7 Operation
Spray pattern and air regulation
For the IC variant, the air regulation regulates the ratio of shaping/atomizing air. For the IC
variant, the shaping and atomizing air are set individually. The spray pattern can then be
adjusted to optimally suit the object being sprayed. The illustration shows the influence of
the regulator on the spray pattern. Other nozzle sizes can be used to obtain larger or smaller
spray patterns.
