Fire Hazard
Improper or inadequate operation
and maintenance procedures will
cause a fire hazard.
Protection against inadvertent
arcing that is capable of causing
fire or explosion is lost if any
safety interlocks are disabled
during operation. Frequent power
supply shutdown indicates a
problem in the system requiring
correction.
Fire extinguishing equipment must be present in the
spray area and tested periodically.
Spray areas must be kept clean to prevent the
accumulation of combustible residues.
Smoking must never be allowed in the spray area.
The high voltage supplied to the atomizer must be
turned off prior to cleaning, flushing or maintenance.
When using solvents for cleaning:
Those used for equipment flushing should have flash
points equal to or higher than those of the coating
material.
Those used for general cleaning must have flash
points above 100oF (37.8oC).
Spray booth ventilation must be kept at the rates
required by NFPA-33, OSHA, and local codes. In
addition, ventilation must be maintained during
cleaning operations using flammable or combustible
solvents.
Electrostatic arcing must be prevented.
Test only in areas free of combustible material.
Testing may require high voltage to be on, but only
as instructed.
Non-factory replacement parts or unauthorized
equipment modifications may cause fire or injury.
If used, the key switch bypass is intended for use
only during setup operations. Production should
never be done with safety interlocks disabled.
Never use equipment intended for use in waterborne
installations to spray solvent based materials.
The paint process and equipment should be set up
and operated in accordance with NFPA-33, NEC, and
OSHA requirements.

REA III 100kV Automatic ApplicatorREA III 100kV Automatic Applicator
The
REA III 100kV Automatic Applicator
REA III 100kV Automatic ApplicatorREA III 100kV Automatic Applicator
applies a high voltage charge to the coating materials at the point of atomization using a 100kV
power supply. This electrostatic charge allows a
more efficient, uniform application of coating material to the front, edges, sides, and back of products, making it highly suitable for applying a wide
range of coatings to a variety of surface configurations: large targets, small parts, tubular wares,
concave and recessed parts, etc. It is available as
a grounded fluid system for solvent reduced coatings such as enamels, lacquers, epoxys, etc.

One of the many safety features of the REA III 100
kV Automatic Applicator is the capability of limiting, to a desirable level, the electrical discharge
which is available from the charging electrode.
When organic solvent base paints are being
sprayed, this level must not exceed 0.25 mJ of
energy. In order to achieve this limitation, it is
necessary to prevent any flow of energy from the
paint supply through the paint line to the applicator
electrode. This is accomplished by grounding the
paint line at the applicator.

3. Install Filters: Install the optional fluid filter on
output of fluid supply. Detail depends on whether
pressure tank, pump unit, recirculating system,
etc. is used. Filter must be installed vertically with
drain valve down and arrow pointing in direction
of flow (see Figure 1).
4. Install Line Hose (Air or Fluid):
> ITW Ransburg supplies a standard
25 ft. (8m) hose. Optional hose lengths of
36 ft. (11m), 50 ft. (15m), 75 ft. (23m), and
100 ft. (31m) are available. To meet
various length requirements, the hose
fitting on one end has not been attached.
Determine the hose length that is needed
and cut the hose. Attach the other fitting
as follows:
a. Lubricate all fittings with petroleum jelly.
b. Screw ferrule counter-clockwise onto hose
until it bottoms. Then back it off about 1/8inch (3mm).

c. Install nut over union stem and start the stem
into the hose.
d. Using the 1/8-inch Allen wrench, screw the
union stem into the hose until it bottoms
against the ferrule.
e. Connect one end of one hose to the appro-
priate fitting on the bottom of the applicator
body and the other end to the power supply
pressure switch for trigger air. Attach the
other hose to the atomizing air source.

from the grounded booth wall, chain link fence,
or other grounded objects.
• Air hoses to the pressure pot or pump on the
insulating stand should be nonconductive. Many
rubber hoses will have static grounding circuits
or carbon content and are
• Air regulators for pots or pumps should be
mounted remotely outside the fence or cage
area to facilitate changes in pressure without
shutting the system down.
• Grounding hooks at the cage
to ground portions of the system when
personnel are working close by.

Using waterborne coating with electrostatic
equipment requires that the fluid source should
be isolated from ground and other precautions be
taken to ensure operator safety and system
efficiency. The following guidelines should be
followed:
