Mounting
Rubber Foot Mounting Kit 236452 is available to reduce
noise and vibration during operation (purchase
separately).
1. Ensure that the mounting surface is level and can
support the weight of the equipment, lines, and
accessories, as well as the stress caused during
operation.
2. Mount the equipment on a level surface and secure
the equipment to the mounting surface. For all
mountings, ensure that the equipment is bolted
directly to the mounting surface. See Dimensions,
page 31, for dimensions of the mounting holes for
your equipment.
NOTE: For ease of operation and service, mount
the equipment so the air valve cover, air inlet, and
fluid inlet and outlet ports are easily accessible.
Air Exhaust Ventilation
NOTE: The air exhaust port is 3/4 npt(f). Do not restrict
the air exhaust port. Excessive exhaust restriction can
reduce equipment performance.
To provide a remote exhaust:
1. Remove the muffler (P) from the air exhaust port.
See FIG. 3.
2. Install a conductive, grounded air exhaust line (T)
and connect the muffler (P) to the other end of the
line. The minimum size for the air exhaust line is
3/4 in. (19 mm) inner-diameter. If a line longer than
15 ft (4.57 m) is required, use a larger diameter line.
Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the line.
3. Place a conductive, grounded container (U) at the
end of the air exhaust line to catch fluid in case of a
diaphragm rupture. See FIG. 3.
The equipment is heavy (see Technical
Specifications for specific weights). If the equipment
must be moved, follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure, page 12, and have two people lift the
equipment by grasping the outlet manifold securely,
or use appropriate lifting equipment to lift by the outlet
manifold. Never have one person move or lift the
equipment.
Be sure the system is properly ventilated for your type
of installation. Exhaust must be vented to a safe
place, away from people, animals, food handling
areas, and all sources of ignition when pumping
flammable or hazardous fluids. Diaphragm rupture
can cause the fluid being pumped to exhaust with the
air. Place a grounded container at the end of the air
exhaust line to catch the fluid. See FIG. 3.

Accessories
Install the following accessories in the order shown in
FIG. 1, using adapters as necessary.
Air Line
•Bleed-type master air valve (B): required in your
system to relieve air trapped between it and the air
motor when the valve is closed.
Be sure the valve is easily accessible from the
equipment and located downstream from the air
regulator.
•Air regulator (C): to control pump speed and fluid
outlet pressure. Locate it close to the equipment.
•Air line filter (F): removes harmful dirt and moisture
from compressed air supply.
•Master bleed-type air valve (E): isolates air line
accessories for servicing. Locate upstream from all
other air line accessories.
1. Install the air line accessories as shown in FIG. 1.
Verify that the air line supplying the accessories is
grounded.
2. Install a conductive, flexible air line (A) between the
accessories and the 3/4 npt(f) air inlet (N). Use a
minimum 1/2 in. (13 mm) inner-diameter air line.
Fluid Supply and Outlet Lines
•Fluid drain valve (J): required in your system,
relieves fluid pressure in the fluid line.
•Fluid pressure relief valve (V): relieves fluid
pressure in the fluid line. See FIG. 5.
•Fluid shutoff valve (K): shuts off fluid flow.
1. Install flexible, conductive fluid lines (G and L).
2. Install a fluid drain valve (J) in the fluid outlet line (L)
close to the fluid outlet. See FIG. 1.
3. Install a fluid shutoff valve (K) in the fluid outlet line
(L) downstream from the fluid drain valve (J).
4. If needed, install a fluid pressure relief valve (V).
See Fluid Pressure Relief Valve, page 11.
NOTE: For best results, always install the pump as
close as possible to the material source. See the
Technical Specifications, page 32, for maximum
suction lift (wet and dry).
A bleed-type master air valve (B) is required in the
system to relieve air trapped between this valve and
the equipment. Trapped air can cause the equipment
to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious
injury, including splashing in the eyes or on the skin.
See FIG. 1.
A fluid drain valve (J) is required to relieve pressure in
the fluid outlet line. The drain valve reduces the risk of
serious injury, including splashing in the eyes or on
the skin, when relieving pressure.
NOTICE

Tips to Reduce Cavitation
Cavitation in a diaphragm 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,
flappers, 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 lines.
Remember that fittings add friction length to the
lines. Reduce the number of fittings to reduce
the friction length.
c. Increase the diameter of the suction lines.
d. Ensure the inlet fluid pressure does not exceed
25% of the outlet working pressure.
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 of the above factors into
account in system design. To maintain pump efficiency,
supply only enough air to the pump to achieve the
required flow.
Graco distributors can supply site-specific suggestions
to improve pump performance and reduce operating
costs.

Some systems may require installation of a pressure
relief valve (V) at the pump outlet to prevent
overpressurization and rupture of the pump or hose.
Thermal expansion of fluid in the outlet line can cause
overpressurization. Thermal expansion can occur
when using long fluid lines exposed to sunlight or
ambient heat, or when pumping from a cool to a warm
area (for example, from an underground tank).
Overpressurization also can occur if the pump is used
to feed fluid to a piston pump, and the intake valve of
the piston pump does not close, causing fluid to back
up in the outlet line.
The pressure relief valve reduces the risk of serious
injury, including splashing in the eyes or on the skin.
