Exhaust fan(s)
The exhaust fan pulls air out of the booth and vents it to the outside.
NOTE
Depending on the size of your booth, it may have more than one exhaust fan.
CAUTION
Damage in shipping and handling or poor installation of the unit may upset the fan’s balance. A fan blade
that is not properly balanced can lead to excessive vibration, causing undue wear on the entire unit.
All GFS fan assemblies are statically and dynamically balanced to Balance Quality Grade G6.3. Each fan is
factory run-tested for vibration in accordance with ANSI/ AMCA 204-96 “Balance Quality and Vibration
Levels for Fans” to Fan Application Category BV-3, to the following peak velocity values, filter-in, at the fan
test speed:
• Rigidly Mtd. (in/sec): 0.15
• Flexibly Mtd. (in/sec): 0.20
Vibration cannot be guaranteed under field conditions due to mounting and installation variables. If vibration
is excessive, shut down the fan and determine the cause. See “Common causes of excessive vibration”
(page 41).
Lighting
The light fixtures are designed for locations exposed to volatile flammable liquids or gases. An interlocking
safety switch disables spray-gun operation if any of the light fixture covers are not properly closed.

Operator interface terminal
The operator interface terminal is the screen or pushbutton controls the operator uses to control the booth.

panel operator manual for your booth model.
