OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

y Always flush the pump with a solvent compatible with

the material being pumped if the material being pumped

is subject to “setting up” when not in use for a period of

time.

y Disconnect the air supply from the pump if it is to be in-

active for a few hours.

y The outlet material volume is governed not only by the

air supply, but also by the material supply available at the

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ARO diaphragm pump offers high volume delivery even at low air pressure and a broad range of material compatibil- ity options are available. Refer to the model and option chart. ARO pumps feature stall resistant design, modular air motor / fluid sections.

Air operated double diaphragm pumps utilize a pressure dif- ferential in the air chambers to alternately create suction and a positive fluid pressure in the fluid chambers, ball checks insure a positive flow of fluid.

Pump cycling will begin as air pressure is applied and it will continue to pump and keep up with the demand. It will build and maintain line pressure and will stop cycling once maxi- mum line pressure is reached (dispensing device closed) and will resume pumping as needed.

AIR AND LUBE REQUIREMENTS

WARNING EXCESSIVE AIR PRESSURE. Can cause pump damage, personal injury or property damage.

yA filter capable of filtering out particles larger than 50 microns should be used on the air supply. There is no lu- brication required other than the “O” ring lubricant which is applied during assembly or repair.

yIf lubricated air is present, make sure that it is compatible with the “O” rings and seals in the air motor section of the pump.

inlet. The material supply tubing should not be too small

or restrictive. Be sure not to use hose which might col-

lapse.

y When the diaphragm pump is used in a forced-feed

(flooded inlet) situation, it is recommended that a “check

valve” be installed at the air inlet.

y Secure the diaphragm pump legs to a suitable surface to

insure against damage by vibration.

MAINTENANCE

yCertain ARO “Smart Parts” are indicated which should be available for fast repair and reduction of down time.

yProvide a clean work surface to protect sensitive internal moving parts from contamination from dirt and foreign matter during service disassembly and reassembly.

yKeep good records of service activity and include the pump in preventive maintenance program.

yService kits are available to service two separate dia- phragm pump functions: 1. AIR SECTION, 2. FLUID SEC- TION. The Fluid Section is divided further to match typical active Material Options.

yBefore disassembling, empty captured material in the outlet manifold by turning the pump upside down to drain material from the pump.
