Auto Gun
NOTE:
A pre-configured Auto Gun is a combination of a
switch block and two color change stacks, and each
stack consists of a color and a solvent. The
configuration allows color change capability to be
mounted close to the gun to optimize the time needed
for quick color changes.
The color change stack combinations for Auto Gun
assemblies are limited to the following:
•
4 circulation and 0 non-circulation valves
•
0 circulation and 4 non-circulation valves
•
2 circulation and 2 non-circulation valves
See
, page 12, for additional
connections to the color change stack, and
, page 14, for additional connections to the switch
block.
Additional Components
Regulator
Attach a Regulator to a Color Change Stack
NOTE:
See
, page
12, if you don’t already have an already assembled color
change stack.
1.
Remove the shipping piece (or adapter connector)
and the end block (6) from the tie rods (8) of the
assembled color change stack.
2.
Separate the tie rods (8) from the color change
stack (do not separate individual color change
valves) and attach them to the holes straddling the
inlet port on the base of the regulator.
3.
Slide the color change stack on the tie rods (8) and
insert the fluid output port of the color change stack
into the inlet port of the regulator.
4.
Attach the end block (6) to the ends of the tie rods
(8) and secure with the two screws (9). Torque to 35
in-lbs (4.0 N•m).
Attach a Regulator to a Dose/Mix Manifold
1.
Align the holes in the regulator’s base with the holes
on the top of the central mix manifold block (1).
2.
Verify that the orientation of the regulator’s inlet port
is the same as the dose/mix manifold, and secure
the regulator with the four screws. (See the FXMM
parts diagram in the Fluid Mix Manifold manual for
the location of referenced parts.)
Meter
Attach a Meter to a Color Change Stack
NOTE:
See
, page
12, if you don’t already have an already assembled color
change stack.
1.
Lubricate a seal (3) and insert it in the inlet port in
the base of the meter. (See F
2.
Align the two holes of the T-shaped spacer with the
holes straddling the inlet port of the meter and
secure with the two screws. Torque to 35 in-lbs (4.0
N•m).
