INSTALLATION

Risk of hazardous bursting or equipment damage. Do not exceed 300 PSI (21 bar) maximum fluid inlet pressure to regulator.

Risk of hazardous bursting or equipment damage. Do not exceed 300 PSI (21 bar) maximum fluid inlet pressure to regulator.

Fluid pressure adjustment range is from

2 psi to 100 psi (0.1 bar to 6.9 bar).

Fluid pressure to regulator inlet is

300 psi (20.7 bar) maximum and 50 psi

(3.5 bar) minimum.

To Regulate Fluid Pressure on Manual

Adjust Models

1. Remove cap nut (1) and loosen lock nut (2).

2. With a 3/32 inch hex key allen wrench, adjust hex key allen set screw (3) for desired pressure setting. Turn set screw (3) clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease pressure.

These regulators may be used with most common coating and finishing materials. However, they are not designed for use with highly abrasive materials.

If used with abrasive materials, frequent and thorough cleaning will be required, and replacement of parts will be increased.

1. Where possible, mount the HGS regulator as shown below with the fluid outlet facing up. This will prevent trapped air from causing erratic operation. Trapped air can result from an "air push" during a color change cycle, or entrapped air in the paint.

Fluid outlet should face upward.

3. Retighten lock nut (2) after desired pressure setting has been established. Replace and tighten cap nut

(1).

To Regulate Fluid Pressure on Tamper

Resistant Models

1. Using T-handle (4B), loosen lock (6).

2. Engage adjusting screw (5) with torx key (4A) and turn adjusting screw until desired pressure setting is reached.

Turn torx key clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease pressure.

3. Using the torx key, hold adjusting screw (5) from turning and tighten lock (6) with the T-handle (4B).

To Regulate Fluid Pressure on Air Pilot

Models

Fluid pressure is controlled by means of air pressure. To actuate fluid flow, a minimum of 12-14 psi air pressure must

be applied to the bonnet. Attach one end of regulated air line to connector (25) and the other end of the air line to a remote regulator. Increase air pressure to increase fluid pressure, and decrease air pressure to decrease fluid pressure.

Fluid pressure remains constant unless air pilot regulator setting is altered.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

Total submersion of the fluid regulator in solvent for cleaning purposes will shorten the life expectancy of the diaphragm.

The frequency with which the fluid regulator should be cleaned will be the same as the rest of the system in which it is being used.

Bayonet Models

When spray gun is removed from service and fluid regulator is not going to be used for a period of time, the bayonet end should immediately be soaked in solvent.

Do not submerge the entire regulator.

This will avoid hardening of material around the ball and seat which may cause leakage when regulator is put back in service. The soaking container should be an approved closed container if hazardous solvents are used.

SERVICE

Pressurized parts cause a risk of injury if disassembled. Shut off and relieve pressure before disconnecting hoses from the fluid regulator.

Cleaning or servicing is required if the regulator does not: regulate fluid, maintain its pressure setting, or leaks fluid. To service regulator, relieve pressures, disconnect regulator from spray gun and hoses from regulator. Disassemble regulator; refer to exploded views. Clean and inspect parts carefully. Replace worn or damaged parts and reassemble regulator.
