GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Aro stainless steel fluid heater models are wired for 120 volt AC ap
plications. The heating element is a 2000 watt cartridge type and is ther
mostatically controlled. The wiring, heating element and thermostat are
protected by a preset heat limiter.
The thermostat is adjustable up to approximately 140_ F (60_ C). The
heater is off when the thermostat knob is turned counterclockwise as far
as possible. The heater will not switch on until the knob is rotated to at
least ambient room temperature.
Fluid heaters have been tested in water soluble oil. Some of this fluid
may be left within the heater, therefore flush out this fluid with a solvent
compatible with the material to be pumped.
•
This unit utilizes an explosion proof electrical section and internally
spiraling material section. The material enters the base under line
pressure from the pump and is heated and delivered thru to the ma
terial outlet at the top.
•
Two or more paint heaters may be coupled together by plumbing the
material outlet of the first heater to the material inlet of the next, etc.
However, the distance of piping run between the units should be lim
ited to no more than three feet (see figure 4, page 4).
TYPICAL INSTALLATION
The heater inlet and outlet should be plumbed (up flow) as shown (see
figure 4, page 4), to minimize chances of trapped air inside the heater. If
the inlet and outlet are reversed (down flow), the temperature rise will be
different.

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
•
Heed all warnings.
WARNING Do not exceed 5000 p.s.i. (35 MPa) maximum.
WARNING HIGH PRESSURE DEVICE. Improper usage of
this equipment could result in serious injury. The possibility of
injection into the flesh is a potential hazard. Never allow any
part of the human body to come in front of, or in direct contact
with, the material outlet. An injection injury can be serious. If
injection should occur, contact a qualified physician for imme
diate treatment.
CAUTION Electrical supply power to the heater must be off
during flushing operation.
CAUTION Use only genuine Aro replacement parts to as
sure compatible pressure rating and longest service life.
