The higher the bore diameter, the more 

the material flowing out. The greater the 

angle, the broader is the spray pattern.

Control air pressure is controlled externally 

via valves.
The spraying air pressure (A) is controlled 

externally via valves. The horn air pressure 

and atomizer air pressure can be adjusted 

on the spray gun by means of the horn air 

pressure (F) and the atomizer air control (R).
The material pressure is controlled externally 

via valves.
