1. General Precautions & Safety Warnings

The EMist EPIX360™ electrostatic sprayer is a battery-powered liquid spray system designed to improve the performance of water soluble or water based solutions used on touchable and other exposed surfaces. This is accomplished by applying an electrostatic charge to the surface of the liquid droplets as they leave the spray head. This unique process improves liquid adhesion to targeted surfaces.

The hazards associated with the liquids you choose to apply represent their own unique and important safety requirements. Refer to each chemical manufacturer’s documentation to establish best use steps and any need for personal protective equipment (PPE).

Never point the spray applicator at another person and never touch or handle the charging area within the applicator (front end) during spraying. This will help avoid chemical splash and other possibly unsafe spraying conditions.

DO NOT USE LIQUIDS THAT ARE NOT WATER SOLUBLE OR WATER BASED WITHIN THE SPRAYER. HIGH ALCOHOL CONTENT LIQUIDS MUST NEVER BE SPRAYED NEAR AN OPEN FLAME OR OTHER POSSIBLE IGNITION SOURCES.

Safety Notes:

Users are required to read this User Manual, understand the safe and correct operating procedures that pertain to the operation of the sprayer, and maintain the product according to the User Manual. It is the operator’s responsibility to ensure that any person who uses this equipment has read this manual.

Lack of attention to safety can result in reduced

eciency, accident(s), or personal injury. Use the following

safety precautions as a guide when using this machine:

• Read the User Manual thoroughly. Failure to read the manual is considered misuse of the equipment.

• Use the sprayer only for its intended use as directed in this manual.

• Familiarize yourself with all components, including caution and warning labels.

• Only trained and qualied personnel should operate the sprayer.

• Do not use the equipment while under the inuence of drugs or alcohol.

• Remove the battery when leaving the equipment unattended.

• Store the system in a cool, dry place. Do not expose to extreme temperatures.

• Flush the system before storing.

Safety Warning:

Do not use the electrostatic sprayer if you have a

pacemaker or an Implantable Cardioverter Debrillator

(ICD) or stand within 10 feet if you use such devices, as this product contains an electrostatic device that may interfere with these type of devices. Contact your physician prior to operation if you are unsure if this system will interfere with your implant.

Electrical Warning

To reduce the risk of electrical shock or injury, follow these guidelines:

• Do not place body parts or any foreign object into any opening of the sprayer.

• Never reach inside of the sprayer while the system is powered on.

• Never place equipment in standing water or liquid.

• Never operate the sprayer if it has been damaged or if it is not working properly.

4. Spray Application

Spray Application Process

Begin at the farthest point from the doorway, work

toward the doorway so you can step out when

application is complete.

Aim the electrostatic sprayer 36” to 48” from the

surface target area, begin with a smooth gure “S”

movement aiming below, at, and above the surface

target area while walking at an average pace

continuously moving.

Make sure you are working in a methodical “S” pattern

and let your passes overlap when moving to the next

surface target area.

Allow treated area to set for contact time as

recommended by the chemical manufacturer’s

label before re-entry into the area.

Fluid Management

The sprayer is designed for single or multiple application

environments. Please use the multiple tank applications

carefully by marking tanks with your chemical identiers

when necessary.

Tips:

•

Stay in motion. Electrostatically charged droplets will

accumulate in higher levels at the tip of the applicator

if you move too slowly while the device is in use.

•

Do not over apply. The tendency to “paint the fence”

is an over usage of chemical.

•

In between chemical changes, press the trigger while

pointing to the oor or other safe target area for four

to ve seconds to clear the remaining chemical in the

system.

Special note:

Always mark and save one tank liner exclusively for

TIP: IF THE APPLICATOR BECOMES WET OR

BEGINS TO DRIP, YOU ARE MOVING TOO SLOW

OVER THE SURFACE TARGET AREA AND NEED TO

SPEED UP THE APPLICATION PROCESS. DO NOT

OVER-SATURATE THE SURFACE. IF YOU SEE RUNS

OR PUDDLES, YOU ARE APPLYING TOO MUCH

COVERAGE OVER THE TARGET SURFACE AREA.

clean water. This will be used to ush the system

at the end of daily use or when ushing the system

between switching to dierent chemicals for use in

disinfecting.

Battery Management

•

Fully charge each battery before use.

•

Always keep connectors clean and dry.

•

Do not expose batteries to standing liquid or

excessive heat.

•

Only charge battery packs with an EMist charger.

5. Maintenance & Cleaning

Flushing the Electrostatic Sprayer

TIP: DO NOT STORE CHEMICALS IN THE

RESERVOIR WHILE THE SYSTEM IS NOT IN

USE FOR GREATER THAN A 24-HOUR PERIOD.

The sprayer is designed to require minimal maintenance

and cleaning.

Tips:

•

Clear the system at least once a day by spraying

clean water through the sprayer for at least 10-15

seconds. Use the tank liner marked for clean water.

This tank liner should be stored with the sprayer’s

accessories and equipment and should be rinsed

after each use.

•

Keep batteries fully charged.

Changing Chemicals

TIP: IT’S IMPORTANT TO FLUSH THE SYSTEM IN

BETWEEN USE OR WHEN SWITCHING CHEMICALS

TO PREVENT RESIDUAL BUILD UP AND TO AVOID

MIXING CHEMICALS.

Storage

Tips:

•

Empty uid or run until empty.

•

Remove batteries and re-charge by placing on the

charger.

•

Wipe down exterior with water or alcohol for removing

dirt and soil.

CAUTION: DO NOT STORE THE SPRAYER IN AN

AREA THAT MAY FREEZE (TO AVOID DAMAGE FROM

LIQUID REMAINING IN THE SYSTEM AND LINES).

THIS WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

Battery Removal

Tips:

Place batteries into charger to fully charge for next

•

usage. Each battery takes approximately 45 minutes

to fully charge.

Tips:

•

To ush the system, ll the tank liner marked for clean

water with water.

•

Spray for at least 10-15 seconds to ush the previous

uid from the system.

•

When nished, rinse the clean water tank liner and

properly store it with the sprayer’s accessories and

equipment. Do not discard unless damaged or aged

from use.

CAUTION: TO PREVENT CROSS CONTAMINATION

OF CHEMICALS, YOU MUST PERFORM A FLUSH

ANY TIME YOU CHANGE THE TYPE OF CHEMICALS

BEING USED.
