A
Component Pump A
In a two-component system, Component Pump A typically pumps the ISO or activator
material.
B
Component Pump B
In a two-component system, Component Pump B typically pumps the resin material.
c
Surefire™ Heater Block
Material flows from the supply containers into the fluid pumps, where the material is
pressurized to the desired pressure(s), based on the Control Panel settings. The Surefire™
heater block heats the material on its way to the material pumps.
D
Control Panel
The control panel contains all of the system controls that allow the sprayer to function
properly, as well as being the main display panel that gives information about the
system.
e
PRIME/SPRAY knob
The PRIME/SPRAY knob directs material to the spray hose when in the SPRAY position
and to the prime hoses when in the PRIME position. Turning the PRIME/SPRAY knob will
relieve any pressure built up in the system.
f
Prime hoses
When the PRIME/SPRAY knobs are set to PRIME, spray material will circulate into the
Component pumps and then out of the prime hoses.
g
Inlet valves
The inlet valves allow material to be drawn from the material containers into the system.
They can be turned off in order to prevent material from entering the system.
h
Supply hoses
The two supply hoses deliver fluid from the supply drums to the Component pumps.
I
Dual heated hose
The dual heated hose delivers spray material from the two Component Pumps to the
spray gun.
j
Transfer pump
The two transfer pumps pump material from the supply containers, into the supply
hoses and then to the Component Pumps. The transfer pumps are powered by an air
compressor.
K
Desiccant dryer
The Desiccant dryers remove any moisture that is present in the air pockets left by the
removal of material from the supply drums.
l
Transfer pump air hose
The transfer pump air hose delivers air from the compressor to the transfer pumps.
