3.0. DIAPHRAGM PUMP DEFINITION
A Diaphragm pump works using compressed air coming from compressor. Pump working
principle is shown in the illustration below.
There are two valves distributing air in the pump. Outer valve is distributing the air to the
diaphragms. Inner air valve is rotating the outer valve.
Running a pump fast does not always mean working it most productively. If a pump
works at highest capacity continuously, it will have diaphragm and valve problems
sooner. It is advisable to choose a higher capacity pump and it should not be used at
maximum pressure for long periods.
Diaphragm pump is mounted on the ground or on a tripod from its legs with bolts.
Air operated diaphragm pumps are suitable for transferring fluids up to 50,000 cP viscosity.

5
RIGHT STROKE
Compressed air is directed to
the back side of diaphragm B
by the air valve. The
compressed air moves the
diaphragm away from the
center block. The compressed
air pushes the liquid column
separated by elastomeric
diaphragm, forcing the fluid
through the fluid outlet. At the
same time, the opposite
diaphragm is pulled in by the
shaft connected to the
pressurized diaphragm. So,
diaphragm A is on its suction
stroke: the air behind
diaphragm A is forced out to
the atmosphere through the
exhaust port of the pump. The
movement of diaphragm B
away from the center block of
the pump creates a vacuum
within chamber A. The vacuum
force sucks the fluid into the
inlet manifold forcing the inlet
valve ball off its seat. The fluid
is free to move past the inlet
valve ball and fill liquid
chamber A.
MIDDLE STROKE
When the pressurized
diaphragm, diaphragm B,
reaches the limit of its
discharge stroke, the air valve
redirects compressed air to
the back side of diaphragm A.
The pressurized air forces
diaphragm A away from the
center block while, at the
same time, the connected
shaft pulls diaphragm B to the
center block. Diaphragm A is
now on its discharge stroke.
Diaphragm A forces the inlet
valve ball onto its seat due to
the hydraulic forces
developed in the liquid
chamber and manifold of the
pump. These same hydraulic
forces lift the discharge valve
ball off its seat, while the
opposite discharge valve ball
is forced onto its seat, forcing
the fluid to flow through the
pump discharge. The
movement of diaphragm B
toward the center block of the
pump creates a vacuum
within liquid chamber B.
Atmospheric pressure forces
the fluid into the inlet manifold
of the pump. The inlet valve
ball is forced off its seat
allowing the fluid being
pumped to fill the liquid
chamber.
LEFT STROKE
At completion of the stroke,
the air valve again redirects
air to the back side of
diaphragm B, which starts
diaphragm A on its exhaust
stroke. As the pump
reaches its original starting
point, each diaphragm has
gone through one exhaust
and one discharge stroke.
This constitutes one
complete pumping cycle.
The pump may take several
cycles to completely prime
depending on the conditions
of the application

4.0. HANDLING, MOVING, OPENING THE PACKAGE OF DIAPHRAGM PUMP
Handle the pump from manifolds to move. Pumps are packed into carton boxes.
.
Figure 4 –Pump package.
Pump package must be at least 130 grams and produced from the kraft carton. It must be fully
covered with packaging separators.

5.0. MOUNTING AND CONNECTION OF DIAPHRAGM PUMP
A typical setup configuration is shown in figure 7. Further information and consultation on pump
setup can be provided by your Ran Pump distributor.
ALWAYS USE ORIGINAL RAN PUMP PARTS AND ACCESSORIES. FAILURE TO DO SO
WILL INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE
Pump should fixed firmly to the ground or platform and should be fitted in a perpendicular
position as shown in Figure 5. Never place the pump at an angle, lying on the ground or upside
down. The pump will not run correctly and check valves and diaphragms will wear out very
quickly due to constant dry running.
When installing the pump ensure that it is balanced correctly when using a lifting device.(Figure
5)
5.1. Mounting Pump
Keep the points below in mind when choosing the pump mounting place.
1- Easy access when operating or maintaining.
2- (Air valves, inlet and outlet manifolds of air and fluid, etc.)
3- Pump weight in relation to the ground/platform.
4- Vibration emission to the ground and other equipment.
Figure 6 –Minimum space requirement around the diaphragm pump.

9
5.2. Tightening the bolts before first use
After you unpack the pump, and before you use it for the first time, check and tighten external
fasteners. Tighten the fluid cover screws first, then the manifold screws. (Refer to Figure 7 for torque
figures). This keeps the manifolds from interfering with tightening the fluid covers.
After using a day check the fasteners again and adjust the torque if necessary. Recommended
frequency for tightening fasteners varies with pump usage, a general guideline is to retighten fasteners
everytwo months. (Refer to Figure 7 for torque figures).
Exhaust gas may contain dirtying materials. To avoid polluting your fluid container, place the exhaust
hose away from it. (Refer to Exhaust Air section. Item 5.6) Fasten the pump foot tightly to the platform
with bolts. Always use seals (teflon, etc) when connecting with bolts.

5.3. Compressed connection
A bleed-type master air valve is required in your system to relieve air trapped between this valve and
the pump. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury,
including splashing in the eyes or on the skin, injury from moving parts, or contamination from
hazardous fluids. See Fig. 7.
1- Refer to the Figure 8a for the connection scheme. Fix these accessories to the wall or to a
bracket. The air line feeding the accessories must be grounded.
2- Install a filter - regulator to the air line. Use a 5μ (micron) air filter. The pressure of
liquid outlet should be level to air regulator’s. Air line filter is for cleaning the dust and
humidity from the air coming out of the compressor.
3- Install an air discharge valve below the pump inlet air line. It will be used to discharge
remaining air in the pump. Install the main air valve above all air line accessories and use it
to cut off the main air from the accessories while maintaining or cleaning.
4- Use a flexible air hose between the pump air inlet and accessories at minimum 3/8 inch
(9,5 mm)inner diameter and not longer than 2 meters. For a hose longer than 2 m,
enlarge the inner diameter respectively.
5.4 Important poınts whie connecting compressed air to diaphragm pump
1- Pay attention not to let any object enter the pump before connecting to compressed air
system.
2- Before connecting to compressed air system, remove all the particles from the system using
blown air.
3- If the hose connections are sealed with teflon tape, wind the tape a few screw teeth before
the end of the connecting accessory to avoid any teflon pieces entering the system.
4- When using screw connections, note not to mis-screw or apply excessive power on the
screws.

5.5. Fluıd lıne
5.5.1. Fluid suction line
1- Use a conductive hose or pipe.
2- Screw fluid fitting into the pump inlet
tightly.
3- If the inlet fluid pressure is more than
25% of the outlet working pressure, ball
check valves will not close fast enough,
result will be inefficient pump operation.
4- At inlet fluid pressures greater than 15
psi (0.1MPa, 1 bar), diaphragm life will be
shortened.
5.5.2. Fluid discharge line
1- Use a conductive fluid hose or pipe. The
pump fluid outlet is 1”. (f).
2- Screw the fluid fitting into the pump
outlet securely.
3- Install a fluid drain valve at the pump
outlet.
4- Install a fluid shut off valve at the fluid
outlet.
Figure 8b-Example of Barrel Installation

Figure 8c - Bypass line installation
CAUTION!
Do not over tighten fittings that are used for connection to the pump.
Overtightening may damage the pump.
Caution. It is advisable to install a pressure relief system (bypass line)to
relieve high levels of pressure that may occur if the pump is pressurised for a
long period when not operating.
On some uncontrolled systems the back pressure generated from a closed
outlet hose can cause the pump to stop or even reverse operation. In this case
a pressure relief system (bypass line) MUST be installed.
When using long pipelines, that may be pumping cold fluid with hose placed
in a warmer area such as underground tank or buried underground, in
sunshine or near other heat sources the hose may be affected by thermal
expansion of the liquid, causing an increase in pressure. Hose rupture may
result. In this case, a pressure relief system (bypass line) must be installed.

12
5.6. Ventilating exhaust air
You must vent the exhaust to a safe place, away from people, animals, food, and all sources of
ignition when pumping flammable or hazardous fluids. Note that when there is a tear on the
diaphragm, the media in the pump will be exhausted together with the air. To avoid this exhaust
the gas away from the operation environment. The pump exhaust air may contain contaminants.
Ventilate to a remote area if the contaminants could affect your process.
The minimum size for the air exhaust hose should be ½” inch (12.7 mm). For an air hose longer
than 4.5 m, a larger diameter hose should be used. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the hose.
Figure 9 - Ventilating exhaust air
WARNING !
When you are transferring hazardous fluids or the pump
temperature is over 60C, operator has to make precautions to
drain the fluid.
WARNING !
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
If you are working with flammable fluids, be sure to take
precautions around the pump while cooling it. You must vent the
exhaust to a safe place
CAUTION !: In case of diaphragm rupture transferred fluid may exit through
the exhaust air line and dissipate into the environment. Place exhaust line in
container to collect exhausted fluid and avoid damage to human health and
the environment. A special exhaust cover can be obtained from the
manufacturer. Additionally the chemical properties of the fluid must be
considered when choosing a suitable container.

WARNING !
Diaphragm pumps are sold as pump unit only. Installing a
control device (if needed) is responsibility of the operator.
If the power supply of the pump (compressor) is stopped, the air
inlet to the pump must be cut off immediately. Otherwise when
compressor restarts, pump may start unexpectedly.
Manual operation: If the power supply of the pump
(compressor) is stopped, operator must cut off the air feed to
the pump manually. The operator must be informed and warned
about this.
Automatic operation: If the power supply of the pump
(compressor) is stopped, control unit must cut off the air feed to
the pump automatically. Installing this system is the
responsibility of the operator or the owner.
6.0. PUMP OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT NOTE
The pump has a variable temperature resistance to the transferred
fluid. The temperature resistance of the diaphragm, balls and ball
seats defines the temperature resistance of the pump.
6.1. Flush the pump before use
Pump is tested with water. Flush the pump with a proper solvent before use if your fluid is affected by
water. Follow the instructions in Starting and Adjusting the Pump.
6.2 Starting and adjusting the pump
1- Check pump grounding before use.
2- Check fittings to be sure they are tight. Use a compatible liquid thread sealant (teflon, etc.) on
male threads. Tighten fluid inlet and outlet fittings securely.
3- Submerge the suction hose in the fluid.
Note: If the inlet fluid pressure is more than 25% of the outlet working pressure, ball check
valves will not close fast enough, result will be inefficient pump operation.
4- Place discharge hose in a suitable container.
5- Turn off the fluid drainage valve.
6- Turn the air regulator knob three quarters of a cycle clockwise, and open all bleed-type master
air valves.
7- Increase the air pressure slowly using the air regulator untill the pump primes. Set air regulator
to 2 bar pressure. Operate the pump slowly until it is fully loaded.
8- Working with thick fluids, operate the pump very slowly until it is fully loaded.
9- Pump is tested with water. If you need a clean pump in your process, flush the pump with
suitable fluid until it is fully clean. Then place the suction hose in the fluid container to be
pumped.
WARNING !
Do not run the pump before you make sure all the
adjustments are OK.

14
6.3. Stopping the pump
Cut off the air when the pump is not working.
WARNING !
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
The equipment stays pressurized until pressure is manually relieved.
To reduce the risk of serious injury from pressurized fluid, accidental
spray from the gun or splashing fluid, follow Pressure Relief
Procedure whenever you
need to relieve pressure
stop pumping check, clean or service any system equipment.
6.4. Pressure relief procedure
1- Shut off the air valve. To relieve the air between the air valve and the pump, use the Air
Pressure Discharge Valve.
2- Shut off the Fluid Valve. Place a container under the Fluid Pressure Discharge Valve and open
the valve. Take the Fluid Discharge Hose off.
3- To discharge the fluid inside the pump follow the instructions below.
a- Put on proper safety equipment for the fluid you are pumping. Shut off the valve on the fluid
inlet hose if installed. Have a container ready to catch the drainage. Pull out the fluid inlet hose
from the manifold. Unravel it from the ground if fixed.
b- Before pulling out the hose from the pump put a container under the pump. Pull it out slowly
and carefully.
