Safety Information
IMPORTANT
WARNING
When used for toxic or aggressive fluids, the pump should
always be flushed clean prior to disassembly.
Read the safety warnings and instructions in this manual
before pump installation and start-up. Failure to comply with
the recommendations stated in this manual could damage the
pump and void factory warranty.
Before maintenance or repair, shut off the compressed air line,
bleed the pressure, and disconnect the air line from the pump.
Be certain that approved eye protection and protective clothing
are worn at all times. Failure to follow these recommendations
may result in serious injury or death.
When the pump is used for materials that tend to settle out
or solidify, the pump should be flushed after each use to
prevent damage. In freezing temperatures the pump should be
completely drained between uses.
Airborne particles and loud noise hazards. Wear eye and ear
protection.
CAUTION
In the event of diaphragm rupture, pumped material may enter
the air end of the pump, and be discharged into the atmosphere.
If pumping a product that is hazardous or toxic, the air exhaust
must be piped to an appropriate area for safe containment.
Before pump operation, inspect all fasteners for loosening
caused by gasket creep. Retighten loose fasteners to prevent
leakage. Follow recommended torques stated in this manual.
Take action to prevent static sparking. Fire or explosion can
result, especially when handling flammable liquids. The pump,
piping, valves, containers and other miscellaneous equipment
must be properly grounded.
Nonmetallic pumps and plastic components are not UV
stabilized. Ultraviolet radiation can damage these parts and
negatively affect material properties. Do not expose to UV light
for extended periods of time.
This pump is pressurized internally with air pressure during
operation. Make certain that all fasteners are in good condition
and are reinstalled properly during reassembly.
WARNING
Pump not designed, tested or certified to be powered by
compressed natural gas. Powering the pump with natural
gas will void the warranty.
Use safe practices when lifting
kg
Grounding the Pump
To be fully groundable, the pumps must be ATEX Compliant. Refer to the nomenclature page for ordering information.
Optional 8 foot long (244 centimeters) Ground Strap is available for easy ground connection.
To reduce the risk of static electrical sparking, this pump must be grounded. Check the local
electrical code for detailed grounding instruction and the type of equipment required.
Refer to nomenclature page for ordering information.
WARNING
Take action to prevent static sparking.
Fire or explosion can result, especially
when handling flammable liquids. The
pump, piping, valves, containers or
other miscellaneous equipment must
be grounded.

Principle of Pump Operation
Air-Operated Double Diaphragm (AODD) pumps are powered
by compressed air or nitrogen.
The main directional (air) control valve ① distributes
compressed air to an air chamber, exerting uniform pressure
over the inner surface of the diaphragm ­②. At the same time,
the exhausting air ③ from behind the opposite diaphragm
is directed through the air valve assembly(s) to an exhaust
port ④.
The pump primes as a result of the suction stroke. The
suction stroke lowers the chamber pressure (P3) increasing
the chamber volume. This results in a pressure differential
necessary for atmospheric pressure (P4) to push the fluid
through the suction piping and across the suction side check
valve and into the outer fluid chamber ⑦.
PUMP INSTALLATION AREA
SAFE AIR
Suction (side) stroking also initiates the reciprocating
EXHAUST
(shifting, stroking or cycling) action of the pump.DISPOSAL
The suction
AREA its
diaphragm’s movement is mechanically pulled through
stroke.
1" DIAMETER
AIR The diaphragm’s inner plate makes contact with an
EXHAUST PIPING
actuator plunger aligned to shift the pilot signaling valve.
Once actuated, the pilot valve sends a pressureMUFFLER
signal to the
opposite end of the main directional air valve, redirecting the
compressed air to the opposite inner chamber.

Pump can be submerged if the pump materials of construction
are compatible with the liquid being pumped. The air exhaust
must be piped above the liquid level. When the MUFFLER
pumped product
source is at a higher level than the pump (flooded suction
condition), pipe the exhaust higher than the product source to
prevent siphoning spills.

2: INSTAL & OP
As inner chamber pressure (P1) exceeds liquid chamber
pressure (P2), the rod ⑤ connected diaphragms shift
together creating discharge on one side and suction on the
opposite side. The discharged and primed liquid’s directions
are controlled by the check valves (ball or flap)⑥ orientation.

diameter.
Air Supply
Connect the pump air inlet to an air supply with sufficient capacity and pressure to achieve desired performance. A pressure regulating valve should be installed to
insure air supply pressure does not exceed recommended limits.
Air Valve Lubrication
The air distribution system is designed to operate WITHOUT lubrication. This is the standard mode of operation. If lubrication is desired, install an air line lubricator
set to deliver one drop of SAE 10 non-detergent oil for every 20 SCFM (9.4 liters/sec.) of air the pump consumes. Consult the Performance Curve to determine air
consumption.
Air Line Moisture
Water in the compressed air supply may cause icing or freezing of the exhaust air, causing the pump to cycle erratically or stop operating. Water in the air supply can
be reduced by using a point-of-use air dryer.
Air Inlet And Priming
To start the pump, slightly open the air shut-off valve. After the pump primes, the air valve can be opened to increase air flow as desired. If opening the valve
increases cycling rate, but does not increase the rate of flow, cavitation has occurred. The valve should be closed slightly to obtain the most efficient air flow to pump
flow ratio.

Troubleshooting Guide
Pump Cycles Once
Pump Will Not Operate
/ Cycle
Pump Cycles and Will
Not Prime or No Flow
Potential Cause(s):
Deadhead (system pressure meets or exceeds air
supply pressure).
Air valve or intermediate gaskets installed incorrectly.
Bent or missing actuator plunger.
Pump is over lubricated.
Lack of air (line size, PSI, CFM).
Check air distribution system.
Discharge line is blocked or clogged manifolds.
Deadhead (system pressure meets or exceeds air
supply pressure).
Blocked air exhaust muffler.
Pumped fluid in air exhaust muffler.
Pump chamber is blocked.
Cavitation on suction side.
Check valve obstructed. Valve ball(s) not seating
properly or sticking.
Product Leaking
Through Exhaust
Valve ball(s) missing (pushed into chamber or
manifold).
Valve ball(s)/seat(s) damaged or attacked by product.
Check valve and/or seat is worn or needs adjusting.
Suction line is blocked.
Excessive suction lift.
Suction side air leakage or air in product.
Pumped fluid in air exhaust muffler.
Over lubrication.
Icing.
Clogged manifolds.
Deadhead (system pressure meets or exceeds air
supply pressure).
Cavitation on suction side.
Lack of air (line size, PSI, CFM).
Excessive suction lift.
Air supply pressure or volume exceeds system hd.
Undersized suction line.
Restrictive or undersized air line.
Suction side air leakage or air in product.
Suction line is blocked.
Pumped fluid in air exhaust muffler.
Check valve obstructed.
Check valve and/or seat is worn or needs adjusting.
Entrained air or vapor lock in chamber(s).
Diaphragm failure, or diaphragm plates loose.
Diaphragm stretched around center hole or bolt holes.
Premature Diaphragm
Failure
Cavitation.
Excessive flooded suction pressure.
Pump Cycles Running
Sluggish/Stalling,
Flow Unsatisfactory
Misapplication (chemical/physical incompatibility).
Unbalanced Cycling
Incorrect diaphragm plates or plates on backwards,
installed incorrectly or worn.
Excessive suction lift.
Undersized suction line.
Pumped fluid in air exhaust muffler.
Suction side air leakage or air in product.
Check valve obstructed.
Check valve and/or seat is worn or needs adjusting.
Entrained air or vapor lock in chamber(s).
Recommendation(s):
Increase the inlet air pressure to the pump. Pump is designed for 1:1 pressure ratio at zero flow.
(Does not apply to high pressure 2:1 units).
Install gaskets with holes properly aligned.
Remove pilot valve and inspect actuator plungers.
Set lubricator on lowest possible setting or remove. Units are designed for lube free operation.
Check the air line size and length, compressor capacity (HP vs. cfm required).
Disassemble and inspect main air distribution valve, pilot valve and pilot valve actuators.
Check for inadvertently closed discharge line valves. Clean discharge manifolds/piping.
Increase the inlet air pressure to the pump. Pump is designed for 1:1 pressure ratio at zero flow.
(Does not apply to high pressure 2:1 units).
Remove muffler screen, clean or de-ice, and re-install.
Disassemble pump chambers. Inspect for diaphragm rupture or loose diaphragm plate assembly.
Disassemble and inspect wetted chambers. Remove or flush any obstructions.
Check suction condition (move pump closer to product).
Disassemble the wet end of the pump and manually dislodge obstruction in the check valve pocket.
Clean out around valve ball cage and valve seat area. Replace valve ball or valve seat if damaged.
Use heavier valve ball material.
Worn valve ball or valve seat. Worn fingers in valve ball cage (replace part). Check Chemical
Resistance Guide for compatibility.
Check Chemical Resistance Guide for compatibility.
Inspect check valves and seats for wear and proper setting. Replace if necessary.
Remove or flush obstruction. Check and clear all suction screens or strainers.
For lifts exceeding 20’ of liquid, filling the chambers with liquid will prime the pump in most cases.
Visually inspect all suction-side gaskets and pipe connections.
Disassemble pump chambers. Inspect for diaphragm rupture or loose diaphragm plate assembly.
Set lubricator on lowest possible setting or remove. Units are designed for lube free operation.
Remove muffler screen, de-ice, and re-install. Install a point of use air drier.
Clean manifolds to allow proper air flow
Increase the inlet air pressure to the pump. Pump is designed for 1:1 pressure ratio at zero flow.
(Does not apply to high pressure 2:1 units).
Check suction (move pump closer to product).
Check the air line size, length, compressor capacity.
For lifts exceeding 20’ of liquid, filling the chambers with liquid will prime the pump in most cases.
Decrease inlet air (press. and vol.) to the pump. Pump is cavitating the fluid by fast cycling.
Meet or exceed pump connections.
Install a larger air line and connection.
Visually inspect all suction-side gaskets and pipe connections.
Remove or flush obstruction. Check and clear all suction screens or strainers.
Disassemble pump chambers. Inspect for diaphragm rupture or loose diaphragm plate assembly.
Disassemble the wet end of the pump and manually dislodge obstruction in the check valve pocket.
Inspect check valves and seats for wear and proper setting. Replace if necessary.
Purge chambers through tapped chamber vent plugs. Purging the chambers of air can be dangerous.
Replace diaphragms, check for damage and ensure diaphragm plates are tight.
Check for excessive inlet pressure or air pressure. Consult Chemical Resistance Chart for compatibility
with products, cleaners, temperature limitations and lubrication.
Enlarge pipe diameter on suction side of pump.
Move pump closer to product. Raise pump/place pump on top of tank to reduce inlet pressure.
Install Back pressure device (Tech bulletin 41r). Add accumulation tank or pulsation dampener.
Consult Chemical Resistance Chart for compatibility with products, cleaners, temperature limitations
and lubrication.
Check Operating Manual to check for correct part and installation. Ensure outer plates have not been
worn to a sharp edge.
For lifts exceeding 20’ of liquid, filling the chambers with liquid will prime the pump in most cases.
Meet or exceed pump connections.
Disassemble pump chambers. Inspect for diaphragm rupture or loose diaphragm plate assembly.
Visually inspect all suction-side gaskets and pipe connections.
Disassemble the wet end of the pump and manually dislodge obstruction in the check valve pocket.
Inspect check valves and seats for wear and proper setting. Replace if necessary.
