AIR SUPPLY
The air supply pressure to the container should be clean and not be greater
than 80 psi. Higher pressure or contaminated air will shorten the spray gun life
because of faster wear, and could become a safety hazard.
Water in the airline will also cause damage and may contaminate the paint
being used. Ensure the air supply is properly filtered.
The recommended procedure to connect the container to an air supply is
described below. A filter/regulator should always be incorporated in the air
supply line.
The air inlet used for connecting air supply has a standard ¼” BSP thread.
Airline pressure, or supply hose inside diameter, should be increased to
compensate for unusually long air hoses (over 10 m). The minimum hose
diameter should be 6mm (¼”) ID and fittings should have the same internal
dimensions.
OPERATION
This CPP2B paint container is designed primarily for spraying oil and solvent
based paint. Clarke International provides a range of spray guns which may
be used with this container. Please see examples on page 11.
1. Mix the paint to the correct viscosity for spraying according to the
manufacturer’s instructions and strain it into the paint canister through a
fine mesh filter. When mixing the paint, make sure that you have enough
thinners left to clean the spray gun after use.
2. Unscrew the lid and fill the paint
container with paint. Replace the
lid and tighten securely.
3. Connect the air supply hose to
the air inlet, (using a suitable in-
line connector if required).
4. Connect the (orange) air hose
from the spray gun, to the air
outlet.
WARNING: ALWAYS CHECK TO ENSURE THE CONTAINER IS NOT UNDER
PRESSURE BEFORE USE, BY CHECKING THE PRESSURE GAUGE AND
OPENING THE AIR OUTLET VALVE.
