Safety
2.2.3 Risks caused by electrostatic charging
WARNING
The high flow velocities associated with the Airless spraying method may
cause electrostatic charging. Static discharges can cause fire and explosion.
➤
Make sure that the unit and the object to be coated are earthed correctly!
➤
Always use open containers!
➤
Never spray solvents or materials containing solvents 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 equipment.
WARNING
If the unit is contaminated during spraying by coating material, the increasing
coating thickness may cause electrostatic charging. Static discharges can
cause fire and explosion.
➤
Clean the unit immediately outside the hazardous area from contamina-
tion by coating material.
2.2.4 Explosion protection
WARNING
Units that are designed without explosion protection must not be used in
workshops that come under the explosion protection ordinance.
Explosion-protected units meet the explosion protection requirements of Di-
rective 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 unit components have their own type plate with sep-
arate marking according to ATEX. In this case the lowest explosion protection
of all attached markings applies for the entire unit. Applications where mal-
functioning of the unit can lead to danger to personnel must be provided with
appropriate 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.
