Operation

Adjust the air pressure regulator to provide desired system pressures in each operating mode. The kit supplies higher pressure air to the BPR in normal production mode, or lower pressure air in off production mode. The off pro- duction mode reduces energy use, paint shear, and pump/system wear during down times.

The kit allows operation with either solenoid activated or solenoid not activated in production mode. The solenoid (0.50 W, 24 Vdc, .020 A) is actuated or deactuated by a 24 Vdc input/output signal from the VFD or ACS. When actu- ated, the solenoid supplies higher air pressure to the BPR to support production requirements. When the solenoid is not actuated, lower air pressure is supplied to the BPR, reducing the system pressure maintained by the BPR.
