AH-06-02.12

Vector R Series Classic Applicators - Safety

Ransburg

AREA

Tells where hazards
may occur.

Spray Area

HAZARD

Tells what the hazard is.

Fire Hazard

Improper or inadequate oper­ation and maintenance proce-

dures will cause a re hazard.

Protection against inadvertent
arcing that is capable of causing

re or explosion is lost if any

safety interlocks are disabled
during operation. Frequent pow­er supply shutdown indicates a
problem in the system requiring

correction.

SAFEGUARDS

Tells how to avoid the hazard.

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, ushing or maintenance.

When using solvents for cleaning:

Those used for equipment ushing should have
ash points equal to or higher than those of the

coating material.

Those solvents used for cleaning must have a

ash point at minimum of 5°C (9°F) greater than

the ambient temperature. It is the end users re­sponsibility to insure this condition is met.

Spray booth ventilation must be kept at the rates
required by local and/or country codes. In addition,
ventilation must be maintained during cleaning op-

erations using ammable 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 modications may cause re 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.

The paint process and equipment should be set
up and operated in accordance with local and/or
country safety codes.

AREA

Tells where hazards
may occur.

Toxic
Substances

Explosion
Hazard /
Incompatible
Materials

HAZARD

Tells what the hazard is.

Certain material may be harmful
if inhaled, or if there is contact
with the skin.

Halogenated hydrocarbon sol-

vents, for example: methylene

chloride and 1,1,1, - Trichlo­roethane, are not chemically
compatible with the aluminum
that might be used in many
system components. The chem­ical reaction caused by these
solvents reacting with aluminum
can become violent and lead to

an equipment explosion.

SAFEGUARDS

Tells how to avoid the hazard.

Follow the requirements of the Material Safety Data
Sheet supplied by coating material manufacturer.

Adequate exhaust must be provided to keep the
air free of accumulations of toxic materials.

Use a mask or respirator whenever there is a
chance of inhaling sprayed materials. The mask
must be compatible with the material being sprayed
and its concentration. Equipment must be as pre-

scribed by an industrial hygienist or safety expert,

and be approved.

Spray applicators require that aluminum inlet ttings

be replaced with stainless steel. (See "Accessories"

in the "Parts Identication" section.) Aluminum is

widely used in other spray application equipment

- such as material pumps, regulators, valves, etc.
Check all other equipment items before use and
make sure they can also be used safely with these
solvents. Read the label or data sheet for the ma­terial you intend to spray. If in doubt as to whether
or not a coating or cleaning material is compatible,
contact your material supplier. Any other type of
solvent may be used with aluminum equipment.

Electrical
Equipment

High voltage equipment is uti­lized. Arcing in areas of amma­ble or combustible materials may

occur. Personnel are exposed

to high voltage during operation
and maintenance.

Protection against inadvertent

arcing that may cause a re or
explosion is lost if safety circuits

are disabled during operation.

An electrical arc can ignite coat-

ing materials and cause a re or
explosion.

Turn the power module OFF before working on
the equipment.

Test only in areas free of ammable or combus­tible material.

Testing may require high voltage to be on, but
only as instructed.

Production should never be done with the safety
circuits disabled.

Before turning the high voltage on, make sure

no objects are within the sparking distance.

INTRODUCTION

Vector R Series Classic Applicators - Introduction

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Vector
is an air-atomized method for electrosta-tically
applying product coatings. The Vector R90/70
applicator system applies a high voltage DC
charge to the applicator electrode, creating an

electrostatic eld between the atomizer and the
target object.

The Vector™ R90 Classic Spray Applicator
(see Figures 1 and 2) applies a -90 kV DC charge
to the coating materials at the point of atomization.
The Vector™ R70 Classic Spray Applicator
(see Figure 1) applies a -65 kV charge. This
electrostatic charge allows a more efcient, uni­form application of coating material to the front,
edges, sides, and back of products. It is highly
suitable for applying coatings to a variety of sur-

face congurations: large targets, small parts,

tubular wares, concave and recessed parts, etc.

Because it is a grounded uid system (for solvent

based systems), it is highly suitable for applying a
wide range of solvent reduced coatings such as

enamels, lacquers, epoxies, etc. The 79520 model

is available to accomodate waterborne materials.

A regulated pressure uid system delivers coating

material to the atomizer. At the time of triggering
the applicator, fan and atomization air is introduced,
which atomizes the coating material into a spray

mist. The atomized spray particles under the inu­ence of the electrostatic eld become electrically

charged. The charged particles are attracted to,

and deposited on, the target object. The forces

between the charged particles and the grounded

target are sufcient to turn most normal overspray

around and deposit it on the back surface of the
target. Therefore, a high percentage of the coating
is deposited on the target.

TM

R90/70 Spray Applicator process

One of the many features of the Vector R90/70
applicator system is that the electrical energy,
which is available from the resistive charging
electrode, is limited to the optimum level of safety

and efciency. The system is incapable of releas­ing sufcient electrical or thermal energy during

normal operating conditions to cause ignition of

specic hazardous materials in their most easily

ignited concentrations in air.

The power supply provides voltage output to the
applicator and contains controls for AC on/off,

high voltage adjust, "one touch" triple setpoint,

and displays kV and µA in real time.

As the applicator electrode approaches ground,
the power supply and applicator circuitry cause
the high voltage to approach zero while the current

approaches its maximum value.

W A R N I N G

!

 When more than one waterborne appli-

cator is fed from a common isolated uid

supply, there is a potential for electrical ener­gy discharge through any other applicators
when one applicator is triggered. Depend­ing upon the system capacity, this discharge
could be hazardous. Install only one spray

applicator per isolated uid supply system.
