High Volume/Output RTM Systems Operations Manual
Page | 15
Grounding straps should be installed on all loose conductive objects in the spraying area. This
includes material containers and equipment. Magnum Venus Products recommends grounding straps
be made of AWG No.18 stranded wire as a minimum and the larger wire be used where possible.
NFPA Bulletin No77 states that the electrical resistance of such a leakage path may be as low as 1
meg ohm (10 ohms) but that resistance as high as 10,000 meg ohms will produce an adequate leakage
path in some cases.
CAUTION
Whenever flammable or combustible liquids are transferred from one container to
another, or from one container to the equipment, both containers or container and
equipment shall be effectively bonded and grounded to dissipate static electricity.
For further information, see National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 77, titled
“Recommended Practice on Static Electrical”. Refer especially to section 7-7
titled “Spray Application of Flammable and Combustible Materials”.

HV PRO GUN MANUAL – CPHV-1000 (
INJECTION GUN
)
1:1 CLASSIC PRO GUN – PRTM-RG-1000-A (
RECIRCULATION GUN
)
PATRIOT POWERHEAD MANUAL – PAT-PH-10000 (10” POWERHEAD)
PATRIOT HV FLUID SECTION MANUAL – PAT-LS-49090 (HV PATRIOT FLUID
SECTION)
PATRIOT METERING PUMP MANUAL – PAT-CP-3000
INNOVATOR II MANUAL (
CONTROL BOX)
– INV-CB-100
Note
When using an innovator with the HV PAT-LS-49090 larger fluid section, the
standard 10 mm feed tube assembly can be a little restrictive and cause the
MPG to activate at higher flow rates. Consider alternative connect options to
increase the flow to the IVx3 valve.
