Operation

WARNING

COMPONENT RUPTURE HAZARD

To reduce the risk of over-pressurization, which can cause component rupture and serious injury, never exceed 3000 psi (21 MPa, 207 bar) fluid pressure, or 120 psi (0.84 MPa,

8.4 bar) air pressure to the valve.

Pressure Relief Procedure

WARNING

SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

The system pressure must be manually relieved to prevent the system from

starting or spraying accidentally. Fluid under high pressure can be injected through the skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of an injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you:

Dare instructed to relieve the pressure

Dstop dispensing

Dcheck or service any of the system equipment

Dinstall or clean the nozzle

1.Shut off the air to the dispense valve, if applicable.

2.Shut off the air to the supply pumps.

3.Close the bleed-type master air valve (required in your system).

4.Hold a metal part of the valve firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, and trigger the dispense valve to relieve pressure.

5.Open the fluid drain valve (required in your system), having a grounded metal container ready to catch the drainage.

6.Leave the fluid drain valve open until you are ready to dispense again.

If you suspect that the dispense needle or hose is completely clogged, or that pressure has not been fully relieved after following the steps above, very slowly loosen the needle retaining nut or hose end coupling and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely. Now clear the needle or hose.

Electric Switch Hand Held Valve

DBe sure the air supply lines are connected correctly to the OPEN and CLOSE valve air ports.

DTo open or close the valve and maintain the open or closed status, a minimum of 40 psi (280 kPa, 2.8 bar) air pressure must be supplied and maintained at the OPEN or CLOSE port.

DThe trigger only activates the electrical switch in the handle, which turns the remote solenoid on and off.

DTrigger the gun to turn the solenoid on. Release the trigger to turn the solenoid off.

Machine Mount Valve

DBe sure the air supply lines are connected correctly to the OPEN and CLOSE valve air ports.

DTo open or close the valve and maintain the open or closed status, a minimum of 40 psi (280 kPa, 2.8 bar) air pressure must be supplied and maintained at the OPEN or CLOSE port.

To open the valve:

1.Apply air pressure to the OPEN air port on the valve, and remove air pressure from the CLOSE air port on the valve.

2.Maintain air pressure on the OPEN air port to keep the valve open.

To close the valve:

1.Apply air pressure to the CLOSE air port on the valve, and remove air pressure from the OPEN air port on the valve.

2.Maintain air pressure to the CLOSE air port to keep the valve closed.
