Installation
3A6831G 7
Installation
Grounding
Pump: ground through electrically conductive pneu-
matic and fluid lines.
Pneumatic and fluid lines: use only electrically con-
ductive lines.
Air compressor: follow manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions.
Fluid supply container: follow local code.
Required Accessories
Install the following required accessories as shown in
FIG. 1, using adapters as necessary.
Pneumatic Line
•Primary bleed-type master pneumatic valve (D):
required in your system to relieve air/gas trapped
between it and the pneumatic motor when the valve
is closed.
• Be sure the valve is easily accessible from the
pump and located downstream from the pneu-
matic pressure regulator.
•Pump pneumatic pressure regulator (E): to con-
trol pump speed and outlet pressure. Locate it close
to the pump.
•Pneumatic filter (C): removes harmful dirt and
moisture from compressed air/gas supply.
•Secondary bleed-type pneumatic valve (pneu-
matic shutoff valve) (B): isolates pneumatic line
accessories for servicing. Locate upstream from all
other pneumatic line accessories.
Fluid Line
•Fluid filter (Y-strainer) (included in G): with a 60
mesh (250 micron) stainless steel element to filter
particles from the fluid before in reaches the pump.
•Fluid shutoff valve (H): shuts off fluid flow.
•Pressure relief valve (J): overload protection.
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
Flush the Equipment, page 12.
If using a flammable gas to drive the motor, to reduce
the risk of fire or explosion, route the exhaust away
from all sources of ignition. See Route Exhaust to
Remote Location on page 9.
NOTE: A small amount of the exhaust is not recover-
able, and will vent to atmosphere at the pump. How-
ever, a 100% Exhaust Capture Kit, B32651, is
available.
To reduce the risk of injury from ejected ice, do not
operate the motor without a plumbed exhaust line or
muffler installed.
Installation must comply with all local codes and regu-
lations.
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
83A6831G
Typical Installation
FIG. 1 is an example of an installation with a Python
XL-DA25 chemical injection pump. Your installation may
differ from what is shown here. (See Required Acces-
sories, page 7.) The Python XL-DA25 pump (F) and
secondary bleed-type pneumatic valve (B) are the only
components in FIG. 1 supplied by Graco. All other com-
ponents are supplied by customer.

The pump can be bolted to a wall or skid by the attached
bracket.
NOTE: The pump must always be mounted vertically.
If you have an application, or mounting configuration,
that requires installation in a manner different than
depicted in FIG. 1, please contact your Graco distributor
for assistance.
NOTE: A Y-strainer (G) or chemical filter is required
before the pump inlet. This will keep debris from the
tank from reaching the pump seals. Fluid filters are
available from Graco.
1. Mount the pump (F) and connect the fluid inlet
line (K).

Installation
3A6831G 9
Connect Pneumatic Supply
1. Install the pneumatic pressure regulator (E) and
gauge to control the inlet pressure. See Models on
page 3 for your model’s maximum pneumatic pres-
sure.
NOTE: If less than 100 psi supply pressure is used, the
pump’s maximum output pressure will be decreased
proportionally.
Minimum pneumatic pressure can be found by first find-
ing the table that corresponds to the pneumatic motor
size (see Minimum Pneumatic Pressures by Fluid
Plunger Size and Outlet Pressures on page 10). Next,
using the column that corresponds to the plunger size,
find the row equal to or slightly greater than the outlet
pressure of the pump. The value is the minimum pneu-
matic pressure required to achieve the fluid outlet pres-
sure.
2. Install a pneumatic filter (C) to keep debris from
affecting pump performance and to increase pump
life.
NOTE: Keep the secondary bleed-type pneumatic
valve (B) closed at this point to keep the pump from
operating without fluid, which minimizes seal wear.
3. Attach a pneumatic line to the 1/4 in. female NPT
port on the secondary bleed-type pneumatic
valve (B).
Route Exhaust to Remote
Location
Replace the muffler (18) with a pneumatic line to route
exhaust to a remote location.
Connect Chemical Outlet
1. Connect a fluid line from the pump outlet port (M) to
the injection point.
2. Install a check valve (T).
3. Install a fluid pressure relief valve (J) on the outlet
side of the pump.
NOTE: A pressure relief valve is required and is avail-
able from Graco, and can be connected back to the tank
or directly to the inlet side of the pump. See Kits and
Accessories on page 36.
4. Set the pressure relief valve at or below the maxi-
mum working pressure of the pump.
NOTICE
Due to the operational design of the pneumatic valve,
a small amount of the exhaust is not recoverable, and
will vent to atmosphere. However, a 100% Exhaust
Capture Kit, B32651, is available.
In the event of an injection line blockage, to reducethe
risk of skin injection and damage to the pump, ensure
the pressure relief valve is set at or below the maxi-
mum working pressure of the pump.

using the two fluid shutoff valves (H) and the sec-
ondary bleed-type pneumatic valve (B).
2. Slowly loosen the inlet and outlet fluid lines (K & P)
at the pump (L & M) to bleed off any residual pres-
sure.
Flush the Equipment
• Flush with a fluid that is compatible with the fluid
being dispensed and the equipment wetted parts.
1. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure.
2. Disconnect the inlet and outlet fluid lines (K & P)
from the pump (L & M).
3. Connect the inlet port to the flushing fluid supply
source.
4. Connect the outlet port to the waste reservoir.
5. Run the pump until the dispensed fluid is predomi-
nately flushing fluid.
6. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure.
7. Connect the inlet and outlet fluid lines (K & P) to the
pump (L & M).
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from
pressurized fluid, such as skin injection and splashing
fluid, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when
you stop dispensing and before cleaning, checking, or
servicing the equipment.
To avoid fire andexplosion, always ground equipment
and waste container. To avoid static sparking and
injury from splashing, always flush at the lowest pos-
sible pressure.

Operation
3A6831G 13
Prime the Pump
1. Verify all connections and fluid lines are tight.
NOTE: The pneumatic pressure regulator (E) and speed
control valve (R) (needle valve) both affect the pump
cycle rate. After inlet pressure is set, the needle valve
can serve as a speed control.
2. Adjust the pneumatic pressure regulator (E) to
desired pressure.
3. Open the primary bleed-type master pneumatic
valve (D). Slowly turn the speed control valve (R)
counter-clockwise, increasing air/gas flow to the
pump.
4. Keep the pump cycle rate less than 1 cycle every 3
seconds while priming the pump.
Calibrate Chemical Dosage
1. Set the pump to an estimated setting of the flow
rate.
2. Follow the instructions provided with your calibration
gauge.
3. Adjust the cycle rate with the speed control valve
(R) and/or the pneumatic pressure regulator (E).
4. Repeat the steps 2 and 3 to verify your changes.
Repeat as necessary until the desired flow rate is
achieved.
Baseline Chemical Dosage Settings
See Performance Charts, starting on page 40, for max-
imum flows at any given pressure.
NOTICE
Pump runaway may occur if the speed control valve
(R) is opened too far for pressure settings, causing
damage to the packing sets (102 and 107).

Maintenance
14 3A6831G
Maintenance
Preventive Maintenance
Schedule
The operating conditions of your particular pump deter-
mines how often maintenance is required. Establish a
preventive maintenance schedule by recording when
and what kind of maintenance is needed, and then
determine a regular schedule for checking your pump.
Tighten Threaded Connections
Check that all threaded connections are tight before
each use and at routine intervals.
Tighten Packings
The packings included in your pump have the ability to
be adjusted to stop leaks that develop when the seals
are worn. If a leak develops in the pump’s fluid section,
tighten the packing nut clockwise by 1/16 of a turn, or
lower, until the leak is eliminated. The life of the packing
can be affected by over-tightening the packings. If the
packing nut needs to be tightened repeatedly after short
intervals, replace the packing.
Storage
If the pump is going to be stored for long periods, flush
the pump with a light-weight oil or rust prohibiter before
storage to protect pump components. Store the pump
with protective fluid inside whenever possible.
