CSA-Certified Pumps SECTION 1 PRECAUTIONS – READ FIRST! WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when operating CAUTION: Ensure that the gas supply line is clear of a pump to avoid eye injury. If diaphragm rupture occurs, debris. Use an in-line air filter. A 5µ (micron) air filter is material being pumped may be forced out of the air recommended.

CSA-Certified Pumps SECTION 3 HOW IT WORKS – AIR-OPERATED DOUBLE-DIAPHRAGM PUMP The Wilden diaphragm pump is an air-operated, positive displacement, self-priming pump. These drawings show flow pattern through the pump upon its initial stroke. It is assumed the pump has no fluid in it prior to its initial stroke. FIGURE 1 The air valve directs pressurized air to FIGURE 2 When the pressurized diaphragm, FIGURE 3 At completion of the stroke, the air...

CSA-Certified Pumps SUGGESTED INSTALLATION, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Troubleshooting Pump air valve freezes. Pump will not run or runs slowly. Check for excessive moisture in the compressed air. Remove plug from pilot spool exhaust. Either install a dryer or a hot air generator for compressed Ensure that the air inlet pressure is at least 0.4 bar (5 psig) air.
CSA-Certified Pumps SECTION 7 DISASSEMBLY / REASSEMBLY PUMP DISASSEMBLY Tools Required: CAUTION: Before attempting any maintenance or repair, disconnect the compressed air line to the pump and allow all air pressure to bleed from the pump. Disconnect all 3/8" Box Wrench (GPS1) intake, discharge, and air lines.
