DESCRIPTION
TING OR SER
OPERATION
The AROĆSTOP control valve senses an increased volume of air to the
pump, beyond the preadjusted setting, and shuts off the air supply to
the pump. The runaway" condition may be caused by any of the followĆ
ing: 1.) depleted pumping material, 2.) a ruptured line on the outlet of
the pump, 3.) excessive cavitation in the material supply.
INSTALLATION
The AROĆSTOP valve should be installed in a filtered and regulated air
line as close to the inlet of the pump as possible. Equipment other than
a lubricator should not be installed between the AROĆSTOP valve and
the inlet of the pump. Upstream plumbing from the AROĆSTOP valve
should be 1/2" minimum. A swivelor 1/2" connector & coupler shouldbe
installed before the AROĆSTOP valve to facilitate easy adjustment.
Use one AROĆSTOP valve for each pump. See typical installation phoĆ
to.

ADJUSTMENT
THE AROĆSTOP VALVE MUST BE PROPERLY ADJUSTED AND
TESTED. THE INSTALLATION SHOULD BE TESTED REGULARLY
AND ADJUSTED WHEN A CHANGE IN OPERATING CONDITIONS
OCCURS.
1. Turn A" sleeve clockwise to the maximum inward position. See arĆ
row on sleeve of AROĆSTOP valve.
2. Supply AROĆSTOP valve with desired inlet operating pressure.
3. Depress C" reset button on the AROĆSTOP valve to start the
pump. Open the pump outlet to the desired flow condition.
4. Turn A" sleeve counterclockwise slowly until the pump stops.
5. Turn A" sleeve clockwise one turn and tighten B" locking nut
against body.
6. To restart pump, depress the C" reset button and hold it in for
approx. 3 seconds or until pump primes. If the pump does not reset

and run, repeat step (5). If pump operates, continue on th TestSecĆ
tion.
TEST:
7. To test installation, with the pump operating, remove the pump (or
siphon tube) from the material supply. If the pump shuts off, the unit
is set properly.
8. If the pump continues to turn, resubmerge the pump (or siphon
tube) in the material supply.Loosen the B" locking nut and turn the
A" sleeve counterclockwise approx. one half turn, tighten B" lockĆ
ing nut, and repeat step (7).
RESTART:
9. To restart: Remedy the cause of the shutdown. If the air supply is
shutĆoff, turn the air back on.
10. Depress the C" reset button and hold it in approx. 3 seconds.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
AROĆSTOP valve does not close when it should.
• Improper adjustment. Readjust and test.
• Change has occurred in operating conditions (i.e. decrease in supĆ
ply pressure). Readjust and test.
AROĆSTOP valve closes for no apparent reason.
• Change has occurred in operating conditions (i.e. increase in supĆ
ply pressure). Readjust and test.
• Material supply has been interrupted. Insureconstant materialsupĆ
ply.
WARNING Always disconnect and relieve air pressure from the AROĆSTOP valve before removing it from the system for servicing.
• Air supply turned on too quickly. Depress reset button.
Pump continues to cycle after AROĆSTOP valve closes.
• Foreign matter on sealing surface of AROĆSTOP valve. DisasĆ
semble and clean valve as described in Service Section.
NOTE: Very slow cycling may occur even after AROĆSTOP valve
closes. This is normal.
AROĆSTOP valve does not start when reset button is depressed.
• Improper adjustment. Readjust and test.
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
DISASSEMBLY:
1. Unscrew therear adapter assembly from the sleeve assembly. This
allows accessibility to the 22836 valve assembly and the 22207
spring.
2. Clean all parts and inspect for damage or wear. Replace the 22836
valve assembly or 22207 spring if necessary.
ASSEMBLY:
1. Reassemble the 22836 valve assembly and the 22207 spring as
shown in the view.
2. Apply thread locking compound to the threads of the rear adapter
assembly and tighten to the sleeve assembly using 30 Ć 40 ft lb
(40.7 Ć 54.2 Nm) torque.
NOTE: Parts other than 22836 valve assembly and 22207 spring,
are not accessible for service and should not be disassembled.
