Frequently asked questions

Common questions about ARO from 3G Electric.

What are the key features of ARO AODD pumps?

ARO air-operated double diaphragm pumps are designed for fluid transfer in industrial applications. They use compressed air to flex diaphragms, creating a pumping action that can handle viscous, abrasive, or shear-sensitive fluids. Key features include self-priming, dry-run capability, and adjustable flow rates. Materials of construction include aluminum, cast iron, stainless steel, and engineered plastics, with diaphragm options such as Santoprene, PTFE, and nitrile. Port sizes range from 1/4 inch to 3 inches, and flow rates up to 195 gpm. Some models are FDA-compliant for sanitary use, and ATEX-rated versions are available for hazardous environments. These pumps are used in chemical, food, and wastewater applications.

How do I select the right ARO air control valve for my application?

Selecting an ARO air control valve involves considering actuation type, flow rate, port size, and configuration. ARO offers manual valves with lever, roller, or button actuators, as well as solenoid and air-piloted options. Flow rates vary by model; for example, the 200 Series manual valve provides up to 7.5 scfm. Port sizes range from 1/8 to 1/2 inch NPT. Configurations include 2-way, 3-way, and 4-way, with normally open or normally closed positions. Determine the required function (start, stop, redirect), available pressure, and environmental conditions. Compatibility with existing pneumatic systems and mounting options should also be checked. Technical specifications are available for each model.

What is included in an ARO air-end repair kit?

An ARO air-end repair kit contains components to service the air motor section of ARO double diaphragm pumps. For example, kit 637118-C includes U-cups and air valve retaining rings. These kits are designed to replace worn seals and restore pump performance, preventing air leaks and maintaining efficiency. The number of seals varies by kit; some include up to 24 pieces. It is important to match the kit to the specific pump model and serial number. Repair kits are available for various ARO pump series. Using genuine ARO kits ensures proper fit and material compatibility. Maintenance intervals depend on operating conditions and air quality.

Are ARO FRL units suitable for use in explosive atmospheres?

Some ARO FRL (filter-regulator-lubricator) units are ATEX-compliant, making them suitable for use in explosive atmospheres. For instance, the Series 2000 piggyback filter/regulator with part number P39354-600 carries ATEX certification. These units are constructed with aluminum bodies and nitrile seals, and they provide filtration down to 5 microns and pressure regulation up to 150 psi. When selecting an FRL for hazardous areas, verify the specific ATEX rating and temperature class. Proper installation and maintenance are required to maintain compliance. Non-ATEX versions are also available for standard industrial environments.

What are the compatibility considerations for ARO O-rings and check valves?

ARO O-rings and check valves are designed for specific pump models and series. For example, O-ring Y330-113 fits select PD20A pump models, while O-ring Y325-126 is compatible with the 66615X-X-C series and model 650718-C. Duckbill check valve 93114-2 is used with Series 66605 and model 666053-0D2-04. Material compatibility with the pumped media is critical; nitrile is common for oil and water, while PTFE or Viton may be needed for chemicals. Temperature limits also apply, such as 180°F for the nitrile duckbill valve. Always refer to the pump manual or consult technical data to ensure correct part selection.
