Installation Guidelines
Figure 3-4 and Figure 3-5 show typical dead-end and circulating systems. When installing
your pump, follow these guidelines:
• The compressed air supply should be clean and dry. Moisture-laden air can cause
dryer to remove moisture from the air supply. Filter the air to 40 microns or better.
• The air drop to the pump should be plumbed from the top of the plant air line to
prevent moisture from entering the pump air supply line. Install a drop leg and drain
valve at the bottom of the drop.
•
•
•
use rigid plumbing, which conducts vibration.
• Make sure the siphon connections are secure and leak-free. A leaking siphon
connection will allow air to be drawn into the pump, causing cavitation and poor
• Safety for
beginning production.
• Ground all system components, waste containers, and coating supplies. The only
exception to this rule is electrostatic systems where the coating supply is charged at
the supply rather than at the spray device.
