GROUNDING
It is important for systems safety and to achieve an optimum coating that all system
components such as work pieces, conveyors, paint supply, control unit and booth or
spraying stand are perfectly grounded.
WARNING
Heavy paint mist if grounding is insufficient!
Danger of poisoning.
Insufficient paint application quality.
Ground all device components.
Ground the work pieces to be coated.
A poorly grounded work piece causes:
– very bad wrap around,
– uneven coating,
– back spraying to the spray gun, i.e., contamination.
Prerequisites for perfect grounding and coating:
– Clean work piece suspension.
– Grounding of spray booth, conveyor system and suspension on the building side in
accordance with the operating manuals 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 (megaohm) (ground
leakage resistance measured at 500 V or 1000 V).
– Connect the AquaCoat cabinet to the signal ground.
– Connect all ground cables using a short and direct route.
– Safety shoes and gloves, if used, must be static dissipative.
