Air Line Accessories
I
nstall the following accessories in the order
shown in the Typical Installation for Lubrica-
tion Applications, using adapters as neces-
sary:
An air line lubricator (AB) provides automatic
air motor lubrication.
A bleed-type master air valve (AD) is
required in your system to relieve air trapped
between it and the air motor when the valve is
closed (see the WARNING on left). Be sure
the bleed valve is easily accessible from the
pump, and is located downstream from the air
regulator.
An air line filter (AC) to remove harmful dirt
and moisture from the compressed air supply.
A second bleed-type air valve (AD) isolates
the air line accessories for servicing. Locate
upstream from all other air line accessories.
Fluid Line Accessories
A fluid drain valve (AE) is required in your
system to relieve fluid pressure in the hose
and gun (see the WARNING on left). Install the
drain valve so that it points down and the han-
dle points up when the valve is opened.
A bleed-type master air valve (AD) and a fluid
drain valve (AE) are required in your system,
to help reduce the risk of serious injury,
including splashing fluid in the eyes or on the
skin, and injury from moving parts when you
are adjusting or repairing the pump.
The bleed-type master air valve (AD) relieves
air trapped between this valve and the pump
after the pump is shut off. Trapped air can
cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly and
result in serious injury, including amputation.
Install the valve close to the pump.
The fluid drain valve (AE) helps relieve pres-
sure in the displacement pump, hose, and dis-
pensing valve when shutting off the pump.
Actuating the dispensing valve to relieve pres-
sure may not be sufficient, especially if there
is a clog in the hose or the dispensing valve.
To ensure maximum pump perfor-
mance, be sure that all accessories
used are properly sized to meet your
system’s requirements.
