Installation

Grounding

Pump: use a ground wire and clamp (not included). See

FIG. 2. Remove the green ground screw (Z) from the

bottom of the air motor. Insert the screw through the

loop on the end of the ground wire (Y) and reattach the

screw to the air motor. Connect the ground clamp to a

true earth ground. Order Part No. 244524, Ground Wire

and Clamp.

Air and fluid hoses: use only electrically conductive

hoses with a maximum of 500 ft. (150 m) combined

hose length to ensure grounding continuity. Check the

electrical resistance of hoses. If the total resistance to

ground exceeds 25 megohms, replace hose immedi-

ately.

Air compressor: follow manufacturer’s recommenda-

tions.

Surge tank: use a ground wire and clamp.

Dispense valve: ground through a connection to a

properly grounded fluid hose and pump.

Fluid supply container: follow local code.

Object being sprayed: 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 non-conductive sur-

face, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts

grounding continuity.

To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or

relieving pressure: hold metal part of the spray gun or

valve firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, and

then trigger the gun or open the valve.

Mounting

The pump can be mounted using one of the following

options:

• Stand mount: Kit 253692

• Wall mount: Kit 255143

• Floor mount:

• Kit 19Y313—Complete kit

• Kit 19Y286—Plate for mounting to an existing

floor mount

Pump Mounting Kits manual 311619 describes the

mount parts and how to install each.

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 electric current.

Installation

83A6938D

Plumbing

Install a fluid shutoff valve (D) between the mix tank (A)

and the pump (F).

When using a stainless steel pump, use stainless steel

plumbing to maintain a corrosion-resistant system.

Flush Before Using Equipment

The equipment was tested with lightweight oil, which is

left in the fluid passages to protect parts. To avoid con-

taminating your fluid with oil, flush the equipment with a

compatible solvent before using the equipment. See

Flushing the Fluid Supply Lines, page 11.

Accessories

Install the following accessories in the order shown in

FIG. 1, page 6, using adapters as necessary.

Fluid Line

See FIG. 1, page 6.

•Fluid shutoff valve (D): shuts off fluid flow.

•Fluid filter: with a 60 mesh (250 micron) stainless

steel element to filter particles from the fluid as it

leaves the pump.

•Fluid drain valve (N): required in your system, to

relieve fluid pressure in the hose and gun.

Air Line

See FIG. 1, page 6.

•Second bleed-type air valve (H): isolates air line

accessories for servicing. Locate upstream from all

other air line accessories.

•Air line filter (K): removes harmful dirt and mois-

ture from compressed air supply.

•Pump air regulator (L): to control pump speed and

outlet pressure. Locate close to the pump.

•Bleed-type master air valve (M): required in your

system to relieve air trapped between it and the air

motor when the valve is closed.

NOTICE

To prevent a bellows failure in a sealed 4-ball pump:

• Do not exceed fluid inlet pressure of 15 psi (0.1

MPa, 1.0 bar).

• Do not use a ball check pump on the inlet side of

this pump.

• Do not use a suction tube with a check valve on

the inlet side of this pump.

Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpect-

edly, which could result in serious injury from splash-

ing or moving parts. Be sure the valve is easily

accessible from the pump and located downstream

from the air regulator. Be sure the air bleed hole

points away from the operator.

To help prevent fluid over pressurization, do not

exceed the maximum air inlet pressure rating to the

air motor (see page 27). If you can apply more than

the maximum air input pressure to the system, install

a safety relief valve between the bleed-type master

air valve and the air motor. The safety relief valve

must be set to open if the air inlet pressure to the

motor exceeds the motor rating.

Operation

3A6938D 9

Operation

Pressure Relief Procedure

Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure

whenever you see this symbol.

1. Close the bleed-type master air valve (M).

2. Open the dispensing valve, if used.

3. Open all fluid drain valves (N) in the system, having

a waste container ready to catch drainage.

4. Leave drain valve(s) open until you are ready to

pump again.

Prime the Pump

1. Fill the wet cup with Throat Seal Liquid (TSL).

NOTE: Sealed 4-ball lowers with bellows do not

require TSL.

NOTE: During operation the TSL level in the wet cup will

fluctuate slightly at pump changeover.

2. Close pump air regulator (L) by turning the knob

counterclockwise, reducing pressure to zero. Close

the bleed-type air valve (H). Also verify that all drain

valves (N) are closed.

3. Connect air line (J) to bleed type air valve (H).

4. Check that all fittings throughout system are tight-

ened securely.

5. Connect the fluid supply line (C) from the mix tank

shutoff valve (D) to the pump.

6. Connect the fluid line (E) to the pump outlet or surge

suppressor outlet (G), if used.

NOTE: If your pump has DataTrak, see your separate

XL air motor manual for DataTrak instructions.

7. DataTrak equipped units with runaway protection

only: enable the prime/flush function by pushing the

prime/flush button on the DataTrak.

8. Open bleed-type air valve (H). Slowly turn pump air

regulator (L) clockwise, increasing pressure until

pump starts.

9. Cycle pump slowly until all air is pushed out and

pump and hoses are fully primed.

10. DataTrak equipped units with runaway protection

only: disable the prime/flush function by pushing the

prime/flush button on the DataTrak.

11. Close the fluid shutoff valve (D) downstream of the

pump. The pump should stall against pressure.

NOTE: In a circulation system, the pump operates con-

tinuously until the power supply is shut off. In a

direct-supply system, the pump starts when the dis-

pense valve is opened, and stops when the dispense

valve is closed.

This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is

manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from

splashing fluid and moving parts, follow the Pressure

Relief Procedure when you stop spraying and before

cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment.

NOTICE

Do not allow the pump to run quickly for a long period

of time as this may damage the packings.

Operation

10 3A6938D

Stop Pump at Bottom of Stroke

Relieve the pressure when you stop the pump for any

reason. Stop the pump on the down stroke, before the

air motor changes over.

Shutdown

Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure, page 9.

Always flush the pump before the fluid dries on the dis-

placement rod. See Flushing the Fluid Supply Lines

on page 11.

NOTICE

Failure to stop the pump at the bottom of its stroke

allows fluid to dry on the piston rod (R), which can

damage the throat seal.
