Safety
2.2.3 Risks due to electrostatic charging
WARNING
The high flow speeds with the airless spray process can result in an electro-
static charge. Static charges can result in fire and explosions.
➤
Ensure that the machine is correctly earthed outside of EX zones!
➤
Also earth the object that is to be coated.
➤
Always use open containers!
➤
Never spray solvents or materials containing solvents into narrow-
mouthed cans or barrels with a bung opening!
➤
Set the container down on an earthed surface.
➤
Use electrically conductive containers.
➤
Always ensure contact between the spray gun and the container wall.
➤
Only use electrically conductive material hoses.
All original material hoses from
WIWA
are conductive and designed for
our machines.
WARNING
If the machine becomes contaminated with material during operation, an
electrostatic charge may be generated with the increasing coating thickness.
Static charges can result in fire and explosions.
➤
Clean the machine of contaminants immediately.
➤
Perform the cleaning work outside of EX zones.
2.2.4 Risks due to hot or cold surfaces
CAUTION
When using material heaters, the machine surfaces may become hot. A risk
of burns exists.
➤
When processing heated materials always wear protective gloves with
forearm protection!
CAUTION
Air motors become very cold during operation. Localised freezing can arise
with contact.
➤
Prior to all work on the machine, heat air motors up to a temperature
above 10 °C.
➤
Wear suitable protective gloves!
