SERVICE GUIDE 8540-B

8549-B1

8549-C

DESCRIPTION

The major components of the high-pressure pump models in this

series consist of a(n):

• air-operated motor

• lubricant pressure controller (pressurtrol)

• double-acting reciprocating pump tube.

The pressurtrol minimizes material pressure drop that occurs when

the pump cycles. Refer to SER 319800-1.

Pump Assembly

These high-pressure (70:1 ratio) pumps are designed to deliver a

range of greases [up to NLGT # 3] and operate directly from their

original container.

Models 8540-B, 8549-B1, and 8549-C

Pump model 8540-B is designed with a pump tube length to ac-

commodate 120-pound (50 kg) containers.

The 8549 series pumps are for 400-pound (180 kg) containers with

model 8549-B1 including a bung adapter. See Figure 1.

Early Model Pumps

The earlier versions of these model pumps did not contain seals in

the tube assembly. The Piston and Lower Rod cycled in “select-fit”

bores. See Figure 3.

Any earlier model pump that has not been repaired since 1983 re-

quires a 393516 conversion kit.

Conversion Kit

NOTE: In addition to the contents within the kit, the existing pump

tube must be replaced. See Table 2 for the appropriate part number.

Install the Kit

To reassemble the pump with the conversion kit, follow the proce-

dures outlined in the section entitled Assembly.

Performance Chart

A pump’s ability to deliver material is based on the pressure (psi/Bars) and quantity (cfm/lpm) of air supplied to the motor and the amount of

material discharge [back] pressure to be overcome within the system.

This chart contains curves based on three different air pressures. The curves relate delivery in ounces (grams) per minute (X axis) to air con-

sumption in cubic feet (liters) per minute (right Y axis) and to material discharge pressure in psi/Bars (left Y axis).

IMPORTANT:Prior to performing any maintenance procedure, the

following safety precautions must be observed. Personal in}ury

may occur.

WARNING

Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such

as methylene chloride or 1,1,1-trichloroethane in this pump. An

explosion can result within an enclosed device capable of con-

taining pressure when aluminum and/or zinc-plated parts in the

pump come in contact with halogenated hydrocarbon solvents.

Release all pressure within the system prior to performing any

overhaul procedure.

• Disconnect the air supply line from the pump motor.

• Into an appropriate container, operate the control valve to

discharge remaining pressure within the system.

Never point a control valve at any portion of your body or anoth-

er person. Accidental discharge of pressure and/or material can

result in injury.

Read each step of the instructions carefully. Make sure a prop-

er understanding is achieved before proceeding.

Overhaul

NOTE: Refer to Figure 2 for component identification on all

overhaul procedures.

• Replace as necessary.

3 Inspect Piston (25) closely. Use a magnifying glass to detect any

wire draw marks.

• Replace as necessary.

perfections. Ensure a smooth and clean contact is obtained when

assembled.

EXAMPLE: Place Ball (23) into Piston (25). Fill the Piston with

solvent. Make sure no leakage occurs.

Assembly

NOTE: Prior to assembly, certain components require lubrication

in clean oil. Refer to Table 4 for details.

Operation

WARNING

Do not exceed the lowest pressure rating of any

component in the system.

Do not alter the design of the pump. Never install addition-

al components to the outlet of the pressurtrol.

Never point a control valve at any portion of your body or

another person. Lubricant discharged at high velocity can

penetrate the skin and cause severe injury. Should any flu-

id appear to puncture the skin, get medical care

immediately.

Ensure all components are in operable condition. Replace

any suspect parts prior to operation. Personal injury can

occur.

1 Make sure air pressure at the regulator reads zero.

2 Slowly supply air pressure [not to exceed 20 psi (1.4 Bars)] to the

pump’s motor.

• The pump assembly should cycle.

If the pump assembly does not cycle, refer to the Troubleshooting

Chart for details.

With air pressure at zero:

3 Connect a product hose to the pressurtrol’s material outlet.

• Direct the hose into an appropriate collection container.

4 Place the pump in grease.

5 Slowly supply air pressure to the pump’s motor.

6 Allow the pump to cycle slowly until the system and grease is free

of air.

If the pump assembly does not prime, refer to the Troubleshooting

Chart for details.
