FORCE/3
3.0 & 4.0 DP
Sidewall Tech Notes, Cont.
CELLULOSE WET SPRAY
Your Force/3 can apply both wall-spray and spray-on materials. There
are many different types of material for these applications and
depending upon the material your results will differ. The Force/3 has
been designed to apply most materials and can recycle up to 50/50
blend of Dry/Wet cellulose material. Using recycled material will change
the speed of the material traveling through the hose and will change
the impact velocity and thus the density of the material being sprayed.
It is recommended that you test a small area of wall section to
determine optimum machine settings before starting a job. Loading of
the hopper can affect the desired wall-spray job, we recommend that
when loading the hopper
DO NOT dispense wet material into an
empty hopper!
, doing so may clog hose! Dispense wet material on top
of dry material and allow the agitator to blend the materials. Hose
length and nozzle orifice size and design play a key role to a successful
application. Depending on the nozzle you select will determine how to
set up the machine. General guideline for setting your machine up are,
100 feet of 2 or 2-1/2" hose, variable speed setting of 80-100% with the
slide gate 1/4-1/3 open. When using 2 or 2-1/2" hose we recommend
using an insert tube (PN 22049-06) to enhance setup and reduce the
likely hood of clogging the hose. For further information on Cellulose
Wall-Spray or Spray-On applications consult
Intec
or your local supplier
of material.
FIGURING WALL CAVITY AREA
Measure wall cavity in inches.
Multiply depth x width x height, divide by 1728.
Example: 3-1⁄2" x 14-1⁄2" x 92-5⁄8" = 4700 CI / 1728 = 2.72 cubic feet
(1728 is the number of cubic inches per cubic foot)
