Equipment

There is a high voltage device
that can induce an electrical
charge on ungrounded objects
which is capable of igniting coat-
ing materials.

Inadequate grounding will cause
a spark hazard. A spark can
ignite many coating materials
and cause a fire or explosion.

Parts being sprayed must be supported on conveyors
or hangers and be grounded. The resistance between
the part and ground must not exceed 1 megohm.

All electrically conductive objects in the spray area,
with the exception of those objects required by the
process to be at high voltage, must be grounded.

Any person working in the spray area must be
grounded.

Unless specifically approved for use in hazardous
locations, the power supply and other electrical
control equipment must not be used in Class 1,
Division 1 or 2 locations.

Mechanical Hazards

The bell atomizer can rotate at
speeds up to 55,000 rpm. At
these speeds, the edge of the
applicator can easily cut into
skin. Loose articles can also be
caught by the rotating bell.

Personnel must stay clear of the bell whenever it
is rotating.

Before touching the bell, the turbine air must be
shut off.

If the bell has been rotating, allow at least two
minutes for it to come to a complete stop before
touching it.
