The use of multiple guns with one isolation cabinet
may cause electric shock, fire, or explosion. To
help prevent injury or equipment damage, use only
one gun per isolation cabinet.
A Graco voltage isolation system must have the
following features:
• An isolation enclosure that prevents persons from
making contact with the high voltage components
before the system voltage is discharged. All
components of the isolation system that are
charged to high voltage must be contained within
the enclosure.
• A bleed resistor to drain off the system voltage
when the spray gun is not in use. A metal part of
the fluid supply unit must be electrically connected
to the bleed resistor.
• A safety interlock that automatically discharges the
system voltage when anyone opens the isolation
enclosure.

The system should not have any severe arcing
occurring when the isolation mechanism opens
and closes. Severe arcing will shorten the life of
the system components.

void if the electrostatic spray gun is connected to a
non-Graco voltage isolation system or if the gun is
operated above 60 kV.

Do not operate the gun unless ventilating air flow is
above the minimum required value. Provide fresh
air ventilation to avoid the buildup of flammable or
toxic vapors when spraying, flushing, or cleaning
the gun. Interlock the gun air and fluid supply
to prevent operation unless ventilating air flow is
above the minimum required value.
The spray booth must have a ventilation system.
Electrically interlock the gun air and fluid supply with
the ventilators to prevent gun operation any time that
the ventilation air flow falls below minimum values.
Check and follow all local codes and regulations
regarding air exhaust velocity requirements. Verify
the operation of the interlock at least once a year.
NOTE: The minimum allowable air exhaust velocity
is 60 feet/minute (19 linear meters/minute). High
velocity air exhaust will decrease the operating
efficiency of the electrostatic system.
