The plastic parts of the spray gun are charged electrostatically by the high-voltage field
of the spray pistol. Harmless discharges (brush discharges) are possible after contact with
plastic parts. They are completely harmless for people.
The corona discharge at the electrode end is visible during darkness at a distance of be-
tween 4 and 10 mm; 0.15 and 0.4 inches, between the spray gun and spray object.
