6.
The floor of the spray area: The floor must be electrically conductive and grounded. Do not cover the floor with cardboard or any non-conductive material which would interrupt grounding continuity.
7.
All electrically conductive objects or devices in the spray area: They must be properly grounded.
1.
After grounding the system, check the resistance between the ground plate (311/312) and a true earth ground. Refer to Fig. 8, page 11. The resistance must be less than 20 ohms.
2.
Measure the resistance between the isolation stand grounding grate (402) and the ground terminal plates (311/312). Refer to Fig. 8. The resistance must be less than 20 ohms.
Install the Fluid Supply Unit
1.
Place the fluid supply unit (J) on the isolation stand grounding grate (402). See Fig. 8, page 11.
2.
Connect the c-clamp of the 3 foot (0.9 m) fluid supply cable (405) from the isolation stand terminal block (404) to a metal part of the fluid supply unit
(J). See Fig. 8.
NOTE: The isolation stand and the fluid supply unit are grounded when the voltage is discharged through the voltage control.
3.
Install a bleed-type air regulator (H) and shut-off valve (M) on the fluid supply unit (J) to control and shut off air pressure to the fluid supply unit. See
Fig. 1, page 6.
Check the System Grounding
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
If you are checking the grounding after the system is fully installed, make sure the air to the system is turned off by disconnecting the air line interlock before checking the grounding. If the gun has been operated, follow the
Voltage Discharge Procedure on page 17. This will help ensure there is no voltage to the system and help prevent electric shock.
WARNING
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Trapped air can cause the gun to spray unexpectedly, which could result in a serious injury, including splashing in the eyes or on the skin. Install the bleed-type air regulator and shut-off valve so trapped air will be relieved after the regulators or valves are closed.

Installation
Install the Air Manifold Assembly
Mount the air manifold assembly (1) on the outside of the safety fence (L). See Fig. 10.
Install the Air Line Interlock
Check and follow all local, state, and national codes regarding air exhaust velocity requirements. High velocity air exhaust will decrease the operating efficiency of the electrostatic system. The minimum allowable air exhaust velocity is 60 feet/minute
(19 linear meters/minute).
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
The air line interlock helps to prohibit personnel from making contact with the components before the system voltage is discharged. To reduce the risk of an electric shock, the gun turbine air supply must be interlocked with the isolation system to shut off the turbine air supply anytime the enclosure or safety fence is opened. Do not tamper with or bypass the air line interlock.
Connect the 3/8 inch I.D. air line interlock air hose (5) between the grounded main air line (A) and the air manifold quick-disconnect fitting (G). See Figs. 9 and

Operation
Voltage Discharge Procedure Pressure Relief Procedure
WARNING
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
The system pressure must be manually relieved to prevent the system from starting or spraying accidentally. To reduce the risk of an injury from accidental spray from the gun, splashing fluid, or moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you: are instructed to relieve the pressure, stop spraying, check or service any of the system equipment, and install or clean the spray nozzles.
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
The isolated fluid supply is charged with high voltage until the voltage is discharged. Contact with the charged components of the isolation system or spray gun will cause an electric shock. To avoid an electric shock, follow the Voltage Discharge Procedure: when instructed to discharge the voltage, before cleaning, flushing, or servicing the system equipment, before approaching the gun, and when opening the safety fence.
1.
Turn off all the air to the spray gun except the cylinder air, which triggers the gun. If an air pilot regulator is used in the system, the air pressure is needed at the regulator air inlet.
2.
Follow the Voltage Discharge Procedure, at right.
3.
Turn off the fluid supply to the gun.
4.
Trigger the gun into a grounded metal waste container to relieve fluid pressure.
5.
If an air pilot regulator is used in the system, turn off the air pressure at the regulator air inlet.
6.
Relieve fluid pressure in the fluid supply equipment as instructed in its instruction manual.
7.
Turn off the main air supply by closing the bleedtype master air valve on the main air supply line.
Leave the valve closed until you are ready to spray again.
To discharge the voltage:
1.
Turn off the turbine air to all of the spray guns connected to the isolated fluid supply unit.
2.
Disengage the interlock air hose from the quickdisconnect fitting (G). See Fig. 12, page 18. This will turn off the turbine air to the gun and trigger the voltage control quick-dump switch to discharge the electrical charge.
3.
Enter the safety fence area and remove the grounding rod (7) from the fence (L). Grasp the grounding rod by the hook end of the handle.
Touch the exposed wire of the grounding rod to a metal surface of the fluid supply unit (J) as shown in Fig. 12. If an arc is detected, correct the problem before doing anything further with the system.
See Troubleshooting on page 20.
4.
Before approaching the spray gun, verify that there is no voltage at the gun by touching a grounded rod to the gun electrode. If an arc is detected, verify that steps 1 to 3 have been completed correctly.
Before re-starting the system:
5.
After cleaning or servicing is complete, make sure that the fluid supply cable (405) and isolation stand cable (406) are properly connected. See Fig. 12.
6.
Exit the safety fence (L), close the safety fence gate (R), and reconnect the interlock air line to the quick-disconnect fitting (G).
