Grounding

Grounding Grounding
The equipment must be grounded to reduce
the risk of static sparking. Static sparking can
cause fumes to ignite or explode. Grounding
provides an escape wire for the electric
current.
Reactor:
• System is grounded through the
power cord.
• Spray gun: connect whip
hose ground wire to FTS. See

NOTICE NOTICE
Failure to properly size the equipment may
result in damage. To avoid damage to the
equipment, follow the guidelines listed below.
• Determine the correct size generator. Using
the correct size generator and proper air
compressor will enable the proportioner to
run at a nearly constant RPM. Failure to do
so will cause voltage fluctuations that can
damage electrical equipment. Ensure that the
generator matches the voltage and phase of
the proportioner.
Use the following procedure to determine the
correct size generator.
1. List peak wattage requirements of all system
components.
2. Add the wattage required by the system
components.
3. Perform the following equation:
Total watts x 1.25 = kVA (kilovolt-amperes)
4. Select a generator size that is equal to or
greater than the determined kVA.
• Use the electrical ratings in Models, to
determine the correct size power cord.
NOTICE
NOTICE NOTICE
Undersized power cords can cause voltage
fluctuations that can damage electrical
equipment and may cause the power cable
to overheat.
• Use an air compressor with continuous run
head unloading devices. Direct online air
compressors that start and stop during a
job will cause voltage fluctuations that can
damage electrical equipment.
• Maintain and inspect the generator, air
compressor, and other equipment per the
manufacturer recommendations to avoid
an unexpected shutdown. Unexpected
equipment shutdown will cause voltage
fluctuations that can damage electrical
equipment.
• Use a wall power supply with enough current
to meet system requirements. Failure to do
so will cause voltage fluctuations that can
damage electrical equipment.
