Soft Start/Smart Start
™
System (RTX2000pi only)
“Smart” vs. “Soft”
•
“Smart” refers to the function where the
motor starts and stops when the trigger
is pulled and released. This keeps the
sprayer at full operating pressure and
allows the sprayer to spray immediately
when the gun is triggered.
• “Soft” refers to the function where the
sprayer slowly starts the pump. This
prevents a large “splotch” of material
from being discharged from the gun
when trigger is pulled after the sprayer
has sat idle for a period of time.
Smart Start
The Smart Start System is controlled by
compressed air in the tanks and lines. When
gun is triggered, air flows through the lines
and opens a flow switch. There is also
another pressure switch that senses when
the compressed air system is at operating
pressure. This second pressure switch
allows the sprayer to start immediately when
the sprayer is turned ON charging the
compressed air system to full pressure. This
method keeps the compressed air system at
operating pressure if there is a small air leak
in the system.
Soft Start
The Soft Start System is controlled by motor
power and an air cylinder. When pressurized,
the air cylinder pushes the rollers into the
peristaltic pump pushing material through the
pump. When the motor shuts off, a solenoid
valve relieves the pressure in the air cylinder
causing the rollers to disengage from the
peristaltic pump. When the motor starts again
there is a time delay while the air cylinders
charge and move the rollers into the pump
this is the “Soft Start”.
