8. Remove fluid nozzle [32] by unscrewing
counter-clockwise. Inspect o-ring [30] and all pas-
sages for build up or damage. Clean or replace
as necessary. Lubricate and reinsert o-ring into
applicator barrel and reinstall fluid nozzle. Torque
fluid nozzle to 25 lbs•in (2.82 Nm).
>
There should be a small gap between
the fluid nozzle and the applicator barrel
after tightening.
NOTE
9. After cleaning, insert the electrode assembly
[31] back into the spray head assembly. Apply
Adhesive #222, low strength (purple) thread-locker,
to the threads of the electrode assembly before
reassembly.
10. Screw fluid tip [34] back into place. Hand
tighten first, then with a small wrench, tighten an
additional 30 degrees.
11. Replace air cap locator [33], air cap [35], and
air cap retainer [36].
12. Apply a thin film of petroleum jelly to valve and
needle springs [2] and [3]. Install the springs
back into the end cap and the spray head
assembly.
13. Screw end cap [1] back on.
Current Output Test
1. Clean and blow out all fluid passages with
non-conductive solvent.
2. Remove from robot and perform bench test
using a spare tubing bundle.
3. Turn the control unit power
ON.
4. Activate high voltage and slowly approach the
applicator electrode with ground hook or wire.
5. Monitor the current output on MicroPak. Cur-
rent should rise as ground approaches. At ap-
proximately 85 microamperes, the MicroPak will
shut off. The
OVERCURRENT indicator should
come on.
The spray head can be removed from assembly
as shown in Figure 10a for cleaning and service.
>
The fluid tip [34] should always be
installed and tightened before installing
the needle and valve springs.
NOTE
>
After tightening the fluid tip, always check
to see if the proper gap (1/16") between the
needle nuts and air valve stem occur, before
installng the needle and valve springs back
into the head.
