• To help prevent fire and explosion:
• Do not install equipment approved only for a non-hazardous location in a hazardous location.
See model ID label for the intrinsic safety rating of your model.
• Do not substitute system components as this may impair intrinsic safety.
• Equipment that comes in contact with the intrinsically safe terminals must be rated for Intrinsic
Safety. This includes DC voltage meters, ohmmeters, cables, and connections. Remove the unit from the hazardous area when troubleshooting.
High-pressure fluid from dispensing device, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin.
• Do not point dispensing device at anyone or at any part of the body.
• Do not put your hand over the fluid outlet.
• Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.

• Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
• Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
Moving parts can pinch, cut or amputate fingers and other body parts.
• Keep clear of moving parts.
• Do not operate equipment with protective guards or covers removed.
• Pressurized equipment can start without warning. Before checking, moving, or servicing equipment,
Toxic fluids or fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on skin, inhaled, or swallowed.
• Read MSDSs to know the specific hazards of the fluids you are using.
• Store hazardous fluid in approved containers, and dispose of it according to applicable guidelines.
• Always wear chemically impermeable gloves when spraying, dispensing, or cleaning equipment.
332564J

Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information
Isocyanates (ISO) are catalysts used in two component materials.
Spraying or dispensing fluids that contain isocyanates creates potentially harmful mists, vapors, and atomized particulates
• Read and understand the fluid manufacturer’s warnings and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) to know specific hazards and precautions related to isocyanates.
• Use of isocyanates involves potentially hazardous procedures. Do not spray with the equipment unless you are trained, qualified, and have read and understood the information in this manuals and in the fluid manufacturer’s application instructions and SDS.
• Use of incorrectly maintained or mis-adjusted equipment may result in improperly cured material. Equipment must be carefully maintained and adjusted according to instructions in the manual.
• To prevent inhalation of isocynate mists, vapors, and atomized particulates, everyone in the work area must wear appropriate respiratory protection. Always wear a properly fitting respirator, which may include a supplied-air respirator. Ventilate the work area according to instructions in the fluid manufacturer’s SDS.
• Avoid all skin contact with iscocyanates.
Everyone in the work area must wear chemically impermeable gloves, protective clothing and foot coverings as recommended by the fluid manufacturer and local regulatory authority.
Follow all fluid manufacturer recommendations, including those regarding handling of contaminated clothing. After spraying, wash hands and face before eating or drinking.
Cross-contamination can result in cured material in fluid lines which could cause serious injury or damage equipment. To prevent cross-contamination:
B wetted parts.
• Never use solvent on one side if it has been contaminated from the other side.
Exposure to moisture (such as humidity) will cause
ISO to partially cure; forming small, hard, abrasive crystals, which become suspended in the fluid.
Eventually a film will form on the surface and the ISO will begin to gel, increasing in viscosity.
Partially cured ISO will reduce performance and the life of all wetted parts.
• Always use a sealed container with a desiccant dryer in the vent, or a nitrogen atmosphere.
• Keep the ISO pump wet cup or reservoir (if installed) filled with appropriate lubricant. The lubricant creates a barrier between the ISO and the atmosphere.
• Use only moisture-proof hoses compatible with
ISO.
• Never use reclaimed solvents, which may contain moisture. Always keep solvent containers closed when not in use.
• Always lubricate threaded parts with an appropriate lubricant when reassembling.
crystallization varies depending on the blend of ISO, the humidity, and the temperature.
Some materials may become self-igniting if applied too thick. Read material manufacturer’s warnings and Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
10 332564J
Changing the material types used in your equipment requires special attention to avoid equipment damage and downtime.
• When changing materials, flush the equipment multiple times to ensure it is thoroughly clean.
• Always clean the fluid inlet strainers after flushing.
• Check with your material manufacturer for chemical compatibility.
• When changing between epoxies and urethanes or polyureas, disassemble and clean all fluid components and change hoses. Epoxies often have amines on the B (hardener) side. Polyureas often have amines on the A (resin) side.

The Mix Control Set Point register is used to set and adjust the mixing fluid control set point. It also is used as the fluid control set point for pump 1 when running a 1K recipe. It can be changed at any time, and the system will immediately adjust to the new set point.
• If the system is configured for Flow Control this value can be set between 5 and 1600 cc/min for a
2K recipe, and between 5 and 800 for a 1K recipe.
See Fluid Control on
.
• If the system is configure for Pressure Control this value can be set between 0 and the maximum pump pressure in PSI. See Fluid Control on
.

The Job Complete register is used to log the current job remotely. Write a ‘1’ to the register to command the ProMix PD2K to flag a job complete.
(See
Usage Screen, page 67
for more information on
Job Logs and Job Complete.)
PD2K. A job is logged only when a value of ‘1’ is written to this register. It is recommended the automation reset this register by writing a 0 to it at all other times to avoid inadvertently logging a job.*
*** It is recommended to wait at least 500 msec for the
PD2K to process before resetting to ‘0’.
These registers are not used.
The Go to Recipe Number register is used as a queue for the next recipe to be loaded when a recipe change is initiated. A number between 0 and 60 can be written to this register. However, a recipe must be enabled via the ADM before it can be loaded. See

The Clear Active Alarm register is used to acknowledge an alarm remotely so that the system may resume operation. Be sure that the alarm condition has been alleviated. Write a 1 to this register to acknowledge the latest active alarm. If more than one alarm is currently active only the most recent alarm will be acknowledged. A repeated write should be performed to clear any remaining active alarms. See figure 9.
(See
System Errors, page 100
for more information on clearing alarms.)
PD2K. An alarm is cleared only when a value of ‘1’ is written to this register. It is recommended that the automation reset this register by writing a 0 to it at all other times to avoid inadvertently clearing an alarm.*
The Gun 1 Trigger register is used to signal the
ProMix PD2K when the automatic spray device is triggered. This signal should be sent any time the spray device is triggered. The state of this register provides timing for alarm functions and also drives the flow control algorithm.

The Dynamic Command Structure (DCS) is used to 1) access data that requires some form of argument(s) or 2) consolidate data that requires multiple registers. The DCS uses a static set of network communication input and output registers (see
Network Input Data Map (Write/Read), page 36
and
Network Output Data Map (Read Only), page 30 .
Use the following sequence for the DCS.
1.
Write the appropriate command arguments to INPUT REGISTERS 14 – 20. These commands may be written sequentially or sent all at once.
2.
Once all arguments have been passed, write the command ID to INPUT REGISTER 21.
3.
The ProMix PD2K will respond to a valid command by writing a 2 (Acknowledge) to OUTPUT REGISTER 28.
4.
The ProMix PD2K will write appropriate return values to OUTPUT REGISTERS 29 – 36.

Operation Using a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)
Flow control is an optional feature that precisely regulates the flow of material to an automatic spay device, to help ensure adequate coverage and avoid sags or runs in the finish coat. The ProMix PD2K system can control fluid flow by directly controlling the proportioning pumps. The pumps accurately dispense a fixed volume of fluid during each stroke.
For this reason, the flow rate of a given pump is directly proportional to the velocity of the pump. As long as the gun is open and the system is stable, flow control is the most effective method for controlling flow rate.
The flow control system relies on two main inputs for controlling flow rate: Gun Trigger and Control Set
Point.
NOTE: recommends
These recommends that controller.
Alternatively these two inputs can be driven by the network communications, but latency could be an issue for systems requiring precise timing.
See
, for more details on configuring these options for ‘Discrete’ or ‘Network’.
manual gun system.
The ProMix PD2K will directly control the speed of the pump(s) to the programmed flow control set point to maintain accurate flow rate and ratio. The flow control set point is set by Network Communications or the Discrete Input.
The system is considered to be stable when the pressure readings do not fluctuate and the flow rate is maintained. While the system is considered stable it will store (“learn”) the associated pump pressures to a table that is used if the gun trigger signal is lost or removed.
When the gun trigger signal is removed the system automatically switches to pressure control mode to avoid over pressurizing the fluid lines and to allow smooth transition to flow control if the gun trigger signal returns. It also works to maintain a consistent flow rate even though it has transitioned to pressure control mode if the gun trigger signal is inadvertently lost.
The pressure table also is used to predict if the gun has been turned on or off (without a change to the gun trigger input). The flow control system continually monitors the desired outlet pressure compared to the actual outlet pressure. If the actual pressure remains
50% higher than the desired pressure for longer than
10msec, then the system predicts that the gun trigger has been released. If the actual pressure drops below the desired pressure longer than 10msec, then the system predicts that the gun has been triggered.
The gun on/off prediction is used in the flow control algorithm to prevent the fluid pressure from becoming too high or too low due to a system disturbance. For example, if a gun off prediction occurs while the gun trigger input is high, the system will begin to control to the pressure value last stored in the pressure table for the current flow set point.
The pressure table is stored in volatile memory, so the table values will be lost after a power cycle of the
ProMix PD2K controller. This issue is not significant because the system generally is able to recalculate new pressure table values within a few seconds
(depending on the stability of the fluid system).

If a pump failed you could spray pure resin or catalyst without knowing. This should be caught by the Mix No Flow Timeout; the default is 5 seconds.

while the gun is triggered. Setting this time to zero turns the timer off.
Set a higher flow rate or pressure for use while mix filling to decrease the time needed to fill the hose and spray device. Once the spray device is filled, the system will use the target set point as set by the PLC.
The default value is ‘0’. When set to ‘0’, the system ignores the Mix Fill Set Point and instead uses the target set point as set by the PLC.
The value will be a flow rate if Fluid Control is set to ‘Flow’, or a pressure if Fluid control is set to
‘Pressure’.
The Max Flow Rate setting allows you to limit the total flow rate while in Mix mode. Normally, while controlling to the target pressure set point, flow rates may fluctuate slightly due to a number of variations, including ambient conditions or user adjustment of the applicator tip. The Max Flow Rate may be used to ensure a more consistent application of material, and could result in material savings.
The default setting is 0. When set to 0, the system does not limit the flow rate beyond what the pumps are capable of delivering.

Certain fluid stream configurations can benefit from switching from resin to solvent before concluding a mixing/spray cycle. The solvent is dispensed directly behind the resin material and is used to push the resin material (and, as a result, the mixed material) down the fluid path and to the spray device. The dispensed solvent comes at a cost savings over the resin material and also provides a head start on the flushing of the pump and fluid lines before the next color change.
The solvent push feature is available as an option for certain system configurations. See

Solvent may be pushed past the mix manifold and into the mix hose, if needed. To prevent atomizing solvent, it may only be dispensed to a percent of the mix hose volume. The default value is 0%, which will not dispense solvent beyond the mix manifold. The mix hose volume is set by the Gun Hose Length and
Gun Hose Diameter (see
).
If using an electrostatic gun, to reduce the risk of fire and explosion, confirm the mix hose parameters are accurately represented in the settings.
The displayed volume shows the total amount of solvent to be dispensed during the solvent push sequence. This volume includes, at minimum, the total fluid stream volume from the inlet color stack to the mix manifold. Additionally, this volume will include a percentage of the mix hose volume, if set to greater than 0%.
The solvent push sequence is initiated using a soft key on the Spray Screen (see
Spray Screen, page 65 ) or a PLC command (see
ProMix PD2K Network Inputs, page 33
).
Timing is critical to avoid having the solvent push sequence end before the last part has been finished.
The system will go into Standby and must complete a recipe change before it can mix again.

76 332564J
A primary means of maintaining ratio assurance for the ProMix PD2K system is through monitoring of the differential pressure between the A-pump and
B-pump outlets. Ideally, these two pressures would be identical, but factors such as line sizing, viscosity, and mix ratio lead to some variation. Understanding where your system typically operates is imperative when setting up an effective differential pressure check that notifies the user of potential mix ratio inaccuracies while avoiding nuisance alarms.
It is recommended that, once the system is fully installed and ready to use, the user load a recipe and then spray the mixed material. While spraying, note the outlet pressures of both the A and B pumps (per the ADM’s main screen or the PLC) and spray long enough to ensure the pressures have stabilized to a nominal value. The difference between the outlet pressures of the A and B pumps is an established baseline for the Mix Pressure Tolerance set point.
The Mix Pressure Tolerance set point allows the
B-side pump outlet pressure to vary a specified percentage away from the A-side pump outlet (spray) pressure. For example: In the following figure, if the spray pressure (A-side pump outlet pressure) is 100 psi, and the Mix Pressure Tolerance is set to 25%, the B-side outlet pressure is allowed to float between
75 and 125 psi (100 psi ± 25%) without generating an alarm.

It is recommended that you keep the Mix Pressure
Tolerance set point as low as possible to alert the user of anything affecting the mix ratio accuracy.
However, if your system is generating several differential pressure alarms, or will be mixing a wide variety of materials at different mix ratios, you may need to increase the Mix Pressure Tolerance.
Select the sequence for purging the mixed material from the mix hose and spray device. Each stage of the sequence can be set to either ‘A’ or ‘B’.
The solvent corresponding to each material will be dispensed out the spray device for the Gun Purge
Time of the Flush sequence assigned to that material for each stage. See Table 6 for a progression of the successive stages of the purge sequence.
Select the sequence for dispensing material into the mix hose and spray device. The choices are: ‘A then B’, ‘B then A’, and ‘Parallel’, if no fill sequencing is necessary. The fill sequence is typically dictated by the last material used in the purge sequence.
See Table 6 for a progression of the fill sequence following the last stage of the purge sequence.

Select whether to use Standard, static valve mapping, or fully configurable Custom valve mapping. The color change valve mapping is the assignment of the location of the solenoids in the color change control modules. A static, pre-determined map layout makes for an easily predictable and hands-free option. However, an application and user may benefit from laying out the valve mapping on their own for consolidation of equipment, reduced hardware complexity, or simply to lay out valves according to what makes most sense.
See
, for more detailed information.
Select an alternate static valve map for the IS color change modules. This is useful for a system that

ADM. For more information or to see the static map layouts, refer to manuals 332455 and 333282.
By selecting Custom, every color change solenoid may be assigned to any unique, valid control module location. This option offers the ultimate customization as well as the benefit of consolidation of equipment.
Additionally, custom valve mapping enables some advanced color change valve features.

All color change valves require a valid location be assigned for the system to be able to operate properly. There are two columns that determine the solenoid location. The left column is the color change module number. This number must be between 1 and 8 and should reflect the dip switch settings on one of the color change boards (see manual 332455 for more details on dip switch settings). The second column is the solenoid location, and this number must be between 1 and 18. The following figure shows the solenoid location enumeration.

A value of 0 for the control module, or 00 for the solenoid, indicates no previous location assignment and both are also invalid assignments.
If a valve location is considered invalid, any operation that uses that valve will be prevented from running.
This is easily identified on the Recipe screens. If any of the material’s valves are considered invalid, that material will be highlighted red. If any of the valves used in the flush procedure are considered invalid, the flush sequence will be highlighted red.
Figure 59 Flush Screen with pump air/solvent chop
Figure 58 Recipe Screen with invalid valve location
Enabling an air purge valve on the inlet stack of a color pump allows for an air/solvent chop during the pump flush process. The air/solvent chop will replace the wash cycles in a pump flush. Instead, the pump will run at a steady speed for the set number of strokes (full length travel in one direction) while alternating between air and solvent for the desired duty cycles. One pump stroke takes approximately 2 seconds during this phase.
Figure 60 Flush Screen with both air/solvent chops
To enable air/solvent chop for a pump flush, check the Air/Solvent Chop box on the Flush screen.
Because air/solvent chop may also be used for purging the gun, if Mix-at-Wall is enabled, the
Air/Solvent Chop option becomes a pull-down selection where the user may choose None, Pump,

The Gun Trigger Input signals the controller when the gun is triggered. The gun icon on the Advanced
Display Module shows spray when the Gun Trigger
Input is activated.
If a pump fails, pure resin or catalyst could spray indefinitely if the unit does not detect the condition and intervene, which is why the Gun Trigger Input is so important.
If the unit detects through the Gun Trigger Input signal that the gun is triggered, yet one or both of the pumps are not running, a Flow Not Detected Alarm
(F8D1) occurs after 10 seconds (default) and the system goes into Standby.

A ProMix PD2K Automatic system normally operates with a single remote mix manifold and spray device
(see Fig 69), but may be configured to used multiple
(up to three maximum) remote mix manifolds and spray devices (see Fig 70). Having multiple spray devices has the advantage of very fast color changes; the system could have a recipe loaded in each spray device and could then switch between them almost instantly. The PD2K will also track potlife time for multiple mixed recipes.

The Multiple Guns operation mode may be enabled on System Screen 3 by checking the box and then subsequently entering the number of spray devices
Figure 92 Pump Screen 4 Catalyst
Figure 90 System Screen 3 Multiple Guns
Each color in the system must be assigned to a single spray device. Assignment of the color to a spray device is done on the Pump Screen 4 by entering the spray device number next to the color number.
Figure 91 Pump Screen 4 Color
Catalysts may be assigned to a single spray device, shared among multiple spray devices (common), or a mix of both. Only one catalyst per pump may be configured as Common, and because each assignment requires a remote valve, the total number
(including each common assignment) cannot exceed four. To configure a catalyst as common to multiple appropriate spray devices.
Figure 93 Pump Screen 4 Catalyst Common
Recipes can only be set up to use a color and catalyst that are assigned to the same spray device. If the color and catalyst spray device assignments do not match, the recipe will be invalidated and disabled.
See
for more information on invalid recipes.
When common catalysts are used, the system will automatically allocate each spray device assignment to a unique remote catalyst valve (1–4), shown in the following table.
On the left, locate the row that has;
1.
the number of catalyst pumps,
2.
the catalyst valve map selection (see
3.
the appropriate common catalyst configuration for your system.
Follow along the resulting row to the right to find the system’s remote catalyst valve allocation.

With Multiple Guns enabled, the system requires two additional remote solvent valves for each spray device. Because of this, the total number of colors is reduced to 26 and the valve map for the IS color change modules are configured differently. Refer to Color Change and Remote Mix Kit manual (333282) for more detail.

The Spray screen provides the same information and operating capabilities as with a single spray device
(see
Spray Screen, page 65 ). In addition, the Spray
screen shows the contents of each spray device, and allows the user to purge a spray device that is not currently active. (The active spray device is that which is, or was, most recently spraying or loading mixed material, and is highlighted on the left side of the screen.) If manual override is enabled, and and enter the recipe number to be flushed from an inactive gun. This provides the ability to purge a spray device that is currently inactive but loaded with mixed material that has an expired potlife.
The Fill screen operates the same as with a single spray device (see
and trigger the appropriate spray device to which the material is assigned to avoid over-pressuring the system.
When filling a line with a catalyst that is common, the user will also need to select one of the spray devices.
The system will open the appropriate valves and fill material out the selected spray device.
Figure 94 Spray Screen Purge devices may be selected to be purged. This prevents inadvertent purging of a desired loaded recipe.

With Multiple Guns enabled, an additional Run Mode screen is now accessible. This screen will show all recipes that are currently loaded in a spray device that have a non-zero potlife, and the amount of time remaining in the potlife.
If a user wishes to always skip purging the B-side of a particular spray device, or to avoid nuisance purging alarms when no catalyst solvent is plumbed to a particular spray device manifold, it may be for the appropriate Gun number to indicate only single-component recipes are run through that manifold. (Default value is 2K).
that do not have a B-side solvent plumbed to the manifold. If a combination of one-component and two-component recipes are run through a manifold, the system will automatically determine whether the
B-side needs to be purged or can be skipped.

Color change valves may be manually overridden from Maintenance Screen 5 the same as with a single spray device (see
).
For a catalyst configured as common, the user will have to identify which remote valve to cycle by selecting the appropriate gun.

Because each spray device has its own unique remote solvent valves, when overriding a remote solvent valve the user will similarly have to identify the appropriated spray device.
only identifies whether the valve is for the color solvent valve (color pump number) of for the catalyst solvent valve (catalyst pump number).

If the Gun Trigger is configured to ‘Network’,
Input Registers 10, 11, and 12 are used. Review
and
ProMix PD2K Network Inputs, page 33
.
Output Register 26 is used to indicate which gun is currently the ‘active’ spray device.
When command a line fill/flush for a common catalyst from the PLC using Input Registers 01 and 02, the appropriat spray device must be identified and triggered to avoid over-pressurizing the system.
To accomplish this, the common catalysts have a special material number designation. If filling with a common catalyst on pump 2, instead of using material 31 the user will enter 41, 42, and
43 for spray device 1, 2, and 3, respectively.
See
ProMix PD2K Network Inputs, page 33 , and
Line Fill and Flush Sequences, page 42
, for details.
If one of the inactive spray devices is loaded with material and the potlife expires, it may be disired to purge the material immediately, but not change over materials in the pumps. The Purge (Inactive) system command will allow the user to momentarily cease spraying the active gun and purge and inactive gun, then immediately return to spraying with the previously active gun. The user must enter the recip of the inactive gun in Output Register 07 first and then command the system with Output Register 10
(see
Purge (Inactive) Sequence, page 40 ).
