• When disassembling and assembling the rotary atomizer, make sure the atomizer cannot slip out of your hands. Take appropriate measures such as wearing rubber gloves and being assisted by a second person. • Make sure the PPH 607 is correctly assembled before operating the equipment. Revised A 6301...

• Ensure high voltage is “shut off” when servicing in the spray booth. • Prior to working on the PPH 607 make sure that the turbine has come to a complete stop. Make sure that no one can start the turbine while it is being worked on.
• Metal containers, properly grounded, should be used for cleaning solvents. • The mechanical and electrical properties of the SAMES Technologies high voltage electrostatic generators and atomizers are designed to reduce this risk of sparks. The HV applicator must main- tain at least a 1 inch per 10kV, distance from ground.

Foreword This paragraph contains information that an operator should know and understand before using the PPH 607. The purpose of this information is to indicate precautions that must be taken to prevent potentially serious damage to the atomizer.

45,000 rpm. Vibrations: If the PPH 607 vibrates abnormally, this generally means the rotating parts are unbalanced. There may be dry paint deposits on the bellcup, or it might be physically damaged or dry paint might be trapped between the injector and the clip. There also may be paint on the groove receiving the clip or on the clip itself causing unbalance.

Only use o-rings as specified in this manual. In the case of solvent borne materials, wetted rings are chemically inert to prevent any swelling or chemical deterioration. The proper operation of the PPH 607 is warranted only if used with the right size and material rings. Mechanical crash : The warranty does not apply to damages resulting from environmental causes: for example in case of a robot crashing.

The SAMES Technologies PPH 607 atomizer is covered by a 12-months warranty (two eight hours working shift). In addition, the warranty covers 10,000 hours of operation for the PPH 607 bearing air turbine. The warranty does not apply to wearing parts such as bellcups, removable regulator components, clips, and o-rings.
The PPH 607 rotary atomizer is designed for use in an automatic electrostatic spraying environment which requires equipment with fast and simple maintenance qualities. Equipped with a magnetic air bearing turbine, the PPH 607 is designed to atomize and apply various types of paints at a maximum loaded rotation speed of 45,000 RPM.
2. Introduction to atomizer (continued) 2.2. Parts description and functions Parts Function Bellcup Designed to atomize various types of paints. Specific bellcup design is selected by the type of product being sprayed. Turbine motor Designed as a high speed, durable, bearing-less drive motor; the turbine is responsible for rotating the bellcup.

3.3. Operating principle 3.3.1. Turbine rotation speed The reading is obtained using a microphone. The air supply arrives at the clip holding the bellcup. This clip is machined with a groove in which air passes with every rotation of the bellcup. This pres- sure variation causes a noise or “frequency signal”, which is sent through the injector holder to a microphone.
3.3 Operating principle (continued) 3.3.3. Turbine Motor The bearing air flows uniformly to the surface of the stator creating an air cushion which separates the rotor from the stator. The balance between air pressure and electromagnetic forces enables the rotor to float freely while maintaining its center above the stator. Drive air is used to accelerate the turbine through the turbine drive vane which is attached to the rotor.

CAUTION : On no account should the atomizer or any of its component be sprayed with solvent or high/low pressure water. SAMES Technologies does not recommend the use of covers. Although, if the plant chooses to protect atomizers with covers, do not use “anti-static quality” plastic films as these are conductive, and can short-circuit the high voltage.
