Operating modes and controls Displayed Text Description Intake Unit On Indicates that the intake fan is operating when lit. Fire System Fault Indicates a fire protection system fault or alarm when lit. Keypad with Dial Used to set the airflow in booths with manual balance. Airflow Controller Pressure gauge with setpoint needles used for setting airflow in booths with Consta- Flow systems.
A velometer is required to test the airflow and properly set up manual balance. Deluxe control panels equipped with optional manual balance systems have a keypad with a dial that controls the variable frequency drive (VFD). You can use the keypad and dial to manually increase the fan frequency as the filters load.
• During setup, perform measurements in an empty booth. NOTE A velometer is required to test the airflow and properly set up Consta-Flow. Deluxe control panels equipped with optional Consta-Flow systems automatically adjust the fan speed and maintain consistent airflow throughout the life of the filter. NOTE Consta-Flow systems may be configured with either a sensor installed in the exhaust stack on site or with a flow ring built into the exhaust fan.

Optional equipment setup NOTE The Auto Balance system should be installed as shown in the Electrical Drawings and in the following diagram. A: High-pressure air-sensing pressure tip (Locate inside the booth a minimum of 84 inches from the floor at at least 24 inches from any corner.) B: High-pressure air-sensing tube C: Low-pressure air-sensing pressure tip (factory installed)
Optional equipment setup Using the provided tool, twist the knobs on either side of the Photohelic so that the left-most orange needle is positioned at zero and the right-most orange needle is positioned at positive 0.03 inches w.c. Start the booth. Use the velometer to test the booth's airflow.

Optional equipment setup The optional air proving switch is part of the booth’s ventilation system and is used to prove airflow across the exhaust fan. Loss of exhaust airflow causes the air solenoid valve to shut off, turning off spray air in the booth.
Optional equipment setup If applicable: Dirty filter alert setup Scope: This task applies only to spray booths if the site purchased the optional dirty filter alert. Prerequisites: • The air solenoid valve must already be installed. • Filters must be installed in the booth. The optional dirty filter alert will sense the differential pressure across the exhaust filters.
Optional equipment setup For each 0.1 inch w.c., turn the adjustment screw a half turn clockwise. For example, a final filter pressure of 1/2-inch w.c. requires an additional five half turns clockwise. Start the ventilation system and note the differential pressure shown on the manometer or similar device.

Optional equipment setup Figure 8. Pulse control board NOTE Initial parameters for the pulse control board are configured prior to product shipment. Refer to settings in the Electrical Drawings for more information. If the filters are continuously pulsing and not achieving the low limit, the high and low limit ranges must be increased.
Optional equipment setup With the booth off, ensure that the black indicator needle on the Photohelic is set to zero. To adjust the indicator needle, use a small screwdriver to turn the zero adjustment screw. Using the provided tool, twist the knobs on either side of the Photohelic so that the left-most orange needle is positioned at 2 inches w.c.

Optional equipment setup Figure 9. Differential pressure switch Perform the steps below to configure the redundant filter alert: Ensure that the ventilation system is in operation. Remove the cover from the differential pressure switch and locate the adjustment screw. Carefully turn the screw until it is fully counterclockwise.
Using the spray booth Using the spray booth This section describes how to operate a spray booth that has a Deluxe control panel. Starting the booth Perform the following steps to apply power to the booth: If required: Turn on booth power at the Main Power Disconnect.
Using the spray booth A timer in the control panel must be configured before Economy mode is activated. Set the desired time by rotating the dial so that the red indicator needle is at the desired time setting.The dial is configurable in minutes or seconds with a numerical time range of zero through ten.
Auto cleaning Automatic Cleaning (set on the selector switch at the front of the Deluxe control panel), pulses filters with compressed air when the pressure drop is within the set range when the pressure drop reaches the high limit setpoint.
Using the dust or powder booth Redundant filter monitoring Monitors the pressure drop across the redundant filters. If these filters become loaded, the Filter Fault indicator lights and the booth subsequently shuts down. See “Troubleshooting” (page 29) for more information. Shutting down the booth Perform the following steps to shut down the booth: Press the red System Stop pushbutton at the front of the control panel.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting WARNING Some of the troubleshooting procedures may require access to live circuitry. Dangerous accidental contact with line voltage may be possible. Only qualified service personnel should perform these procedures. NOTE If fault and warning codes recur after troubleshooting or you need additional assistance, contact Global Finishing Solutions at 800-848-8738 to speak to a Technical Service Representative.
