Operation
WARNING:
Allow only qualified personnel to perform the following tasks. Follow the
safety instructions in this document and all other related documentation.
WARNING:
SERVICING - Before servicing, cleaning, or removal of any part, set trigger
lock on gun, and always shut off power source; then carefully release pressure in fluid
portions of the system.
New systems must be purged of contaminates by flushing with a solvent compatible with
the coating material before starting production.
CAUTION:
Make sure your coating materials and solvents are compatible with the
diaphragms and seals in the EP2 pump. Some coating materials and solvents can
damage the diaphragms and seals. Your Nordson representative can provide you with
information on compatible materials.

Procedure
1
Pump Priming
1. Place the drain rod in a waste container.
2. Turn the back pressure regulator knob fully counter-clockwise.
3. See Figure 9. Turn the ball valves to the priming position.
4. Supply coating material to the EP2 pump.
5. Turn on the EP2 pump.
6. Watch the drain rod. When a solid stream of coating material is
flowing from the rod with no air bubbles, perform the
Air Purge
Procedure
.

Air Purge
7. See Figure 9
. Turn the ball valves to the flushing position.
8. Watch the drain rod. When a solid stream of coating material is
flowing from the rod with no air bubbles, turn the ball valves to the
normal operation
position.
9. Trigger the applicators to purge them of air. Air in the gun bodies
and system will cause them to spit. When they stop spitting the
system should be completely purged of air.
NOTE:
If the pump is operating roughly, air in the system is causing
the pump to cavitate. Repeat the air purge procedure. If you cannot
purge the system of air, check the siphon hoses and fittings supplying
the pump with fluid. A leak in the supply line will suck air into the
pump.
