Ground The System

Air Lines

The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk of static sparking. Static sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode. Grounding provides an escape wire for the electrical current.

•Always ground the entire fluid system as described below.

•Polypropylene and PVDF pumps are not conductive and are not for use with flammable fluids.

•Follow your local fire codes.

Before operating the pump, ground the system as explained below.

•Pump: Always ground the entire fluid system by making sure the fluid has an electrical path to a true earth ground.

•Air and fluid hoses: Use only grounded hoses with a maximum of 500 ft (150 m) combined hose length to ensure grounding continuity.

•Air compressor: Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.

•Fluid supply container: Follow local code.

•Solvent pails used when flushing: Follow local code. Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts grounding continuity.

Check your system electrical continuity after the initial installation, and then set up a regular schedule for checking continuity to be sure proper grounding is maintained.

1.Install an air regulator and gauge (C) to control the fluid pressure. The fluid stall pressure will be the same as the setting of the air regulator.

2.Locate a bleed-type master air valve (B) close to the pump and use it to relieve trapped air. Be sure the valve is easily accessible from the pump and located downstream from the regulator.

Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury from splashing.

3.Locate another master air valve (D) upstream from all air line accessories and use it to isolate them during cleaning and repair.

4.An air line filter (C) removes harmful dirt and moisture from the compressed air supply.

5.Install a grounded, flexible air hose (A) between the accessories and the 3/4 npt(f) pump air inlet.
