NOTE: You must prime the input lines to the pumps
or the inputs to the color change valves before
priming the pump and filling the entire system.
1.
If using an electrostatic gun, shut off the
electrostatics before filling the lines.
2.
Adjust the main air pressure. To ensure proper
operation, set the main air pressure as close to
100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7.0 bar) as possible. Do not
use less than 85 psi (0.6 MPa, 6.0 bar).
3.
If this is the first time starting up the system, or if
lines may contain air, purge as instructed under

was tested with lightweight oil, which should be
flushed out to avoid contaminating your material.

1.
Command a Mix Unit to Mix. The system will
load the correct mixed material volume.
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: The Mix Unit will automatically run a Mix
Fill if the recipe is not currently loaded into the
system. The Mix Fill volume calculation includes
the remote mix manifold volume and the mixed
material hose volume. The mixed material hose
volume is determined by the gun hose length and
diameter entered in
and the remote-to-mix hose length and diameter
also entered in
.
2.
Adjust the flow rate by changing the target
pressure (in Pressure Mode) or the target flow
rate (in Flow Mode) on the Spray Screen or
through the PLC. The fluid flow rate shown on the
Spray screen is the combined total of component
A and B out of the spray device.
3.
Turn on atomizing air to the spray device. Check
the spray pattern as instructed in your spray
device manual.
NOTICE
NOTICE
NOTICE
Do not allow a fluid supply tank to run empty.
This can damage the pumps and lead to the
proportioning of fluid and air that meets the ratio
and tolerance settings of the equipment. This can
further result in spraying uncatalyzed or poorly
catalyzed material.
