REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
TORQUES NECESSARY FOR THE PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE PUMP
For proper operation of the pump and to prevent accidents which may
damage equipment and in the worst case, people, you must periodically
review the torques of the diaphragms covers and the DIRECTIONAL VALVE.
In the next table are shown the appropriate torques for this purpose:
CAUTION!: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN FASTENERS.
DIAPHRAGM MAINTENANCE
REPLACING THE DIAPHRAGM:
1. Close inlet and discharge fluid valves.
2. Drain the fluid inside the pump.
3. Remove the discharge manifold screws and lift the discharge manifold.
Remove the valve seats, o-ring (if applicable) and balls.
4. Invert the pump for remove de inlet manifold screws and lift the inlet
manifold. Remove the valve seats, o-ring (if applicable) and balls.

5. Remove the fluid cover screws and remove it by gently pulling back.
6. Remove the used diaphragm. For one-piece diaphragms unscrew by
pulling with the hand, in case of a diaphragm with outer piston (two
pieces) use an adjustable wrench.

7. Repeat the diaphragm removal process on the opposite side.
8.Install a new diaphragm, assembling it to the shaft by means of the
outer piston (two-piece diaphragm) or by means of the threaded bore
included in the diaphragm itself (one-piece diaphragm) as appropriate.
9.Then replace the fluid cover with the respective screws and tighten the
corresponding torque (tightening torque 120 Nm (88.5 ft lbs).

ASSEMBLING PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Follow next procedure to ensure the diaphragms are
correctly installed. If not followed diaphragm bead could be
extruded out of its housing with the resulting damage over the
diaphragm bead and thus possible fluid leaks or premature
diaphragm failure.

10.Repeat points 8 and 9 on the opposite side (installation of new
diaphragm and fitting of cover on opposite side).
11.Reinstall the inlet manifold including valve seats, gaskets (if applicable)
and balls. Tighten the manifold with the bolts (progressively tighten
with the bolts before final tightening) torque 120 Nm (88.5 ft lbs).

WARNING !
1. Correct assembly of the
diaphragm before the
diaphragm cover assembly.
Follow the procedure for replacing the diaphragm up to point 7, then
proceed as follows:
1. Remove air cover screws.
2. Lift away the air cover from the central body.
3. Now the bushing and seals can be replaced. Clean the area and
apply lubricate.
4. Fit the remaining components in reverse order.
5.Repeat the process on the opposite side of
the pump.
