Connect FTS and Heated Dual Whip Hose
1. Assemble JIC swivel fitting (5e) in female
end of temp sensor (5a). Do not bend or
kink probe. Torque connection to 14 ft-lbs
(19 N•m). Do not over-torque. Assemble
JIC swivel fitting (5d) into female end of B
hose coupler (5b). Torque to a maximum of
20 ft-lbs (27 N•m). Do not over-torque.
2. Carefully inset FTS probe into the A hose
(1) section from the proportioner. Do not
bend or kink probe. Connect to A side whip
(6a). Torque fitting connections to 14 ft-lbs
(19 N•m). Do not over-torque.
3. Connect the B hose coupler to the B hose
section (2) and B side whip (6b). Torque fit-
ting connections to 20 ft-lbs (27 N•m). Do
not over-torque.
4. Connect ground wire (K) of whip hose to
the ground screw on the FTS (5a).
5. Connect the electrical connectors (12).
6. Connect the FTS air line coupler (5c)
between air hoses (3 and 8).
7. Connect the sensor cable of the hose (4) to
the sensor cable of the FTS (5a). For
non-RTD hoses, slide the insulator sleeves
(S) over the connection. Leave slack in the
cables to provide stress relief and to pre-
vent cable failure or errors.
8. See Check Hoses for Leaks, page 21.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to probe, do not kink or
excessively bend hose. Do not coil hose
tighter than the minimum bend radius of 3 ft
(0.9 m). Do not subject hose to excessive
weight, impact, or other abuse.
See FIG. 13 on page 19.
For 1/2 in. (13 mm) ID fluid hoses
only: Prior to connecting the FTS,
remove the adapters from the propor-
tioner fluid manifold and install them on
the male ends of the hoses (1 and 2).
Torque the A side hose to a maximum
of 43 ft-lbs (58 N•m) and the B side
hose to a maximum of 55 ft-lbs (74
N•m). Continue on to step 1.
A grounding wire must be used to provide
grounding.
Whip hose ground wire (K) must be
connected to the ground screw on the
FTS (5a) in order to drain static from the
gun. If the FTS is not directly connected
to the whip hose, a hose that includes a
separate ground wire must be used
between the FTS and whip hose. Con-
nect ground through a hose marked as
not having the FTS cable selected from
the “Standard 2 Component Hose” table
in the front of this manual.
