Spray Area
Fire Hazard
Improper or inadequate op-
eration and maintenance pro-
cedures will cause a fire hazard.
Protection against inadvertent
arcing that is capable of caus-
ing fire or explosion is lost if any
safety interlocks are disabled
during operation. Frequent
power supply shutdown indi-
cates a problem in the system
requiring correction.
Fire extinguishing equipment must be present in
the spray area and tested periodically.
Spray areas must be kept clean to prevent the
accumulation of combustible residues.
Smoking must never be allowed in the spray area.
The high voltage supplied to the atomizer must
be turned off prior to cleaning, flushing or main-
tenance.
When using solvents for cleaning:
Those used for equipment flushing should have
flash points equal to or higher than those of the
coating material.
Those used for general cleaning must have flash
points above 100
°
F (37.8
o
C).
Spray booth ventilation must be kept at the rates
required by NFPA-33, OSHA, and local codes. In
addition, ventilation must be maintained during
cleaning operations using flammable or combus-
tible solvents.
Electrostatic arcing must be prevented.
Test only in areas free of combustible material.
Testing may require high voltage to be on, but
only as instructed.
Non-factory replacement parts or unauthorized
equipment modifications may cause fire or injury.
If used, the key switch bypass is intended for use
only during set-up operations. Production should
never be done with safety interlocks disabled.
Never use equipment intended for use in wa-
terborne installations to spray solvent based
materials.
The paint process and equipment should be set
up and operated in accordance with NFPA-33,
NEC, and OSHA requirements.
