The Fill Pump Transfer Solenoid (P) engages the
Pneumatic Remote Transfer Fill Pump (N) when
the fluid level in the Primary Tank (G) falls below a
user-specified level. The solenoid disengages the
pump when the fluid level rises to a user-specified
level.
The Fill Pump Transfer Solenoid contains a MAC™
valve that carries FM, ATEX, and IECEx approvals.

One agitator (L, R) is typically mounted on each tank.
The agitator’s purpose is to keep the fluid mixed,
without incorporating air into the fluid.
Each agitator may be electric or pneumatic; however,
the Intelligent Paint Kitchen system can only
communicate with an electric agitator.
An electric agitator’s speed is controlled by a
Variable Frequency Drive/Inverter (B). Every
Variable Frequency Drive/Inverter is mounted in
the non-hazardous location, but the Intelligent Paint
Kitchen system allows the speed to be controlled
locally with the Pump Control Module (PD) or the
Tank Control Module (TD). For complete warnings
and operation instructions, see the agitator manual.
