EVOLVE 55E PUMP OPERATION / MAINTENANCE MANUAL

START-UP
Pump air supply pressure must be regulated. (See Figure 3-2: Pressure vs. Fluid
Open the fluid suction (IN) line valve, if necessary.
Open the fluid discharge (OUT) line valve, if necessary.
Program external control to desired settings
Start slowly with air regulator at low (> 20 psi) pressure setting. Increase pressure to
attain desired flow, up to the maximum rating (See Section 3.1).
Refer to Troubleshooting, Section 5, if pump fails to start.
ATTENTION: Prolonged periods (> 5 minutes)
of dry running can damage critical internal
pump parts.
CAUTION: When handling potentially dangerous fluids under pressure, the pump
and its fittings should be placed in an enclosure away from operators.
3.1 PERFORMANCE CHARTS
Pumping capacity is a function of air supply pressure and volume, suction head, suction line
restrictions, discharge head, discharge line restriction, and fluid specific gravity and
viscosity.
NOTE: The following chart is for specification to be used to size system.
