P8 Clamped Metal 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...

P8 Clamped Metal SECTION 5 SUCTION LIFT CAPABILITY P8 METAL SUCTION- LIFT CAPABILITY Suction-lift curves are calibrated for pumps operating at 305 m (1,000') above sea level. This chart is meant to be a guide only. There are many variables that can affect your pump's operating characteristics.
P8 Clamped Metal SECTION 6 SUGGESTED INSTALLATION, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Wilden pumps are designed to meet the performance requirements of Elevation: Selecting a site that is well within the pump’s even the most demanding pumping applications. They have been dynamic lift capability will assure that loss-of-prime issues will designed and manufactured to the highest standards and are be eliminated.

P8 Clamped Metal SUGGESTED INSTALLATION, OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING to control the pump from a remote location. When the pump discharge pressure equals or exceeds the air supply pressure, the NOTE: In the event of a power failure, close the shut- pump will stop.
P8 Clamped Metal 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.
