Installation
3A6831A 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 in the order
shown in FIG. 1, using adapters as necessary.
Pneumatic Line
•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 regulator.
•Pump pneumatic regulator (E): to control pump
speed and outlet pressure. Locate it close to the
pump.
•Pneumatic line filter (C): removes harmful dirt and
moisture from compressed air/gas supply.
•Second bleed-type pneumatic valve (pneumatic
shutoff valve) (B): isolates pneumatic line acces-
sories 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 11.
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.

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
pneumatic needle valve (B) are the only components in
FIG. 1 supplied by Graco. All other components are sup-
plied 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 any 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).

Connect Pneumatic Supply
1. Install the pneumatic regulator (E) and gauge to
control the inlet pressure. See Models on page 3for
your model’s maximum pneumatic pressure.
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 plunger size (see
Minimum Pneumatic Pressures by Fluid Plunger
Size and Outlet Pressures on page 10). Next, using
the column that corresponds to the pneumatic motor
size, find the row equal to or slightly greater than the
outlet pressure of the pump. The value is the Minimum
Pneumatic Pressure required to achieve the fluid outlet
pressure.
2. Install a pneumatic line filter (C) to keep debris from
affecting pump performance and to increase pump
life.
NOTE: Keep the needle valve (B) closed at this point to
keep the pump from operating without fluid, which mini-
mizes seal wear.
3. Attach a pneumatic line to the 1/4 in. female NPT
port on the needle 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 fluid pressure relief valve (J) on the outlet
side of the pump.
NOTE: A pressure relief valve is available 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 35.
3. 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 reduce the
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.
