AH-06-01.13
Ransburg
Vector R Series Cascade Applicators - Safety
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 modications 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 Identication" 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.

Vector R Series Cascade Applicators - Introduction
INTRODUCTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Ransburg
The Vector
is an air-atomized method for electrostatically
applying product coatings. The Vector R90/R70
Spray Applicator system applies a high voltage
DC charge to the applicator electrode, creating
an electrostatic eld between the atomizer and
the target object.
Vector™ R90 Cascade Spray Applicator (see
Figure 1) applies a -85 kV DC charge to the coating
materials at the point of atomization. The Vector™
R70 Cascade Spray Applicator applies a -65 kV
charge. This electrostatic charge allows a more
efcient, 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
surface congurations: 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 79523
model is available to accommodate 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 inuence 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 sufcient 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
applicator system is that the electrical energy,
which is available from the resistive charging
electrode, is limited to the optimum level of safety
and efciency. The system is incapable of releasing sufcient electrical or thermal energy during
normal operating conditions to cause ignition of
specic hazardous materials in their most easily
ignited concentrations in air.
The control unit or power supply provides voltage
output to the applicator and contains controls for
AC on/off, high voltage adjust, and displays kV
and µA in real time.
As the applicator electrode approaches ground,
the control unit 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. It is best to only install
one applicator per isolated supply.
