PR860/PR870 Bolted Metal SECTION 1 PRECAUTIONS – READ FIRST! WARNING: Always wear safety glasses when operating CAUTION: All Wilden pumps are capable of passing a pump to avoid eye injury. If diaphragm rupture occurs, solids. Use a strainer on the pump intake to ensure that material being pumped may be forced out of the air the pump's rated solids capacity is not exceeded.

PR860/PR870 Bolted 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...

PR860/PR870 Bolted Metal SUCTION LIFT CAPABILITY PR860/PR870 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.

PR860/PR870 Bolted 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.
PR860/PR870 Bolted 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.
