LOW VOLTAGE CABLE INSTALLATION
AND REMOVAL (See “Quick Disconnect
Cables” and “Low Voltage Cable On Ro-
bot” figures)
A low voltage cable is provided to send power
to the high voltage cascade in the atomizer as
well as sending important information during
operation back to the MicroPak controls. One
piece of the cable is a permanent length of ap-
proximately 60-inches (1.5 meters) from the
robot plate end. The connecting Cable can be
ordered in various lengths depending on the
distance required to reach from the robot arm
to the MicroPak controller. The ends of the
cables have a male and female quick discon-
nect end. This provides for a quick and easy
removal of the cable at the robot plate if ser-
vicing or replacement is required.
It is important the quick disconnect fitting be
secured to a good ground source. The
A12241-XX cable is supplied with a ground
cable which can be secured to the bulkhead
connector and the other end to a known
ground source. The cable can also be ground-
ed by attaching the bulkhead connector to a
grounded bulkhead plate. The bulkhead plate
can be nor more than 1/8-inch (3.18mm) in
thickness. The bracket should be made as in
“Low Voltage Cable On Robot” figure to hold
the connector from turning. To mate the con-
nectors, align the raised key section of the ca-
ble on the applicator end with the key groove
of the cable that goes to the MicroPak. Push
the male end into the mating connector until
an audible click is heard. Tug on cable to en-
sure that it is locked in place. To remove this
section from the robot plate, remove the appli-
cator. Locate the set screw holding the
flanged plastic 9 pin connector. Loosen with a
3/32” hex key wrench. Pull the cable out from
the robot plate end. Install new cable In re-
verse direction, align the 9 pin connector with
the alignment mark on the robot plate face
and tighten set screw. Torque 5-10 lbs•in
(0.56-1.13 Nm).
