Operating manual Powder Cup Gun PEM-X1 CG
6 Assembly and Commissioning
Good grounding of the work piece is also necessary for optimum powder coating.
A poorly grounded work piece causes:
– dangerous electric charging of the work piece
– very bad wrap-around
– uneven coating
– back spraying to the spray gun, i.e., contamination
Prerequisites for perfect grounding and coating of a work piece are:
– Clean suspension of the work piece to be coated.
– That a grounding resistance of the work piece of 1 MΩ is not exceeded
(resistance to ground measured at 500 V or 1000 V).
Sparks between conveyor, conveyor hooks (hangers) and work piece can occur if
electric contact points between conveyor, conveyor hooks (hangers) and work piece
are not sufficiently cleaned and therefore the work pieces are not sufficiently
grounded! These sparks can cause heavy radio frequency interference (EMC).
