GROUNDING
A poorly grounded work piece causes:
Very bad wrap around
Uneven coating
Back spraying to the spray gun (contamination) and coater
Prerequisites for perfect grounding and coating are:
Clean work piece suspension.
Grounding of spray booth, conveyor system and suspension on the building side in
accordance with the operating instruction or the manufacturer's information.
Grounding of all conductive parts within the working area.
The grounding resistance of the work piece may not exceed 1 MΩ (Megohm).
Note:
Resistance to ground measured at 500 V or 1000 V.
Connect the control unit to the system ground.
Heavy paint mist if grounding is insuffi
cient!
Danger of poisoning.
Insuffi
cient paint application quality.
Ground all device components.
Ground the work pieces to be coated.
