Heat the cartridge by means of
microwave oven, convention oven,
electrical hot-box etc. to a conditioned
temperature of 60°C (140°F).
If using a microwave, a rotating 700 watt
microwave is recommended. Presuming
the starting temperature of the cartridge
is 25°C (77°F), heat the cartridge for 1:00
minute on both sides of the cartridge for
a total heating duration of 2:00 minutes.
Use an infrared temperature gun to
check the cartridge (in multiple locations
– top, middle, bottom) to ensure the Base
side is 50-57°C (122-135°F).
For spraying HBE 3:1 (1000 mL) and Liquid Epoxy Types 4:1 (940 mL)
Install air inlet fi tting to the atomizer gun
air inlet 1/4” female thread. Attach the
air supply line to the Atomizer inlet fi t-
ting. The air supply pressure should be
100 psi (7 bar) and air fl ow rate shall be
minimum 12 CFM. Only clean and dry air
should be used.

Thoroughly clean the cutback area
to “near white metal” SIS Sa 2½
(SSPC-SP10) or equivalent. Materials
used for abrasive blasting shall produce
an angular surface profi le of 2.5-5 mils
(64-127 μm) Lightly abrade at least
50mm (2”) of the line coating on each
side of cutback area.
