Ground System

The following grounding instructions are minimum
requirements for a system. Your system may include
other equipment or objects that must be grounded.
Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding
instructions for your area and type of equipment. Your
system must be connected to a true earth ground.
Ground Pump
Ground the pump by connecting a ground wire and
clamp between the fluid supply and a true earth ground
as instructed in your separate pump instruction manual.
Ground Air Compressors and Hydraulic
Power Supplies
Ground air compressors and hydraulic power supplies
according to the manufacturer recommendations.

Ground Air, Fluid, and Hydraulic Hoses
Connected To Pump
Use only electrically conductive hoses with a maximum
of 100 ft (30.5 m) combined hose length to ensure
grounding continuity. Check the electrical resistance of
your air and fluid hoses at least once a week. If the total
resistance to ground exceeds 25 megohms, replace the
hose immediately.
Use a meter that is capable of measuring resis-
tance at this level.
Ground Spray Gun
Ground the spray gun by mounting it to a grounded
reciprocator and by connecting it to a properly grounded
fluid hose and pump.
Ground Fluid Supply Container
Ground the fluid supply container according to local
code.
Ground Object Being Sprayed
Ground the object that is being sprayed according to
local code.
Ground Solvent Pails
Ground all solvent pails that are used when flushing
according to local code. Use only metal pails, which are
conductive. Do not place the pail on a non-conductive
surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts
the grounding continuity.
