1. Install an air filter/regulator assembly (H). The
fluid stall pressure will be the same as the setting
of the air regulator. The filter removes harmful
dirt and moisture from the compressed air supply.
2. Locate a bleed-type master air valve (G) close to
the pump and use it to relieve trapped air. Be
sure the valve is easily accessible from the pump
and located downstream from the regulator.
Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle
unexpectedly, which could result in serious
injury from splashing.
3. Locate another master air valve (J) upstream
from all air line accessories and use it to isolate
them during cleaning and repair.
4. Install a grounded, flexible air hose (F) between
the accessories and the 3/8 npt(f) pump air inlet.

1. Connect a grounded, flexible fluid hose (K) to the
fluid inlet port. The port on pumps with aluminum
or stainless steel fluid sections is 1 in npt(f) or
1 in. bspt. On pumps with polypropylene fluid
sections, the port is a 1 in. raised face ANSI/DIN
flange.
2. 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 inefficient pump operation. Excessive
inlet fluid pressure also will shorten diaphragm
life. Approximately 0.2–0.3 bar (0.02–0.03 MPa,
3–5 psi) inlet fluid pressure should be adequate
for most materials.
3. For maximum suction lift (wet and dry), see
Technical Data, page
install the pump as close as possible to the
material source. Minimize suction requirements
to maximize pump performance.

1. Connect a grounded, flexible fluid hose (N) to
the fluid outlet port. The port on pumps with
aluminum or stainless steel fluid sections is 1 in
npt(f) or 1 in. bspt. On pumps with polypropylene
fluid sections, the port is a 1 in. raised face
ANSI/DIN flange.
2. Install a fluid drain valve (L) near the fluid outlet.
3. Install a shutoff valve (M) in the fluid outlet line.
