Grounding - WAGNER PEA-C4-HiCoat Assembly And Operating Manual

Caution
The distance of the installed spray guns to each other must be at least 300 mm.
• Fit the spray gun to the hanger and fasten both, for example, to the gun mounting on the
reciprocator.
• Connect the spray gun to the high voltage generator using the electrical cable E.
• Connect the hose for the powder feed P to the spray gun.
• Connect the hose for the atomizing air A to the spray gun.
Hint
Using a Wagner powder injector and a suitable control unit, it is possible to
automatically blow out or purge the angled spray gun each time prior to switch off.

Grounding

For safety reasons, the spray gun must be properly grounded. This occurs through the gun
mounting.
Good grounding of the workpiece is also necessary for optimum powder coating.
A poorly grounded workpiece causes:
•
dangerous electric charging of the workpiece
•
back-spray onto spray gun and user
•
uneven coating
•
very bad wrap around
Warning
Sparks between workpiece and conveyor hooks (hangers) can occur if
hooks or other hanger parts are not completely cleaned!
These sparks can cause heavy radio frequency interference.
