2.0 Correct useThe air cap cleaning unit is utilized for the automatic cleaning of air caps of coating equipment. It is not suitable for the cleaning of manual spraying guns. Only allowed cleaning agents are to be used.

2.1 ApplicationThe air cap cleaning unit is being used as part of a fully automated robot painting installation inside a spaying booth. During its use the air cap cleaning unit has to be safeguarded against manual ac-cess.Theaircapcleaningunitiscertifiedfortheuseinhazardousareasofzones1and2.

2.2 Coating material/cleaning agentsIn the use of electrostatic application system is:Regardingemissions,fire,andexplosionhazardsaswellasotherdangers,thedangerandwarn-ing information provided by the suppliers of the coating materials respectively the cleaning agents, must be observed. In cases of doubt please contact the supplier.

2.3 Safety measurementsWhen working with material whose explosion potential will increase through atomizing (for example whenbrushingwithflammablesolvents),precautionarymeasurementshavetobetakenandthatparticular danger has to be pointed out. In cases of doubt contact the suppliers of the components.

If the air cap cleaning unit is operated together with an electrostatic spraying system it has to be as-sured that after the high voltage has been turned off, all parts that come in contact with the air cap cleaning unit and the cleaning area (see 2.4) have to be discharged to less than 0,24 mJ (equals 60 nC). This has to be documented and revised on a regular basis.

2.4 Suitable premisesDuring the cleaning process (brushing) coating material and cleaning agents get in the surrounding air.Dependingonthecoatingmaterialandcleaningagent,environmental-,fire-,explosion-,andhazards to health might arise.

Therefore the air cap cleaning unit must only be operated in suitable premises (painting booth) with technical ventilation according to EN 12215. It has to be made sure that no cleaning agents can leave the cleaning area and reach the surrounding areas.

Cleaning area: 1m spheric surrounding the opening of the container with the cleaning brush.This also means that the maximum concentration of the used detergent inside the cleaning area shall not exceed 50% of the lower explosion level (LEL).The effectiveness of the technical ventilation has to be insured through special measures.

2.5 Electro-magnetic valveThe electro-magnetic valves for the control of the air cap cleaning unit (build into the control cabi-net), which are not part of the scope of delivery, have to meet the requirements of the area in which they will be installed.

2.6 General requirements for safe operation • Forassuringasafeoperationoftheaircapcleaningunitanditsaccessorytheoperatoroblig-

es to create operating instructions/company rulings regarding this operation manual. These operating instructions have to be provided in a language the employees can understand and have to be published at a suitable place.

• Theseoperatinginstructionshavetocontainthenotethatthiscapcleanershallonlybeoper-ated by instructed staff.

• Awarningsignhastobeplacedatapositionnearthecleaningareainalanguagetheemploy-ees can understand. Such warning sign should have to indicate the most important methods of operation and safety instructions, which have to be respected by the employees, and shall be prominently displayed, completely implemented and accessible. It also has to contain the dangers occurring when spray guns are being cleaned.

2.7 InstructionPrior to the start of work with the cap cleaner it has to be assured that all persons working with the cap cleaner are instructed about the dangers and risks of working with the cap cleaner and its ac-cessory and about all measurements of avoiding these dangers and risks. This instruction has to be repeated at least once a year.

2.8 Deployment of the cap cleaner in potentially explosive atmospheresIt is only allowed to operate the cap cleaner when all protective measures against typical risks and dangers of work are taken. It also has to be assured that protective measures are taken against dangerous electrical shocks, using

2.14 Explosion protection documentAccording to directive 1999/92/EC the plant operator must provide an explosion protection docu-ment, containing the required risk assessment of explosive atmospheres, effective ignition sources, and an estimate of the scale of a potential explosion, irrespective of workforce numbers.

According to article 8 of 1999/92/EC the employer shall ensure that an explosion protection docu-ment is drawn up and kept up to date. This document shall demonstrate in particular

The employer may combine existing explosion risk assessments, documents, or other equivalent reports produced under other Community acts.

3.0 Set up and functionThe air cap cleaning unit consists mainly of a pneumatically driven roller brush that is located inside asupplycontainer–suitableforthefillingwithcleaningagents–andablowingringforblowingoffthe air caps after the brushing process. A pneumatically operated pivoting lid (optional) shuts the opening of the supply container lid when the brush drive is not in use.

Thecleaningagentshavetobefilledinmanually;aballvalveislocatedonthebottomsideofthesupply container for draining of the cleaning agents.

The pneumatic components necessary for the control of the brush drive are located centrally at the side of the tub under a splash guard cover.

The all over cleaning of the spraying equipment air cap is done by moving of the spraying equip-ment alongside the brush axis while the brush is simultaneously oscillating in 180° pivoting move-ments.

RCC Brush

4.0 AssemblyThe optional available support of the air cap cleaning unit is positioned according to the area of op-eration of the spraying equipment or spraying robot and fastened securely.

Note: Makesurepropergroundingisprovided!

If the air cap cleaning unit is not fastened adequately it could come loose during operation for example through vibration. Therefore the position of the brush will change. A safe moving of the brush through the spraying equipment is not guaranteed any longer. It is possible that the cleaning agent will drain uncontrolled.

Expert personnel must perform assembly only.

5.2 Function and settingThe brush drive is turned on over an electric magnet valve (respectively for trial by manual opera-tion). The reverse of the oscillating 180° pivoting motion is caused by a micro ram valve, whereby the impulse valve is reversed.

The brush should make around 160 - 190 complete motions (back and forth) per minute. If the numbers of revolutions differ, they can be adjusted over the exhaust air restrictor valve: turning the slotscrewintheexhaustairrestrictorvalveclockwisewilldecreasethenumberofrevolutions;turn-ing the screw counter-clockwise will increase the number of revolutions.

6.2 Troubleshooting • Spray system is not cleaned correctly:

- Brush worn out => Exchange brush

- Not enough or no solvent inside brush container => Refillcontainerandcheckfrequently => Check taps and close if necessary

- Brush does not move => Check motor, exchange if necessary => Check both tappet valves, exchange if necessary => Motor has no pressure or pressure at motor is too low => Check pressurized-air hoses and pressurized-air supply exchange if necessary

- Brush does not move correctly => Motordoesn’tgetenoughpressure => Check pressurized-air hoses, exchange if necessary => Check motor and tappet valves, exchange if necessary

• Cap cleaner severe polluted:

- Too much solvent inside brush container => Release some solvent. Maximum solvent level shall not exceed upper marking on inside of brush container
