    VERDER Customer Service for assistance FIRE AND EXPLOSION in planning a system to suit your needs. HAZARD Always use Genuine VERDER Parts and Accessories. This pump must be grounded. Before Be sure all accessories are adequately sized and operating the pump, ground the system pressure-rated to meet the system’s requirements.
  • Page 7 Installation • All solvent pails used when flushing, according to local Grounding (continued) code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive. Do not place the pail on a non-conductive surface, such as To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the pump and paper or cardboard, which interrupts the grounding all other equipment used or located in the pumping area.
  • Page 8 Installation Air Line Locate one bleed-type master air valve (B) close to the pump and use it to relieve trapped air. See the Warning at left. Locate the other master air Warning valve (E) upstream from all air line accessories and use it to isolate them during cleaning and A bleed-type master air valve (B) is required in your system repair.
  • Page 9 Installation Mountings If the fluid inlet 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 Caution operation. The pump exhaust air may contain contaminants. Ventilate At inlet fluid pressures greater than 1.05 bar, diaphragm to a remote area if the contaminants could affect your fluid life will be shortened.

  • Page 12 Installation Air Exhaust Ventilation The air exhaust port is 3/4 npt(f). Do not restrict the air exhaust port. Excessive exhaust restriction can cause erratic pump operation. Warning If the muffler (P) is installed directly to the air exhaust port, FIRE AND EXPLOSION apply PTFE thread tape or anti–seize lubricant to the muffler HAZARD threads before assembly.
  • Page 13: Operation

    Operation Pressure Relief Procedure Be sure the pump is properly grounded. Refer to Grounding on page 6. Warning Check all fittings to be sure they are tight. Be sure to use a compatible liquid thread sealant on all male threads. PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD Tighten the fluid inlet and outlet fittings securely.

    Maintenance Lubrication Tightening Threaded Connections The air valve is designed to operate unlubricated. However, Before each use, check all hoses for wear or damage, and if lubrication is desired, every 500 hours of operation (or replace as necessary. Check to be sure all threaded monthly) remove the hose from the pump air inlet and add connections are tight and leak-free.
