GROUNDING THE DEVICE
The electrostatic charge may, in certain cases, give rise to electrostatic charges on the
device. This may result in the formation of sparks or fl ames when discharging.
Ensure that the device is grounded before each coating process.
All the system's conductive elements, such as fl oors, walls, ceilings, protective
grating, transport equipment, work pieces, powder tanks, automatic moving devices
or construction parts etc. in the spray area, with the exception of parts which carry
high-voltage during operation, must be connected to the grounding system.
Parts of the booth must be grounded in accordance with EN 12981.
Ensure that all persons inside the working area are grounded, e.g., by wearing
electrostatically conductive shoes.
The functionality of grounding cables must be checked regularly (see EN 60204).
