5�2 Mounting the VOGT Air Lance with the VOGT
sandblasting unit
When using the VOGT sandblasting unit, ensure that the abrasive medium
is dry and free from lumps and caking. Damp abrasive medium can
become lumpy and is often the reason for malfunctions. Maximum grain
size 1.5 mm.
To mount the VOGT Air Lance with the VOGT sandblasting unit, please
proceed as follows:
1. Slide the rubber protection cap onto the lance tube.
2. Screw the VOGT sandblasting unit onto the lance tube.
3. Place the intake tube with the intake hose into the abrasive medium.
5�3 Mounting the VOGT Air Lance with the VOGT spray
attachment
To mount the VOGT Air Lance with the VOGT spray attachment, please
proceed as follows:
1. Slide the rubber protection cap onto the lance tube.
2. Screw the VOGT spray attachment onto the lance tube.
3. Place the intake tube with the intake hose into the liquid storage tank.
5�4 Establishing the compressed air supply
The compressed air supply (e.g. from a compressor) must meet the
following criteria:
Only use non-lubricated, condensate-free compressed air. Use a
processing unit for compressed air if required.
Working pressure range: 3 to 10 bar (43 to 145 psi).
Different levels of working pressure are recommended for materials
that require different application methods. As a general principle, the
lower the material resistance, the lower the recommended operating
pressure.
An effective feed rate of at least 2,500 l/min up to 3,400 l/min
(standard). If the delivery rate deviates, an adapted nozzle must be
used.
