INTRODUCTION
Vector Solo AA90 Applicators - Introduction
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Vector Solo
bined air/airless powered only by a pressurized
air source. Pressurized air creates rotation of a
turbine generator that powers a cascade. The
cascade generates a high voltage DC charge
to the electrode creating an electrostatic eld
between the atomizer and the target. The target
is electrically grounded through its support which
may be either stationary or moving.
A regulated pressure uid system delivers coating
material to the atomizer. At the time of triggering
the applicator, fan and atomization air is introduced,
which atomizes the coating material into a spray
mist. The atomized spray particles under the inuence of the electrostatic eld become 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 sufcient to turn most normal overspray
around and deposit it on the back surface of the
target. Therefore, a high percentage of the coating
is deposited on the target.

AA90 Applicators are a com-
NOTES
One of the many features of the Vector Solo AA90
applicator system is that the electrical energy,
which is available from the resistive charging
electrode, is limited to the optimum level of safety
and efciency. The system is incapable of releasing sufcient electrical or thermal energy during
normal operating conditions to cause ignition of
specic hazardous materials in their most easily
ignited concentrations in air.
As the applicator electrode approaches ground,
applicator circuitry causes the high voltage to
approach zero while the current approaches its
maximum value.

ground wire is required to be used.
W A R N I N G
!
For proper safe function of the applicator,
the 79727-XX Air Hose must be used either
standard or quick disconnect style.
Fluid Hose Recommendation
Ransburg recommends using a 7994-XX Fluid
Hose Assembly. This assembly is made to spe-
cically t the uid tting size engineered into the
applicator. This hose is available as a standard
conguration or as a replacement from your authorized Ransburg distributor.
C A U T I O N
!
Any user installed uid hose used must
be rated for 207 bar (3000 psig) working
pressure minimum.
Filters
1. Install an air lter assembly on the outlet of the
main air regulator. The lter should be 5 micron
with a maximum working pressure of at least
100 psig (6.9 bar). Screw the tting into the lter
inlet. The lter MUST be installed with the arrow
pointing in the direction of ow. (Refer to the ap-
propriate Filter Assembly manual for Installation

Supply air to the applicator must be in-
terlocked with the solvent supply. Supply air
must be off to the applicator when solvent
supply is on.
3. Relieve any uid pressure, then discharge uid
into appropriate grounded metallic container.
Applicator to Target Distance
The distance between the applicator and the tar-
get inuences the appearance of the nal nish
of the object. If the applicator is held too close,
under 100mm (approximately 4-inches), runs and
sags with excessive "bounce-back" may occur. If
the applicator is held too far from the object, the
electrostatic attraction is decreased. Normally,
the best spacing between applicator and target is
in the 150mm to 300mm area (6-inch to 12-inch).
C A U T I O N
!
The object being coated is maintained
at ground potential. The applicator operator is also grounded, therefore, the operator
has as much attraction for the electrostatic
paint as the object. To prevent "wrap-back"
always keep the applicator nozzle closer to
the target than to the operator.
Figure 16: Applicator Flush Out
4. Load next color or remove applicator from
installation as required.
THE RIGHT TECHNIQUE
Following are some basic electrostatic spray techniques. Depending on the spray target, it may be
necessary to adjust the technique.
Spray Width Determination
The size of the object being coated is the determining factor in adjusting the spray pattern. The
larger the object, the larger the required pattern
width. This is accomplished by uid nozzle selection. Air adjustment is used to remove "tails"
from the spray pattern and adjust the pattern size.
NOTE
The degree of atomization is depen-
dent on the viscosity of the paint formula-
tion, the applied uid pressure, and nozzle
selection.
Overlap
For the best "hiding" and uniformity of lm thickness, the stroke overlap should be approximately
50%. There should be some overlap at edges
of the part to increase edge coverage. Overlap
requirements may vary widely with different paint
formulations and different compositions of objects
being coated.
Triggering
Applicator triggering (ON/OFF) depends largely
on the desired results (the amount of wrap-around
required, edge coating, etc.). If the front and back
of the object are being coated, proper applicator
technique can edge coat in some instances without
making a specic pass for that purpose. Triggering the applicator before the target is directly
in front of the applicator may cause heavy edge
build-up on the leading edge of the target due to
the electrostatic attraction.

PREPARATION
Paint
A selection of the proper paint mixture is essential
to electrostatic operation. Paint test equipment
may be obtained through your Ransburg representative. For further paint formulation and test
procedures, consult your Ransburg representative
and/or your paint supplier.
Fluid Nozzle
Because of the design of the AA90 applicators,
the uid nozzle precision is paramount to proper
function. Ransburg makes every effort to assure
that all production of this part will meet the critical
design standards necessary for all applications.
The selection of the best nozzle to apply a given
coating to a specic article with maximum efciency is not an exact science. Testing is usually
necessary and wide experience with many types
of coating applications helps. Your Ransburg
representative uses such experience and actual
laboratory testing when recommending a nozzle
for your application needs.
Ransburg
will assist the user in making their own nozzle
selection whenever it becomes necessary. Se-
lection should always be veried by actual tests
to determine optimum efciencies.
Refer to "Nozzle Selction Guide" in this section for
the choice of spray width and spray characteristics
appropriate to the size and type of target. The
maximum nozzle ow capacity depends on the
orice size, the uid pressure, the paint viscosity,
and the spraying temperature. Always remember,
for maximum paint economy any nozzle selected
should always be operated at the lowest uid
pressure, which will give good atomization and
the required ow rate.
C A U T I O N
!
Ransburg recommends the use of a uid
lter in addition to the lter in the applicator
uid line to reduce nozzle clogging.
However, if parts, paints, or conveyor speeds are
changed, a different nozzle may be required for
best results. The following discussion and guide

MAINTENANCE
Vector Solo AA90 Applicators - Maintenance
SUITABLE SOLVENTS FOR CLEANING VECTOR SOLO APPLICATORS
When cleaning the applicator, a suitable solvent
for cleaning depends on the part(s) of the applicator to be cleaned and the material that needs
to be removed. Ransburg recommends that all
exterior cleaning be done with non-polar solvents
to prevent a conductive residue on critical components. We also understand that some of these
solvents do not always meet the cleaning needs
of some materials. If conductive polar solvents
are used to clean the applicator components, all
residue must be removed using a non-conductive
non-polar solvent (i.e. high ash Naphtha). If there
are any questions as to what solvents are best for
cleaning , contact your local Ransburg distributor
and/or your paint supplier.
The Vector applicator, air hoses, and uid hose
assemblies should not be submerged or soaked
in solvent. However, the outer surfaces of these
items can be wiped with a suitable cleaning solvent. The items that cannot be soaked are noted
throughout this manual. All electrical components
cannot be cleaned or soaked in any solvents.
W A R N I N G
!
The user MUST read and be familiar
with the safety instructions in this manual.
If compressed air is used in cleaning,
REMEMBER that high pressure air can be
dangerous and should NEVER be used
against the body. It can blind, deafen, and
may even penetrate the skin. If used for
cleaning equipment, the user should wear
safety glasses.
ALWAYS turn the on/off lever on the
power module off prior to cleaning and servicing the equipment.
Be SURE the power is Off and the sys-
tem is grounded before using solvent to
clean ANY equipment.
DO NOT operate a faulty applicator!
When using cleaning solvent, standard
health and safety precautions should apply.
Any solvent used to clean the uid pas-
sages must be discharged into a grounded
container. Use of ungrounded or plastic
containers may cause re or explosion.
AH-08-04.2
NOTE
Use a non-polar solvent wipe as the
nal cleaning sequence for cleaning all
parts.
Cleaning of the exterior surface of the
applicator should be done with non-polar
solvents. If cleaning requires the use of polar solvents, the applicator should be wiped
down with non-polar solvent prior to going
back into use. Using polar solvents will
leave a semi-conductive lm on the surface
of the applicator that will effect efciency
of the applicator and cause damage to the
components.

ROUTINE SCHEDULE
Follow these maintenance steps to extend the
life of the applicator and ensure efcient opera-
tion:
Several Times Daily
• Inspect the air cap for paint accumulation.
Clean as frequently as necessary with a soft
bristled brush and a suitable solvent.
C A U T I O N
!
NEVER remove the uid nozzle assem-
bly while paint is in the applicator or paint
may enter into the air passages. Clogged or
restricted air passages will cause poor atomization and/or electrical shorting. Air passages that are clogged with conductive material
can lead to excessive current output levels
and consequent low operating voltage or
long-term electrical damage. Before undertaking any atomizer maintenance procedure.
Daily (or at start of each shift)
• Verify that ALL solvent safety containers are
grounded!
• Check within 6m (20-ft.) of the point of opera tion (of the applicator) and remove or ground
ALL loose or ungrounded objects.
• Inspect work holders for accumulated coat ing materials (and remove such accumula tions).
• Check that atomizer assembly is clean and
undamaged.
NOTE
Standard electrode is "snap back"
spray wire electrode.
•
Straighten the applicator electrode if necessary.
The applicator barrel MUST be tilted front down
to remove the uid nozzle. Failure to do so may
allow paint to enter the air passages, thereby
reducing airow and damaging the applicator
barrel/cascade. Applicators may be ushed
in lieu of tilting. However, they must be either
ushed or tilted down during nozzle removal!
• Clean all insulating surfaces in the system.
Remove paint accumulation from the exterior
of the applicator with a solvent dampened
cloth.
C A U T I O N
!
NEVER soak or submerge the electrical
components of the applicator, i.e., barrel,
power module, or handle. Damage and failure may occur.
• Clean the uid lter, if used.
Electrical Output Test
1. Turn the paint and/or solvent supply OFF.
W A R N I N G

APPLICATOR REPAIR
C A U T I O N
!
DO NOT allow the uid lines to stand
empty without ushing rst! This will cause
dried paint aking and clogging of the uid
lines, applicator passages, and/or nozzles.
All repairs should be made on a clean, at surface. If a vise is used to hold parts during service
or repair, DO NOT clamp onto plastic parts and
always pad the vise jaws!

FLUSHING PROCEDURES
The uid system should be thoroughly cleaned by
ushing with a clean compatible solvent whenever
a color change is made, or when the applicator
will not be used for an extended period.
1. Turn OFF the control unit/power supply power.
2. Turn the paint supply OFF.
3. Turn the shaping air supply OFF. Bleed all air
from the line.
4. Tilt the applicator down and trigger until it is
clear of paint.
5. Set the trigger stop lever and remove the nozzle
nut, air nozzle, and uid nozzle.
6. Connect the solvent supply.
7. Release the trigger stop and run solvent through
the system until it runs clear.
C A U T I O N
!
If the coating material is fast settling and
the uid lines are not ushed soon enough,
the internal passages may become clogged.
This can lead to excessive downtime for repair.
Weekly
• Check the entire system for damage, leaks,
and paint accumulation.
• Clean the atomizer assembly.
APPLICATOR ASSEMBLY CLEANING PROCEDURE
Routine Cleaning
Equipment Needed
• An appropriate solvent
• Solvent safety container (grounded)
• Small soft-bristled brush
8. Disconnect the solvent supply.
9. Trigger the applicator until it is clear of solvent. After the preceding steps are complete, the
applicator is ready for color change, storage, or
maintenance.
NOTE
If production downtime is to be short,
the uid lines may not require ushing
(depending on the coating material being
used). If the solids in the coating settle
slowly, the lines will not need to be ushed
as soon after shutdown as with fast settling solids. The paint being used and the
length of downtime will determine the need
for ushing. Metallic paint and primer will
require ushing sooner than other types of
coating material.
For efcient electrostatic operation, keep the applicator’s exterior and low voltage/high voltage cable
free of paint accumulation. This prevents the loss
of voltage to ground with a resultant reduction in
transfer efciency.
C A U T I O N
!
Before cleaning the nozzle assembly,
turn the control unit or power supply OFF
and ush the uid line with a compatible solvent until clean. Turn the paint and air supplies OFF. Trigger the applicator to relieve
both uid and air pressures.
24
AH-08-04.2
Ransburg
Vector Solo AA90 Applicators - Maintenance
W A R N I N G
!
Ensure supply pressures have been
bled to zero prior to servicing the applicator.
Failure to do so may cause personal injury.
If the uid nozzle is completely clogged,
triggering the applicator will not release the
pressure. Cover the end of the applicator
with a heavy rag and loosen the nozzle nut
slowly into a grounded catch container.
Any broken or damaged components
should be replaced. Any damage to the
applicator may result in UNSAFE operating
conditions.
1. Turn the paint and air supplies OFF. Relieve
both uid and air pressures. Set the trigger stop
lever.
2. Unscrew the air cap retaining ring completely
from the barrel.
C A U T I O N
!
A wire brush or metal tools 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
the soft brush, soak the part in solvent ONLY
until the deposit can be removed! NEVER
soak the applicator body, barrel, or hook
transformer!
W A R N I N G
!
NEVER wrap the applicator, associat-
ed valves and tubing, and supporting hardware in plastic to keep it clean. A surface
charge may build up on the plastic surface
and discharge to the nearest grounded ob-
ject. Efciency of the applicator will also be
reduced and damage or failure of the applicator components may occur. WRAPPING

Needle Shaft Rebuild
1. Prior to installing the needle shaft, partially ll
the internal bore of barrel with dielectric grease.
2. Fill the inner diameter of the packing tube with
dielectric grease.
3. Insert the needle shaft, rear section rst, into
the packing tube. Rotate the needle shaft while
moving back and forth inside the packing tube
until fully inserted.
4. With your nger, wipe the excess grease from
both ends of the packing tube. Using the excess
grease, apply a thin lm to the outer surface of
the packing tube and to the external o-ring on the
cartridge seal.
NOTE
Be generous with the dielectric grease
when applying it to the packing tube and
needle shaft. This helps to remove air
voids from this chamber. DO NOT apply
so much grease that it creates an air lock
during assembly of the applicator.

The 79870 Test and Maintenance Kit allows the
user to determine the inlet pressure at the base
(handle) of the Vector Solo hand-held applicators.
The Test and Maintenance Kit also allows the user
to test the 79835 Power Module Assembly on the
Vector Solo applicator.
The procedure to test the inlet pressure at the
base (handle) of the Vector Solo applicator is as
follows (see Figures 66 and 67):
1. Connect the left-hand tting of the 79727 Air
Hose to the male inlet of the Test and Maintenance
Kit.
2. Connect the 6" air hose assembly between the
brass tee tting and the gun air inlet.

3. Connect the other end of the air hose to the
regulated air supply.
4. Turn on main air. Trigger the applicator with kV
switch on high (down position). Read the pressure
at the 100 psi pressure gauge. This pressure
should be at least 40 psi with air owing for proper
functioning of the Vector Solo AA90 applicator.
2. Connect the barb tting [5] to the brass tee
tting [1]. Place the tubing [6] on the end of the
barb tting.

7. Connect the 79727 Air Hose to main air.
8. Turn on main air and set the pressure so the
pressure gauge [2] in the 79870 Test and Maintenance Kit reads 25 psi (1.7 bar). The voltage
kV setpoint lever should be in the high voltage
position (down). The digital multi-meter should
read approximately 15 VDC.
9. If the voltage is outside this range, there is a
problem with the power module circuitry. If the
voltage range is acceptable the power module is
operating correctly, and there is an issue with either
the cascade or the wire connections leading to it.
