Flushing

There are times when you only want to flush the fluid 
manifold, such as:

breaks in spraying

overnight shutdown

end of potlife

In this manual, that procedure is referred to as 

Fluid 

Manifold Flushing

You can flush the fluid manifold by 

connecting a solvent pump to the fluid manifold.

Other times, you need to flush the entire system:

first time material is loaded into equipment*

color change

servicing

shutting down equipment for more than 3-1/2 hours 
(depends on material)

putting equipment into storage

*

Some 

Full System Flushing

 steps are not necessary for 

initial flushing, as no material has been loaded into the sys-
tem yet.

To flush the entire system, you first follow the 

Fluid 

Manifold Flushing

 procedure, at right, then the 

Full 

System Flushing

 procedure, page 20.

Fluid Manifold Flushing

Using Solvent Pump

WARNING

Read warnings, page 5. 

Use the lowest possible pressure when flush-
ing to avoid splashing.

Before color change or shutdown for storage, 
flush at a higher flow rate and for a longer 
time.

A circulation setting is available. Consult your 
distributor. Refer to page 30.

1.

Follow 

Pressure Relief Procedure

, page 14. 

Engage trigger lock. Remove spray tip. 

2.

Ensure that shutoff valves G

A

 and G

B

 are open. 

Connect solvent pump line to solvent purge valve J

A

 

and J

B

. Turn on solvent pump and open solvent 

purge valve J

A

.

3.

Adjust solvent pump regulator to desired pressure; 
use lowest pressure possible.
