We recommend that you adjust the pressure to the minimum quantity of
air necessary to obtain the desired dispensing results. Take the utmost care
when adjusting the pressure.
Normal use
13. OPERATION
After initial priming, if the air line is open, opening the dispensing valve will
immediately start the pneumatic pump. Closing the dispensing valve will stop
the pneumatic pump.
NOTE
First use
To make optimum use of the pneumatic pump, we strongly
recommend that you follow the procedure set out below. This
reduces risks for the operator. After installation of the product, the
starting state must involve closure of all the ball valves in the air line,
and closure of the dispensing device and the pressure regulator
with pressure gauge.
Opening the
air line
Keeping the pressure regulator in the closed position, open the air
line ball valves in sequence. Then keep the dispensing valve open
over a suitable metal container to receive the fluid from it once the
system is primed. Take extreme care and keep the dispensing nozzle
in contact with the wall of the container. We also recommend that
you wear personal protective equipment.
Opening the
pressure and
priming
Slowly open the pressure regulator with pressure gauge, as gradually
as possible. Monitor the pressure by means of the pressure gauge
indicator and wait until you hear the pneumatic pump come into
operation to allow priming. As soon as all the air in the fluid line has
been expelled and the dispensing valve has started dispensing, close
the dispensing valve.
The system supplies fluids at high pressure, such a pressure as to be a
source of danger for the operator. Supply with caution the first time, and in
conditions of maximum safety, in order to acquire a correct perception of
the operation of the system.
Interrupt supply immediately if there are sparks or electrical discharge.
