SHAPING AIR KIT #1
A12874-05/06 Shaping Air Kits (Mono Flex
Air - Direct Charge) A12874-07 Shaping Air Kit
(Mono Flex Air - Indirect Charge) for Use with
All 65mm Bell Cup Only)
As the name implies, shaping air outlet supply
air that is counter to the rotation of the bell cup.
This combination will provide a pattern size from
10-inch to 24-inch (250mm - 610mm) depending
on air flow, fluid flow, and cup rotation speed.
Connection is made using the “blue” 8mm tube
labeled “SAI” on the tubing bundle. The other 8mm
tube labeled “SAO” is “gray” in color and must be
plugged. However, if additional air is required, this
tube can be connected to a secondary controlled
air source. Precautions must be taken that one
does not have a significantly higher pressure than
the other to avoid any back flow. This shaping
air combination can be used with any 65mm bell
cup. (See “Pressure and Flow Data Charts” in
the “Introduction” section.)
NOTE
† A minimum of 70 slpm (2.6SCFM)
should always be kept flowing in the inner
shaping air passage to keep the face of
the applicator clean during manual clean-
ing breaks.
SHAPING AIR KIT #2
A12874-08/09 Shaping Air Kits (Dual Flex Air
- Direct Charge) A12874-10/11 Shaping Air Kit
(Dual Flex Air - Indirect Charge) - for use with
any 65mm Bell Cup Only.
As the name implies, both shaping air outlets
supply air that is counter to the rotation of the bell
cup. This combination will provide a pattern size
from 3-inch to 10-inch (76mm - 254mm) depend-
ing on bell rotation speed, fluid flow, and air flow.
Both sets of shaping air holes are independently
controlled. The inner set of holes are supplied by
connecting the “blue” tube labeled “SAI” on the
tubing bundle to a regulated air source. The outer
set of shaping air holes are supplied by connecting
the “gray” tube labeled “SAO” on the tubing bundle
to a regulated source. The air supplies work in
combination with each other to provide desired
results. This combination of shaping air can be
used with any 65mm bell cup.
NOTE
† A minimum of 70 slpm (2.6 SCFM)
should always be kept flowing in the in-
ner shaping air passage to keep the face
of the applicator clean during manual
cleaning breaks.
