Component Description
This equipment consists of two major components: the
air motor (1) and the displacement pump. See Fig. 1 .
The pump is an in-line design, which means that the
displacement pump screws directly into the motor,
without the use of tie rods or couplers. The displace-
ment pump can be placed directly in the fluid being
pumped.
The pump is available in three different lengths, based
on the size of the fluid container. Refer to the front cov-
er for available sizes. The pumps differ only in length;
operation and packings are the same. All three pumps
use the same Air Motor.
Make sure the muffler (36) is securely installed in the
exhaust port (N) before you operate the pump. See
Fig. 1.
