-
Attach the calibration gauge to the main pressure hose line and attach the
whip hose to the pressure gage. Tighten the JIC connections.
-
Submerge the gun because of the danger of the operator coming in contact
with either of the water streams from the cavitating or zero-thrust nozzles,
Cavidyne does NOT recommend calibrating the gun out of the water. Use
extra care to avoid both water streams if doing so.
-
Ensure that both the cavitation and zero-thrust nozzles are pointed away from
the diver’s or operator’s hands, arms and body.
-
Start the power unit (See Section 5.2).
-
Pull the gun trigger to the open or “ON” position (See Figure 5.3).
-
Hold the gun tight and observe the calibration gauge (See Figure 5.2).
-
The power unit operator should turn the knob on top of the pressure
regulating valve until pressure reads 4,000 psi (276 BAR) on the calibration
gauge at the Z/T Gun. Turning the knob clockwise will increase the pressure
and turning it counter clockwise will decrease the pressure.
Do not adjust the pressure at the gun to more than 4,000-psi (276
bar). Higher pressure will not improve peformance.
Hoses are rated for 5,000 psi (344 Bar). Pressures above 4,000-
psi (276 Bar) could result in pump and / or hose failure.
