MATERIAL SELF IGNITION
Some materials may become self igniting if applied too
thick. Read material manufactuer’s warnings and Safe-
ty Data Sheet (SDS)
KEEP COMPONENTS A and B
SEPARATE
Avoid cross contamination of A and B materials. Cured
material in fluid lines and passages could cause serious
injury or damage equipment.
Never interchange component A and component B wet-
ted parts
Never use solvent on one side that has been contami-
MOISTURE SENSITIVITY of
ISOCYANATES
Exposure to moisture, such as humidity, will cause ISO
to partially cure and form small, hard, abrasive crystals.
These become suspended in the fluid and can damage
equipment. Eventually, a film will develop on the sur-
face and the ISO will begin to gel and increase in vis-
cosity.
Partially cured ISO will reduce performance and
the life of all wetted parts.
• Always use a sealed container with a desiccant
dryer in the vent, or a nitrogen atmosphere in the
empty headspace of the container.
• Never store ISO in an open container.
• Keep the ISO pump reservoir filled with appropri-
ate lubricant. The lubricant creates a barrier be-
tween the ISO and the atmosphere.
• Use only moisture-proof hoses compatible with
ISO.
• Never use reclaimed solvents, which may contain
moisture. Always keep solvent containers closed
when not in use.
• Always lubricate threaded parts with an appropri-
ate lubricant when reassembling.
NOTE
FOAM RESINS with 245 FA BLOWING
AGENTS
Some foam blowing agents will froth at temperatures above
90°F (33°C) when not under pressure, especially if agitated.
To reduce frothing, minimize preheating in a circulation
system. Follow resin manufacturers guidelines.
CHANGING MATERIALS
Avoid equipment damage and downtime when chang-
ing materials or flushing for service or storage.
• Flush equipment multiple times to make sure it is
clean.
• Always clean the fluid strainers after flushing
• Check with the material manufacturer for chemical
compatibility.
• When changing between epoxies and urethanes
or polyureas, disassemble and clean all wetted
parts, and change hoses.
NOTE
GROUNDING
Check local electrical code and proportioner manual for
grounding instructions.
Ground spray gun through connection to a Carlisle ap-
proved grounded fluid supply hose.
