Installation

For assistance in setting up a plural component sprayer, contact your Graco distributor, to ensure that you select the proper type and size equipment for your system.

See illustration in FIG. 1 on page 8.

Fluid Inlets

The A and B fluid inlets (A and B) are equipped with 1/2 npt(f) ball valves. Connect 1/2 in., 3/8 in., or 1/4 in. npsm(f) fluid hoses with adapter nipples as needed. See brochure 339361 for high pressure hose and fitting part numbers.

NOTE: If the manifold is remote, the hoses must be properly sized and balanced. See Volume Balancing the Mix Manifold on page 15 for more remote setup information.

Fluid Outlet

Connect the outlet to two primary static mixer tubes (J), with mixer elements (M), to the mix hose (N), cleanup mixer (J), whip hose (K), and spray gun (L).

NOTICE

To prevent creating a flare on the mixer tube, do not use a union swivel end on the mix tube inlet.

Add mixed material hose as necessary between the mix hose and cleanup mixer.

NOTICE

Never split the flow to multiple guns until the two flu- ids are mixed after the mix manifold assembly.

Solvent Inlet

Connect the solvent supply line (D) from the solvent pump to the 1/4 npt(m) solvent inlet valve (C), or inlet tee on the Quickset model.

NOTE: Use a Graco approved grounded hose rated to withstand the maximum fluid working pressure of the solvent pump. The hose core must be chemi- cally compatible with the solvent being used, such as nylon or PTFE.

Mounting

Remote Mix Manifold

The mix manifold can be removed from the proportioner and mounted closer to the gun. This reduces the volume of mixed material and flush solvent for quick setting materials (less than 10 minute pot life). See Volume Balancing the Mix Manifold on page 15 for more remote setup information.

Use Remote Mix Manifold Carriage 262522 for in-line hose mount locations. The carriage protects the mani- fold and valves from accidental operation which could cause a plugged line.

Bare Manifold

To mount the bare manifold, drill two holes in the mount- ing surface, and secure with the two 1/4-20 screws (28).
