Installation

1. 

Mount the radial spinner bracket using 
the rod provided or bolt it onto an 
appropriate mounting fixture. Follow 
these steps to install the radial spinner 
valve:
a.  Slide the valve up into the 

bracket opening until it bottoms 
out at the actuating air fitting. 
Secure in place.

b.  Install the special bent tip in the 

rotating luer lock adapter. Make 
sure the tip end is in the vertical 
position.

c.  Slide the air motor into the 

bracket opening. Make sure 
the motor collet does not make 
contact at the bend of the 
dispense tip.

Prior to installing this 
system, read the associated 
reservoir and ValveMate

 

7160RA controller operating 
manuals to become familiar 
with the operation of all 
components of the radial 
spinner system.

NOTE:

 Refer to the 

ValveMate 7160RA 
controller operating 
manual for air connection 
instructions.

d.  Insert the shaft into the collet. 

Set the tip approximately 
0.5 mm (0.20") from the 
spinning disc surface. Tip 
alignment should be 2.5 mm 
(0.100") away from the radial 
spinner shaft.

e.  Realign the valve and motor 

in the bracket as needed 
to achieve recommended 
clearances.

2. 

Connect the fluid feed hose to the 
reservoir outlet and the valve inlet 
port using the appropriate fittings 
(supplied).

3. 

Connect the 4 mm diameter 
air hose from the valve to 
the 7160RA controller. The 
white connector goes to the 
ACTUATING AIR port. Make 
sure the nozzle air is OFF and 
set to 0 bar (0 psi). 

NOTE:

 The NOZZLE AIR port 

is not used for radial spinner 
installations.

4. 

Connect the white and black 
6 mm diameter air hoses to 
the air motor assembly: white 
connects to the motor speed 
control and black connects to 
the F fitting (actual markings 
on air motor).

5. 

Connect the white and black 
6 mm diameter hoses to 
the filter-regulator-lubricator 
assembly. White connects to 
the oil recovery bowl and black 
connects to the control valve.

6. 

Fill the fluid reservoir. After filling, 
secure the cover and connect the 
reservoir air pressure regulator 

to the air tee using the flexible 
air line (supplied). Attach the 
male quick-connect in the air 
line to the reservoir regulator 
and then attach the white 
quick-connect to the air tee. 
To pressurize the system, slide 
the shut-off valve in the air line 
toward the fluid reservoir.

flow to approximately one drop 
per second.

9. 

Adjust the air motor RPM 
using the speed control knob. 
Turn the speed control knob 
clockwise to reduce RPM and 
counterclockwise to increase 
RPM.

7. 

Set the reservoir pressure regulator 
according to fluid viscosity: low for 
thin fluids [0.07 to 0.2 bar (1 to  
3 psi)] and higher for thicker fluids.

8. 

Set the 752V-UHSS valve (or other 
appropriate valve model) stroke 
control to achieve a desired flow 
rate onto the spinning disc. Set the

shaft.
