INTRODUCTION
REA Automatic Applicators - Introduction
DESCRIPTIONS
The REA Automatic processes are an air atomized
method for electrostatically applying coatings to
objects. The REA Automatics apply a high voltage
DC charge to the applicator electrode, creating an
electrostatic eld 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 uid system delivers material
to the atomizer. At the time of triggering the applicator’s fan and atomization air is applied which
atomizes the material forming a spray mist. The
mist under the inuence of the electrostatic eld,
becomes electrically charged. The charged particles of material are attracted to, and deposited
on, the target. The forces between the charged
particles and the grounded target are sufcient to
turn most normal overspray around and deposit
it on the back surface of the target. Therefore,
a high percentage of the spray is deposited on
the target.
One of the many features of the REA Applicator
Automatic System is the electrical discharge which
is available from the resistive charging electrode is
limited to the optimum level of safety and efciency.
As the applicator electrode approaches ground,
the control unit and applicator circuitry shut down
the high voltage and current to the applicator. The
control unit must then be reset to continue to spray
electrostatically.
The REA Automatic Electrostatic Spray Applicators
are transformable between air spray and HVLP
spray technology. By changing a select few parts,
the applicator may be transformed to be operated
in either spray mode. (See “Spray Technology
Conversion Procedure” in the “Installation” section
for details.)
The REA 900A Applicator is designed with a mov-
ing trigger (shaft), so no forward mounted trigger
valve is required. The dump valve is mounted on
the rear bulkhead plate for ease of maintenance.
All uid connections in this applicator use “AN”
style ttings to eliminate “dead spots” in the uid
path for superior ushing.
The REA 9000R is a robot-mounted applicator for
hollow wrist robots produced by either FANUC or
ABB. The advantage of the REA 9000R applicator
is that it can be removed quickly and easily from
the robot mounting plate with the use of a threaded
retaining ring.
The REA 9000R incorporates two important safety
features. The rst being a break-away design
that will shear two (2) nylon mounting bolts if the
applicator comes in contact with the object being
sprayed. The second is the discharge which is
available from the resistive charging electrode is
limited to the optimum level of safety and efciency.
The REA 9000W (Not FM Approved) is an external
charge probe applicator designed to spray water-
borne coatings in systems utilizing a grounded uid
supply. Applicator features include: Probe Shroud
Air and Electrode Shroud Air. Low pressure air
exiting around the probe body and electrode wire
aid in keeping these components clean during op-
eration. These features help to maintain maximum
efciency of the applicators over a longer period
of time. The REA 9000W applicator also offers
conventional “classiC” high voltage technology.
The REA 9000R and 900A Series of applicators
apply -85kV DC charge to the coating materials at
the point of atomization. This series of applicators
is intended for use with grounded solventborne
coating systems. The REA 9000W Series of
applicators applies -70kV DC Charge. This elec-
trostatic charge allows a more efcient, uniform
application of coating material to the front, edges,
sides, and back of products. It is highly suitable
AA-99-02.5

REA Automatic Applicators - Introduction
Ransburg
for applying coatings to a variety of surface con-
gurations: large targets, small parts, tubular
wares, concave and recessed parts, etc. keeping
these components clean during operation. These
features help to maintain maximum efciency of
the applicators over a longer period of time.
These series of applicators include the automatic
applicator, low or high voltage cable, control unit,
uid hose, and air tubing.
The control unit provides voltage output to the
applicator and contains controls for AC on/off,
high voltage adjust, kV/microamp meter and triple
setpooint or analog input control.

Paint Preparation
A proper paint mixture is essential to electrostatic
operation. Paint test equipment may be obtained
through your Ransburg representative. Consult
Ransburg “Paint Related Information for REA and
REM Applicators” manual, for paint formulation
information. For further paint formu-lation and
testing procedures, consult your Ransburg representative and/or your paint supplier.
Spray Technology Conversion
Procedure
Remove existing retaining ring and air cap from
end of applicator. Remove uid nozzle using
applicator wrench 19749-00.
C A U T I O N
!
> To avoid damage to the uid nozzle and
electrode, the paint pressure and trigger return
spring tension MUST be released by triggering
the applicator prior to removing the uid nozzle.
Atomizer Assembly Selection
The “Atomizer Assembly Selection Chart” is provided to give you a comparison of the air caps
and uid nozzles. THE CHOICE OF ATOMIZER
ASSEMBLY SHOULD DEPEND ON QUALITIES
DESIRED AND MUST BE VERIFIED BY ACTUAL
TRIAL. See your authorized Ransburg electro-
static distributor for atomizer demonstration.
Spray Pattern Adjustment
The spray pattern of fan atomizers is adjustable
from a small circle to an elongated oval, approximately 10 to 18-inches across the usable long
axis at 8 to 12-inches from the target. The swirl
atomizer assemblies produce a round pattern
from 5 to 9-inches in diameter. To adjust pattern
size, increasing fan air pressure will expand the
pattern, a reduction will decrease it. To change
the spray pattern axis of fan atomizers from
horizontal to vertical, loosen retainer ring, rotate
the air cap clockwise to the desired position and
gently tighten the ring.
> The applicator MUST be tilted front down to
remove the uid nozzle. Failure to do so may
allow paint to enter the air passages, thereby
reducing air ow and damaging the applicator
barrel or cause electrical shorting. Applicators
may be ushed in lieu of tilting, but they MUST
be either ushed or tilted BEFORE removing
the uid nozzle!
With a bladed screwdriver, remove pressure
reducers by turning counter-clockwise from barrel. Install the desired pressure reducer. Apply
suitable liquid pipe thread sealant to threads.
into place using the applicator wrench 19749-00.
Reinstall appropriate air cap and retaining ring.
(See “Nozzle Selection Chart” later in this section,
for proper combination of air caps, uid nozzles
and pressure reducers).
For remote HVLP fan air applications fan control,
air pressure should not exceed 10 psi. Fan control pressure should be adjusted depending upon
pattern size desired.

BE DANGEROUS AND SHOULD NEVER BE
USED AGAINST THE BODY. It can blind,

used for cleaning equipment, the users should
wear safety glasses.
>ALWAYS turn the control unit power off prior
to cleaning or servicing equipment.

ANY of the equipment.
> DO NOT OPERATE A FAULTY APPLICATOR!
C A U T I O N
!
>NEVER remove the uid nozzle assembly
while paint is in the gun or paint may clog the
air passages. Clogged air passages will cause
poor atomization and electrical shorting. Air
passages which are clogged with conductive
material may lead to excessive current output
levels and consequent low operating voltage
and long range electrical damage. Before undertaking any atomizer assembly procedure,
see “Atomizer Assembly Cleaning Procedure”.
> The applicator MUST be tilted front down
to remove the air cap and/or uid nozzle.
Failure to do so may allow paint to enter the
air passages, thereby reducing air ow and
damaging the applicator barrel/cascade.
Applicators may be ushed in lieu of tilting.
However, they must be either ushed or tilted
down!
> When using cleaning solvent, standard
health and safety precautions should apply.
ROUTINE SCHEDULE
Follow these maintenance steps to extend the life
of the applicator and ensure efcient operation.
Several Times Daily
• Turn the control unit power to OFF!
• Inspect the air cap for paint accumulation.
Clean as frequently as necessary with a soft
bristled brush and a suitable solvent, and
blow clean.
• Clean all insulating surfaces in the system.
Remove paint accumulation from the exteriorof
the applicator, low voltage cable and air
lines with a solvent dampened cloth. Use only
non-polar (non-conductive) solvent.
W A R N I N G
!
>NEVER soak or submerge the electrical
components of the applicator (i.e. barrel, transformer, cable). Damage and failure may occur.
Daily (at the start of each shift)
• Verify that ALL solvent safety containers are
grounded!
• Check within 20 feet of the point of operation
(of the applicator) and remove or ground ALL
loose or ungrounded objects.

• Inspect workholders for accumulated coating
materials, removing such accumulations.
• Check that atomizer assembly is clean and
undamaged.
• Straighten the applicator electrode if
necessary.
C A U T I O N
!
> When straightening the electrode, be
careful not to distort the uid nozzle orice.
• Clean the uid lter, if used.
• Turn the control unit power ON. The
applicatorred transformer light should light
when triggered.
• Run a current/voltage output test.
Electrical Current Output Test
1. Turn the paint supply OFF.
2. Turn high voltage on at applicator.
3. Slowly approach the applicator electrode to any
grounded object and make contact.
4. Monitor the current output reading on the
voltage supply meter. As applicator approaches,
ground current should increase near 100 mA
overload current should “trip,” shutting “off” high
voltage. Overload indication should come on.
5. Release the trigger and turn the control unit
power OFF.
If the control unit does not trip, DO NOT use the
applicator until the problem has been corrected.
(See the “Troubleshooting Guide” in the “Maintenance” section of this manual).
Shut-Down
(and at the end of each shift)
1. Turn the control unit power OFF.
2. Turn the paint supply OFF.
3. Turn the atomizing air and fan air OFF.
4. Wipe the applicator, cable and hoses with a rag
and a suitable non-polar (non-conductive) solvent.
5. Flush the lines and allow the solvent to remain
in the lines unpressured. (See “Flushing Procedures” in the “Maintenance” section of this manual).
NOTE
> If the shutdown is to be short, the lines
may not require ushing, depending on
the coating material being used. If the
solids in the material settle slowly, the
lines will not need to be ushed as soon
after shut-down as with fast settling
solids. The paint being used and the
length of time that the lines will be shutdown will determine the need for ushing. Metallic paint and primer will require
ushing sooner than some other kinds
of coating materials.
C A U T I O N
!
> If the coating material is fast settling and
if the lines are not ushed soon enough, the
applicator’s uid passages as well as the lines
may become clogged and cause excessive
down time and/or service and repair.
Weekly
• Check the entire system for damage, leaks
and paint accumulation.
21
• Clean the atomizer assembly.

• The Ransburg 19749-00 special Multi-
Purpose Wrench from the Installation Kit.
C A U T I O N
!
> To avoid damage to the uid nozzle, nee-
dle/electrode, the paint pressure MUST be
released by triggering the applicator prior to
removing the tip.
W A R N I N G
!
>NEVER wrap the applicator in plastic to keep
it clean. A surface charge may build-up on the
plastic surface and discharge to the nearest
grounded object. Efciency of the applicator
will also be reduced and damage or failure of
the applicator components may occur. WRAP-
PING THE APPLICATOR IN PLASTIC WILL
VOID WARRANTY.
Proceed as follows:
1. Turn the control unit power OFF.
2. Release the trigger.
3. Turn the paint ow OFF.
4. See “Disassmbly Procedure” in the ”Maintenance” section.
> The applicator MUST be tilted front down
to remove the air cap and/or uid nozzle.
Failure to do so may allow paint to enter the
air passages, thereby reducing air ow and
damaging the applicator barrel/cascade. Ap-
plicators may be ushed in lieu of removing
nozzles. However, they must be either ushed
prior to, or tilted down during nozzle removal!
> The control unit power MUST always be
off when removing the nozzles or any other
service to the applicator.
> Using any tool other than the Ransburg
19749-00 wrench to remove or reinstall
the uid nozzle may distort or damage it.
For efcient operation, keep the applicator’s exte-
rior and the voltage cable clean and free of paint
accumulation and dirt. This prevents the loss of
voltage to ground with a resulting reduction in
electrostatic effect. Paint accumulation at the air
cap orices reduces atomization quality and increases the potential for paint spits. Clean the air
cap with a brush and solvent as often as needed
to ensure good atomization.
W A R N I N G
!
>Any damage to the gun may result in UNSAFE operating.
5. Clean the removed parts with a soft brush
and suitable solvent.
C A U T I O N
!
> Metal tools and wire brushes must NEVER
be used. NEVER use a cleaning tool that
is harder than the plastic parts. If a deposit
cannot be removed with solvent and a rag or
soft brush, soak the part in the solvent ONLY
until the deposit can be removed! NEVER
SOAK THE APPLICATOR BODY, BARREL,
