Overview

Gun Flush Box Interface Kit 15V534 provides electrical and air connections to enable a ProMix 2KS RoboMix proportioner to operate one or two gun flush boxes. See FIG. 1 for the identification label.

Order Gun Flush Box Kit 15V826 separately (see man- ual 312784). Each 15V826 Kit includes one gun flush box and related parts. The pressure switch, air flow switch, and solenoid valve included in Gun Flush Box Kit 15V826 will be installed in this interface module.

Installation

???To avoid electric shock, ground all equipment. Turn off equipment power and shut off power at main circuit breaker before installing.

???All electrical wiring must be done by a qualified electrician and comply with all local codes and regulations.

???Do not substitute system components as this may impair intrinsic safety.

To reduce the risk of serious injury, including fluid injection, splashing, pinching or injury from moving parts, relieve pressure before installing the kit. Fol- low the Pressure Relief Procedure in the ProMix 2KS Operation or Service manual.

Installation

Location

Install the gun flush box module enclosure (1) within 15 ft (4.5 m) of the RoboMix, to ensure that the cable (23) will reach the RoboMix. The module is approved for use in a hazardous location. See FIG. 1.

Mount the Enclosure

1.See Dimensions, page 13.

2.Ensure that the wall and mounting hardware are strong enough to support the weight of the equip- ment, fluid, hoses, and stress caused during opera- tion.

3.Using the equipment as a template, mark the mounting holes on the wall at a convenient height for the operator and so equipment is easily accessi- ble for maintenance.

4.Drill mounting holes in the wall. Install anchors as needed.

5.Bolt equipment securely.

Installation

Install the Cable

1.Loosen the captive screws and remove the front cover from the enclosure.

2.The cable (23) has bare wires at both ends. Thread the shortest end (4 in. [102 mm]) into the enclosure through the strain relief bushing (7). See FIG. 2.

3.Connect the cable wires to the left side of the termi- nal strip (12), as indicated by the label (20). See FIG. 2 and Table 1.

20 12

FIG. 2. Connect Cable to Terminal Strip

4.Connect the other end of the cable (5 in. [127 mm]) to pins 1-4 and 7-10 of the 10 position connector (24) and pins 1-4 of the 6 position connector, as shown in the Cable (23) Wire Harness Detail on page 11.
