Solution for the optimization of the paint line rinsing system.

Description

Reverse Flush is a block that allows dumping and rinsing the product supply system without going through the sprayer.

Reverse Flush comes in 2 versions, block and installation ; it can be installed within all the paint unit configurations : It will depend on the distance between the pump and the sprayer.

• Remote Reverse Flush block
When the pump is to be placed far away from the sprayer (distance > to 1.5 m) as in the case of the «Slim Arm» on which no pump can be assembled, then the so-called "remote" reverse flush block is used and is ideally placed at a distance comprised between 1 to 1.5 m from the sprayer.

• Built-in Reverse Flush block
When the pump is placed close to the sprayer (distance < to 1.5 m) as in the case of the «Process Arm», then the reverse flush block is directly assembled onto the pump. The reverse flush block called "built-in" is used. This configuration is optimal with a simplified installation.

Custumer benefits

When the pump is placed close to the sprayer (distance < to 1.5 m) as in the case of the «Process Arm», then the reverse flush block is directly assembled onto the pump. The reverse flush block called "built-in" is used. This configuration is optimal with a simplified installation.

• The block is close to the sprayer thus allowing a smaller product hose diameter (Dia. : 4 mm instead of 5mm) = Paint saving.
• The pump priming with circuit 2 during the end of the spraying of circuit 1 becomes possible = Cycle time decrease and colour change time decreased.

• When the paint circuit is equipped with long lengths of hosing, the block can be placed any where on the paint circuit to cut the circuit, thus allowing dissociating the rinsing of both parts = Optimization of rinsing times.
