Fire Hazard

Improper or inadequate opera-tioning and maintenance proce-dures will cause a fire hazard.

Protection against inadvertentarcing that is capable of causingfire or explosion is lost if anysafety interlocks are disabledduring operation. Frequentpower supply shutdown indicatesa problem in the system requir-ing correction.

Fire extinguishing equipment must be present inthe spray area and tested periodically.

Spray areas must be kept clean to prevent the ac-cumulation of combustible residues.

Smoking must never be allowed in the spray area.

The high voltage supplied to the atomizer must beturned off prior to cleaning, flushing or maintenance.

When using solvents for cleaning:

Those used for equipment flushing should haveflash points equal to or higher than those of thecoating material.

Those used for general cleaning must have flashpoints above 100°F (37.8°C).

Spray booth ventilation must be kept at the ratesrequired by NFPA 33, 1995 Edition, OSHA andlocal codes. In addition, ventilation must be main-tained during cleaning operations using flammableor combustible solvents.

Electrostatic arcing must be prevented.

GENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTIONGENERAL DESCRIPTION

Aerobell Copes is a indirect (external) chargingelectrostatic applicator for use with groundedwaterborne fluid systems. Indirect charging,known as ion bombardment, is a proven methodof electrostatically charging waterborne materialwithout the need of isolating the fluid system.

High voltage is applied to the six probes (elec-trode) assemblies located on the exterior of thebell assembly. Paint is atomized by the ground-ed bell cup and the electrostatic charge isapplied to the atomized paint particles during thetransfer to a grounded work piece via the elec-trostatic field generated from the six probes.

Using 1/4" O.D. x 1/16" wall tubing (clear see-through), connect a properly filtered air sourceto the fitting marked “BRG” on the manifold.(See Figure 6.) It is recommended to use clear(see through) tubing for bearing air so that anycontamination that gets past the final bearing airfilter will be apparent.

Under the “Operation” section which follows,there is a Caution regarding bearing damage ifthe turbine is running while bearing air is OFF.Since the turbine must not be operated withoutfirst turning ON bearing air, some means of as-suring the presence of bearing air before turningthe turbine “On” must be provided. One methodis by interlocking the turbine drive air to thebearing air (i.e. with an air piloted valve).

> Do not use teflon tape or pipe dope onany air fittings beyond the final air filter forbearing air. The tape or dope may breakfree and cause plugging of the turbine airbearings, and result in turbine failure.

> Provisions should also be made toassure bearing air remains ON during thecoast down period when turbine air isturned OFF. (See "Specifications" onpage 6.)

The following system interlocks are required toprevent equipment damage:

1. System interlock that would shut OFFall applicator pneumatic controls if bear-ing air is disabled. Bearing air shouldremain ON at all times and should beshut OFF only by turning OFF the mainair to the pneumatic control cabinet.

The exhaust from the bearing air is posi-tive pressure acting as a seal air thatmay aid in keeping contaminates fromentering the turbine assembly. Bearingair should only be disabled for applicatoroff-line (out-of-booth) maintenance andonly after the "coast down" time of threeminutes.

> When the turbine air is turned OFF,the turbine will continue to operate or"coast down" for about two minutes.Provisions should be made to assure thatthe operator waits at least three minutes,after shutting OFF the turbine air, beforeshutting OFF the main air supply.


LN-9230-00


1313131313

2. System interlock that would allow fluidflow only when the bell cup is spinning(turbine drive air ON) and must be shutOFF if turbine drive air is lost or dis-abled. It should not be possible for thecoating material to be sprayed unlessthe turbine is spinning or in bypassmode for checking fluid deliveries.

> The bell assembly must be removedwhen making fluid flow checks. If thepaint is turned ON when the bell is mount-ed on the motor shaft and not rotating,paint will enter the shaft and possiblydamage the air bearing. Normally pneu-matic interlocks will not allow the paint totrigger ON when the turbine air is OFF.


> The coating material must never beturned ON unless the bell cup is mountedon the motor shaft and rotating at a speedhigh enough to ensure dissipation of allmaterial supplied.


3. System interlock that would shut OFFthe supply of drive air to the turbine ifbearing air is lost or falls below 60psi atthe applicator. If bearing air drops below60psi at the turbine, the turbine drive airwill automatically shut OFF. A bearingair return connection is provided at theapplicator and is used to supply a signalto the pneumatic interlock located in theatomizer module or equivalent. Theports are interconnected so either maybe used for supply or return to the aircontrol cabinet.

> Operating the turbine with bearing airpressure below 60psi (measured atturbine inlet) may cause bearing damage.


4. System interlock that would not allowthe turbine to exceed the maximumrated intermittent speed and shut OFFturbine drive air if fiber optic feedback islost or disabled when used with closedloop speed control system. The air inletpressure determines the speed of theturbine and excessive speed will causeair turbine damage.

> Pneumatic input to the turbine air inletmust be controlled and prevent the turbinefrom exceeding the maximum ratedintermittent speed of 60,000rpm. (See"Specifications" on page 6.)


5. If the Aerobell Copes unit is mountedwith the bell cup facing up, a deviceshould be provided to rotate the applica-tor into a horizontal position during main-tenance.

Shaping air is used to shape the spray pattern.The lower the pressure, the wider the patternand conversely, higher pressures result innarrower patterns. Shaping air does not helpatomize the material, but does assist in the pen-etration of atomized particles into cavity areas.Shaping air should be kept at a minimum, con-sistent with coating requirements. Excessiveshaping air may assist some atomized paintparticles to blow by the target not allowing full“wrap”, or causing paint particles to bounceback onto the atomizer.

MAINTENANCEMAINTENANCEMAINTENANCEMAINTENANCEMAINTENANCE

In addition to the above Warning, which relatesto potential safety hazards, the following infor-mation must be observed to prevent damage tothe equipment.

> Electrical shock/arcing and potentialfire hazards can exist during mainte-nance. The high voltage must be turnedOFF before entering the spray area andperforming any maintenance procedures.Spray booth exhaust fans(s) shouldremain ON while cleaning the equipmentwith solvents.

> Never touch the atomizer bell while itis spinning. The front edge can easily cutinto human skin. Make sure the atomizerbell has stopped spinning before attempt-ing to touch it. Wait at least three minutesafter turbine drive air is OFF beforetouching the bell.

> Do not immerse the Aerobell Copesturbine in solvent or other liquids. Turbinecomponents will be damaged.

> Bearing air must be ON during allcleaning procedures.

> Do not spray the Aerobell Copes unitwith a solvent gun for cleaning. Dousingor spraying the applicator and AerobellCopes components with solvent beforewiping will not help to loosen paint.

The precise sequence of flushing paint from thesystem will vary according to the type of colorvalve arrangement used and other automaticfeatures built into the system. Follow these ba-sic procedures when cleaning:

> Using an atomizer bell with paint buildup will cause a bell imbalance. An imbal-anced bell may cause bearing damageand turbine failure. Also, any paint resi-due caught between the tapered surfacescan prevent the bell from seating properlyand result in an imbalanced condition.

> Never install an atomizer bell onto theshaft without cleaning the fluid tube tip.Paint build-up on the tip may get caught inthe thread relief of the bell during installa-tion.

CLEANING PROCEDURESCLEANING PROCEDURESCLEANING PROCEDURESCLEANING PROCEDURESCLEANING PROCEDURES 1. Verify high voltage is OFF. The highvoltage must be turned OFF before per-forming any maintenance.

2. With the bearing air and turbine air ON,flush paint out with solvent. Flushingshould be done before any break in pro-duction. If the Aerobell Copes ismounted facing up, rotate to a horizontalplane before flushing or cleaning.

3. Flushing should be done with the atom-izer bell installed. The bell includes a selfcleaning feature, and the bell will nor-mally be fully cleaned with flushing.However, if there is any remaining paintbuild up on any areas of the bell afterflushing, the bell should be removed andcleaned by hand (see 4 below).

4. Clean the bell by soaking in an appropri-ate solvent as long as necessary toloosen paint. Use a soft bristle brushdipped in solvent to remove paint. Makesure all signs of paint are removed. SeeCaution below. Rinse and dry bell.

5. Before re-installing the bell onto theshaft, check the tapered mating sur-faces of the turbine shaft and bell for anypaint residue. Clean any residue. SeeCaution below.

LN-9230-00

6. Paint or other contamination on the sur-faces of the equipment may cause highvoltage reduction and poor transfer effi-ciency. A schedule must be developedfor equipment maintenance (cleanli-ness). However, care must be takenduring cleaning. The electrode needlemust be straight and sharp. It is recom-mended that the electrode tip be cleanedusing a mild solvent and a soft bristlebrush. Clean the exterior surfaces ofthe Aerobell Copes as follows (seeWarning below).

a). All external surfaces may becleaned using a mild solvent andlint free rags to hand wipe the Aero-bell Copes. Turbine drive air mustbe OFF, but leave shaping air andbearing air ON. Be careful not todrip solvent into the opening behindthe bell. (See step #1.)

b). If conductive, polar solvents areused to clean the Aerobell Copesunit all residue must be removedusing a non-conductive non-polarsolvent. (i.e., high flash naphtha.)(See step #1.)

c). Do not spray the Aerobell Copesunits with a solvent gun used forcleaning. The cleaning fluid underpressure may aid conductive mate-rials to wick into hard to clean ar-eas or may allow fluids to be forcedinto the turbine assembly. (Seestep #1.)

> To reduce the risk of fire or explosion,OSHA and NFPA-33 require that solventsused for exterior cleaning be non-flam-mable (flash points higher than 100°F /37.8°C). Also, since electrostatic equip-ment is involved, these solvents shouldalso be non-polar. Examples of non-flammable, non-polar solvents for wipedown are: amyl acetate, methyl amylacetate, high flash naphtha and mineralspirits.

VIBRAVIBRAVIBRAVIBRAVIBRATION NOISETION NOISETION NOISETION NOISETION NOISE

If the Aerobell Copes is vibrating or making anunusually loud noise, it usually means there isan imbalance situation. The atomizer bell mayhave dried paint on it, or the bell may be physi-cally damaged, or there may be paint trappedbetween the bell and shaft preventing the bellfrom properly seating. If any of these conditionsexist, they mustmustmustmustmust be corrected. Excessive im-balance caused by one of these conditions mayresult in bearing damage and turbine failure.Warranty does notdoes notdoes notdoes notdoes not cover failure caused by im-balanced loading conditions.

To determine if the bell is dirty or damaged, re-move the bell and turn the turbine ON. If thenoise is eliminated, the bell is the problem. If thenoise continues, the turbine may be damagedand should be inspected. Do notnotnotnotnot continue tooperate a noisy turbine.

The pressure differential indicator provides avisual indicator that pops up (becomes morevisible) as the filter element becomes plugged.

Replace the filter elements when the visual indi-cator becomes visible, don’t wait until it pops upfully. As the elements become plugged, theirefficiency drops. The frequency of filter elementchange will depend upon the quality of the plantair. But it is recommended that all elements bereplaced at least every 4 to 6 months.

In plants where heavy amounts of oil and mois-ture vapor are present in the air lines, a refriger-ated air dryer may be necessary.

The Aerobell Copes is designed to give depend-able service and extended life. One of the mostimportant factors in realizing long life is the qual-ity of air. It is therefore essential for the user toclosely monitor the quality of their air and toproperly maintain the air filters by replacing thefilter elements as often as necessary. (Replaceelements at least every 4-6 months or more of-ten.)
