The personnel in charge of installation, operation and maintenance of the pumps we produce must be qualified to carry out the operations described in this manual. Tapflo shall not be held responsible for the training level of personnel and for the fact that they are not fully aware of the contents of this manual.
The nameplate is made in the below design. It is made of AISI 304 stainless steel and placed on the pump centerblock (see page 1). Non-ATEX nameplate dimensions are 38 x 48 mm and ATEX 38 x 78 mm. IOM manual Tapflo TE series...
1.1. Operation principle The Tapflo electric diaphragm pump is driven by a gear-motor. In EODD pumps we have to change rotary motion into reciprocating one. It is obtained by an eccentric shaft with a cam and piston. The rotary movement of the shaft (red part) is transferred to the reciprocating movement of the diaphragm shaft (yellow part).
Coil the hose at least one turn. All components (hose, pipe, valves etc.) on the discharge piping must be designed for minimum PN 10. NOTE! Never close the shut-off valve during pump operation! IOM manual Tapflo TE series...
1.8.1. Protection In the interest of health and safety it is essential to wear protective clothing and safety goggles when operating, and/or working in the vicinity of Tapflo pumps. 1.8.2. Explosion hazardous environments – ATEX The standard PE & PTFE series pumps are not allowed to operate in environments where there is danger of explosion.
INSTALLATION ATEX (directive 2014/34/EU) classification of Tapflo TXE pump units: Equipment group: – all other explosive areas than mines; Category group: – high level of protection (can be used in zone 1); Atmosphere: – gas; Explosion group: – gas group (such as acetylene, hydrogen);...
1.8.6. 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 speed, the noise can be inconvenient or hazardous for personnel staying for long periods in the vicinity of the pump.
9. Flow gauge 10. Safety valve 1.10. Recommended installations The Tapflo pump is flexible in the way you are able to install it. 1.10.1. Flooded The piping system is designed with a positive suction head. This is the best way of installation where it is necessary to completely evacuate all liquid from the container, or where viscous (thick) products are transferred.
1.10.2. 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 3.5 meters (11.5 ft.) from an empty suction pipe and up to 8 meters (26.2 ft.) from a wetted pipe.
(e.g. motor breaker switches) in the power circuit. Safety devices against overloads must also protect the motors. Make sure that the motor has suitable grounding and that it has been connected properly. IOM manual Tapflo TE series...
INSTALLATION 1.13. Gear-motor standard As a standard Tapflo EODD pump are equipped with gear-motors of the following parameters: ➢ International Mounting Arrangement – B5 ➢ Number of poles / Rotation speed [rpm] – 4 / 1400 ➢ Non ATEX* ➢ Protection grade – IP55 ➢...
When the pump has been filled with liquid, the speed may be raised in order to increase the suction capacity of the pump. Remember that suction capacity is higher when pump runs slowly. IOM manual Tapflo TE series...
(if used – at 50 Hz cool down should be set to 5 seconds). If pump stoppage exceeds 30 minutes – relief the pressure from the diaphragm air side NOTE! Never stop the pump by completely closing the discharge valve without motor shut down. IOM manual Tapflo TE series...
2.4.1. CIP – Cleaning In Place (Sanitary pumps) 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.
In addition, the currently handled fluid and the corresponding safety data sheet must be taken into account. When fluid leakage occurs, the air supply has to be closed and the pressure released. During spillage of an aggressive liquid, local and national safety rules must be followed. IOM manual Tapflo TE series...
Scheduled maintenance is especially important to prevent spills or leakage due to diaphragm failure. Inspect and replace bearing and/or gear-motor shaft extension if failure is suspected. Inspect and replace set screw bearing, set screw and diaphragm shaft if failure is suspected. IOM manual Tapflo TE series...
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 LIQ should be changed during inspection. Tapflo recommend KIT VAL to be changed once per 2 years as well.
Make sure all connections are tight Liquid temperature too high Cool the liquid Abnormal wear Loads on the pipes Connect the pipes independent of the pump Foreign objects in the liquid Use a filter on the suction side IOM manual Tapflo TE series...

We recommend you to conduct a test run of the pump before installing it in the system, so no liquid gets wasted if the pump leaks or perhaps does not start accordingly to wrong assembly of the pump. After two weeks of operation retighten the nuts with appropriate torque. IOM manual Tapflo TE series...

4.4. How to order parts When ordering spare parts for Tapflo pumps, please let us know what is the model number and serial number from the pump centre body or housing. Then just indicate the part numbers from the spare parts list and quantity of each item.
The performance curves are based on water at 20°C. Other circumstances might change the performance. See below how the capacity will change at different viscosities and suction lifts. 5.2.

What is more, for proper operation and safety the torque values should be checked frequently as part of preventive maintenance (please contact Tapflo for interval proposals). Although pump applications vary, a general guideline is to re-torque the pump every two weeks.
