Fluid Line
Fluid line tubing must be made from a material that is compatible with the fluid being sprayed. Tubing must be rigid
enough to be compatible with the 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) OD push

to
-
connect fittings that are supplied with the nozzle
assembly.
—All fluid must be run through a filter capable of removing 90 micron particulates.
CAUTION: Metallic tubing is not to be used as it will interfere with the electrostatic fields and
create arcing.
Depending on the pump flow rate and length of line, purging all air from the fluid lines can take an extended period of
time. It is suggested that a syringe, pressure pot, or other higher flow device be used to purge the line.
HIGH VOLTAGE CABLE
The high voltage cable connects the HVPS from the Spray Control Panel terminal block to the nozzle. The electrode
connector connects into the rubber boot at the end of the high voltage cable with a steel fastener.
—Ensure that the fastener is firmly attached to the nozzle electrode connector.
