e) Cleaning the Spray nozzles
Please handle the Nozzle electrode with care when cleaning or at
maintenance – Danger of injury!
Never bend or pull on the electrode!
Daily or after each shift:
- Clean the outside of the spray nozzles with compressed air.
Solvents or other liquids can be used.
Clean only with a damped cloth, never submerse the parts in solvent!
- Check the seating of the spray nozzle.
Make sure that the threaded sleeve is always tightened correctly.
If the flat jet nozzle is loosely fitted, high-voltage from the gun can
“flash over” and damage the gun!
Weekly:
-
Remove the spray nozzles and clean the inside with compressed air
Sintered powder accumulations should also be removed.
Monthly:
- Check the spray nozzles for wear.
Replace the flat jet nozzle if:
- the spray pattern is no longer a perfect oval.
- deep grooves are present in the nozzle slot, or if the wall thickness has decreased.
- the wedge at the rear of the electrode holder is worn.
