VOLUME OUTPUT: Approximately one (1) gallon per hour
MAXIMUM VISCOSITY: 300 SUS at 100°F
WEIGHT: 2 pounds
SUGGESTED AIR PRESSURE: 50-100 psi

CAUTION:
It is not recommended that solvents, oils or coolants containing oil be applied with a misting device.

Installation and Adjustment

  1. Provide the unit with an air supply of 50 – 100 psi. If the pressure exceeds 100 psi, it may be necessary to install a pressure regulator.
  2. It is recommended that you use a separate reservoir for coolant (rather than dropping the coolant supply line into the machine tool sump) to prevent contaminants from plugging the unit. A fresh mix of
    coolant in a clean gallon jug is usually sufficient.
  3. To adjust air volume, turn knurled valve (No. 8) on top of manifold until a sufficient amount of air is passing through the unit to draw the coolant up the supply line (No. 10).
  4. To adjust coolant volume, turn needle valve (No. 5) clockwise until closed; then, with air on, turn needle valve counterclockwise until mist contains the desired amount of coolant.

Maintenance and Service

In the event the nozzle tip (No. 1) is damaged by a cutter or grinding wheel, the flow of coolant may be
stopped or restricted. The nozzle has to be square across the end and the orifice free of all burrs for
proper operation.

Caution
If the unit blows air back into the coolant supply tank or produces an intermittent mist, tighten the nozzle
tip and the tube assembly (No. 2) hand-tight plus three-quarters of a turn. Note: Excessive tightening
may destroy the sealing ability of the plastic ends of the tube assembly.



It is not recommended that solvents, oils or coolants containing oil be applied with a misting device.
