Hour Use Meter
All Power Series turbines are fitted with an hour use meter (B).
Use this meter in conjunction with the Record of Turbine
Maintenance at the end of this manual. Using the hour meter will
help you maintain your turbine better and keep your system
running in good condition.

3 Apollo HVLP Turbines
Each
TrueHVLP™
Turbine Unit offers the finisher a maximum operating pressure. This pressure is determined by the size
and output of the unit you have selected. The maximum available pressure will have a direct bearing upon the viscosity of
the fluid that you choose to spray. Atomizing pressure and fluid viscosity directly relate to the
efficiency
of the equipment
operation and the quality of the results that you will achieve.
The available air volume and pressure at the air cap of the spray gun will meet the delivery of fluid coming out of the nozzle
to create a fine mist called
atomization.
This mist travels directly to your work piece where it blends together to form a
connected wet film. Achieving a smooth, level surface will depend on the proper relationship between available atomizing
pressure, the viscosity of the coating being applied and the properties of the coating and the size of the needle, nozzle and
air cap used.
