Startup

This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from
pressurized fluid, such as skin injection and
splashing, keep fingers and other body parts away
from the spray tip.
To avoid injury from toxic fluids or fumes, such as
splashing in the eyes or on skin, wear appropriate
personal protective equipment.
To start the system for the first time, follow the steps
below.
1. Make sure the air line and the cables are correctly
connected to the system.
2. Locate the Power Switch (BD, page 9) at the left of
the PR-Xv Control Box (G, page 7) and turn the
power on.
3. Press the Control Power on Button (BB, page 9) to
open HMI displays.
4. Go to the Advanced Screen, then select 'A Inlet Off'
and 'B Inlet Off' to turn on Inlet Valves (AE, page 8).

5. Adjust the Pressure Regulating Valve (C, page 7) so
the air pressure provided by is at least 80 psi (0.6
MPa, 6 bar), and no higher than 100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7
bar).
NOTE: If needed, add the pressure relief valve to
reduce pressure to 100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar).
6. Perform Prime the system, page 38.
7. Dispense several full stroke shots until the PR-Xv
Metering Unit (J, page 7) is free of air and there is
no leakage at the Dispense Valve (AB, page 8) after
shutoff.
NOTE: Very viscous, compressible materials may
continue to leak after system is primed. Reduce flow
rate as required to produce air-free dispensation. Very
thin materials may require tilting the valve greater than
45 degrees and dispensing shots until material is
air-free.
NOTE: Air entering the system should be filtered.
