AAS HIGH PRESSURE AIRLESS APPLICATION SYSTEM AIRLESS PUMP 1:26 1. SAFETY REGULATIONS

Read the instruction manual carefully before starting the pump.

These pumps should only be used by trained personnel and only for the process for which they are intended.

Only use AAS high pressure, airless, equipment for the application of Ardrox Corrosion Inhibiting Compounds.

All components used with the AAS high pressure, airless, pump must be capable of withstanding the maximum fluid pressure in the system. The bursting pressure has to be 4 times the maximum product pressure.

Do not exceed the maximum air pressure of 10 bar (145 p.s.i.).

Where there is any danger of the pressure exceeding 10 bar (145 p.s.i.) a suitable safety pressure relief valve must always be installed in the pump air connection.

Maintenance and repairs must always be carried out with the system unpressurized. Note that leaks or other fine jets of fluid are under high pressure and can cut the skin. It is especially important to be careful with AAS corrosion inhibiting compound (CIC) spray application equipment where pressures are high.

Inspect the equipment for wear at regular intervals, paying particular attention to hoses and connections.

Always use ear protectors when working near compressed air-powered machines.

The maximum emitted noise level, measured at a distance of 1 m in accordance with SS-ISO 3747, is: Sound level 101-dB (A) Acoustic power level 109 dB (A) relative to 1 pW.

2. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

GENERAL The pump consists of a drive section and a pump section. The drive section is normally an air motor driven by compressed air. The pressure ratio of the pumps states the ratio of the incoming air pressure to the fluid pressure. A pump with a pressure ratio of 1:26 thus gives a fluid pressure of 260 bar (3770 p.s.i.) at an air pressure of 10 bar (145 p.s.i.). The pressure ratio usually states the area ratio between the pump piston and the air piston. The practical pressure amplification may therefore vary somewhat for different compounds. The AAS compressed air driven pumps are fully automatic. They start automatically when the fluid (CIC) valve is opened. When the valve is closed they build up a back-pressure and stop.

3. ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION AAS PUMP Remove all protective plugs. Remove the CIC drum bung fitting by turning the upper knurled part counter-clockwise. The drum bung fitting can then be screwed into the drum. Place the pump into the drum or racket on the trolley Lock the suction pipe to the drum by turning the knurled part clockwise. Cover the opening around the suction pipe with a rag or similar so as to prevent dirt from entering and contaminating the CIC. If the compressed air contains moisture a water-separator should be installed in the airline before it connects to the AAS pump. The AAS pump does not require an oil-mist lubricators but if one is already installed it will only have a beneficial effect on pump life and need not be removed. Oil-mist lubricators are recommended under severe operating conditions. 4. STARTING UP The AAS pump may be damaged if it runs dry. For this reason it should be started up carefully, with low air pressure. When it has started to pump the CIC fluid the air pressure can be gradually increased. Run the pump until the CIC is free from air at the discharge point and then close the valve. The pump will then make a few more strokes and then stop. Check hoses and connections for leaks. The equipment is now ready for use.



page IV-3


5. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Inspect the equipment regularly for leaks.

If an oil-mist lubricator is fitted, make sure that it is filled.

If a water separator is fitted, empty it regularly.

Make sure that the CIC drum lid is properly fitted to prevent contamination of the contents.

Make sure that the suction pipe is not resting on the bottom of the CIC drum.

When changing drums, be careful not to get dirt on the suction pipe. CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE Trouble-shooting Problem Action Pump does not start Check air supply Check that outlet is not blocked Check the air motor, see Repair section Pump starts but output Check that air pressure is not too low is insufficient Check that pump is not sucking air

Check that air filter is not clogged with dirt or ice Pump does not stop although Inspect the pump assembly and make sure there are spray is not operating no foreign objects in pump valves. Dismantle the pump section and make sure

that seals and valves are intact, see Repair section Air escapes from the air motor Dismantle the air motor and inspect gaskets when the pump has stopped and seals and valves, see Repair section. under pressure.



page IV-4


CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE - REPAIR GENERAL

• Before performing any service operation, always shut off the air supply and decompress the CIC fluid, i.e. let CIC fluid out so that the pressure within the system falls.

• Be careful not to damage any parts when dismantling. Shafts which do not have key

flats must never be removed with a pipe wrench, or the like.

• The recommended way to remove shafts is to grip the component in a vice with aluminum or copper jaws, clamp the shaft in a hand-drill chuck and then turn the chuck by hand.

• Be careful when fitting O-rings and seals. Always lubricate them with oil or grease

before fitting. They must never be threaded over sharp edges when being fitted and must be protected by some form of sleeve in such cases.

• Lubricate all moving parts.

When trouble-shooting pay particular attention to the following:

• Contamination in or damage to valves

• Contamination in or damage to ball seats

• Damaged O-rings, seals and gaskets

• Scratches in sealing surfaces

AAS HIGH PRESSURE EQUIPMENT – START UP GUIDELINES PUMP UNIT 1:26 ART NO 124 051 999

• Assemble equipment according to the Manual • Place the pump into the Corrosion Inhibiting Compound (CIC) pail • Reduce air pressure regulator to "0" • Connect line air hose • Increase the air pressure until the pump starts pumping slowly • Open the pressure release valve on the distribution block • Close it when the CIC starts to circulate • Insert the extension hose and a large size nozzle on the spray gun • Spray back into the CIC pail until all air is out of the system

Short-term storage (less than 2 months) Proceed as follows:

• Disconnect the line air • Release the pressure by opening the relieve valve on the distribution block • Do not remove pump from the CIC pail • Make sure that CIC pail is covered tightly and protected against dust and solvent

evaporation • Store at room temperature whenever possible • Clean equipment externally

Long-term storage (more than 2 months) Proceed as follows:

• Lift the pump out of the CIC pail • Pump the remaining CIC back into the pail and close it tightly • Place the pump into another pail containing appropriate solvent (white spirit or

naphtha solvent) • Clean the entire equipment by pumping the solvent (white spirit or naphtha solvent)

through every nozzle back into the solvent pail • Secure and cover solvent pail opening to avoid evaporation • Disconnect the line air and relieve the pressure



page IV-6


WANDS Short-term storage (less than 2 months) Proceed as follows:

• Keep wands free from dust and debris. Quick disconnection couplings are particularly sensitive

• After use clean wands externally with aliphatic solvent (type white spirit or naphtha solvent)

• If wands are used frequently, no other precaution needs to be taken Long-term storage (more than 2 months) Proceed as follows:

• For storage longer than two weeks, all wands should be cleaned internally • See under point "Long-term storage for the pump" • This cleaning has to be performed together with cleaning of the pump • Connect every individual wand to the spray gun and spray with solvent into the pail

FILTERS Art No 124 131 999 Every wand is equipped with a 200 mesh filter. Filters have to be cleaned once a month with white spirit or naphtha solvent and compressed air. Proceed as follows:

• Remove the filter. Clean it with solvent and line air • Inspect for possible damage, such as screen perforation, deformation or shrinkage

Damaged filters must be replaced. Even minor filter damage can cause jet to clog. Only use aliphatic solvents such as white spirit or naphtha for

cleaning. Do not use paint solvent for cleaning!!!



page IV-7


JETS Jests are cleaned together with wands during cleaning procedure. No additional cleaning is required. Used jets should be stored in solvent in a tight tin can in order to prevent clogging. Cleaning instructions Jet Nos 4 and 5 Remove the top of the jet only. Clean holes in the top according to instructions above. Clean the wand by spraying without top of the tip. Reassemble and tighten firmly. Jet Nos 8, 9 and 13 Remove the jet. Clean with solvent (white spirit or naptha) and line air. Use cleaning needles (Art No 124 144 999) if necessary. Clean the wand by spraying with solvent without the jet before re-assembly. Jet No 11 Easyclean Twist the top by hand half a turn. Spray product back into the pail. Tighten it. The jet should now be clean. If not, repeat the same procedure again.

CORRECT APPLICATION OF ARDROX AV CORROSION INHIBITING COMPOUNDS In order to achieve good corrosion prevention and fast, efficient treatment on aircraft and helicopters, the following points have to be taken into consideration TREATMENT GUIDELINES • Ardrox AV Corrosion Inhibiting Compounds (CIC) must be applied on all surfaces

requiring corrosion protection treatment • Acceptable film thickness wet:

AV CIC

Wet Film Thickness

Micrometer (µ)

AV CIC

Wet Film Thickness

Micrometer (µ)

AV 8 15 to 30 AV 15 20 to 50 AV 25 35 to 90 AV 30 40 to 100 AV 40 60 to 100 AV 100D 120 to 200

• A narrow stream of Ardrox AV CIC must remain along stringers, profiles and other

joints in order to provide penetration. A stream of 3 – 5 mm is acceptable. • Heavy over spray, or excess Ardrox AV CIC which has collected in pools or puddles

must be removed. It can be soaked up by using absorbent rags or carpets. • A narrow circle of Ardrox AV CIC must be visible around fasteners and rivets. • Ardrox AV CIC is not a decorative finish to a surface. It must not be compared to a

painted area. Runs, sags and drips are allowed. • In order to provide optimal corrosion prevention, all stringers, longerons and frames

have to be treated from an extremely short distance in order to cover the underside of the components. This will create heavy over-spray. Some of it can be removed, but runs will still not be eliminated and are acceptable.

• Apply sufficient Ardrox AV CIC. If too small an amount of CIC is applied then penetration into crevices will be limited. Penetration of the CIC into cracks and crevices to displace moisture is an essential part of the corrosion protection treatment. If the CIC does not penetrate into the cracks and crevices then there is a danger that condensing water will accumulate in these areas and cause corrosion.

• Brush application of Ardrox AV CIC will not promote sufficient penetration. Brush application of CIC should only be used where penetration is not required.

• For re-touching and small applications, an Ardrox AV CIC Aerosol can be used. Preferably together with the semi-flexible nozzle Art. No.124 152 999.

page IV-9


PRACTICAL ADVICE TO TECHNICIANS

• Select a limited area for application between two stringers and frames or similar

• Treat all hidden surfaces like profiles, stringers and frames by using a 150° cone or 90° flat spray pattern wand

• Allow the Ardrox AV CIC to penetrate for some minutes

• Remove the surplus Ardrox AV CIC from plain, general surfaces

• Treat general surfaces to required film thickness MASKING

• Masking of vital components is very important

• Pipes, tubing or single wires do not need to be masked. However, they have to be kept free from CIC contamination

• Accidental over-spray of CIC has to be removed immediately ADVANTAGE OF WORKING SYSTEMATICALLY

• No missing spots on hidden surfaces

• Runs, drips and sags can easily be removed from general surfaces

• General surfaces can now be treated correctly and evenly without over spray

• Minimised fog and drips appearance

ACS LOW-PRESSURE AIRMIX Application System GENERAL INFORMATION ACS Spray Gun Art No 124 069 999 ACS Pressure Pot Art No 124 063 999 Change of cartridge, refers to the gun Release pressure from the container by pulling the relief valve. Remove the container and insert an opened ARDROX AV Corrosion Inhibiting Compound cartridge. Replace the container, ensuring that it is tight. Adjust the line air pressure to approx. 4 - 6 Bar (60 to 90 p.s.i.) and connect the line air to the spray gun. Adjusting spray pattern Spray pattern must be adjusted to suit every compound / tool combination. The quality of the aerosol is determined by the compound / air ratio, which is adjusted by turning the valve on top of the gun. The total volume of the aerosol supplied to the tool can be determined by turning the choke valve on the Extension Hose Art No 124 172 999, or on the gun. To avoid damage to the quick disconnect coupling, always use the Extension Hose, Art No 124 172 999, when connecting ACS Spray Wands to the gun. Connecting and disconnecting of tools Press the tool / extension hose carefully into the quick disconnect coupling of the spray gun until the lock snaps in. When disconnecting, pull the lock ring away from the tool, until it is released. The quick disconnect coupling must be handled with care, as aggressive handling can cause damage. Cleaning For shorter breaks, press the spray gun trigger to its first position, air will blow out the surplus compound from the gun / tool. When a job is finished, fill the container with white spirit or naphtha solvent or similar, press the trigger and flush the entire system. The gun / tool external surfaces can be cleaned with a solvent soaked cloth. Malfunction If the gun should get clogged, open the quick disconnect coupling and the adjacent mixing chamber and flush / clean it with solvent. Caution! Never point the gun / tool at people. Maintenance and repairs must always be carried out with the system unpressurized.
