Requirements
The use of multiple guns with one isolation cabinet
may cause electric shock, fire, or explosion. To
help prevent injury or equipment damage, use only
one gun per isolation cabinet.
To spray with electrostatics, the spray gun must be
connected to a voltage isolation system such as a
Graco HydroShield or WB100.
A voltage isolation system must have the following
features:
• An isolation enclosure that prevents persons from
making contact with the high voltage components
before the system voltage is discharged. All
components of the isolation system that are
charged to high voltage must be contained within
the enclosure.
• A bleed resistor to drain off the system voltage
when the spray gun is not in use. A metal part of
the fluid supply unit must be electrically connected
to the bleed resistor.
• A safety interlock that automatically discharges the
system voltage when anyone opens the isolation
enclosure.
Note
The Graco warranty and approvals are void if
the electrostatic spray gun is connected to a
non-Graco voltage isolation system or if the
gun is operated above 60 kV.

Mount warning signs in the spray area where they
can easily be seen and read by all operators. An
English Warning Sign is provided with the gun.

Do not operate the gun unless ventilating air flow is
above the minimum required value. Provide fresh
air ventilation to avoid the buildup of flammable or
toxic vapors when spraying, flushing, or cleaning
the gun. Interlock the gun air and fluid supply
to prevent operation unless ventilating air flow is
above the minimum required value.
The spray booth must have a ventilation system.
Electrically interlock the gun air and fluid supply with
the ventilators to prevent gun operation any time that
the ventilation air flow falls below minimum values.
Check and follow all local codes and regulations
regarding air exhaust velocity requirements. Verify
the operation of the interlock at least once a year.
