ESS SC-EB OWNER’S MANUAL
Air-assisted electrostac sprayers produce electrically charged spray drops that
are carried to the target in a low pressure, gentle, air stream. The heart of the
SC-EB sprayer is the patented MaxCharge™ nozzle.
Air and liquid enter separately at the rear of the nozzle. Just before leaving the
nozzle, the air hits the liquid stream to make many thousands of ny spray
droplets are blown out of the nozzle and move onto the target where they are
aracted to surfaces by electrostac forces. The electrostac charge induced by
the MaxCharge™ nozzle is strong enough to allow the droplets to move in any
direcon to cover surfaces, even defying gravity to coat the underside of leaves
and the back side of the target objects. The result is uniform spray coverage on
hidden surfaces that other sprayers miss. Air-assisted electrostac sprayers give
more than twice the deposion eciency of hydraulic sprayers and non
electrostac types of air-assisted sprayers. The grower benets in terms of
signicant reducons in applicaon costs and opmized insect and disease
control, sanizaon of beef or other coverage.
The MaxCharge™ nozzle is easy to clean and corrosion-proof. The interior
ceramic outlet resists the wear three mes beer than stainless steel outlets.
These features combine to give the best spray coverage on the market. This
quality product is virtually maintenance free, and assures you of savings in the
applicaon of chemical.
The comparison of air-assisted electrostac spraying versus convenonal
spraying is dramac.
Overview of the ESS Model SC-EB Air Assisted
Electrostac Sprayer
Where Does The Spray Go?
The University of California completed a series of tests to
invesgate what happens to spray liquid aer it leaves the
nozzle.
Conclusion: ESS technology places over 4 mes the amount of
spray onto the plant surface using 1/2 the amount of chemicals.
Furthermore, they also reported that ESS sprayers send 2/3 less
chemicals to the ground and into the air. Less chemical used
overall, less waste, and less dri than convenonal equipment.
Imagine the environmental benet!
A Picture Worth A Thousand Words…
In this test, uorescent dye has been sprayed
on two round knobs. The le knob was
sprayed with the electrostac system ON;
the right knob was sprayed with the same
sprayer, but with the electrostac system
OFF. Note how even the coverage is on the
electrostac knob.
Electrostacally charged droplets
are strongly aracted to the
underside of surfaces.

Safe Operaon of the SC-EB Sprayer
Operators Responsibility
Read the Owner’s M anual! Failure to do so is considered a misuse of the equipment.
It is the responsibility of the user to read the Operator ’s Manual to understand the safe
and correct operating procedures for the sprayer and to maintain the sprayer according
to the manufacturer’s recommendations. It is the operator’s responsibility to ensure that
all who are using this equipment read this manual.
The operator is responsible for inspecting the equipment and for repairing and replacing
damaged or worn parts to prevent damage or excessive wear to other parts. It is also the
operator’s responsibility to deliver the machine for service or to replace defective parts
which are covered by the standard warranty.
Lack of aenon to safety can result in reducon of eciency, accident, personal injury, or death. Watch for safety
hazards and correct deciencies promptly. Use the following safety precauons as a guide when using the machine.
CAUTION: SHOCK HAZARD
The SC-EB sprayer has been engineered to be very safe during normal operaon. However, as with all
line-powered electrical equipment and tools, certain safety procedures need to be followed:
Use a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) power outlet whenever posible.
If an extensión cord is necessary, use a three wire extensión cord with a 3-prong grounding type plug.
Turn o sprayer before unplugging.
Unplug sprayer when not in use.
Always unplug by grasping the plug. Do not unplug by pulling on the cord.
Never pull plug with wet hands.
Do not pull or carry the sprayer by its power cord. Do not crimp the cord or cause it to be damaged
by straining it around Sharp edges. Keep power cord away from heat sources.
Do not use the SC-EB sprayer with a damaged power cord. Call ESS for a replacement.

ESS SC-EB OWNER’S MANUAL
CAUTION: HOT SURFACES
CHEMICAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Be aware that the compressor inside the SC-EB, along with the metal connecons to the air
compressor, all become hot enough to burn you. DO NOT TOUCH, unl me has been allowed
for cooling down.
Use protecve clothing, eye protecon and gloves when mixing chemicals to be sprayed with the SC-EB
sprayer.
Some of the chemicals that can be used in the BP1 may be harmful to the skin or if inhaled. When in doubt, use
a respirator and eye protecon when spraying with the spraywand.
Follow the chemical’s manufacturer’s recommendaons in handling, mixing, applying, storing and disposing of
chemicals.
Be aware of poisoning symptoms and know the appropriate rst aid.
Know the length of me needed to pass before allowing people and pets to go back into the sprayed area.
About the low-voltage system of the MaxCharge™ Spraywand
For operator safety, the power supply for the MaxCharge™ spraywand is enrely separate form the power supply for
the sprayer’s compressor. The spraywand is powered by 9-volt baeries in the handle of the SC-EB sprayer. This
low-voltage charge is not enough to harm people. Some people report feeling a ”ngle” or a slight snging
sensaon when the spray from the spraywand falls on their bare skin.
3
Read and follow all instrucons on the chemical or pescide manufacturer’s label.
The compressor becomes hot to the touch during normal use. Do not touch the SC-EB compressor aer it has
been running. Allow compressor to cool down before risking a touch.
The metal air connecon on the top or side of the case, along with the metal quick connecon to the air hose,
both become very hot to the touch, and can burn you. Do not touch unl mes has been allowed for them to
cool down.
Stay clear of the hot compressor when making adjustments inside the SC-EB case or replacing the boles.
The sprayer’s compressor is equipped with a thermal overload switch. If it overheats, the compressor will stop
running. Unplug the sprayer and let it stand for one hour with the door open. The unit should then be able to
restart.

ESS SC-EB OWNER’S MANUAL
READ AND FOLLOW THE CHEMICAL
MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
It is extremely important for the owner/
operator’s safety as Well as the safety of other
people in the vicinity that all chemical safety
precauons are followed.
This label is placed on top of the SC-EB Sprayer
near the quick connect sockets.
The SC-EB compressor becomes hot during normal
operaon.
DO NOT TOUCH
This label is wrapped around the hose to remind
you to clean the lters regularly. The number one
cause of poor sprayer performance is a clogged or
ditry lter.
There will be a small shock when using our
sprayers. To avoid this shock place your thumb
on the bolt at the top of the spraywand.
Safety Decals
Appropriate safety decals are placed on ESS equipment in order to alert the operator to possible dangers.

If you have a pacemaker, we would recommend that you not operate an electrostac sprayer, or if you elect to
do so, know that you are accepng any risk associated therewith. Just to be clear, no one, with a pacemaker,
has ever had a problem using our electrostac sprayers, however, several years ago a physician expressed
concern, even though his opinion was un-tested and not founded in any research. Since that me, we have
taken the ulmate safe approach and recommended that those with pacemakers not operate our electrostac
sprayers.

ESS SC-EB OWNER’S MANUAL
Nozzle Assembly
It is very important to follow all the maintenance and cleaning
procedures to ensure that the electrostac sprayer will funcon
properly. Although the MaxCharge™ nozzle will outperform all
electrostac spray technology on the market, regular cleaning will
ensure peak operang performance.
The nozzle assembly is located at the end of the spraywand wand. It is
composed of a nozzle body, internal o-ring, Teon ring, cover,
external o-ring, and a hood (see labeled drawing). To access the
nozzle components, just unscrew the nozzle cover by hand.
Cleaning the Spraywand
Always rinse the spraywand out with clean soapy water aer ever
day’s spraying. That is the most important thing you can do to
ensure trouble free operaon of your SC-EB sprayer. By cleaning aer
each and every working day you will avoid the long-term chemical
buildup that eventually causes clogs, poor spray paerns and shortens
nozzle life.
Establish maintenance intervals to disassemble and clean the nozzle.
Your nozzle maintenance schedule will vary depending on the types of
chemicals used and adherence to pre-and post-spray checks. In
general it is sucient to thoroughly clean nozzles aer 50 hours.
If heavy loads of weable powders are used, the cleaning schedule
should be sooner.
To Clean the Nozzle Assembly
1. Slide the hood over the nozzle cover.
2. Unscrew the cover from the nozzle base and remove the teon ring. Clean any debris from around the nozzle p.
NOTE: There is a small o-ring in the nozzle around the base of the p take cauon that it doesn’t fall o. If it
does, clean it and press back into place. Also, take care not to damage the nozzle p when the cover is
removed.
3. Soak the ring, cover and hood in a mild detergent soluon. Use a small brush (so or mild bristle) to clean the
inside of the cover and the hold through it. Also, be sure to clean the hood. It is important to clean inside the hood
and the two cavies. Rinse thoroughly.
4. Scrub the nozzle base with the detergent soluon using a so bristle brush. Clean the ceramic outlet. Be sure to
thoroughly clean the base cavity and take care not to damage the nozzle p. Rinse and make sure the small
o-ring is in place.
5. Reassemble nozzle by placing the teon ring on the base and screwing the cover on hand ght. Next slide the hood
over the nozzle and seat it securely against the external o-ring. Wipe clean the exterior of all hoses and ngs
connected to the nozzle.
The electrode cover should be hand ght. Never use pliers or other tools to ghten it. The insulang ring should be
loose.
NOTE: There will be a drip eect from the nozzle. The drip results from the accumulaon of ny
electrostacally charged droplets wrapping back and coang the spraywand nozzle.

ESS SC-EB OWNER’S MANUAL
It is important to inspect the lter for deterioraon. When handling, if the lter
begins to break apart or crumble, replace immediately.
Pre-Spray Check
1. Inspect Nozzles
Check nozzle cover to make sure it is on hand ght (do not overghten or use a
wrench). Make sure the hood is seated rmly to the nozzle base and against
the external o-ring.
2. Preparing the Tank Mix
If you will be spraying Weable powders it is a good idea to use a compability
agent with the water and tank mix. Compability agents are chemicals mixed
with the water that make mixing easier and keep heavy concentraons
uniformly in suspension. Some brand name addives are COMPLIMENT™,
UNITE®, and BALANCE™. Check with your local chemical supplier for others that
are available.
Post-Spray Check
Aer each spray it is essenal that hoses and spraywand be ushed with clean soapy
water. This will help prevent chemical build-up that can clog lines and nozzles.
The Air & Liquid Delivery System
The air compressor
The air compressor produces compressed air which atomizes and propels the
liquid. It plugs into a 110 or 220 volt electrical source. Use the SC-EB™ with a three
pronged extension cord of no more than 50 feet and rated for no less than 15 amp
service. The On/O switch is on the back of the case. Check the fans on the side of
the case for debris build up.
Cleaning the air lter
To clean the air lter, pull o the lter cap. Inside, remove foam lter, and wash in
warm, soapy water.

Remember to charge the
spraywand baeries aer
every work session!
Baeries
To change the baeries:
1. Unscrew the two 6-32 x 1/2” Phillips head
machine screws which hold the baery cover in
place.
2. While holding the leads in one hand, gently
disconnect the baeries from the leads. Be
careful not to tear the leads o the wires or
tear the lead wires out of the power supply.
3. Connect the fresh baery pack to the leads.
4. Reconnect the baery cover. Screw the two
6-32 x 1/2” Phillips head machine screws back
in to secure the baery cover.
5. Charge the spraywand before aempng to
use it.
The nozzle charging system operates on two 9-volt rechargeable baeries which are located in the base of
the spraywand. Please charge the baeries fully before the rst use. In average condions, the baeries
will perform 5-6 hours of operaon on an individual charge. The baeries should be recharged when the
charging indicator light on top of the spraywand shell fails to glow even though air connues to ow
through the spraywand. Aer approximately 800-1000 hours of service, the baeries will no longer be able
to hold an adequate charge and will need to be replaced. Substute with 9-volt nickel-hydride
rechargeable baeries, unl the SC-EB’s replacement rechargeable baery pack from ESS can be ordered.
Be advised: Non-rechargeable 9-volt baeries can be used, however do not plug the baery
charger into the spraywand while non-rechargeable baeries are installed. This will result in
serious damage to the nozzle’s charging system and void the warranty.
We recommend charging depleted
baeries for 4-6 hours.
We do not recommend plugging a
charger into a fully charged spraywand.
This may cause baeries to over heat or
swell.
