Installation

Prepare the Site

NOTE: Always use Genuine Graco Parts and Acces-

sories, available from your Graco distributor. If you

supply your own accessories, be sure they are ade-

quately sized and pressure rated for your system.

NOTE: Letters and numbers in parenthesis refer to the

callouts and the parts list on page 10.

Bring a compressed air supply line from the air com-

pressor to the pump location. Be sure all air hoses are

properly sized and pressure-rated for your system.

Use only electrically conductive hoses. The air hose

should have a 3/4 npsm(m) thread.

Before installing any air line components, blow out the

air lines to remove scale and other debris. Use pipe

compound or tape sparingly and only on male threads.

Install a bleed-type shutoff valve in the air line up-

stream from all other air line components, to isolate

them for servicing.

Application

The pneumatic crossover kit is designed to allow two

drum ram systems to be converted into a continuous–

flow system. It shifts pumping from an online ram

when the drum becomes empty.

Typical Pneumatic Crossover Installation

WARNING

Never leave fingers between the ram plate and the

drum when the ram plate is being operated.

WARNING

Never enter the operating area of the ram , when

the ram is in the top position. When the air pres-

sure is lost or in the case of leaks in the air pres-

sure system, the ram plate may drop.

The typical installation, shown on the cover of this

manual, is only a guide. See the system manual for

your application or contact your Graco distributor for

assistance in designing a system to meet your needs.

See your ram manual if installing a new ram or relocat-

ing an existing ram.

Installation

Pneumatic Crossover Setup

Install the pneumatic crossover as shown in Fig. 1.

Also refer to the applicable Schematic, Figs. 2 and 3.

NOTE: During system operation, as the ram ap-

proaches the drum bottom, the top of the ram contacts

the limit valve switch. The switch shuts off air to the

ram air motor via a 4–way piloted air valve (3). As the

valve stops air to one air motor it starts air to the other

air motor. This allows constant material flow and

changing out of material drums.

NOTE: The position of the limit valve (4) on the ram

determines when the ram air motor is turned on and

off. During operation this position can be adjusted as

desired. See Fig. 1.

1. Cut nylon tubing (3,9) to fit.

2. Adjust limit valve (10) to trip with the ram plate 1”

from base plate (see Fig. 1).

NOTE: Do not remove factory installed plugs from pilot

ports.

3. Remove roller and extension piece from limit

valve (10) and replace roller, without extension, on

limit valve.
