LOCATION

INSTALLATION

Install the air heater near the applicator, but in an

area outside of the hazardous location. The unit

should be located so that it is not exposed to water,

paints or solvents, and high temperatures. (The

ambient temperature should not exceed 120°F.)

INPUT POWER

Input supply voltage connection should be made

from a fused disconnect. Route the input power

wires through the side of the cabinet. Generally,

conduit should be used for the input power. (Always

comply with national and local electrical codes.)

PNEUMATIC

CONNECTIONS

Use appropriate size piping to connect the air

heater to a filtered inlet source. The air heater

compressed air input is at the bottom of the unit

and is identified as "IN". Connect the heated air

output located at the top of the unit identified as

"hot outlet pipe" to the coating applicator(s) using

1/2-inch OD, nylon 11/12-inch tubing, with proper

pressure rating.

A secondary sensing air supply must be connected

to the pressure switch [8] through 1/4-inch OD

tube fitting [29].

If the unit is being wired directly to the PLC elec-

trical connections, the pressure switch must be

by-passed. (Refer to "Figure 1: Installation Op-

tions" for assistance.)
