PRINCIPLE OF PUMP OPERATIONThis ball type check valve pump is
powered by compressed air and is a 1:1ratio design. The inner side of onediaphragm chamber is alternatelypressurized while simultaneouslyexhausting the other inner chamber. Thiscauses the diaphragms, which areconnected by a common rod securedby plates to the centers of thediaphragms, to move in a reciprocatingaction. (As one diaphragm performs thedischarge stroke the other diaphragmis pulled to perform the suction strokein the opposite chamber.) Air pressureis applied over the entire inner surfaceof the diaphragm while liquid isdischarged from the opposite side of thediaphragm. The diaphragm operates ina balanced condition during thedischarge stroke which allows the pumpto be operated at discharge heads over200 feet (61 meters) of water.
For maximum diaphragm life, keepthe pump as close to the liquid beingpumped as possible. Positive suctionhead in excess of 10 feet of liquid(3.048 meters) may require a backpressure regulating device to maximizediaphragm life.
Alternate pressurizing andexhausting of the diaphragm chamberis performed by an externally mounted,pilot operated, four way spool type airdistribution valve. When the spool shiftsto one end of the valve body, inletpressure is applied to one diaphragmchamber and the other diaphragmchamber exhausts. When the spool
shifts to the opposite end of the valvebody, the pressure to the chambers isreversed. The air distribution valve spoolis moved by a internal pilot valve whichalternately pressurizes one end of theair distribution valve spool whileexhausting the other end. The pilot valveis shifted at each end of the diaphragmstroke when a actuator plunger iscontacted by the diaphragm plate. Thisactuator plunger then pushes the end ofthe pilot valve spool into position toactivate the air distribution valve.
The chambers are connected withmanifolds with a suction and dischargecheck valve for each chamber,maintaining flow in one direction throughthe pump.
INSTALLATION AND START-UPLocate the pump as close to the
product being pumped as possible. Keepthe suction line length and number offittings to a minimum. Do not reduce thesuction line diameter.
For installations of rigid piping, shortsections of flexible hose should beinstalled between the pump and thepiping. The flexible hose reducesvibration and strain to the pumpingsystem. A surge suppressor isrecommended to fur ther reducepulsation in flow.
AIR SUPPLYAir supply pressure cannot exceed
100 psi (7 bar). Connect the pump airinlet to an air supply of sufficientcapacity and pressure required fordesired performance. When the air
supply line is solid piping, use a shortlength of flexible hose not less than1/2" (13mm) in diameter between thepump and the piping to reduce strain tothe piping. The weight of the air supplyline, regulators and filters must besupported by some means other thanthe air inlet cap. Failure to providesupport for the piping may result indamage to the pump. A pressureregulating valve should be installed toinsure air supply pressure does notexceed recommended limits.
AIR VALVE LUBRICATIONThe air distribution valve and the pilot
valve are designed to operate WITHOUTlubrication. This is the preferred modeof operation. There may be instances ofpersonal preference or poor quality airsupplies when lubrication of thecompressed air supply is required. Thepump air system will operate withproperly lubricated compressed airsupply. Proper lubrication requires theuse of an air line lubricator (available fromWarren Rupp) set to deliver one drop ofSAE 10 non-detergent oil for every 20SCFM (9.4 liters/sec.) of air the pumpconsumes at the point of operation.Consult the pump’s publishedPerformance Curve to determine this.
AIR LINE MOISTUREWater in the compressed air supply
can create problems such as icing orfreezing of the exhaust air, causing thepump to cycle erratically or stopoperating. Water in the air supply can bereduced by using a point-of-use air dryer
to supplement the user’s air dryingequipment. This device removes waterfrom the compressed air supply andalleviates the icing or freezing problems.
AIR INLET AND PRIMINGTo start the pump, open the air valve
approximately 1/2" to 3/4" turn. After thepump primes, the air valve can beopened to increase air flow as desired.If opening the valve increases cyclingrate, but does not increase the rate offlow, cavitation has occurred. The valveshould be closed slightly to obtain themost efficient air flow to pump flow ratio.
BETWEEN USESWhen the pump is used for materials
that tend to settle out or solidify whennot in motion, the pump should be flushedafter each use to prevent damage.(Product remaining in the pump betweenuses could dry out or settle out. This couldcause problems with the diaphragms andcheck valves at restart.) In freezingtemperatures the pump must becompletely drained between uses in allcases.
TROUBLESHOOTINGPossible Symptoms:• Pump will not cycle.• Pump cycles, but produces no flow.• Pump cycles, but flow rate is
unsatisfactory.• Pump cycle seems unbalanced.• Pump cycle seems to produce
excessive vibration.
What to Check: Excessive suction liftin system.Corrective Action: For lifts exceeding20 feet (6 meters), filling the pumpingchambers with liquid will prime the pumpin most cases.
What to Check: Excessive floodedsuction in system.Corrective Action: For floodedconditions exceeding 10 feet (3 meters)of liquid, install a back pressure device.
What to Check: System head exceedsair supply pressure.Corrective Action: Increase the inlet airpressure to the pump. Most diaphragmpumps are designed for 1:1 pressureratio at zero flow.
What to Check: Air supply pressure orvolume exceeds system head.Corrective Action: Decrease inlet airpressure and volume to the pump ascalculated on the publishedPERFORMANCE CURVE. Pump iscavitating the fluid by fast cycling.
What to Check: Undersized suction line.Corrective Action: Meet or exceedpump connection recommendationsshown on the DIMENSIONALDRAWING.
What to Check: Restricted or undersizedair line.Corrective Action: Install a larger air lineand connection. Refer to air inletrecommendations shown in your pump’sSERVICE MANUAL.
What to Check: Check ESADS, theExternally Serviceable Air DistributionSystem of the pump.Corrective Action: Disassemble andinspect the main air distribution valve,pilot valve and pilot valve actuators.Refer to the parts drawing and air valvesection of the SERVICE MANUAL.Check for clogged discharge or closedvalve before reassembly.
What to Check: Rigid pipe connectionsto pump.Corrective Action: Install flexibleconnectors and a surge suppressor.
What to Check: Blocked air exhaustmuffler.Corrective Action: Remove mufflerscreen, clean or de-ice and reinstall.Refer to the Air Exhaust section of yourpump SERVICE MANUAL.
What to Check: Pumped fluid in airexhaust muffler.Corrective Action: Disassemble pumpchambers. Inspect for diaphragm ruptureor loose diaphragm plate assembly. Referto the Diaphragm Replacement sectionof your pump SERVICE MANUAL.What to Check: Suction side air leakageor air in product.Corrective Action: Visually inspect allsuction side gaskets and pipeconnections.
What to Check: Obstructed checkvalve.Corrective Action: Disassemble the wetend of the pump and manually dislodgeobstruction in the check valve pocket.Refer to the Check Valve section of thepump SERVICE MANUAL fordisassembly instructions.
What to Check: Worn or misalignedcheck valve or check valve seat.Corrective Action: Inspect check valvesand seats for wear and proper seating.Replace if necessary. Refer to CheckValve section of the pump SERVICEMANUAL for disassembly instructions.
What to Check: Blocked suction line.Corrective Action: Remove or flushobstruction. Check and clear all suctionscreens and strainers.
What to Check: Blocked discharge line.Corrective Action: Check for obstructionor closed discharge line valves.
What to Check: Blocked pumpingchamber.Corrective Action: Disassemble andinspect the wetted chambers of thepump. Remove or flush any obstructions.Refer to the pump SERVICE MANUALfor disassembly instructions.
What to Check: Entrained air or vaporlock in one or both pumping chambers.Corrective Action: Purge chambersthrough tapped chamber vent plugs.PURGING THE CHAMBERS OF AIRCAN BE DANGEROUS! Contact theWarren Rupp Technical ServicesDepartment before performing thisprocedure. A model with top-porteddischarge will reduce or eliminateproblems with entrained air.

SOLENOID SHIFTED AIRDISTRIBUTION VALVE OPTIONWarren Rupp’s solenoid shifted, airdistribution valve option utilizes electricalsignals to precisely control yourSandPIPER’s speed. The solenoid coilis connected to a customer - suppliedcontrol. Compressed air provides thepumping power, while electrical signalscontrol pump speed (pumping rate).
OPERATIONThe Solenoid Shifted SandPIPER hasa solenoid operated, air distribution valvein place of the standard SandPIPER’spilot operated, air distribution valve.Where a pilot valve is normally utilizedto cycle the pump’s air distribution valve,an electric solenoid is utilized. As thesolenoid is powered, one of the pump’sair chambers is pressurized while theother chamber is exhausted. Whenelectric power is turned off, the solenoidshifts and the pressurized chamber isexhausted while the other chamber ispressurized. By alternately applying andremoving power to the solenoid, thepump cycles much like a standardSandPIPER pump, with one exception.This option provides a way to preciselycontrol and monitor pump speed.
BEFORE INSTALLATIONBefore wiring the solenoid, make certainit is compatible with your systemvoltage.

Read these instructionscompletely, before in-stallation and start-up. Itis the responsibility ofthe purchaser to retain
this manual for reference. Failure tocomply with the recommendations statedin this manual will damage the pump, andvoid factory warranty.
PUMPING HAZARDOUS LIQUIDSWhen a diaphragm fails, the pumped
liquid or fumes enter the air end of thepump. Fumes are exhausted into thesurrounding environment. When pumpinghazardous or toxic materials, theexhaust air must be piped to anappropriate area for safe disposal. Seeillustration #1 at right.
This pump can be submerged if thepump materials of construction arecompatible with the liquid being pumped.The air exhaust must be piped abovethe liquid level. See illustration #2 atright. Piping used for the air exhaust mustnot be smaller than 1/2" (1.27 cm)diameter. Reducing the pipe size willrestrict air flow and reduce pumpperformance. When the pumped productsource is at a higher level than the pump(flooded suction condition), pipe theexhaust higher than the product sourceto prevent siphoning spills. Seeillustration #3 at right.
CONVERTING THE PUMP FORPIPING THE EXHAUST AIR
The following steps are necessary toconvert the pump to pipe the exhaustair away from the pump.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to removethe four self-tapping screws (item 1-H).
Remove the muffler cap and muffler(items 1-G and 1-F). The 3/8" NPTmolded threads in the air distributionvalve body (item 1-A).
Piping or hose may now be installed.
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTE:The manufacturer recommends installinga flexible hose or connection betweenthe pump and any rigid plumbing. Thisreduces stresses on the molded plasticthreads of the air exhaust port. Failure todo so may result in damage to the airdistribution valve body.
Any piping or hose connected to thepump’s air exhaust por t must bephysically supported. Failure to supportthese connections could also result indamage to the air distribution valve body.
PULSE OUTPUT KIT OPTIONThis pump can be fitted with a Pulse Output Kit. This converts the mechanical
strokes of the pump to an electrical signal which interfaces with the RuppTech™Stroke Counter/ Batch Controller or user control devices such as a PLC.
The Pulse Output Kits mount directly onto the Muffler Cap on the Air DistributionValve Assembly or onto the Air Distribution Valve Assembly when the threadedexhaust port or an auxiliary muffler is being used.
See the individual kits listed on the Pump Repair Parts List for further information.
