  • Page 7: General

    0.1. Introduction The Tapflo Air Operated Diaphragm Pump range is a complete series of pumps for industrial applications. The pumps are designed to be safe, simple and easy to use and maintain. The construction is seal-less and without rotating parts. The pumps are suitable for a variety of duties in hygienic installations.
  • Page 8: Installation

    1.1. Operation principle The Tapflo diaphragm pump is driven by compressed air. The two diaphragms are connected by a diaphragm shaft and pushed back and forth by alternately pressurising the air chambers behind the diaphragms using an automatically cycling air valve system.
  • Page 9: Lifting And Transportation

    Suction and discharge piping should be fully supported and anchored near to but independent of the pump. The piping to the pump should be a hose, to prevent undue stress and strain on the pump connections and the piping. Tapflo sanitary pump series...

    1.7.1. Protection In the interest of health and safety it is essential to wear protective clothing and safety goggles when operating, and/or working in the vicinity of Tapflo pumps. Tapflo sanitary pump series...

    1.7.3. Air pressure The maximum air pressure for Tapflo pumps is 8 bar. Higher air pressure than 8 bar can damage the pump and may cause injury to personnel in vicinity of the pump. If you intend to apply a higher air pressure than 8 bar, please consult us.

    2) Manometer to read the actual pressure; 3) Needle valve to adjust the air flow (especially when operating the pump in the lower range of performance); 4) Filter. These components are included in Tapflo’s Air treatment system which can be ordered from Tapflo sanitary pump series...

    1.10.2. Self-priming The Tapflo pump is designed to pull a high vacuum. It is able to evacuate an empty suction pipe without any damage to the pump. The suction lift is up to 5 meters (16.4 ft.) from an empty suction pipe and up to 8 meters (26.2 ft.) from a wetted pipe. The suction capability depends on the pump size (see chapter 6.
  • Page 15: Operation

    For instance, a T80 pump should run continuous at maximum 40 l/min.  As stated in chapter 1.8.1 Tapflo recommends to use an appropriate air treatment system in order to extend the pump’s lifetime.
  • Page 16: Pump Stopping

    2.4.1. CIP – Cleaning In Place The importance of easy cleaning is especially great in hygienic applications. Tapflo sanitary pumps are designed for CIP (cleaning in place). This allows the pump to be internally cleaned without disassembly. The pump can be cleaned by flushing through with a CIP fluid (usually a mild solution of sodium hydroxide and a sanitizing additive) or by injection of hot steam.
  • Page 17: Drainage Of The Pump (T80 - T825)

    2.4.1.1. Drainage of the pump (T80 – T825) After the CIP procedure, the pump usually has to be drained from the CIP fluid. The Tapflo sanitary series is supplied with a hygienic stand, enabling 360° rotation of the pump unit.
  • Page 18: Maintenance

    The characteristics of the liquid, temperature, materials used in the pump and running time decide how often a complete inspection is necessary. Nevertheless, Tapflo recommends to inspect the pump at least once a year. Parts from KIT AIR and KIT LIQ should be changed during inspection. See paragraph 4.7 for detailed KIT content.
