Explosion Protection - WAGNER ProjectPro 119 Owner's Manual

All local regulations in force must be observed.
For secure handling of Airless high-pressure spraying units the
following safety regulations are to be observed:
Flash point
U
Only use coating materials with a flash point of 21 °C
or above without additional heating.
The flash point is the lowest temperature at which
vapors develop from the coating material.
Danger
These vapors are sufficient to form an inflammable
mixture over the air above the coating material.

Explosion protection

U
Do not use the unit in work places which are covered
to the explosion protection regulations.
Danger
Danger of explosion and fire through
U
sources of flame during spraying work
There may be no sources of flame such as, for
example, open fires, smoking of cigarettes, cigars or
tobacco pipes, sparks, glowing wires, hot surfaces,
Danger
etc. in the vicinity.
Danger of injury through the spray jet
U
Danger
Caution! Danger of injury through injection!
Never point the spray gun at yourself, other persons or animals.
Never use the spray gun without spray jet safety guard.
The spray jet may not come into contact with any part of the
body.
All hoses, fittings, and filter parts must be secured before
operating spray pump. Unsecured parts can eject at great force
or leak a high pressure fluid stream causing severe injury.
In working with Airless spray guns, the high spray pressures
arising can cause very dangerous injuries. If contact is made with
the spray jet, coating material can be injected into the skin. Do
not treat a spray injury as a harmless cut. In the case of injury to
the skin through coating material or solvents, consult a doctor
for quick and correct treatment. Inform the doctor about the
coating material or solvent used.
Secure spray gun against unintended
U
operation
Always secure the spray gun when mounting or dismounting the
tip and in case of interruption to work.
PP119 - Safety Information
Recoil of spray gun
U
In case of high operating pressure, pulling the
trigger can effect a recoil force of up to 15 N.
If you are not prepared for this, your hand can be
thrust backwards or your balance lost. This can lead
Danger
to injury.
Respiratory protection for protection
U
against vapors of solvents
Wear respiratory protection when spraying.
The user must be provided with a breathing mask.
Prevention of occupational illnesses
U
Protective clothing, gloves and possibly skin protection cream are
necessary for the protection of the skin.
Observe the regulations of the manufacturer concerning coating
materials, solvents and cleaning agents in preparation, processing
and cleaning units.
Max. operating pressure
U
Max. permissible operating pressure for spray gun, spray gun
accessories and high-pressure hose may not fall short of the
maximum operating pressure of 200 bar (20 MPa) stated on the
unit.
High-pressure hose (safety note)
U
Electrostatic charging of spray guns and the high-pressure hose
is discharged through the high-pressure hose. For this reason the
electric resistance between the connections of the high-pressure
hose must be equal or lower than 197 kΩ/m (60 kΩ/ft.).
i
For reasons of function, safety and durability use
only original WAGNER high-pressure hoses.
Electrostatic charging (formation of
U
sparks or flame)
Under certain circumstances, electrostatic charging
can occur on the unit due to the rate of flow of the
coating material when spraying. On discharging this
can result in the emergence of sparks or fire. It is
therefore necessary that the unit is always earthed
through the electrical installation. The connection
Danger
must take place through a correctly earthed
two-pole-and-earth socket outlet.
Using unit on construction sites
U
Connection to the mains only through a special feed point, e.g.
through an error protection installation with INF ≤ 30 mA.
Setting up the unit
U
When working indoors:
Vapors containing solvents may not be allowed to
build up in the area of the device.
Setting up the unit on the side a way from the
sprayed object.
