RUNYON SURFACE PREP GP-1 Dual Component Poly Pump
Warnings! These instructions are only intended to show you the set-up of our pump. Do not use until you have been trained on how to properly operate a polyurea pump.
- Wear appropriate safety gear when operating this pump
- Always use the same tanks with similar chemicals. Mixing materials will cause curing inside of the tanks, pumps, and hoses
- Store pump properly according to guidelines
Pump Features
Pump Control Features:
Familiarize yourself with the pump prior to use
- Power Switches: Every unit is equipped with two on/off switches. Ensure both switches are off prior to connecting to power.
- The Main Power Switch ( fig. 1 ) is located on the main power line coming from the power source and will turn on electronic controls.
- The Dispensing Wand Switch ( fig. 2 red arrow ) is located on the handle of the dispensing wand and turns on the motor and speed control.
- Speed Control: ( fig. 2. yellow arrow )
- This unit is programmed for soft starting to ensure smooth operation and dispensing of material, which means it will take several seconds to achieve maximum speed.
- We recommend turning the speed control knob all the way counter clockwise to the O throttle position prior to first use.
- To increase dispensing rate, turn speed control knob clockwise.
Pump Set Up
Filling Pump:
- Read the manufacturer’s safety data sheet and instructions for the material you will be using.
- Mix components according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- After mixing components, pour Part A into Part A tank, and then, pour Part B into Part B tank. ( Fig. 1 )
Never cross contaminant tanks.
Preparing for Use
- Clean off the manifold with the static mixing tip removed. ( Fig. 2 )
- Dispense material into a waste container to check for a smooth, air-free flow of both components. Make sure that there are two smooth, consistent streams.
- If the streams of material are not consistent, check for blockages and Figure 2 clean the manifold accordingly and repeat the previous steps.
- Attach a new static mixing tip onto the manifold.
- If dispensing a cure sample, follow long- term interruptions directions below.
Work Interruptions:
- Short Term (5 or so minutes): periodically trigger applicator wand to dispense material into a waste container every 30-45 seconds to ensure the material in static mixing tip does not set.
- Long Term (lunch break or cure sample): remove static mixing tip and discard. Pump grease into fittings on the manifold. Upon returning to work, re-install a new static mixing tiny
Pump Cleaning
Materials Needed:
- 8 cups of manufacturer’s recommender cleaner
- 4 cups of oil (we recommend vegetable)
- Solvent proof gloves and splash-proof goggles
- Waste buckets
- Rags or Paper towels
- Proper storage container for leftover material
Warnings
- Always clean in a well-ventilated area
- Do NOT clean the pump near open flames or welders
- Wear protective gear
- Dispose of all waste correct and according to local guidelines
Tank Cleaning:
- Dispose of all remaining material by purging it straight through the manifold without a static mixer attached into a waste container. Follow manufacturer’s guidelines for material disposal.
- After emptying, pour 4 cups of cleaner into each tank.
- Purge through the system, including the manifold to clean it out.
- Repeat steps 2 and 3 as needed until lines are clean.
- Verify that all cleaner has been purged from the system. 6. Wipe tanks clean with the manufacturer’s recommended cleaner.
Proper Storage:
- After cleaning, pour at least 2 cups of oil (we recommend vegetable) into each tank.
- Purge any remaining cleaner from the system using the oil. Leave some oil in the lines, manifold, valves, and pumps for proper storage.
- Using manifold grease fittings, pump grease into manifold until it comes out of the dispensing ports.
