INSTRUCTIONS
Model H.E.L.P. 1600
STAINLESS STEEL FLUID PASSAGES
High Efficiency Low Pressure
Automatic Air Spray Gun
100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar) Maximum Working Fluid Pressure
100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar) Maximum Working Air Pressure*
65 psi (444 kPa, 4.5 bar) Maximum Operating Air Pressure**
* The Maximum Working Air Pressure is the maxi-
mum air pressure the gun was designed to operate
safely under.
** The Maximum Operating Air Pressure is the maxi-
mum inlet air pressure allowable to guarantee HVLP
compliance. If input pressures are maintained at or
below 65 psi (444 kPa, 4.5 bar), internal restrictors
will reduce this to 10 psi (70 kPa, 0.7 bar) maximum
air cap pressure.
