Installation

Prepare the Operator

All persons who operate the equipment must be trained in the safe, efficient operation of all system components as well as the proper handling of all fluids. All operators must thoroughly read all instruction manuals, tags, and labels before operating the equipment.

Prepare the Site

Ensure that you have an adequate compressed air supply.

Bring a compressed air supply line from the air com- pressor to the pump location. Be sure all air hoses are properly sized and pressure-rated for your system. Use only electrically conductive hoses. The air hose should have a 3/8 npt(m) thread. A quick disconnect coupling is recommended.

Keep the site clear of any obstacles or debris that could interfere with the operator's movement.

Have a grounded, metal pail available for use when flushing the system.

Supplied Components

See FIG. 2 on page 9.

The red-handled bleed-type master air valve (D) is required in your system to relieve air trapped between it and the air motor and gun when the valve is closed. Do not block access to the valve.

The pump air regulator (F) controls pump speed and outlet pressure by adjusting the air pressure to the pump.

The air pressure relief valve (P) opens automati- cally to prevent overpressurization of the pump.

The gun air regulator (E) adjusts the air pressure to the air-assisted spray gun.

The spray gun (H) dispenses the fluid. The gun houses the spray tip (not shown), which is available in a wide range of sizes for different spray patterns and rates of flow. Refer to gun manual for tip instal- lation.

The red hose (G) provides the gun air supply.

The blue hose (K) provides the gun fluid supply.

The suction kit with strainer (J) allows the pump to draw fluid from a 5 gallon (19 liter) pail.

Inline Fluid Filter Kits

Inline fluid filter kits are available as an accessory in stainless steel (24F271) or aluminum (24F272), to filter particles from fluid as it leaves the pump. Kits include a 60 mesh (250 micron) stainless steel element.

Air Line Accessories

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

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

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