User Manual - Safety
Electrical
Equipment
High voltage equipment is utilized.
Arcing in areas of flammable or
combustible materials may oc-
cur. Personnel are exposed to
high voltage during operation and
maintenance.
Protection against inadvertent
arcing that may cause a fire or
explosion 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 coat-
ing materials and cause a fire or
explosion.
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-33.
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.
Explosion Hazard/
Incompatible
Materials
Halogenated hydrocarbon sol-
vents
for example: methylene
chloride and 1,1,1,-Trichloroeth-
ane are not chemically compatible
with the aluminum that might be
used in many system components.
The chemical reaction caused by
these solvents reacting with alu-
minum can become violent and
lead to an equipment explosion.
Aluminum is widely used in other spray application
equipment - such as material pumps, regulators,
triggering valves, etc. Halogenated hydrocarbon
solvents must never be used with aluminum equip-
ment during spraying, flushing, or cleaning. Read
the label or data sheet for the material you intend to
spray. If in doubt as to whether or not a coating or
cleaning material is compatible, contact your mate-
rial supplier. Any other type of solvent may be used
with aluminum equipment.
Improper operation or mainte-
nance may create a hazard.
Personnel must be properly
trained in the use of this equip-
ment.
Personnel must be given training in accordance with
the requirements of NFPA-33.
Instructions and safety precautions must be read
and understood prior to using this equipment.
Comply with appropriate local, state, and national
codes governing ventilation, fire protection, opera-
tion maintenance, and housekeeping. Reference
OSHA, NFPA- 33, and your insurance company
requirements.
