Installation

Installation

The mix manifold is designed for use on proportioning pumps with independent drive motors. Do not use this manifold on a mechanically linked sprayer without using mechanically linked on/off A and B valves as this will result in fluid pressures that can rupture equip- ment and cause skin injection.

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.

Fluid Inlets

See FIG. 1 on page 6. The A and B fluid inlets are equipped with 3/4 in. check valves, ball valves, and 3/4 in. x 3/4 in. npt fittings and 3/4 in. x 1/2 in. fitting. Connect 3/4 in. and 1/2 in. npsm(f) fluid hoses using the two adapter nipples.

Solvent Inlet

See FIG. 1 on page 6. Connect the solvent supply line from the solvent pump to the 1/4 npt(m) solvent inlet valve (H). Use a grounded, Graco-approved hose rated to withstand the maximum fluid working pressure of the solvent pump. The solvent chosen must be chemically compatible with the hose core material.

Fluid Outlet

See FIG. 1 on page 6. Connect the 1/2 in. ID x 2 ft. (min- imum) integrator hose (L) to the mix manifold fluid outlet

(R). Then connect the static mixer (S) and mix hose (T1) to the 1/2 npt(f) integrator hose (L). Then connect the fluid whip hose (T2) to the mix hose and the gun to the whip hose.

Heated Manifold

See FIG. 1 on page 6. The XM PFP manifold has a 1 in. thick aluminum plate with brass compression fittings for 1/2 in. OD x 3/8 in. ID nylon hose used to circulate heated water/glycol and heat the mix manifold.

Mounting

To mount the bare manifold, drill four holes in the mount- ing surface, and secure with four 5/16-18 x 1/2 in.

(50 mm long) screws. Use the manifold as a template when drilling the holes.
