Warning
WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin. This may look like just
a cut, but it is a serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical treatment.
•
•
•
•
•
Do not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
Do not put your hand or fingers over the gun fluid nozzle.
Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
Do not “blow back” fluid; this is not an air spray system.
ing, or servicing equipment.
•
•
•
•
•
Use lowest possible pressure when flushing, priming, or troubleshooting.
Never spray without tip guard and trigger guard installed.
Engage trigger lock when not spraying.
Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
Check hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. High pres-
sure hose cannot be recoupled; replace the entire hose.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Solvent and paint fumes in work area can ignite or explode. To help prevent fire and explosion:
•
•
Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
Eliminate all ignition sources, such as pilot lights, cigarettes and plastic drop cloths (potential static
arc).
•
•
•
•
•
Do not plug or unplug power cords or turn lights on or off when flammable fumes are present.
Keep the work area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.
Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when triggering into pail.
Ensure main power is off and heater is cool before flushing or servicing heater. Do not turn on heater
until fluid lines are clear of solvent.
•
•
Use only grounded hoses.
If there is static sparking or you feel an electric shock, stop operation immediately. Do not use
equipment until you identify and correct the problem.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Improper grounding, wiring, or usage of the system can cause electric shock.
•
All electrical wiring must be done by a qualified electrician and comply with all local codes and regu-
lations.
•
•
Connect only to grounded power source.
Turn off and disconnect power at the main switch before disconnecting any cables and before servic-
ing equipment.

Selecting Tubing
WARNING
Fluid loses some heat through the tubing or hose
between the heater and spray gun. Locate heater close
to the spray area to minimize heat loss through plumb-
ing.

Select system components that meet temper-
The chart in FIG. 2 shows a heat loss curve for 3 com-
mon types of tubing.
ature and pressure ratings listed in Technical
range is adjustable from 84-220°F
(29-104°C).
Chart Notes:
•
The greater the flow rate, the less the heat
loss.
•
•
Locate heater away from all flammable mate-
rials and where operators will not come in
contact with hot metal surfaces.
•
Foam-insulated steel tubing and high pres-
sure airless paint hose retain heat best. Insu-
lated tubing and hose are more expensive,
but higher costs are commonly offset by lower
operating costs.
Insulate and/or label lines and components
exiting heater that may become hot.

Install a pressure relief valve (X) pre-set to
relieve pressure when it exceeds the system

and not allow for expansion. If a fluid regulator
is installed between the heater and gun, never
use it as a shutoff device.

Installation
To find your fluid’s Under-Boil temperature:
Determining Proper Fluid
Temperature
1. Pour a small sample into a heat-proof container.
2. Measure and record the fluid temperature and vis-
cosity using a No. 2 Zahn cup.
CAUTION
3. Heat water in a large container to 200°F (93°C).
Place the sample in the water.
Operating the heater at its highest setting, over 180°F
(82°C), for long periods of time decreases the heater
life and can cause fluid to dry out; which can clog the
heater and result in a poor finish.
4. At every 10° temperature rise, measure and record
the viscosity and temperature. Do this until solvents
start boiling off and the viscosity starts to level off,
usually 160-170°F (71-77°C).
Use the lowest temperature setting possible for maxi-
®
5. To find the temperature to use in your Under-Boil
system:
temperature on reducing viscosity. Note that most of the
viscosity reduction occurs by 130°F (55°C).
a. Subtract the lowest viscosity reading from the
highest one.
Under-Boil is the Graco method of hot, airless spraying
where the fluid is heated to a temperature just under the
boiling point of its most volatile solvent.
b. Multiply the result by 0.90.
c. Subtract the result from the highest viscosity
reading. Find this number on your temperature
and viscosity records.

Temperature
FIG. 10: Effect of Temperature on Viscosity
reducing two fluids to a sprayable viscosity, between 20
and 34 seconds using a No. 2 Zahn cup.
Once the fluid is reduced to about 34 on the chart, vis-
cosity reduction begins to level off and temperature will
not significantly improve sprayability (it only uses more
energy).
Note that temperature has more of an effect on high
solid fluids than on thin enamels. That is, for the same
10° temperature rise, the viscosity of the high solid fluid
is reduced more than the enamel. This means the high
solid fluid is temperature sensitive, and you need to take
this into consideration when planning your system.

Read warnings, page 4.
Follow Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop
spraying, and before cleaning, checking, or servicing
equipment.
The heater was tested with lightweight oil, which needs
to be flushed out before using the equipment. Ensure
main power is off and heater is cool before flushing. Use
a compatible solvent, and follow flushing instructions in
your fluid supply and spray gun manual. Do not turn on
heater until fluid lines are clear of solvent.
1. Engage the gun safety lock.
2. Shut off main power to the heater.
3. Circulate fluid for at least 10 minutes to cool the
heated fluid and heater.
Priming System
4. Shut off all air and fluid supplies.
5. Disengage the safety lock.
1. Do not turn on the heater yet.
2. If using an airless spray gun, do not install a spray
tip yet.
6. Hold a metal part of the gun firmly to a grounded
metal pail, and trigger the gun to relieve pressure.
3. Start the pump according to the instructions sup-
plied with it.
7. Engage the safety lock.
8. Have a container ready to catch the fluid, then open
the fluid drain valve.
4. Turn the system director valve (U) to circulate, and
circulate fluid for several minutes.
5. Open the spray gun (Q) at the last outlet to prime
the line. Repeat for all gun stations.
6. Engage the gun safety latch.
7. Shut off the air supply to the pump.
9. Install the gun spray tip.

(0.30-0.35 liter/min).
1. Adjust pump pressure and heater setpoint to the
lowest settings needed for good fluid atomization.
3. After 10 minutes, read the temperature on the ther-
