SETTING THE CURRENT LIMITING
The "Current limiting" bar graph display (9) is located above the "Current limiting" push
button (19). If the control unit is in the ready position, this light strip shows the set value
as a dot.
The current limiting is an adjustable threshold. If this threshold is exceeded, for example by
the spray gun having approached the object being sprayed, the high-voltage is adjusted
downwards until the threshold is no longer exceeded.
The set values for high-voltage (40 kV) and for spray current limiting (83 mA) that are shown
in the examples, are saved in R2 by pressing and holding for a longer time the recipe push
button (for > 2 seconds).
Procedure:
1. Press the "Current limiting" button
(19) to adjust the limitation of the
spray current.
The LED (20) indicates that current
limiting is selected.
2. The current limiting can now be
adjusted with the universal control
dial (16) between 10 - 100 µA with a
resolution of 1 µA.
The corresponding value is indicated
in the LED display (15).
