connection at the applicator. The plastic
parts could be damaged.
With the Vector design, multiple cables may be
connected together to create the length required,
up to a maximum of 30m (100 ft.). To connect
the cables, insert the male end of one cable into
the female end of the other. Tighten both cable
connectors against each other using two (2) 16mm
(5/8") open-end wrenches.

INSTALLATION
Connect the low voltage cable to the control unit
low voltage socket. Gently hand tighten the cable
retaining nut.
Connect the outlet from a regulator supply switch
with air hose to the applicator using a wrench.
(The cascade unit uses reed switch triggering)
The control unit may be connected through conduit
with an explosion-proof switch on or near the spray
booth where it will be convenient to the operator,
or may be connected with a power cord depending
upon application requirement.

† The electrical discharge that is available
from the charging electrode must not exceed
0.25 mJ of energy. To achieve this limit, any
flow of energy from the paint supply through
the paint line to the applicator electrode must
be prevented by grounding the paint line at
the applicator handle.
† Verify that the applicator handle is ac-
tually grounded before operating it! This is
done with a fully connected and operational
system, by placing one lead of an ohmmeter
to the handle and the other to the building
electrical ground (cold water pipe, building
structure, steel, etc.). This reading should be
essentially zero.
† If a greater reading is obtained, check that
the control unit is grounded. (See the control
unit manual for "Grounding Procedure".)

† The control unit power supply MUST be
located at least 3 feet outside of the spray
area. Install units in accordance with the
code requirements. (See local and national
codes.)
