Page 10: Mode Of Operation
Mode of operation As a rule, the pump may be operated in any position but the longest service life of sealings is ensured when it is installed vertically. Drive part The drive part consists of an air cylinder (22), bottom cap (20), top cap (26) and air piston (48) to which compressed air is admitted reciprocally that prompts it to make an oscillating motion. -
Page 11: High-Pressure Part
High-pressure part The pump is envisaged for pumpage and compression of water or oil. The hydraulic pressure can be determined by adjustment of the drive pressure. Please, use the attached diagram for this purpose (Technical Data). The piston frequency decreases with rising hydraulic pressure. Operate the pump at a low frequency until the pump is fully primed with fluid and the hydraulic system is ventilated. -

Page 17: Compressed Air Quality
Compressed air lubrificator Yes or No The following problems may occur when MAXIMATOR pumps are operated with dried drive air (dew point below -10° C): * Dried drive air may cause the hardening of installation lubricant. This may result in malfunctions in the control and drive parts of the pump. - Page 18 Important advice: When a MAXIMATOR pumps is operated with a lubrificator the drive air must always be oil (The oil washes the installation lubricant off sealing and guiding elements). the pump should be returned to the manufacturer in order to perform a new...
