8.10 AUTOMATIC ELECTROSTATIC SYSTEM SET FOR ELECTROSTATIC GUN GM5000
OPTION
The TC VM5000 automatic electrostatic system set serves as an additional safety device for
the safe use of the TwinControl 2K system with a GM 5000 electrostatic gun. However, the
operator has a duty to proceed in compliance with the following instructions.
Four possible operating states of the TwinControl system:
1. Paint lling
Switch o the electrostatic system.
2. Spraying mode
The electrostatic system is enabled.
3. Work interruption (stop)
Switch o the electrostatic system.
4. Flushing
Switch o the electrostatic system.
8.10.1 COMMISSIONING AND SETTINGS
Perform commissioning and parameter settings as described in the operating manuals for
the electrostatic guns and control units.
Settings on the pressure switch
The pressure sensor is set to the lower switching point of 2 bar at the factory. If the switching
point setting needs to be adjusted, proceed as described in the assembly manual for the
automatic electrostatic system set (order no. 2334831).
Settings on the VM5000 control unit
Device conguration settings must be undertaken on the VM 5000 control unit.
Please follow the safety instructions and instructions in the VM 5000 operating manual.
Undertake the device conguration settings in the VM 5000:
C11: Set remote enable to on.
Function test
After commissioning, a function test is required in accordance with the assembly manual
for the automatic electrostatic system set, order no. 2334831.
8.10.2 PAINT FILLING
Safety precautions:
Before product can be lled with the TwinControl system, the electrostatic system on the
VM 5000 control unit must be switched o manually. This ensures that under no circumstances
will solvent be sprayed if the electrostatic system is switched on. The electrostatic system can
cause ignitable solvent-air mixtures to explode.
1. Switch o the electrostatic system on the VM 5000 control unit manually as described
in the VM 5000 operating manual.
2. Perform product lling as described in this operating manual (TwinControl). The "Work"
illuminated display ashes during lling.
3. When the lling process is complete, the illuminated display "Work" is lit up continuously.
Attention:
It must be ensured that the lling quantity is set correctly on the system. At the end of the
lling process, the product hose must be lled with product that can be sprayed up to the
end of the gun nozzle. In other words, product that can be sprayed (without solvent) must
come out of the gun nozzle.
