PROCESSPROCESS
PROCESS
PROCESSPROCESS
This process is a method for electrostatically
applying coatings to objects. A power supply
produces a high voltage charge which is supplied
to the applicator, creating an electrostatic field
between the applicator and the target object. The
target is electrostatically grounded through its
support which may be either stationary or moving.
A regulated fluid system delivers coating material
to the applicator, where it is atomized forming a
spray mist. There, under the influence of the
electrostatic field, the atomized coating becomes
electrostatically charged. The charged particles
are attracted to and deposited on the grounded
target object. The forces between the charged
particles and the target are sufficient to turn
overspray around and deposit it on the back surface
of the target. Therefore, a higher percentage of
the spray is deposited.

The Evolver 202 spray applicator system consists of four major components:
1. Quick-Disconnect Spray Head
2. Gun Head Mounting Block Assembly
3. Valve Manifold Assembly (Includes the High
Voltage Cascade with a Quick-Disconnect
Ring)
4. Rear Tubing Manifold Assembly (both English
and Metric)
The spray head(s) and valve manifold contain the
fluid, air, and high voltage passages. All fluid
passages contain stainless steel and/or nylon
fittings, compatible with halogenated hydrocarbon
solvents. The robot manifold incorporates stainless steel fluid connections.
The high voltage cascade is entirely encapsulated
with a solvent resistant epoxy. This cascade
generates voltages up to 100 kV fed by a low
voltage cable.
NOTESNOTES

There are three sources for the high voltage
supply to the Evolver 202 applicators:
• MicroPak™ Control Unit (LECU5004)
(for non-FM installations)
• Stand-alone control/power supply unit
(A10406) (for FM installations)
• MicroPak
(for FM installations)
The MicroPak Power Supply Control unit provides
a low voltage signal through the robot manifold to
the spray applicator. The high voltage cascade
located within the applicator converts the low
voltage DC signal to a high voltage electrostatic
output.

The tubing, hose, and low voltage cable come
bundled from the factory. Pull the bundle through
the robot spacer plate and robot wrist carefully to
prevent any cuts on the cable or hoses. Use the
six (6) socket head cap screws (76566-24C)
included with the rear manifold tubing assembly to
attach the rear manifold assembly (79106 or
A10892) to the robot spacer plate (see Table 1).
Connect each signal line as required per "Signal
Identification Tables (English and Metric) Tubing
Bundles" in the "Installation" section.

The robot spacer plate is included with the robot
manifold assembly to increase life of the tubing
bundle. The extra spacing it provides increases
the bend radius of the tubes and decreases the
hose or cable stress at the connector.

If you are currently using an RMA-202 bell
applicator system and want to add the Evolver 202
spray applicator system to spray using the same
tubing bundle, a simple conversion must be made
in order to allow for switching between spray and
bell applicators. Figure 7 shows the recommended
system that should be placed in the bearing air line
between the main air input and the robot manifold
plate. It is suggested that this circuit be placed on
the robot arm. This system should also be used
when the user is implementing the Evolver 202
spray applicator system and plans to use RMA202 bell applicators as well.

In Figure 7, the trigger solenoid must be an
electronically activated, normally closed valve
with exhaust, or a 3-way valve, with 100 psi max.,
24VDC. Typically this solenoid already exists in
the robot arm and can be used in this circuit. The
spray applicator trigger/bearing air select valve
must be a pneumatically activated, normally open
solenoid. A suggested solenoid is ITW P/N 11678-
01. An additional solenoid must be used to activate
the P1T (Paint 1 Trigger) or P2T (Paint 2 Trigger)
valves. If any of these solenoids are located inside
a hazardous area, they must be explosion proof.

The atomization and fan air are turned on by the
trigger line and are controlled by an internal air
valve located in the applicator head. During normal operation with applicator triggered off, there is
a slight bleed of air through the atomization port.

Adjustments are made through the robot PLC or a

pressure required to break up the paint should be
used. Lower atomizing air pressures result in less
overspray and increased transfer efficiency.

Adjusting the fan air increases or decreases the
size of the spray pattern. Increasing pressure
increases pattern size. Pattern adjustment should
be made to suit the size and shape of the object
being painted. This adjustment is made through
the robot PLC or a manually adjustable air regulator.
Air cap atomization and fan pressures should be
set and recorded using an air cap test kit. This
provides a consistent measurement, so initial
settings may be duplicated at any time. (See
"Accessories" in the "Parts Identification" section.)

The Evolver 202 HVLP models, when properly
set-up, are designed to provide maximum transfer
efficiency by limiting air cap pressures to 10 psi
(0.7 bar) (in the U.S., this complies with rules
issued by SCAQMD and other air quality
authorities). Air cap pressures should be measured
with an optional air cap test kit. (See "Accessories"
in the "Parts Identification" section.)

The fluid valves in the Evolver 202 are actuated by
an air signal. The air pressure must exceed 70 psi
(4.8 bar) to assure proper actuation of the valve.
Applying air to the valve actuator turns on the fluid
flow for that valve.
The paint valve controls the paint flow to the
applicator. When actuated, paint flows through
the valve to the coiled fluid tube and into the spray
head.
The dump valve controls the paint flow through the
dump line. When actuated, paint flow is directed to
the dump return line. This provides a method of
rapidly removing paint from the incoming line for
cleaning and/or color change. Normally, the dump
valve is not actuated at the same time as the paint
valve since the paint valve is intended to cause the
fluid to flow to the applicator head at the prescribed
input pressure.
The solvent valve controls the flow of cleaning
solvent to the applicator. When actuated, solvent
flows through the fluid tube and into the spray
head. The solvent valve is not triggered at the
same time as the paint trigger valve to prevent
solvent from flowing backward into the paint line.

The Evolver 202 applicator system has optional
dual purge capability. This means the applicator
can continue to spray paint, at voltage, while side
"B" or "Paint 2" is being flushed or cleaned. The
solvent valve opens and cleans from the coiled
fluid tube and up through the head and out the
nozzle. A second color is then loaded through the
"B" side. Side "A" is then color changed through
the "A" side feed lines to the applicator and valve
ports, while the waste from side "A" is exited
through the dump lines. To operate in the dual

Fluid flow is adjusted through the robot PLC by
varying the pilot pressure to either an exterior or
the on-board fluid regulator within the spray applicator. Fluid pressures from the circulating system
may exceed the maximum fluid pressure rating of
the Evolver 202 applicator. Because of these high
fluid pressures, a manual step-down fluid regulator must be used.

Under no load conditions, the maximum voltage
limit for these spray applicators is 100 kV. Some
painting operations may require different voltage
settings to obtain optimum transfer efficiencies. If
Faraday cage areas are predominant on the item
being painted, a lower voltage setting would aid in
coating these areas.
When not spraying, it is recommended to set back
voltage to 30-40 kV or off between target parts.

The applicator is capable of atomizing paint of
most any desired viscosity. It is recommended to
keep the material viscosity as low as possible.
This allows spraying at lower fan and atomization
air pressures which result in less overspray and
higher transfer efficiency.
> Most paints and solvents, including those
listed in "Polar & Non-Polar Solvents Chart" in
the "Maintenance" section, are toxic to a certain degree and flammable or combustible.
Use them only in a well ventilated atmosphere.
