Processing Equipment <br />2:1 transfer pumps are recommended for material <br />transfer from container to the proportioner. The plural <br />component proportioner must be capable of supply- <br />ing each component within t 2% of the desired 1:1 <br />mixing ratio by volume. 1-lose heaters should be <br />set to deliver 120°F to 135°F materials to the spray <br />gun. 'these settings will ensure thorough mixing in <br />the spray gun mix chamber in typical applications. <br />Optimum hose pressure and temperature will vary <br />with equipment type and condition, ambient and sub- <br />strate conditions, and the specific application. It is the <br />responsibility of the applicator to properly interpret <br />equipment technical literature, particularly imorna- <br />tion that relates to the acceptable combinations of <br />gun chamber size, proportioner output, and material <br />pressures. The relationship between proper chamber <br />size and the capacity of the proportioner's pre -heater <br />is critical. Mechanical purge spray duns (specifically <br />direct impingement or DI type) arc recommended for <br />highest foam quality. <br />CAUTION: Extreme care must be taken when <br />removing and reinstalling drum transfer pumps so <br />as NOT to reverse the "A" and "B" components. <br />Processing Parameters and <br />Physical Characteristics <br />Pre -heater Temperature: <br />"A"and"B-120-135°F <br />Hose empera ore: <br />-A"d'BM-135 <br />ressures: <br />1000-1500 psi (dynamic)* <br />Mix Ratio Parts: <br />1 to 1 by volume "A" to'B" <br />Viscosity at 75T <br />400-500 cps -B" Component <br />Shelf Life <br />6 months @ 65TF to 60°F <br />r Dependent upon hose length. <br />Thermal Barrier <br />The International Building Code and International <br />Residential Code requires that SPF be separated from <br />the interior of a building by an approved fifteen <br />(15) minute thermal barrier, such as 1 f2" gypsum <br />wall board or equivalent, installed per manufacturer's <br />instructions and corresponding code requirements. <br />The International Building Code allows for omission <br />of the prescribed thermal barrier in certain instance, <br />such as: <br />• attics and crawlspaces with limited access <br />approval by way of diversified testing, such <br />as room corner protocols <br />Local building codes may vary and must be consulted <br />for applicability of thermal barrier exceptions. <br />Handling Information <br />Applicators should ensure the safety of the jobsite <br />. ",d construction personnel by posting appropriate <br />signs warning that all "hot work" such as welding, <br />soldering, and cutting with torches should not take <br />place until a thermal barrier or approved equivalent is <br />installed over any exposed polyurethane foam. <br />Vapor Retarder ` <br />Bayseal CC qualifies as a vapor retarder as defined <br />by the International Code Council and ASHR.AE <br />(Class 11) at a minimum thickness of one inch. Build- <br />ing construction types with a persistent, high mois- <br />ture drive require additional moisture remediation. <br />The contractor should consult local building codes to <br />establish the vapor retarder requirement. <br />Page 3 of 4 — Document contains important information and must be read in its entirety. <br />
