Equipment Equipment Equipment Equipment
High voltage equipment is utilized.
Arcing in areas of flammable or
combustible materials may occur.
Personnel are exposed to high
voltage during operation and main-
tenance.
Protection against inadvertent arc-
ing that may cause a fire or explo-
sion is lost if safety circuits are
disabled during operation.
Frequent power supply shut-down
indicates a problem in the system
which requires correction.
An electrical arc can ignite coating
materials and cause a fire or explo-
sion.
The power supply, optional remote control cabinet,
and all other electrical equipment must be located
outside Class I or II, Division 1 and 2 hazardous areas.
Refer to NFPA No. 33, 1995 Edition.
Turn the power supply OFF before working on the
equipment.
Test only in areas free of flammable or combustible
material.
Testing may require high voltage to be on, but only as
instructed.
Production should never be done with the safety
circuits disabled.
Before turning the high voltage on, make sure no
objects are within the sparking distance.

This is a high voltage ungrounded
device that can produce electrical
arcs capable of igniting coating
materials. 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.
(Reference NFPA Bulletin No. 33, 1995 Edition.)
A safe distance must be maintained between the
parts being coated and the atomizer bell. A distance
of at least 1 inch for each 10 kV of power supply output
voltage is required at all times.
Parts must be supported so that they will not swing
and reduce the clearance specified above.
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.
Unless specifically approved for use in hazardous
locations, the power supply and other electrical equip-
ment must not be used in Class I, Division 1 or 2
locations.
