Maximum pumping outlet pressure: 60 PSI (4.1 bar) continuous; 70 PSI (4.8 bar) intermittent
Maximum pumping inlet vacuum produced: 27 InHG (0.91 bar)
Maximum pumping speed: 190 CPM (cycles per minute)
Pump static withstand pressure rating: MAWP 350 PSI (24 bar)
Materials: pressure section; stainless steel, diaphragms; FKM, reed valves; stainless steel
Process gas temperature range: FKM -40 to 275°F (-40 to 135°C)
Recommended FKM replacement schedule: every 1,000 hours
Air temperature range for motor/gearbox operation: 32 to 105°F (0 to 40°C)
Motor is coupled to diaphragms with patented gas pressure-charged chamber
Pumping outlet pressure runs about 10 PSI lower than the charge gas pressure level
Non-reactive CO2 gas is used to charge the pump head
CO2 gas is safer than air for driving the pump
CO2 gas is non-flammable and non-explosive with LPG (should a diaphragm ever leak)
CO2 gas regulator with gauges is provided with pump assembly
CO2 tank is operator provided and available at any welding supply store
Pump charge gas supply: standard (20#) 5 LB tank of industrial CO2
Typical CO2 gas usage: <0.2 SCFH (very little); estimated life of charge gas tank is 1 year
Pump charge gas pressure range: continuous 5 to 70 PSI (1.4 to 5.5 bar); to 80 PSI intermittent
