INSTALLATION GUIDE
Option A Option B
HBE Atomizer
& Cartridge System
7
Heat the cartridge by means of
microwave oven, convention oven,
electrical hot-box etc. to a conditioned
temperature of 60°C (140°F).
If using a microwave, a rotating 700 watt
microwave is recommended. Presuming
the starting temperature of the cartridge
is 25°C (77°F), heat the cartridge for 1:00
minute on both sides of the cartridge for
a total heating duration of 2:00 minutes.
Use an infrared temperature gun to
check the cartridge (in multiple locations
– top, middle, bottom) to ensure the Base
side is 50-57°C (122-135°F).
For spraying HBE 3:1 (1000 mL) and Liquid Epoxy Types 4:1 (940 mL)
Install air inlet fitting to the atomizer gun
air inlet 1/4” female thread. Attach the
air supply line to the Atomizer inlet fit-
ting. The air supply pressure should be
100 psi (7 bar) and air flow rate shall be
minimum 12 CFM. Only clean and dry air
should be used.

Atomizer Mixing Tip
Clean exposed steel and adjacent
pipe coating according to SSPC
SP 1 to remove the presence of oil,

Thoroughly clean the cutback area
to “near white metal” SIS Sa 2½
(SSPC-SP10) or equivalent. Materials
used for abrasive blasting shall produce
an angular surface profile of 2.5-5 mils
(64-127 μm) Lightly abrade at least
50mm (2”) of the line coating on each
side of cutback area.

Wipe clean with a lint-free cloth or
air blast the steel and pipe coating to
remove foreign contaminants. Surface
must be clean and dry prior to applica-
tion of HBE products.

Make sure the correct ejector plate
is mounted on the top piston of the
Atomizer Gun. Option A requires the 3:1
mount plate and Option B requires the
4:1 mount plate. (Mount plates, screws
and alan key included with Atomizer
Gun.)

Adjust the atomizing air pressure dial
to #3 +/- 1. This setting may vary
depending on the temperature of the
product and input air pressure.
Note: When spraying with a right-angled
mixing tip, increased air pressure may be
required.

Adjust the fluid control dial to a setting
of #3 +/- 1 by scrolling up or down. The
dial is located on the side of the gun
handle, behind the trigger. This setting
regulates the speed/pressure of the two
pistons. This setting mayvary depending
on temperature of product and input air
supply pressure.

Slide the cartridge into the Atomizer gun
with the Base side of the cartridge (large
end) down first. The two ejector plates
of the gun should match the piston seal
area of the cartridge. Once the cartridge
is placed securely into the gun chamber,
attach the quick lock air hose to the
mixing tip nozzle end by ‘snapping’ it in
place.

Hold the cartridge with end cap fac-
ing up. Remove the cartridge end cap
by unscrewing (counter-clockwise) and
pulling up. Fit the mixing tip end over
the cartridge outlet and screw the mix-
ing tip cap to securely lock the cartridge
and mixing tip together. Mixing tips are
intended for one time use only.
Lightly Shake Cartridge

Once heated, the viscosity of the cure
side will be very low. Holding the base
side of the cartridge, shake the cartridge
up and down and side to side to lightly
redistribute the pigment colour in the
cure side of the cartridge.
Storage & Safety Guidelines
To ensure maximum performance, store
Canusa products in a dry, ventilated area.
Keep products sealed in original cartons
and avoid exposure to direct sunlight, rain,
snow, dust or other adverse environmental
elements. Avoid prolonged storage at
temperatures above 40°C (104°F) or
below 5°C (41°F). Product installation
should be done in accordance with local
health and safety regulations.
Appropriate PPE should be worn in compli-
ance with the requirements of the material
Safety Data Sheet and local health and
safety regulations and should include the
use of a full face shield.
These installation instructions are
intended as a guide for standard products.
Consult your Canusa
representative for specific projects or
unique applications.
Purge cartridge and mixing tip nozzle
by pulling the trigger long enough to
just fill the static mixing tip chamber
with material. The Atomizer Gun is now
ready for spraying. Release trigger half-
way to stop the fluid ejector pistons.
Release the trigger completely to stop
the atomizing air (stop spraying) or when
cartridge is empty.
