WARNING :
This equipment must only be used in spraying areas in compliance with standards EN
50176, EN 50177, EN 50223, or under equivalent ventilation conditions. To reduce health, fire and explo-
sion risks, this equipment must only be used in well ventilated areas. The efficiency of the ventilation
system must be verified on a daily basis.
Only appropriate explosion-proof electrical equipment must be used in the explosive atmos-
pheres generated by the spraying process.
Before carrying out any cleaning or general work on atomizers in the spraying area, the high-voltage
generator must be switched off and the HV atomizer circuit must be discharged to ground.
Never point the pressurized coating product or the compressed air towards persons or animals.
Suitable measures must be taken to prevent the presence of energy potential (liquid, air pressure or
electrical) in the equipment during downtimes and/or periods when the equipment is not being used.
The use of individual protective means can limit the risks caused by contact and/or inhaling of toxic prod-
ucts, gases, vapors, mist and dust likely to be generated by the equipment when it is in use. The operator
must follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the coating product.
Electrostatic spraying equipment must be serviced regularly in accordance with the information and
instructions given by SAMES Technologies.
Cleaning operations must be carried out either in authorized areas equipped with a mechanical ventila-
tion system, or using cleaning liquids with a flash point at least 5°C higher than the ambient temperature.
Only metal containers may be used for cleaning liquids, and they must be safely grounded.
The insulated supply of conductive products must be placed in a closed enclosure (by respecting an
insulating distance sufficient). Access must be controlled to the high voltage supply and equipped with
a short circuiter, which must be placed outside the dangerous areas. This device must be able to dis-
charge to the ground all the parts at high voltage before being accessibles.
Inside the booth it is forbidden to use naked flames, glowing objects or devices likely to produce sparks.
It is also forbidden to store flammable products, or recipients that have contained them, in the vicinity of
the booth.
The surrounding area must be kept clear and clean.
