
hoses
(L).
The
pump
fluid
outlet
(S)
is 1l npt(f).
See
Fig.
5. Screw the fluid
fitting into the
pump
outlet securely.

2. lnstall a fluid drbin
valve
(J)
near the fluid
outlet.
See
the
WARNING above, and Figs. 24
on
pages
6 and 7.
3. lnstalla shutoff valve
(K)
in the fluid outlet line
A bleed-type master air valve
(B)
is
required in
your
system to'relieve airtrapped
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 Fig.
3.

A
fluid drain valve,
(J)
is required to relieve
pres-
sure in the hose if it is
plugged.
The drain valve
l
reduces the risk
of serious injury including
splash-
ing in the eyes or
on
the
skin, or contamination
I
from hazardous
fluids when relieving
pressure.'ln=
stall the valve close to the
pump
fluid
outlet. See
