- Page 4 Guzzler GE-0404x / -0504x Pump Installation & Safety Information Your Guzzler pump ships fully assembled and ready to operate (Figure 1). The pump should be protected from the weather. If it is placed in an enclosure, be sure to allow adequate airflow around the motor for cooling.
- Page 5 Pump Installation and Operating Information Your Guzzler Pump is capable of developing 22 in. of Hg vacuum (0.7 bar), but it is a low‐cfm (cubic feet of air per minute) pump. This means that even very small leaks can prevent the pump from delivering its rated vacuum. Maintain your tap lines to keep your system tight and address problems that can cause vacuum leaks.
- Page 6 Maintenance - Changing the Diaphragm Over time, the elastomer components of the pump (i.e., the diaphragm and valves) will fail. Diaphragms tend to develop a hole or tear. If the diaphragm fails, the pump will continue to operate, but will be unable to create or maintain a vacuum.
- Page 7 Maintenance - Changing Pump Valves There are two valves in each Guzzler pump. One valve is located between the pump body and the inlet port; the other, between the pump body and the outlet port. Your Guzzler pump may be equipped with either duckbill valves or umbrella valves, depending on the pump options chosen.
- Page 8 Maintenance - Changing Pump Valves In the case of the umbrella valve, material may become lodged in the umbrella valve pores, preventing the rub- ber umbrella valve from sealing tightly against the valve stop. The duckbill valve is generally better able to pass fluid containing some debris or material.
- Page 9 Maintenance - Changing Pump Valves 3. Inspect the valve for any tears. Remove any dirt or material that may have become lodged in the valve. For umbrella valves, in- spect O-rings in valve stop for any sign of wear and replace as necessary. Ensure that they are correctly installed in the valve stop grooves. (Figure 12) 4. To replace an umbrella valve, use a pair of pliers to grasp the flat por on of the old umbrella valve and pull the en re valve through the valve stop center retaining hole. (Figure 13) Insert the stem of the new valve into the valve stop retaining hole so Umbrella valve stop with O-ring installed in grooves. (Example shown for GE-0404x that the flat por on of the valve is on the same side of the valve pump.) stop as the old valve. Use pliers to grasp the stem of the valve Figure 12 on the other side and pull it completely through un l it snaps into place. 5. Posi on the new valve (or the inspected and cleaned old valve) between the pump body and the pump inlet flange, taking care to orient the valve as shown in Figure 10 on page 7. Fasten the pump flange and, for umbrella valves, the valve stop to the pump body using the flange screws. 6. ...
