Operation
Pressure Relief Procedure
NOTE: Do not close the main air valve until Step 6. The
Enclosed Air Controls will not operate when the main air
supply is in the Off position.
1. Enclosed Air Controls: See F
IG. 3. Turn the air
motor switch (BF) to off.
Exposed Air Controls: See F
IG. 3. Close the air
motor slider valve (BF).
2. Back the ram director air regulator down to zero. Set
the ram director switch/valve (BC) to DOWN. The
ram will slowly drop.
3. Jog the director valve up and down to bleed air from
ram cylinders.
4. Turn the inflatable seal switch (BJ) to off.
5. Open the fluid ball valve and/or dispensing valve to
relieve fluid pressure.
6. Close the main air valve (BA).
Flush Before First Use
The sanitary pump was assembled using sanitary lubri-
cant on moving parts and was tested in water. Flush the
pump thoroughly with an appropriate cleaning solution
or disassemble and sanitize the parts before using the
pump. See your separate pump manual for complete
flushing and cleaning procedures for a sanitary pump.
Check national, state, and local codes for specific
limitations.
Setting Inflatable Seal Pressure
1. Set an empty drum on the ram base. Set the direc-
tor valve (BC) to DOWN. Lower the seal into the
drum to the point of the drum’s largest inside diame-
ter.
2. Set the inflatable seal switch (BJ) to On. Adjust the
seal air regulator until the seal just touches the
inside of the drum.
3. Leave regulator set at this setting for this style of
drum.
4. Set the inflatable seal switch to Off to deflate seal
before raising the ram. Set the director valve (BC) to
UP and let the ram rise to its full height.
5. Remove the empty drum.
NOTE: Use the lowest seal pressure possible to achieve
desired results. Excessive seal pressure may cause the
seal to roll off of the follower plate. To prevent overpres-
surization, a relief valve limits seal pressure to 30 psi
(2.1 bar, 0.21 MPa).
Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle
unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury
from injection, splashing or moving parts. Relieve
pressure when you stop pumping and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment.
