Wall Mount Packages, Fluid Inlet Fitting

Installation

Wall Mount Packages

FIG. 2 illustrates a wall mount system.

1.Be sure the wall can support the weight of the pump, bracket, hoses and accessories, as well as the stress caused during operation.

2.Position the wall bracket (4) about 1.2-1.5 m (4-5 ft) above the floor. For ease of operation and service, make sure the pump air inlet, fluid inlet, and fluid outlet ports are easily accessible.

3.Using the wall bracket (4) as a template, drill 9 mm mounting holes in the wall. Wall mounting dimen- sions are shown on page 27.

4.Attach the bracket to the wall. Use screws that are long enough to keep the pump from vibrating during operation. Be sure the bracket is level.

Fluid Inlet Fitting

The packages include either a fluid inlet adapter (7) or an elbow (8). These fittings include a sealing o-ring (7a, 8a). Be sure the o-ring is in place before installing the fit- ting. Screw the fitting into the pump a minimum of two full turns, until it faces the desired direction. It is not nec- essary to fully engage the threads. Do not overtighten.

If your package uses the fluid inlet elbow (8), connect the suction tube by pushing the tube into the elbow until it seats, then tighten the elbow nut to secure the tube.

Suction Tube Strainer

To replace the suction tube stainer (9a), loosen the clamp and remove the strainer. Slide the new clamp onto the suction tube, install the new strainer, then slide the clamp onto the strainer and squeeze it to tighten.

Air Inlet Fitting

The air inlet fitting (104) is held in place with a setscrew. See page 22. Loosen this setscrew before removing the fitting. Tighten the setscrew to hold the fitting in place.

Air Line Accessories

Install the following accessories in the order shown in FIG. 2, using adapters as necessary:

•A bleed-type master air valve (B) is required in your system to relieve air trapped between it and the air motor when the valve is closed. Be sure the bleed valve is easily accessible from the pump.

•A pump air regulator (D) controls pump speed and outlet pressure by adjusting the air pressure to the pump. Locate the regulator close to the pump.

•A gun air regulator (N) controls air pressure to the air-assisted spray gun.

•An air line filter (M) removes harmful dirt and mois- ture from the compressed air supply.

•A second bleed-type air valve (L) isolates the air line accessories for servicing. Locate upstream from all other air line accessories.

Fluid Line Accessories

Install the following accessories in the positions shown in FIG. 2, using adapters as necessary:

•A fluid filter (F) with a 60 mesh (250 micron) stain- less steel element, to filter particles from the fluid as it leaves the pump. Install a fluid drain valve (G), which is required in your system to relieve fluid pres- sure in the hose and gun.

•A fluid shutoff valve (H) shuts off fluid flow.

•A fluid pressure regulator (J) allows more precise adjustment of the fluid pressure. See page 11.

•A gun or valve (T) dispenses the fluid. The gun shown in FIG. 2 is an air-assisted spray gun for light to medium viscosity fluids.

•A fluid line swivel (S) allows easier gun movement.

•A suction kit (K) allows the pump to draw fluid from a fluid container.

Flush the Pump Before First Use

The pump is tested with lightweight oil, which is left in to protect the pump parts. If the fluid you are using may be contaminated by the oil, flush it out with a compatible solvent before using the pump. See Flush the Equip- ment on page 14.
