Grounding Instructions

Proper grounding is an essential part of maintaining a

safe system.

To reduce the risk of static sparking, all electrically

conductive objects or devices in the spray area must

be properly grounded. Check your local electrical code

for detailed grounding instructions for your area and

type of equipment.

To ground the helix mixer, connect the ground wire

(H) to the grounding lug (J) on the collar. Connect the

grounding wire clamp to a true earth ground. See

Fig. 3.

To order a ground wire and clamp, order Part No.

222011.

CAUTION

The bearing nut (8) is made of acetal, which is not

compatible with some of the solvents used in paints

or coatings and is not compatible with acidic fluids.

Optional Rulon bearing nut Part No. 189660 is

available. Check your material data sheet and/or

supplier for compatibility.

CAUTION

To avoid damaging the mixer, do not mount the

pump (G) directly to the mixer outlet fitting (41).

Make sure the pump is properly supported, and

install a flexible suction hose (E) between the mixer

outlet fitting and the pump, as shown in Fig. 4.
