Safety
2.2.3 Risks due to electrostatic charge
WARNING
The high flow velocities associated with the Airless spraying method may
cause static charging. Static discharges can cause fire and explosion.
➤
Always use open containers!
➤
Never spray solvents or solvent containing materials into cone-top cans
or drums with bunghole!
➤
Stand the containers on a grounded surface.
➤
When using metal containers watch out for contact between spray gun
and container wall.
➤
Only use conductive material hoses. All original material hoses from
WIWA
are conductive and perfectly adapted to our units.
2.2.4 Explosion protection
WARNING
Units designed without explosion protection must not be used in workshops
that come under the explosion protection ordinance!
Explosion protected units fulfil the explosion protection requirements of the
Directive 94/9/EC for the explosion group, unit category and temperature class
specified on the type plate or in the declaration of conformity.
The operator is responsible for determining the zone allocation according to the
Directive of EC 94/9/EC, Appendix II, no. 2.1-2.3 when observing the measures
of the responsible inspecting authority. The operator is responsible for checking
and ensuring that all technical data and markings according to ATEX corre-
spond with the necessary requirements.
Please note that several components have their own type plate with separate
marking according to ATEX. In this case the lowest explosion protection of all
attached markings applies for the entire unit. Applications where the malfunc-
tion of the unit can lead to danger to personnel must be provided with respec-
tive safety measures by the operator.
However, if agitators, heaters or other electrically accessories are additionally
mounted, one must check the explosion protection. Plugs for heaters, agitators,
etc. that do not have explosion protection, may only be plugged in outside of
areas that fall under the explosion protection ordinance, even if the accessory
equipment as such is explosion protected.
