Pump and Hopper Connections
This procedure applies to mobile systems and rail mount systems supplied
with powder from a feed hopper.
1. Unclamp the hopper lid and take out the vent hose and hose clamps.
Leave the lid off.
2. Unpack the pump mount assembly, pump, powder hose (1/2 in. ID clear
tubing), black and blue air tubing, clamps, and Velcro straps shipped
with the system.
3. See Figure 3-3. Plug the following into the controller:
S 8-mm blue atomizing air tubing (3)
S 8-mm black flow air tubing (5)
S 6-mm blue fluidizing air tubing (8)
4. Mobile systems: See Figure 3-7.
a. Route the atomizing air (4) and flow air tubing (6) through the
grommet (12) on the front panel of the cart tower.
b. Route the fluidizing air (8) tubing through the tower and out the
bottom front.
c. Install the hopper on the cart platform, in between the retainer tabs.
5. All systems: See Figure 3-7. Install the pump (7) into the pump mount
(5) with a slight twisting motion.
6. Connect the black 8-mm flow air tubing to the center fitting (F) on the
pump. Connect the blue 8-mm atomizing air tubing to the upper fitting
(A) on the pump.
NOTE: The pump is equipped with quick-connect couplings that allow
you to quickly disconnect the air tubing when cleaning or repairing the
pump. Pull back on the knurled coupling rings to uncouple them.
7. Connect the 10-mm x 6-mm reducer (10) to the 10-mm elbow fitting on
the hopper fluidizing drum. Connect the fluidizing air tubing (8) to the
reducer.
8. Connect the ring-tong terminal on the green/yellow ground wire (9) to
the ground stud on the side of the fluidizing pan, then either plug the
ground wire into the grounding socket on the cart base, or connect it to a
true earth ground.
9. Install a hose clamp (3) over the end of the vent hose (1) and connect
the hose to the vent stack on the lid. Tighten the clamp to secure the
hose. Route the other end of the vent hose into the spray booth.
10. Refer to Connecting the Powder Hose to the Pump on page 2-8 for
instructions.
