Page 9 UltraMAX Fluid Section Manual Catalyst - Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide (MEKP) MEKP is among the more hazardous materials found in commercial channels. The safe handling of the “unstable (reactive)” chemicals presents a definite challenge to the plastics industry. The highly reactive property which makes MEKP valuable to the plastics industry in producing the curing reaction of polyester resins also produces the hazards which require great care and caution in its storage, transportation, handling, processing and disposal.
Page 10 UltraMAX Fluid Section Manual  Never add MEKP to anything that is hot, since explosive decomposition may result.  Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Protective equipment should be worn at all times. During clean-up of spilled MEKP, personal safety equipment, gloves, and eye protection must be worn.
Page 11 UltraMAX Fluid Section Manual  The reaction is unpredictable. Prior use of an HHC solvent without incident (corrosion or explosion) does NOT mean that such use is safe. These solvents can be dangerous alone (as a clean-up or flushing agent) or when used as a component or a coating material. There is no known inhibitor that is effective under all circumstances.
Page 12 UltraMAX Fluid Section Manual Catalyst Diluents Magnum Venus Products spray-up and gel-coat systems currently produced are designed so that catalyst diluents are not required. Magnum Venus Products therefore recommends that diluents not be used to avoid possible contamination which could lead to an explosion due to the handling and mixing of MEKP and diluents.
Page 13 UltraMAX Fluid Section Manual Toxicity of Chemicals  Magnum Venus Products recommends that you consult OSHA Sections 1910.94, 1910.106, 1910.107 and NFPA No.33, Chapter 14, and NFPA No.91.  Contact your chemical supplier(s) and determine the toxicity of the various chemicals used as well as the best methods to prevent injury, irritation and danger to personnel.
Page 14 UltraMAX Fluid Section Manual Precautions include: 1. Know precisely what chemicals you are using and obtain information from your chemical supplier on what to do in the event the chemical gets onto your skin or into the eyes, or if swallowed.
Page 15: Introduction
“Spray Application of Flammable and Combustible Materials”. Introduction This manual provides information for the operation, maintenance, and simple repair of the MVP UltraMAX Fluid Section. These fluid sections are used in multiple configurations. This manual only covers the fluid section itself; generic references are used when referring to other components that may be connected to the fluid section.

UltraMAX Fluid Section Manual  Fluid section repair kit (refer to drawings included with the unit for part number) Note The seal kit (SK) only comes with seals and O-rings. The repair kit (RK) comes with seals, O-rings, balls, and springs. Note The Kalrez O-rings that are used on the UPLS-2300-SS fluid section are not included in any repair or seal kit and must be ordered separately.

Page 29: Starting Up And Troubleshooting
UltraMAX Fluid Section Manual Starting Up and Troubleshooting 1. Make sure system pressure is set to zero (0) psi and turn on pneumatic pressure from system. 2. Turn on the recirculation circuit and/or open the filter bypass valves. 3. Using the priming button, slowly ramp up pressure to cycle the fluid section until a solid flow is achieved, observing the up and down strokes to make sure both have a steady fluid stream.
