11 FUNCTION TEST AFTER REPAIR WORK
After all repair work, the spray gun must be checked for safe condition before
recommissioning. The necessary scope of inspection and testing depends on the repair
carried out and must be documented by the repair personnel.
Assembly inspection
ActivityMeans
1. Leak test
– Connect 1 bar; 0.1 MPa; 14.50 psi and 8 bar; 0.8 MPa; 116 psi air pressure
to the air connection and product connection.
Place the spray gun completely into the water bath and check all sealing
points with 1 bar; 0.1 MPa; 14.50 psi and 8 bar; 0.8 MPa; 116 psi for leaks.
At 8 bar; 0.8 MPa; 116 psi bar, the gun must be completely sealed.
At 1 bar; 0.1 MPa; 14.50 psi, a slight leak can be tolerated: 5air bubbles
per minute.
Injection and Final Inspection
ActivityMeans
2. Trigger lever function test
– The trigger lever must be pulled as far as it will go.Manual inspection
Make sure that the trigger lever can move slightly in its rest position.
– Put the trigger lever locking device into the locking position, congure
the air product pressure, and pull the trigger lever.
Neither air nor product may leak or escape.
– Check that the trigger lever locking device is not reset by the trigger
lever when pulling in the locking position.
3. Leak test
– Connect the gun, slowly increase the product pressure in increments
using a suitable medium until the maximum pressure (250 bar, 25 MPa;
3625 psi or 160 bar, 16 MPa; 2320 psi) specied on the spring cap is
reached.
– Trigger and ush the spray gun multiple times.The 160 bar variant is
– Check the following:
- Is the product connection sealed when the gun is closed?
- Is the product valve sealed?
- Is there no product discharge at the valve rod seal?
If product leaks, tighten the sealing screw:
The sealing screw on the valve rod must be tightened.
Tighten the sealing screw with the open-end wrench if necessary.
(In doing so, it is important to make sure that the valve rod still runs
smoothly and the gun closes reliably).

– Attach the AC nozzle and air cap.Visual inspection
– Set the injection pressure to 100 bar; 10 MPa; 1450.40 psi, pull the trigger
slowly, note the switching sequence "switch on" and "switch o".
Switch on: atomizing air / shaping air on, product on
Switch o: product o, atomizing air / shaping air o
5. Flush the spray gun
– Switch o the air and product supply, open ushing valve, pull trigger
lever and ush gun or blow out with air.
Flush the gun without the valve and air cap.
In doing so, you can remove the air connection hose.
