MX bodies contain an air actuated cylinder which controls
the spray operation by means of a needle, opening or closing
the water inlet in the liquid nozzle.
Normally the air used for atomizing the liquid flows
continuously, while the air to the actuator is used to start and
stop the atomizing cycles.
For longer idle times between two atomizing cycles, where
too much atomizing air would be wasted, sequenced shut-off
should be organized for the two air lines.
The actuator air should be stopped (and the liquid flow
interrupted) before atomizing air to be sure all liquid inside is
completely atomized and dripping is avoided.
Conversely, when spray begins, atomizing air should be
started first so that incoming liquid is atomized without
dripping.
