Grounding
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
This pump must be grounded. Before
operating the pump, ground the system
as explained at right. Also read the sec-
tion FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
on page 3.
The acetal pump contains stainless steel fibers,
which makes the wetted parts conductive.
Attaching the ground wire to the grounding strip
grounds the air motor and the wetted parts.
When pumping conductive flammable fluids,
always ground the entire fluid system by making
sure the fluid system has an electrical path to a
true earth ground.
US Code (NFPA 77 Static Electricity) recommends
a conductivity greater than 50 x 10–12 Siemans/me-
ter (mhos/meter) over your operating temperature
range to reduce the hazard of fire. Consult your
fluid supplier to determine the conductivity or
resistivity of your fluid. The resistivity must be less
than 2 x 1012 ohm-centimeters.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the pump
and all other equipment used or located in the pumping
area. Check your local electrical code for detailed
grounding instructions for your area and type of equip-
ment.
Ground all of this equipment:
DPump: Attach a ground wire (Y) to the grounding
strip (112) with the screw (28), lockwasher (29) and
nut (27), as shown in Fig. 1. Connect the clamp end
of the ground wire to a true earth ground. Order

DAir and fluid hoses: Use only electrically conductive
hoses.
DAir compressor: Follow the manufacturer’s recom-
mendations.
DSolvent pails used when flushing: Follow your local
code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive.
Do not place the pail on a non-conductive surface,
such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts the
grounding continuity.
DFluid supply container: Follow your local code.

Installation
Air Line
A bleed-type master air valve (B) 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.
WARNING
CAUTION
The pump exhaust air may contain contaminants.
Ventilate to a remote area if the contaminants
could affect your fluid supply. See Air Exhaust
Ventilation on page 8.
1. Install the air line accessories. Mount these
accessories on the wall or on a bracket. Be sure
the air line supplying the accessories is grounded.
a. The fluid pressure can be controlled in either
of two ways. To control it on the air side, install
an air regulator (H). To control it on the fluid
side, install a fluid regulator (M) near the pump
fluid outlet.
b. Locate one bleed-type master air valve (B)
close to the pump and use it to relieve trapped
air. See the WARNING above. Locate the
other master air valve (E) upstream from all air
line accessories and use it to isolate them
during cleaning and repair.
c. The air line filter (F) removes harmful dirt and
moisture from the compressed air supply.
2. Install an electrically conductive, flexible air hose
(C) between the accessories and the 1/4 npt(f)
pump air inlet. Use a minimum 1/4” (6.3 mm) ID air
hose. Screw an air line quick disconnect coupler
(D) onto the end of the air hose (C), and screw the
mating fitting into the pump air inlet snugly. Do not
connect the coupler (D) to the fitting yet.
Fluid Suction Line
DThe pump fluid inlet is 3/8 npt(f). See Fig. 2.
Screw the fluid fitting into the pump inlet snugly.
Use a compatible liquid thread sealant or R
tape on connections to prevent air from getting into
material line.
DAt inlet fluid pressures greater than 15 psi (0.1
MPa,1 bar), diaphragm life will be shortened.
DSee the Technical Data on page 26 for maximum
suction lift and flow rate loss at various lift dis-
tances.
Fluid Outlet Line
WARNING
A fluid drain valve (J) is required in your system to
relieve pressure in the hose if it is plugged. The
drain valve reduces the risk of serious injury,
including splashing in the eyes or on the skin, or
contamination from hazardous fluids when relieving
pressure. Install the valve close to the pump fluid
outlet.
DUse electrically conductive fluid hoses (N). The
pump fluid outlet is 3/8 npt(f). See Fig. 2. Screw the
fluid fitting into the pump outlet snugly.
DInstall a fluid regulator (M) at the pump fluid outlet
to control fluid pressure, if desired. See Air Line,
step 1a, for another method of controlling pressure.
DInstall a fluid drain valve (J) near the fluid outlet.
See the WARNING above.

Installation
Fluid Pressure Relief Valve
CAUTION
Some systems may require installation of a pres-
sure relief valve at the pump outlet to prevent
overpressurization and rupture of the pump or
hose. See Fig. 2.
Thermal expansion of fluid in the outlet line can
cause overpressurization. This can occur when
using long fluid lines exposed to sunlight or ambi-
ent heat, or when pumping from a cool to a warm
area (for example, from an underground tank).
Overpressurization can also occur if the herkules
pump is being used to feed fluid to a piston pump,
and the intake valve of the piston pump does not
close, causing fluid to back up in the outlet line.
Connect fluid outlet line here.

Air Exhaust Ventilation
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Be sure to read FIRE OR EXPLOSION
HAZARD and TOXIC FLUID HAZARD
on page 3, before operating this pump.
Be sure the system is properly ventilated
for your type of installation. You must
vent the exhaust to a safe place, away
from people, animals, food handling
areas, and all sources of ignition when
pumping flammable or hazardous fluids.
Diaphragm failure will cause the fluid being
pumped to exhaust with the air. Place an appropri-
ate container at the end of the air exhaust line to
catch the fluid. See Fig. 3.
WARNING
The air exhaust port is 3/8 npt(f). Do not restrict the air
exhaust port. Excessive exhaust restriction can cause
erratic pump operation.
To exhaust to a remote location:
1. Remove the muffler (11) from the pump air
exhaust port.
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
To reduce the risk of serious eye injury
from ice particles, never operate the
pump with the air exhaust port open. Ice
may form during pump operation, and ice particles
will be ejected from the port along with the exhaust
air. If the muffler (11) is removed, always connect
an air exhaust hose to the exhaust port.
WARNING
2. Install an electrically conductive air exhaust hose
(X) and connect the muffler to the other end of the
hose. The minimum size for the air exhaust hose
is 3/8 in. (10 mm) ID. If a hose longer than 15 ft
(4.57 m) is required, use a larger diameter hose.
Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the hose.
3. Place a container (Z) at the end of the air exhaust
line to catch fluid in case a diaphragm ruptures. If
the fluid is flammable, ground the container. See
Fig. 3.

tape on all male threads. Tighten the fluid inlet and
outlet fittings snugly. Do not overtighten the fittings
into the pump.
3. Place the suction tube (if used) in the fluid to be
pumped.
4. Place the end of the fluid hose (N) into an
appropriate container. Close the fluid drain valve
(J).
5. With the pump air regulator (H) closed, open all
bleed-type master air valves (B, E).
6. If the fluid hose has a dispensing device, hold it
open while continuing with the following step.
Slowly open the air regulator (H) until the pump
starts to cycle. Allow the pump to cycle slowly until
all air is pushed out of the lines and the pump is
primed.
