Micro Vapor Hone

Over View:

This cabinet is perfect for small or limited spaces and a GREAT place to start with Vapor Honing. This unit is a top load and will give the same results and its a larger counterparts, maybe a little slower. Abrasive is suspended in the water with an internal agitation system. Recommended: Not to use the blast gun to clean off the glass; it will scratch. Also recommended; use only media smaller than 120.

Quick Start

  • HDPE cabinet life time warranty
  • 10-15 CFM at 60-70 PSI
  • Fill unit up with water to about 1 1/2″ from the floor. (approx. 2 gallons)
  • Unit takes 5 lbs. of abrasive ( no more than 8lbs. to fully charge)
  • Fully pneumatic (only operates with a compressor)
  • Standard regulator
  • 3/4″ ball valve in front is drain all contents to recharge
  • Put one hand in the right glove to hold part and gun, while turning unit on with left hand

Micro Vapor Hone Troubleshoot

  • 10-15 CFM at 60-70 PSI required
  • 2 gallons of water
  • 5lbs of abrasive

No abrasive coming through the gun

Test your compressor:

  • Set your regulator at 85 PSI
  • Turn your machine on
  • How much does the PSI drop right away?
    • if it drops more than 5-10 PSI, you have a compressor issue
  • How much does the PSI drop after 60 seconds?
    • if it drops gradually over the 60 seconds, you have a compressor issue

This cabinet is perfect for Hobbyists and personal use. Usage: once or twice per week. When ready step on the foot pedal to begin blasting.

Note: If you don’t feel like you are getting slurry through the gun, try unscrewing the white plastic piece on the end of gun and confirm the Boron Carbide tip inside white piece is slid in flush with the opening. If it slides back it can block the slurry line.

Quick Start

  • Stainless steel cabinet life time warranty
  • 20-30 CFM at 60-100 PSI
  • Fill unit up with water (approx. 8 gallons)
  • Unit takes 15lbs. of abrasive (no more than 10lbs) to full charge
  • Pour abrasive in over the floor and rinse down
  • Plug in 110V GFCI plug
  • On/off switch (left switch is the pump and right switch is for the lights)
  • standard regulator
  • top load
  • LED flood light
  • Top 3/4″ ball valve to drain just water
  • Bottom 3/4″ ball valve to drain both water and media

Hydro Blast

Quick Start

  • Confirm E-stop to make sure it is not pushed in
  • Make sure air is hooked up and is at 70-80 PSI
  • Fill the water up to the plug on the side of the
    cabinet above the small ball valve (water level
    must be over the Float switch)

Troubleshooting

  • Check oil level at the site window
  • Adjust pressure if need be with the adjuster knob
  • Clean out your inline filter and filter bags were dirty
  • The E-stop button should not be pushed in
  • Heater take about 3 hours to desired temp

Overview: 

This cabinet is perfect for your business start up. After blasting, rinse your part down. When you take your foot off of the pedal allow approximately 150 seconds between parts to allow the abrasive to settle to the bottom of the cabinet. At which point the overflow valve will open and equalize your water.

Note: 

If you don’t feel like you are getting slurry through the gun, try unscrewing the white plastic piece on end of gun and confirm the Boron Carbide tip inside white piece is slid in flush with the opening. If it slides back it can block the slurry line.

Quick Start

  • 20-30 CFM at 60-100 PSI
  • Fill unit up with water to the top 3/4″ ball valve (approx. 18 gallons)
  • Unit takes 25lbs. of abrasive (no more than 30lbs.) to full charge
  • Pour abrasive in over the floor and rinse down
  • Middle 3/4″ ball valve; to drain dirty water and keep the media in the hopper, this valve can be used. Once drained add clean water back to unit and restart
  • Bottom 1 1/2″ ball valve; this ball valve is used to drain the whole system water and abrasive to recharge with new water and media
  • Open loop (requires water hookup for rinsing) hook up 1/2″ red rubber hose to water hose
  • Window rinse; there is a timer labeled t1 and t2 inside the electrical box. t1 determines how often the window sprays activates and t2 is how long it sprays
  • Place container under the top ball valve for overflow drainage (5 gallon bucket will work)
  • Plug in 110V GFCI

Quick Start

Follow the instructions on the picture. Make sure the hose is connected to your Diaphragm pump. If it is not locked in place, water will shoot out onto the floor and could potentially hurt someone.
