5.1 MOUNTING AND POSITIONING
FLUID RESERVOIR ASSEMBLY
The fluid reservoir assembly includes pumps, an air pressure regulator with a built in particle filter, and the fluid reser-
voir tank.
The piston pump powers lubricant delivery from the reservoir to the nozzle. The pressure regulator with built in parti-
cle filter provides clean, controlled air pressure to the pump for its operation. The fluid reservoir tank provides a sealed
container for the fluid being sprayed. The reservoir tank allows for the direct mounting of the air pressure regulator
and pump. The reservoir tank also incorporates a fluid level sensor that can stop system operation via a system fault
when fluid levels drop below a safe operating setpoint.
Figure 5.1: Fluid reservoir assembly
With the fluid reservoir system configuration, the components are mounted directly on the reservoir itself. Your
system will ship from the factory with the components already installed on the fluid reservoir.
Each electrostatic nozzle is powered by a dedicated pump. You will be able to mount up to four (4) pumps to power up
to four (4) nozzles directly to the fluid reservoir tank. If your system configuration includes more than four pumps and
nozzles, a Pump Expansion Kit is available that accommodates an additional four pumps.
•
The customer will be responsible for supplying and connecting all liquid and air tubing for the system.
•
Position the fluid reservoir assembly below the level that the nozzles will be mounted at.
•
The fluid reservoir tank must be positioned within 35 ft of the nozzle mounting location.
•
If your configuration does not include the fluid reservoir tank, the air pressure switch and piston pumps are to
be mounted in a clean, non
-
hazardous area below the nozzle mounting level.
WARNING: Make sure all power is disconnected before making any connections to or from the spray
control panel.
ATTENTION: Please follow any local, state, or national regulations for clearance requirements and
electrical codes.
