MOUNTING
The FLOJET G57C self-priming pump should be
mounted in a dry and adequately ventilated area. This
pump can be mounted several feet from the tank, above
or below the fluid level. For most applications, no more
than 4 feet above the fluid level is recommended. This is
not a submersible pump.
Secure Pump to desired fixture by inserting screws
through the rubber grommets in the baseplate of the
pump. Ports must be facing down. Contact factory for
mounting bracket and hardware options. Wall or rack
mounting is preferred.
HOSE CONNECTIONS
Liquid n - Use 3/8”, 1/2”, or 3/4” .D. reinforced hose or
equivalent. Avoid sharp bends that could restrict flow or
cause hose to collapse under vacuum.
Liquid Out - Use 3/8”, 1/2”, or 3/4” .D. reinforced hose for
discharge tube. 3/4” .D. hose must use 90° elbows when
using large muffler.
Air n - Make sure air regulator is set at zero. Use
reinforced 1/4” .D. hose. Connect “Air n” to air supply
fitting on regulator. f pumps are installed in an enclosed
area, it is recommended to connect a hose to the air
discharge port (exhaust) and vent air to atmosphere
(Requires small exhaust port PN# 20756103B not
included).
PLUMBING
Use a flexible hose to avoid excess stress on pump
ports. DO NOT crimp or kink hose. All hose should be
the same size as the pump port fittings.
All fittings and hose must be compatible with fluid being
pumped. t is recommended to use plastic fittings only.
The use of check valves in the plumbing system could
interfere with the priming ability of the pump. f
unavoidable, check valves in the pumping system must
have a cracking pressure of 2 PS or less.
Use a minimum 40 mesh strainer or filter in the tank or
pump inlet line to keep large foreign particles out of the
system.
Liquid inlet port must be equal to or larger than the liquid
outlet port.
OPERATION
At start-up, regulate air pressure to desired setting. For
most installations 20 PS (1.4 bar) inlet will be adequate,
although DO NOT go below 20 PS . Pump will operate
according to air supply. Flow and pressure can be
adjusted by increasing or decreasing air pressure to
accommodate varying product viscosities, length of lines
or other installation conditions. Review flow curves
located on page 1 for further assistance. High viscosity
fluids and hose length will limit priming distance.
IF PUMP IS T0 BE USED IN HIGH FLOW, LOW
PRESSURE APPLICATIONS, ADJUST AIR PRESSURE
TO 20 PSI (1.38 BAR) ABOVE DISCHARGE
PRESSURE.
CAUTION: DO NOT EXCEED 100 PSI (6.9 bar) AIR
INLET PRESSURE.
CONTINUOUS OPERATION ABOVE 120°F (48.9°C)
WILL REDUCE PUMP LIFE.
AIR MUST BE DRY AND OIL FREE.
Compressors must have dryers and/or a water separator
in the air distribution system. Pumps that fail due to water
in the air chamber will not be covered under the limited
warranty.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Protect yourself and others by observing all safety
information. Follow all safety codes and the
Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).

If used with C02or N2be sure the area is
well ventilated.
CAUTION:
Do not clean or service FLOJET pumps, hoses or valves
while the system is pressurized. Plastic air inlet ports do
not have a check valve. Prior to cleaning or servicing,
purge the pump by carefully tilting the pump so ports are
facing up and remove suction line from source. Turn air
off and disconnect air inlet line. (Standard brass air inlet
ports have a check valve).
PRE ENTI E MAINTENANCE TIPS
Tips to help prolong your pump’s life.
• f pumping liquid other than water, pump should be
flushed with water (if applicable) after every use.
• Before freezing conditions occur, pump must be liquid free.
• f mounting pump in an outdoor environment, shield
pump from environmental extremes (i.e. sunlight,
water from washdown spray, rain, etc.). Avoid high
heat and humid installations.
• When using an air compressor, use an inline air dryer
(PN# FJ520B) before the pump to limit water build-up.

G57C DISASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
First, remove inlet air line, muffler and suction/discharge line from
the pump. This is accomplished by using a flat-bladed screwdriver
to slide the retaining clips away from the air inlet, muffler and suc-
tion/discharge fittings and pulling the fittings away from the pump
body. Now remove the muffler by sliding the retaining clip away
from the muffler base and pulling the muffler out of the pump body.
Using a Phillips screw driver remove the seven (7) screws from the
front end cap followed by the (7) screws from the rear end cap. With
the front end cap facing up and the rear end cap facing down on
the workbench, position a flat bladed screw driver into the slot
located above the muffler port and just below the pad marked
Air/C02and lift off the front end cap. The rear end cap can be
removed by placing the flat bladed screwdriver under the fully
opened port retaining clip and lifting off.
Note the position of the suction and discharge valves before
removing them from the pump body. The first diaphragm is
removed from the pump shaft by unscrewing in a counter clockwise
direction. The second diaphragm is removed by placing the flat tip
of a screwdriver into the exposed slot at the end of the pump shaft
and unscrewing the diaphragm from the shaft. To remove the
flange housing, place the tip of the flat bladed screw driver into the
air bleed hole on the lower side of the flange housing and lift up the
lower end separating the flange housing from the pump body.
The slide valve assembly and pump shaft can be removed by sim-
ply pulling them from the pump body. The pump shaft then can be
removed from the slide valve yoke assembly.
REASSEMBLE PROCEDURE
Assemble the slide valve and pump shaft with the yoke placed
between the (2) bumpers on the pump shaft. nstall the slide
valve/pump shaft assembly into the pump body making sure the O-
rings in the slide valve are in place. To install the flange housing,
prelube the o-ring with Parker Super “O” Lube and install on flange
housing and place housing over the pump body aligning the flange
housing with the pump body ribs pressing it into place.
nstall the first diaphragm and O-ring on to the pump shaft by
threading on to shaft using a flat blade screwdriver to hold the
pump shaft until the diaphragm is tight. nstall the second
diaphragm and O-ring on to the pump shaft turning clockwise until
tight.
nstall the suction valves with springs facing into the pump body
and the discharge valves with the springs facing out. See arrows on
pump rear end cap below suction and discharge ports.
nstall the port retainer clips (large) into the pump end cap
(mounting base) and install the seven (7) Phillips screws into pump
body and cross tighten until snug and then cross torque to 22-24
inch pounds. nstall port retaining clips (small) into the pump body
with tabs facing out. Position the front end cap and install the seven
(7) Phillips screws into pump body and cross tighten until snug and
then cross torque to 22-24 inch pounds.
nstall the muffler in the center port by pushing it in and sliding the
retainer clip into place. nstall the suction and discharge ports and
the air inlet port fitting and slide the retainer clips in place. Check
for leaks.
