Pressure Relief Procedure
Warning
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
The equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To reduce the risk of serious injury
from pressurized fluid, accidental spray, or splashing fluid,
follow this procedure whenever you:
D Are instructed to relieve pressure;
D Stop pumping;
D Check, clean or service any system equipment;
D Install or clean fluid nozzles.
1. Shut off the air to the pump.
2. Open the dispensing valve, if used.
3. Open the fluid drain valve to relieve all fluid pressure,
and have a container ready to catch the drainage.
Flush the Pump Before First Use
The pump was tested with water. Prior to first use, flush the
pump thoroughly with a compatible solvent. Follow the steps
under Starting and Adjusting the Pump.
Starting and Adjusting the Pump
Read Toxic Fluid Hazard on
1.
page 3.
If lifting the pump, follow the Pressure
2.
Relief Procedure above.

Be sure the pump is
properly grounded.
Read Fire and Explo-
sion Hazard on
page 3.
4. Check all fittings to be sure they are tight. Use a compat-
ible liquid thread sealant on all male threads. Tighten the
fluid inlet and outlet fittings snugly. Do not over–tighten
the fittings into the pump.
5. Place the suction tube (if used) in the fluid to be pumped.
NOTE: If the inlet fluid pressure to the pump is more than
25% of the outlet working pressure, the ball check
valves will not close fast enough, resulting in ineffi-
cient pump operation.
6. Place the end of the fluid hose (K) into an appropriate
container.
7. Close the fluid drain valve (H).
8. With the pump air regulator (G) closed, open all bleed-
type master air valves (B, E).
9. If the fluid hose has a dispensing device, hold it open
while continuing with the following step. Slowly open the
air regulator (G) 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.
If you are flushing, run the pump long enough to
thoroughly clean the pump and hoses. Close the air
regulator. Remove the suction tube from the solvent
and place it in the fluid to be pumped.
Operation of Remote Piloted Pumps
1. Follow steps 1–8 above.
2. Open the air regulator (G).
Warning
The pump may cycle once before the external signal is
applied.
3. The pump will operate when air pressure is alternately
applied to the push type connectors (16).
NOTE: Leaving air pressure applied to the air motor for ex-
tended periods when the pump is not running may
shorten the diaphragm life. Using a 3–way solenoid
valve to automatically relieve the pressure on the air
motor when the metering cycle is complete prevents
this from occurring.
Pump Shutdown
At the end of the work shift, relieve the
pressure as described in Pressure Re-
lief Procedure at left.
