Most pumps found in the joint sealant industry were originally designed to be used in a factory environment, bolted to a flat concrete floor and never moved. Pumps offered by Value Added Systems, Inc. are configured to be used in a construction environment while mounted in a truck or trailer. These features mean increased operator safety, less down time and longer service life between repairs.
Air line filter and lubricator standard. Metal bowls on filter and lubricator. Automatic water drain on filter. Safety cable and “crowsfoot” connector standard. Air line lubricant included. Pressure relief valve to prevent over pressurizing components standard.
Air motor & pump rigidly mounted to elevator crossbar. Simplifies removal for service. Prevents movement when in-transit on and between job sites.
1-1/2” SS elevator piston rods and ENP cylinder end cap. Grease chamber inside cylinder end cap to keep rod lubricated and seal out moisture. Rod scraper ring cleans off dirt and material as rod enters the cylinder.
1-1/4” SS follower plate support rods with lock nuts to prevent rods from breaking where they are attached to the follower plate.360° drum clamp keeps drum located while moving around job site and while in-transit.
Cylinder support gussets to reduce elevator flexing while in-transit. 3/8” thick cylinder walls reduce the risk of damage from material drum handling and other in-transit damage.
Pump fluid section features SS packing nut, primer plate and primer shaft, baked ENP displacement rod for wear and corrosion protection. Pump housing is easily disassembled and is all ENP.
Pump outlet may be repositioned right or left, entire pump section may be turned 180° for flexible mounting configurations.
Drum clamp may be hinged from right or left for flexible mounting configurations.
Air motor-to-pump standoff rods and coupler stud and nut are SS.
Pump packing bellows cover minimizes contamination from sandblast operations.
Air drive motor has SS piston rod and tie rods, anodized air piston and composite cylinder for corrosion protection.
All fasteners are either SS or ENP; they face down or are horizontal to minimize the possibility of trapped moisture and corrosion.
Main air valve slide plate is heat treated SS for long service life.
Elevator air control features equal diameter and length flow paths to all cylinder ports minimizing the tendency of elevators to cock when one cylinder tries to move before the other.
