Ground System

Ground Air Compressors and Hydraulic Power Supplies

Ground them according to the manufacturer recommendations.

Ground Air, Fluid, and Hydraulic Hoses Connected to Pump

Use only electrically conductive hoses with a maximum of 100 ft (30.5 m) combined hose length to ensure grounding continuity. Check the electrical resistance of your air and fluid hoses at least once a week. If the total resistance to ground exceeds 25 megohms, replace the hose immediately.

Use a meter that is capable of measuring resistance at this level.

Ground Spray Gun

Ground the spray gun by connecting it to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.

The following grounding instructions are minimum requirements for a system. Your system may include other equipment or objects that must be grounded. Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding instructions for your area and type of equipment. Your system must be connected to a true earth ground.

Ground Pump

Ground the pump by connecting a ground wire and clamp between the fluid supply and a true earth ground as instructed in your separate pump instruction manual.

Ground Fluid Supply Container

Ground the fluid supply container according to local code.

Ground Object Being Sprayed

Ground the object being sprayed according to local code.

Ground Solvent Pails

Ground all solvent pails that are used with flushing according to local code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive. Do not place the pail on a non-conductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continuity.

Setup

Air Line and Accessory Recommendations

1. Install an air pressure regulator on the gun cylinder air supply line.

A minimum of 70 psi (0.49 MPa, 4.9 bar) air pressure must be supplied to the cylinder for proper operation. Air pressure opens the valve, a spring closes the valve. A three-way air valve, which exhausts cylinder air, is required.

2. Install a bleed-type air shutoff valve on the main air line. Install an additional bleed-type valve on each pump air supply line, downstream of the pump air regulator, to relieve air trapped between this valve

and the pump after the air regulator is shut off.

The bleed-type air shutoff valve is required in your system to relieve air trapped between this valve and the pump after the air regulator is closed. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury.

Fluid Line and Accessory Recommendations

• A fluid drain valve(s) is required in your system to assist in relieving fluid pressure in the displacement pump, hose and gun; triggering the gun to relieve pressure may not be sufficient.

• A fluid pressure regulator must be installed in the system if the pump's maximum working pressure exceeds the gun's maximum fluid working pressure (see the front cover).

1. Install a fluid filter and drain valve(s) close to the pump's fluid outlet.

2. Install a fluid pressure regulator to control fluid pressure to the gun.

Some applications require fine-tuned control of fluid pressure. You can control fluid pressure more accurately with a fluid pressure regulator than by regulating the air pressure to the pump.

3. Install a bleed-type air shutoff valve on the gun air cylinder supply line, downstream of the air regulator, to shut off air to the gun cylinder. Connect the air supply line to the gun cylinder air inlet (C). See Fig.

The cylinder air inlet accepts 1/4 in. (6.3 mm) O.D. tubing.

3. Install a fluid shutoff valve to shut off the fluid supply to the gun.

4. For paint spray applications, install an in-line fluid filter, part no. 210500, on the gun fluid inlet (F) to avoid clogging the spray tip with particles from the fluid. See Fig. 4.

5. Connect the electrically conductive fluid hose to the gun fluid inlet (F) or optional in-line filter.
