Page 6: General
0.1. Introduction The Tapflo Air Operated Diaphragm Pump range is a complete series of pumps for industrial applications. The pumps are designed to be safe, simple and easy to use and maintain. The construction is seal-less and without rotating parts. The pumps are suitable for a variety of duties in hygienic installations. -
Page 7: Installation
1.1. Operation principle The Tapflo diaphragm pump is driven by compressed air. The two diaphragms are connected by a diaphragm shaft and pushed back and forth by alternately pressurising the air chambers behind the diaphragms using an automatically cycling air valve system. -
Page 8: Storage
INTSTALLATION 1.3. Storage If the equipment is to be stored prior to installation, place it in a clean location. The pump should be stored in an ambient temperature of 15°C (59°F) to 25°C (77°F) and relative humidity below 65%. It should not be exposed to any heat source e.g. radiator, sun as this could result in a negative way on the tightness of the pump. -
Page 9: Health And Safety
1.6.3. Air pressure The maximum air pressure for Tapflo pumps is 8 bar. Higher air pressure than 8 bar can damage the pump and may cause injury to personnel in vicinity of the pump. If you intend to apply a higher air pressure than 8 bar, please consult us. -
Page 10: Noise Level
1.6.4. Noise level At tests, the noise level from a Tapflo pump has not exceeded 80 dB(A). Under some circumstances, for example if the pump is operating under high air pressure at low discharge head, the noise can be inconvenient or hazardous for personnel staying for long periods in the vicinity of the pump. -
Page 11: Example Of Installation
1.9.2. Self-priming The Tapflo pump is designed to pull a high vacuum. It is able to evacuate an empty suction pipe without any damage to the pump. The suction lift is up to 5 meters (16.4 ft.) from an empty suction pipe and up to 8 meters (26.2 ft.) from a wetted pipe. The suction capability depends on the pump size (see chapter 6. -
Page 12: Operation
For instance, a T80 pump should run continuous at maximum 40 l/min. As stated in chapter 1.7.1 Tapflo recommends to use an appropriate air treatment system in order to extend the pump’s lifetime. -
Page 13: Pump Stopping
2.4.1. CIP – Cleaning In Place The importance of easy cleaning is especially great in hygienic applications. Tapflo sanitary pumps are designed for CIP (cleaning in place). This allows the pump to be internally cleaned without disassembly. The pump can be cleaned by flushing through with a CIP fluid (usually a mild solution of sodium hydroxide and a sanitizing additive) or by injection of hot steam. -
Page 14: Drainage Of The Pump (T80 - T825)
2.4.1.1. Drainage of the pump (T80 – T825) After the CIP procedure, the pump usually has to be drained from the CIP fluid. The Tapflo sanitary series is supplied with a hygienic stand, enabling 360° rotation of the pump unit. -
Page 15: Maintenance
The characteristics of the liquid, temperature, materials used in the pump and running time decide how often a complete inspection is necessary. Nevertheless, Tapflo recommends to inspect the pump at least once a year. Parts from KIT AIR and KIT LIQ should be changed during inspection. See paragraph 4.7 for detailed KIT content. -

MAINTENANCE 3.5. T30 – Disassembly of the pump The numbers put in brackets, refer to the part numbers in the spare part drawings and spare part lists in chapter 5 “SPARE PARTS”. 3.5.1. Before the disassembly procedure Be sure to drain all liquid from the pump. Cleanse or neutralize the pump thoroughly. - Page 18 MAINTENANCE Fig. 3.5.5 Unscrew the domed nuts [37] and remove the housing [11] from one side of the pump. Fig 3.5.6 Unscrew the diaphragm [15]. Fig 3.5.7 Turn the pump over, remove the domed nuts [37] and washers [38]. Take off the second housing [11]. Fig 3.5.8 Take out the pin screws [14] and unscrew the second diaphragm [15].

O-rings to provide smooth insertion of the air valve. It is recommended to use a pressing device for this operation. NOTE! When inserting the T30 size air valve, replace the shaft with a screw and a nut to make sure the air valve assembly remains properly fastened. -

MAINTENANCE Fig. 3.6.4 During assembly of the housings [11] make sure they are in the correct position – the inlet pipe has a valve ball stopper. Fig. 3.6.5 When fastening the domed nuts, remember to do it according to the tightening procedure and with the appropriate torque. -

Page 26: Options
OPTIONS OPTIONS 4.1. Valve options In T225, T425 and T825 pump sizes flap valves or heavy duty valve cups (not available in T825) are available as an option instead of standard valves. 4.1.1. Flap valves It is a great option when the product we intend to pump has high viscosity, contains big solids or solids that can be damages by valve balls (e.g. -
Page 27: Ball Cup Valves
OPTIONS 4.1.2. Ball cup valves This option is a perfect solution when there is risk of damage to the valve seats from the product. If such situation is to occur there is no need to replace the whole manifolds or housings, just the valve cup what drastically reduces the spare parts cost. -
Page 28: Magnetic Ball Lifters
OPTIONS 4.3. Magnetic ball lifters New magnetic ball lifters have been implemented in pump sizes T125 – T425. They are implemented to enable pump emptying when no other draining option is available. Rotating the pump is no longer needed. The balls are lifted by simply attaching the magnets to the pumps manifold. Valve balls are available in AISI 420 magnetic stainless steel or PTFE wits steel core. -
