3.1: Component Descriptions
Color Change Valve, also known as “CCV” — Pneumatic valve used to
open and close fluid passages on the dispense pump, mix manifold,
and color stack.
Mix Manifold— Continuously mixes paint resin (A) and catalyst (B). A
built-in check valve on the hardener side prevents back-up of resin into
the catalyst pump. Resin flow is controlled by a single CCV “AE”.
Color Stack— Manifold blocks and Color change valves for paint resin (A) material.
Multiple colors must use the same catalyst. Used as the location of flushing solvent
for cleaning of the fluid lines.
Dispense Pump— The device used to dispense hard-
ener or catalyst to the mix manifold. The system controls the pump’s step-
per motor to precisely dispense at the required ratio.
HMI— “Human-Machine Interface”. This is used to
operate and monitor the system. It has a 7” touch screen
and sends instruction to and receives data from the system
control main board.
Flow Meter— Measures and communicates the flow rate of resin to the system
control. Also used in the accessory solvent meter kit to measure solvent usage.
