Whenever removing high voltage cables from
equipment, ground the contact end of the cable
by holding the cable such that the contact
touches earth ground for several seconds. Do
not touch the contact until it has been grounded.
This will reduce the possibility of residual charge
causing electrical shock.
The High Voltage Multiplier assembly contains
energy storage components that can cause serious shock injury, and therefore is not field repairable. Warranty will be voided if the High Voltage
Multiplier seal is broken. If the High Voltage Multiplier is defective contact your authorized ITW
Ransburg representative for exchange or repair.
The High Voltage Multiplier and high voltage
cable contain significant capacitance that will
store charge. Allow approximately 10 seconds
for this charge to bleed off before removing the
high voltage cable from the power supply or

The ITW Ransburg REA ProcessThe ITW Ransburg REA Process
The ITW Ransburg REA Process
The ITW Ransburg REA ProcessThe ITW Ransburg REA Process
The REA Process is an air atomized method for
applying coatings to objects electrostatically. The
REA system applies a high voltage DC charge to
the applicator nozzle electrode, creating an electrostatic field between the atomizer and the target
object. The target is electrically grounded through
its support which may be either stationary or
moving.
A regulated pressure fluid system delivers coating
material to the atomizer. At the atomizer, air is
applied which atomizes the coating material forming a spray mist which, under the influence of the
electrostatic field, becomes electrically charged.
The charged particles are attracted to and deposited on the target object. The forces between the
charged particles and the grounded target are
sufficient to turn most normal overspray around
and deposit it on the side and back surfaces of the
target. Therefore, a high percentage of the spray
is deposited on the target.

Control UnitControl Unit
The MGS 2001 is a multi-gun control unit which
may supply low voltage for up to 20 guns. The
circuitry is designed to lock out all other guns if one
gun is actuated with voltage.
The MGS 2001 unit converts standard AC line
voltage to a high frequency, low voltage signal
ranging from 0 to 10 Vrms. This signal is supplied
to the REA/REM spray gun where it is converted
to DC high voltage. The voltage/current characteristic is designed to optimize the charging process under varying load conditions and to limit the
operating current to a safe maximum value. In
addition to supplying low voltage output to the
spray gun, the MGS 2001 unit also provides
controls for AC power ON/OFF, high voltage
adjustment, a high voltage meter, a current meter,
a HIGH VOLTAGE indicator light, and a POWER
oltageoltage
oltage
oltageoltage
ON indicator light. Additionally, interlock connections for a conveyor, exhaust fan and high voltage
control are provided with all MGS units.
The MGS 2001 also includes an Independent Gun
Control (IGC) board. This board allows the voltage to each gun to be adjusted independently of
the other guns, if desired.

The MGS 2000C offers the same features as the
MGS 2001. Additionally, the MGS 2000C is
supplied with High Voltage Modules (one for each
gun) that convert the low voltage output of the
MGS control unit to high voltage. This allows the
MGS system to be used with non-cascade (classic)
guns.
Another difference between the MGS 2001 and
MGS 2000C is the use of reed switches in the
transformer, and air flow switches in the latter, to
trigger the high voltage. This results in a larger box
for the MGS 2000C, as the flow switches are
mounted inside the MGS enclosure, compared to
the MGS 2001 where the reed switches are located
in the gun.
