Gun Setup

12. Set the air pressure

.

A. Atomizing air is not used in the UNICARB process.

Close the air control valve (43) by turning it fully
clockwise.

B. Turn the ES ON-OFF lever (26) to ON.

C. Make sure the fluid supply is shut off.

D. Trigger the gun and adjust the air pressure with the

gun air regulator (H); use the Recommended Air
Hose Inlet Pressure
chart, below, as a guide.

NOTE: Using higher than recommended air pressures
can reduce the life of the turbine/alternator. Lower
pressures can be used but may reduce electrostatic
wrap.

E. Check the voltage output of the gun using a high

voltage probe and meter.

NOTE: The gun’s normal high voltage reading is 60 to
70 KV. If a ball end high voltage probe is used, the gun
voltage will rise to about 85 KV. This will happen with
all resistive electrostatic guns.
