Review this page to familiarize yourself with
some general information regarding FLEXSPRAY
paint spraying, including which spray materials
are suitable for use, and how to prepare the
spray material.
Notice:
Introduction
Coating material
Function description
The paint spraying system consists of a motor-operated turbine,
which provides the spray gun with atomization air through an air
hose.
In the spray gun, part of the air from the turbine is used to pressurize
the container. This pressure causes the coating material to be fed
through the suction tube to the uid nozzle where it is then atomized
as it exits the uid nozzle.
All settings necessary for operation (e.g. material volume, air volume)
can be conveniently adjusted directly on the gun, including start/stop
of the turbine by activating the trigger.
A main unit power switch is included on the base unit.
Coating Materials Suitable for Use
Water-based and solvent based coatings.
Coating Materials Not Suitable for Use
Materials that contain highly abrasive components, caustic solutions
and acidic coating substances. Do not use materials with a ashpoint
below 70º F (21ºC).
Preparing the coating material
Note: Observe the manufacturer’s instructions for the use of the
coating material on the material container or on the technical data
sheet.
Coating material purity
An absolute pre-condition for the trouble-free operation of the
FLEXSPRAY system is that the coating material is uncontaminated.
If you have doubts as to the purity of the coating material, we
recommend that you rst lter your coating material with a paint
strainer.
