5. START-UP AND OPERATION
5.1 GROUNDING THE BINKS AIRLESS PUMP
To prevent static charging igniting the flammable spray material, the BINKS airless
pump must be grounded in accordance with professional association regulation
ZH 1/200 (Germany), “Static Electricity”, before it is started up. A grounding cable is
included in the supply schedule.
1. Grounding wire has to be mounted on the grounding terminal of the high pressure filter or (if
pump is used without HP-filter) on the middle section of the pump.
2. Connect the other end of the grounding cable to a suitable grounding device (e.g. grounding
bar).
5.2 PREPARING TO START UP THE BINKS AIRLESS PUMP
Proceed as follows:
1. Check that the lubrication chamber is full. To do this, open the screw plug on the filler neck of
the lubrication chamber. If necessary, top up the lubricant (Order Code for solvent paint: 0114-
009433, for waterborne paint: 0114-014871) and close the screw plug again.
2. Select a suitable filter cartridge using the table in section 2, Brief Description and insert it into
to the high pressure filter.
3. Attach a suitable hose to the spray material line to the spray material outlet connection piece
on the high pressure filter.
The spray material lines in the BINKS supply programme are identified on the screw
fitting with the maximum permitted working pressure and the bursting pressure. The
lesser value, the maximum permitted working pressure, must be greater than the
maximum permitted working pressure of the spray material pump (see 3, Technical
Data).
4. Connect the airless gun designed at least for the maximum permitted working pressure of the
spray material pump, to the fluid hose.
We recommend for Airless: BINKS Airless spray gun HAP 50 with max. pressure 500 bar or
BINKS Airless spray gun Airless 1 with max. pressure 420 bar.
We recommend for Aircombi: BINKS Aircombi spray gun AA 4000 with max. pressure
275 bar or BINKS Aircombi spray gun DSG-2000 with max. pressure 250 bar.
5. Make sure that the ball valve on the pneumatic drive is closed.
6. Connect the compressed air supply at the compressed air supply connection piece.
7. The airless pump is equipped with an air maintenance unit, consisting of filter, pressure regu-
lator and fog lubricator. The air maintenance unit is intended for cleaning compressed air for
workshop purposes from liquid and solid contamination, for pressure regulation and for provid-
ing a fine oil spray for lubrication of cylinders, valves etc.
Set the amount of oil (drops per minute) on the dosing screw as required during operation.
The number of drops can be seen in the sight-glass.
