Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information
Isocyanates (ISO) are catalysts used in two component materials.
Some materials may become self-igniting if applied too thick. Read material manufacturer’s warnings and Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
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.
3A4186B 9
Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information
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.
crystallization varies depending on the blend of ISO, the humidity, and the temperature.
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.
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.

Important Acid Catalyst Information
The PD2K MC4002 Proportioner is designed for acid catalysts (“acid”) currently used in two-component, wood-finishing materials. Current acids in use (with pH levels as low as 1) are more corrosive than earlier acids. More corrosion-resistant wetted materials of construction are required, and must be used without substitution, to withstand the increased corrosive properties of these acids.
Acid is flammable, and spraying or dispensing acid creates potentially harmful mists, vapors, and atomized particulates. To help prevent fire and explosion and serious injury:
• Read and understand the acid manufacturer’s warnings and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) to know specific hazards and precautions related to the acid.
• Use only genuine, manufacturer’s recommended acid-compatible parts in the catalyst system (hoses, fittings, etc). A reaction may occur between any substituted parts and the acid.
• To prevent inhalation of acid 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 acid manufacturer’s SDS.
• Avoid all skin contact with acid. Everyone in the work area must wear chemically impermeable gloves, protective clothing, foot coverings, aprons, and face shields as recommended by the acid manufacturer and local regulatory authority. Follow all acid manufacturer recommendations, including those regarding handling of contaminated clothing. Wash hands and face before eating or drinking.
• Regularly inspect equipment for potential leaks and remove spills promptly and completely to avoid direct contact or inhalation of the acid and its vapors.
• Keep acid away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Do not smoke in the work area. Eliminate all ignition sources.
• Store acid in the original container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and away from other chemicals in accordance with acid manufacturer’s recommendations. To avoid corrosion of containers, do not store acid in substitute containers. Reseal the original container to prevent vapors from contaminating the storage space and surrounding facility.
3A4186B 11
Important Acid Catalyst Information
Acid catalysts can be sensitive to atmospheric moisture and other contaminants. It is recommended the catalyst pump and valve seal areas exposed to atmosphere are flooded with ISO oil, TSL, or other compatible material to prevent acid build-up and premature seal damage and failure.
Acid build-up will damage the valve seals and reduce the performance and life of the catalyst pump. To prevent exposing acid to moisture:
• Always use a sealed container with a desiccant dryer in the vent, or a nitrogen atmosphere. Never store acids in an open container.
• Keep the catalyst pump and the valve seals filled with the appropriate lubricant. The lubricant creates a barrier between the acid and the atmosphere.
• Use only moisture-proof hoses compatible with acids.
• Always lubricate threaded parts with an appropriate lubricant when reassembling.

The booth control is the main control device used by the operator for daily painting functions including: changing recipes, signaling job complete, reading/clearing alarms, and placing the system in
Standby, Mix, or Purge mode. It is typically mounted inside the booth or near the painter. The PD2K Dual
Panel has two booth controls, one for each mix unit.
The booth control displays the recipe in the following formats:
• R-xx (active recipe)
• P-xx (recipe loaded in the pumps)
• G-xx (recipe loaded in the gun)
Each booth control display circulates through the recipe and error status that applies to that mix unit:
• Displays the recipe number (R-xx) when ready to spray (the pumps and gun are loaded with the same recipe). If the display is on steady and does not show recipe 0 or 61, the system is ready to spray. (Recipe 61 indicates an unknown material.)
• If the gun is loaded with one recipe (G-xx) and the pumps with another (P-xx), the display will alternate between the two recipes.
• If an alarm occurs, the alarm code is displayed and the red Alarm indicator will flash until acknowledged. After the alarm is acknowledged, the LED will be on steady and the recipe number will alternate with the code.
Press Enter once to identify to which mix unit the booth control is tied.
Press and hold Standby the pumps on or off.

A primary means of maintaining ratio assurance for the ProMix PD2K system is through monitoring of the differential pressure between the A-pump outlet and the B-pump outlet. Ideally these two pressure would be identical, but factors such as line sizing, viscosity, and mix ratio will lead to some variation. Understanding where your system typically operates is imperative to setting up an effective differential pressure check that will notify the user when something has caused the accuracy of the mix ratio to come into question, but also not generate nuisance alarms.
It is recommended that once the system is fully installed and ready for use, that the user load a recipe and spray mixed material. While spraying, take note of the outlet pressures of both the A and B pumps
(This can be seen on the main screen of the ADM), spray long enough that the pressures have stabilized to a nominal value. The difference between the outlet pressures of the A and B pump are 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 percent away from the A-side pump outlet (spray) pressure. As an example, if the spray pressure
(A-side pump outlet pressure) is 100 psi, and the Mix
Pressure Tolerance is set to 25%, then the B-side outlet pressure is allowed to float between 75 psi
(100 psi - 25%) and 125 psi (100 psi + 25%) before generating an alarm.
If, during operation the system has generated a lot of differential pressure alarms, or if it will mix a wide variety of materials and at different mix ratios, the
Mix Pressure Tolerance may have to be increased.
Otherwise it is recommended to maintain this set point as tight as is possible to alert the user that something might be affecting the mix ratio accuracy.

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.
3A4186B 53
For a PD2K system that has color change, the user has an option for how the control solenoids are mapped on the control modules. Selecting Standard
(default) will use the traditional, static valve mapping.
The static maps are laid out logically and established for retro-fitting. If Standard is selected no additional set up for the color change valves is required at the
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.

Figure 51 Pump Screen, Valve Assignment
This screen allows the user to assign each individual color change valve solenoid in the system to a unique more than one pump. They will show up on the valve list for all pumps to which they apply.
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.

Figure 53 Pump Screen, Valve Assignment with duplicates
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 54 Recipe Screen with invalid valve location
Figure 56 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,
Gun, or Both. If air/solvent chop is enabled for the gun purge, all gun purge parameters will appear on the right side, and pump flush parameters are on the left side. The following parameters apply to the pump flush. For details on air/solvent chop for the gun, see
.
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.
Set the air chop duty cycle for the chop phase of the pump flush.

To acknowledge a deviation or clear an alarm, press on the Advanced Display Module or on the Booth Control.
The air flow switch (AFS) detects air flow to the gun and signals the controller when the gun is triggered.
The gun icon on the Advanced Display Module shows spray when the AFS 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 AFS is so important.
If the unit detects through the AFS 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
