A
WORKING PRINCIPLE
The DRAGON unit is defined “electric piston pump”.
An electric piston pump is used for high pressure painting without
air (from this process derives the term ”airless”).
The pump is controlled by an electric motor coupled with a reduction gear.
A cam shaft and a connecting rod allow to obtain the reciprocating
motion necessary to the working of the “pumping group” piston.
The piston movement produces a “vacuum”.
The product is sucked, pushed towards the pump outlet and then
English
sent to the gun through the flexible hose.
An electronic device located next to the reduction box, is used to
regulate and control the pressure of the material leaving the pump.
When the pump reaches the set value, the motor stops and starts
again when the value decreases.
A safety valve avoiding overpressure, guarantees the total reliability
of the equipment.
