Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information

Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information
Isocyanates (ISO) are catalysts used in two component materials.

Isocyanate Conditions

Spraying or dispensing materials containing isocya­nates creates potentially harmful mists, vapors, and atomized particulates.
Read material manufacturer’s warnings and material MSDS to know specific hazards and precautions related to isocyanates.
Prevent inhalation of isocyanate mists, vapors, and atomized particulates by providing sufficient ventila­tion in the work area. If sufficient ventilation is not available, a supplied-air respirator is required for everyone in the work area.
To prevent contact with isocyanates, appropriate per­sonal protective equipment, including chemically impermeable gloves, boots, aprons, and goggles, is also required for everyone in the work area.

Material Self-ignition

Some materials may become self-igniting if applied too thick. Read material manufacturer’s warnings and material MSDS.
Keep Components ISO and RES

Moisture Sensitivity of Isocyanates

Exposure to moisture (such as humidity) will cause ISO to partially cure; forming small, hard, abrasive crystals, which become suspended in the fluid. Eventually a film will form on the surface and the ISO will begin to gel, increasing in viscosity.
NOTICE
Partially cured ISO will reduce performance and the life of all wetted parts.
Always use a sealed container with a desiccant dryer in the vent, or a nitrogen atmosphere. Never store ISO in an open container.
Keep the ISO pump wet cup or reservoir (if installed) filled with appropriate lubricant. The lubricant creates a barrier between the ISO and the atmosphere.
Use only moisture-proof hoses compatible with ISO.
Never use reclaimed solvents, which may contain moisture. Always keep solvent containers closed when not in use.
Always lubricate threaded parts with an appropri­ate lubricant when reassembling.
NOTE: The amount of film formation and rate of crystal­lization varies depending on the blend of ISO, the humidity, and the temperature.
Separate

Foam Resins with 245 fa Blowing Agents

Some foam blowing agents will froth at temperatures Cross-contamination can result in cured material in fluid lines which could cause serious injury or damage equipment. To prevent cross-contamination:
Never interchange ISO and RES wetted parts.
Never use solvent on one side if it has been con-
taminated from the other side.
6 332144C
above 90°F (33°C) when not under pressure, especially
if agitated. To reduce frothing, minimize preheating in a
circulation system.

Changing Materials

NOTICE
Changing the material types used in your equipment requires special attention to avoid equipment damage and downtime.
When changing materials, flush the equipment multiple times to ensure it is thoroughly clean.
Always clean the fluid inlet strainers after flushing.
Check with your material manufacturer for chemi­cal compatibility.
When changing between epoxies and urethanes or polyureas, disassemble and clean all fluid com­ponents and change hoses. Epoxies often have amines on the RES (hardener) side. Polyureas often have amines on the RES (resin) side

Overview

Overview
The Reactor E-10hp is a portable, electric-powered, 1:1 mix ratio proportioner for use with:
•Polyurea
Polyurea hybrid coatings
Polyurethane foam
Material may be applied with impingement mix spray guns.
The Reactor E-10hp is gravity-fed from 6 gal. (22.7 liter) supply tanks mounted on the unit.
Severe duty, positive displacement reciprocating piston pumps meter fluid flow to the gun for mixing and apply­ing. When set to recirculation mode, Reactor E-10hp will circulate fluids back to the supply tanks.
The Reactor E-10hp uses primary heating rods and boost heating rods, for each fluid, and an insulated hose bundle with circulation return hoses. This allows the hoses and gun to be preheated to the desired tempera­ture before spraying. The boost heating rods are used during circulation mode to reduce heatup time. Digital displays show the temperatures of the two fluids.
Electronic controls monitor fluid pressures, drive the motor, and alerts the operator if errors occur. See Motor/Pump Status Codes, page 14, for further infor­mation.
The Reactor E-10hp has two recirculation speeds, slow and fast, and an adjustable pressure output.
Slow Recirculation
Slow circulation results in a higher temperature transfer in the heater, so hoses and gun heat up quicker.
Good for touchup or low flow spraying, up to moder­ate temperature.
Not used to circulate full tanks up to temperature.
Use with 245 fa blowing agent foams, to minimize heat returned to tank and reduce frothing.
Fast Recirculation
Use to support higher flow rates or higher tempera­tures by preheating the tanks.
Agitates fluid within tanks, to avoid heating only the fluid at the top of the tank.
Use for flushing.
Pressure Adjust
Automatically maintains selected pressure output for dispensing or spraying.

Ground System

The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk of static sparking and electric shock. Electric or static sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode. Improper grounding can cause electric shock. Grounding provides an escape wire for the electric current.

Generator (if used):
stop generator with power cord(s) disconnected.
Spray gun:
connected to a properly grounded Reactor. Do not oper­ate without at least one grounded fluid hose.
Object being sprayed:
Solvent pails used when flushing:

Fill Wet-Cups

Keep the felt washers in the pump wet-cups saturated with Graco ISO pump oil, Part No. 217374. The lubricant creates a barrier between the ISO and the atmosphere.
Pump rod and connecting rod move during operation. Moving parts can cause serious injury such as pinching or amputation. Keep hands and fingers away from wet-cup during operation. Shut off Motor
Power before filling wet-cup.
Fill wet-cups through slots in plate, or loosen screws and swing plate aside.

Fill Fluid Tanks

NOTICE
To prevent cross-contamination of fluids and equip­ment parts, never interchange (isocyanate) and (resin) parts or containers.
Have at least two 5 gal. (19 liter) pails to transfer fluid from drums to supply tanks. Label one pail “ISO” and the other “RES”, using the red and blue labels pro­vided. Always double-check which material you have before pouring it in the supply tanks. Pouring is easier if pails are not filled to the top.
Open only one supply tank at a time, to avoid splash­ing material from one tank into the other when filling.
NOTE: Using a drill and mixing blade, mix filled or sepa­rated materials in the pail before adding to the tanks. Material left in the tanks overnight may need to be remixed in the tanks.

Heatup Guidelines

The fluids must be circulated from the pumps through the heater, hoses, and back to the tanks to ensure warm fluids are supplied to the gun.
Slow Recirculation
Slow Recirc results in a higher temperature transfer in the heater, so hoses and gun heat up quicker.
Good for touchup or low flow spraying, up to moder­ate temperature.
Fast Recirculation
Fast Recirc keeps heaters on full-time to bring fluid tanks up to temperature. The higher your flow rate, the more heat needed in the tanks before spraying.
For 230 V systems:
fluid temperature gauges (Y) are within 45°F (25°C) of target outlet temperature.
For 120 V systems:
fluid temperature gauges (Y) are within 30°F (17°C) of target temperature.
Use Fast Recirc until pump inlet
Use Fast Recirc until pump inlet

Heat Management Tips

Heaters perform better with lower flow rates or smaller mix modules.
Triggering the gun for short periods helps maintain efficient heat transfer, keeping material at the desired temperature. Triggering the gun for a long period may not allow enough heating time, depend­ing on material temperature in tanks.
If temperature displays fall below acceptable limits,
set function knob to Slow Recirculation and cir­culate again to bring temperatures back up.
Each 35 ft (10.7 m) hose bundle adds about 5 min­utes to heatup time, with most materials. Maximum recommended hose length is 105 ft (32 m).
For a quicker start, do initial heatup circulation with the tanks 1/4 to 1/3 filled, then add more material.
Volume in tanks:
example, 2.5 gal. (10 l) in each tank will heat up almost twice as fast as 5 gal. (20 l).
Mixes fluid within tanks, to avoid heating only the fluid at the top of the tank.
Use for flushing.
Use only what you need. For

Spraying

NOTE: Air is supplied to spray gun with gun piston
safety lock or trigger safety lock engaged and gun fluid manifold valves closed (if present).

4. Check fluid pressure gauges to ensure proper pres­sure balance. If imbalanced, reduce pressure of higher component by slightly turning Recirc/Spray valve for that component toward Recirc, until gauges show balanced pressures. The pressure imbalance alarm (Status Code 1) is inactive for 10 seconds after entering spray pressure mode, to allow time to balance pressures.
In this example, RES side pressure is higher, so use the RES side valve to bal­ance pressures.
