Installation
Installation
General Information
The Typical Installation shown is only a guide for
selecting and installing system components. Contact
your Graco distributor for assistance in planning a
system to suit your needs. Always use Genuine
Graco Parts and accessories. Be sure all accessories
are adequately sized and pressure rated to meet the
system’s requirements.
Reference letters in the text, for example (A), refer to
the callouts in the figures.
Variations in color between the plastic components
of this pump are normal. Color variation does not
affect the performance of the pump.
Storage: Pumps that are not put into operation
upon delivery must be stored appropriately. See
Flushing and Storage, page 15.
Tighten Fasteners
Before mounting and using the pump for the
first time, check and retorque all external bolts.
Remove all protective bolt covers (37). Follow
Torque Instructions, page 22, to tighten all bolts.
Replace the bolt covers (37). After the first day of
operation, retorque the bolts. Retorque the bolts if the
pump has been idle for an extended time, been used
in thermal cycling applications, been disassembled,
or if there is a large difference between environmental
temperatures and fluid temperatures.
Tips to Reduce Cavitation
Cavitation in an AODD pump is the formation and
collapse of bubbles in the pumped liquid. Frequent
or excessive cavitation can cause serious damage,
including pitting and early wear of fluid chambers,
balls, and seats. It may result in reduced efficiency of
the pump. Cavitation damage and reduced efficiency
both result in increased operating costs.
Cavitation depends on the vapor pressure of the
pumped liquid, the system suction pressure, and the
velocity pressure. It can be reduced by changing any
of these factors.
1. Reduce vapor pressure: Decrease the
temperature of the pumped liquid.
2. Increase suction pressure:
a. Lower the installed position of the pump
relative to the liquid level in the supply.
b. Reduce the friction length of the suction
piping. Remember that fittings add friction
length to the piping. Reduce the number of
fittings to reduce the friction length.
c. Increase the size of the suction piping.
3. Reduce liquid velocity: Slow the cyclic rate of
the pump.
Pumped liquid viscosity is also very important but
normally is controlled by factors that are process
dependent and cannot be changed to reduce
cavitation. Viscous liquids are more difficult to pump
and more prone to cavitation.
Graco recommends taking all the above factors
into account in system design. To maintain pump
efficiency, supply only enough air pressure to the
pump to achieve the required flow.
Graco distributors can supply site specific
suggestions to improve pump performance and
reduce operating costs.

Installation
Mount The Pump
To avoid serious injury from toxic fluid or fumes:
• Ventilate to a remote area. The pump
exhaust air may contain contaminants. See
Air Exhaust Ventilation, page 11.
• Never move or lift a pump under pressure. If
dropped, the fluid section may rupture. Always
follow the Pressure Relief Procedure, page 14,
before moving or lifting the pump.
1. Mount the pump so the exhaust port remains
clear of the production area. Exhaust air may
contain debris and condensation from the air
supply and air chamber.
2. Be sure the mounting surface can support the
weight of the pump, hoses, and accessories, as
well as the stress caused during operation.
3. For all mountings, be sure the pump is secured
with screws through the mounting feet. Always
mount the pump upright.
4. Make sure the surface is flat and that the pump
doesn’t wobble.
5. For ease of operation and service, mount the
pump so air inlet, fluid inlet and fluid outlet ports
are easily accessible.

Installation
Ground The System
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 electrical current.
•Always ground the entire fluid system as
described below.
• The pumps are not conductive. Any system
used to pump flammable fluids must be properly
grounded.
• Follow your local fire codes.
Before operating the pump, ground the system as
explained below.
•Pump: Always ground the entire fluid system by
making sure the fluid has an electrical path to a
true earth ground.
•Air and fluid hoses: Use only flexible grounded
hoses with a maximum of 500 ft. (150 m) combined
hose length to ensure grounding continuity.
•Air compressor: Follow manufacturer’s
recommendations.
•Fluid supply container: 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 nonconductive surface, such as paper or
cardboard, which interrupts grounding continuity.
Check your system electrical continuity after the
initial installation, and then set up a regular schedule
for checking continuity to be sure proper grounding
is maintained.
Air Lines
1. Install an air regulator and gauge (C) to control
the fluid pressure. The fluid stall pressure will be
thesameasthesetting of the air regulator.
2. Locate a bleed-typemasterairvalve(B)closeto
the pump and use it to relieve trapped air. Be
sure the valve is easily accessible from the pump
and located downstream from the regulator.
Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle
unexpectedly, which could result in serious
injury from splashing.
3. Locate another master air valve (D) upstream
from all air line accessories and use it to isolate
them during cleaning and repair.
4. An air line filter (C) removes harmful dirt and
moisture from the compressed air supply.
5. Install a grounded, flexible air hose (A) between
the accessories and the 1/8 npt(f) or 1/8 bspt
pump air inlet. Use a hose with a minimum 1/4 in.
ID.Ifah
ose longer than 10 ft. (3 m) is required,
use a larger diameter hose.
10 334792E

Installation
Air Exhaust Ventilation
If pumping toxic fluids, you must vent the exhaust
away from people, animals, food handling areas,
and all sources of ignition. Follow all applicable
codes.
NOTE: Do not restrict the air exhaust port. Excessive
exhaust restriction can cause erratic pump operation.
To provide a remote exhaust:
1. Use Kit 17F610 (NPT) or 17F611 (BSPT), sold
separately.
2. Remove the muffler (U) from the pump air
exhaust port (K).
3. Install the adaptor from the kit.
4. Install a grounded air exhaust hose (S). If a hose
longer than 10 ft. (3 m) is required, use a larger
diameter hose. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in
the hose.
5. Place a container (T) at the end of the air exhaust
linetocatc
h fluid in case a diaphragm ruptures.
If the diaphragm ruptures, the fluid being pumped
will exhaust with the air.

334792E 11

Installation
Fluid Supply Line
1. Use grounded, flexible fluid hoses (E). See
Ground The System, page 10.
2. If the inlet fluid pressure to the pump is more
than 25% of the outlet working pressure, the
ball check valves will not close fast enough,
resulting in inefficient pump operation. Excessive
inlet fluid pressure also will shorten diaphragm
life. Approximately 3–5 psi (0.02–0.03 MPa,
0.21–0.34 bar) should be adequate for most
materials.
3. For maximum suction lift (wet and dry), see
Technical Data, page 29. For best results, always
install the pump as close as possible to the
material source. Minimize suction requirements
to maximize pump performance.
Fluid Outlet Line
1. Use grounded, flexible fluid hoses. See
Ground The System, page 10,
2. Install a fluid drain valve (F) near the fluid outlet.
3. Install a shutoff valve (G) in the fluid outlet line.

The soft plastic threads can be stripped easily.
3. Place the suction tube (if used) in fluid to be
pumped.
NOTE: If fluid inlet pressure to the pump is more
than 25% of outlet working pressure, the ball
check valves will not close fast enough, resulting
in inefficient pump operation.
NOTICE
Excessive fluid inlet pressure can reduce
diaphragm life.
4. Place the end of the fluid hose into an appropriate
container.
5. Close the fluid drain valve (F).
6. Back out the air regulator knob and open all
bleed-type master air valves.
7. If the fluid hose has a dispensing device, hold
it open.
8. Slowly increase air pressure with the air regulator
until the pump just starts to cycle. Allow the
pump to cycle slowly until all air is pushed out of
the lines and the pump is primed.
NOTE: Use lowest possible air pressure to prime,
just enough to cycle the pump. If the pump does
not prime as expected, turn air pressure DOWN.
9. If you are flushing, run the pump long enough to
thoroughly clean the pump and hoses.
10.Close the bleed-type master air valve.
