OPERATING MANUAL
2.5 PROCESSIBLE WORKING MATERIALS
Lacquers containing solvents of explosion class II A can be processed with the
GM 5000EAC spray gun.
The spray gun basic version is suitable for processing sprayed substances with an
electrical resistance of > 150 kΩ (according to the WAGNER scale).
Equipped with a special product hose for low-resistance sprayed substances (available
as an accessory), you can also successfully process sprayed substances with an
electrical resistance > 50 kΩ (according to the WAGNER scale).
The application e ectiveness is always dependant on the composition of the product
being used, e.g., pigments or resin.
Conversion of Paint Resistance
There are paint resistance measuring devices available on the market that do not directly
measure the speci c paint resistance.
Multiplying the result of the measurement with the device-speci c cell constant (K), we
obtain the speci c resistance value of the product.
Example:
With WAGNER's paint resistance measuring device the cell constant is K =123.
Measured value according to the WAGNER scale
Speci c resistance (RS)
Note:
Using sprayed substances with too low an electrical resistance, the application of
electrostatics does not show any e ect, i.e. there is no "paint wrap around" on the object
to be sprayed.
The suitability of the spray product with regard to the charging ability can be read from the
actual values for high-voltage (kV) and for the spray current (µA) shown in the illuminated
displays either on the VM 5000 control unit or on the spray gun.
High kV value, low µA value= ok
Low kV value, high µA value= excessive conductivity of the paint
No wrap-around
Please contact your local WAGNER dealer and the lacquer manufacturer if you encounter
application problems.

EDITION 05/2015ORDER NUMBER DOC2319150
OPERATING MANUAL
4.2.2 GROUNDING THE DEVICE
Friction, owing liquids and air or electrostatic coating processes create charges. Flames or
sparks can form during discharge. Grounding prevents electrostatic charging.
Ensure that the device is grounded. See chapter "Grounding".
Ground the work pieces to be coated.
Ensure that all persons inside the working area are grounded, e.g., that they are wearing
static dissipative shoes.
Wear static dissipative gloves when spraying. The grounding takes place via the spray
gun handle.
The spray substance supply (spray substance tank, pump, etc.) must be grounded.
4.2.3 PRODUCT HOSES
Ensure that the hose material is chemically resistant to the sprayed products and the
ushing agents used.
Ensure that the product hose is suitable for the pressure generated.
Ensure that the following information can be seen on the high-pressure hose:
- Manufacturer
- Permissible operating pressure
- Date of manufacture
Make sure that the hoses are laid only in suitable places. Hoses should not be laid in the
following places under any circumstances:
- in high-traffic areas,
- at sharp edges,
- on moving parts or
- on hot surfaces.
Ensure that the hoses are never run over by vehicles (e.g., fork lifts), or that the hoses are
never put under pressure from the outside in any other way.
Ensure that the hoses are never kinked. Observe maximum bending radii.
Make sure that the hoses are never used to pull or move the equipment.
Suction hoses may not be subjected to pressure.
Several liquids have a high expansion coe cient. In some cases their volume can rise with
consequent damage to pipes, ttings, etc. and cause uid leakage.
When the pump sucks liquid from a closed tank, ensure that air or a suitable gas can
enter the tank. Thus a negative pressure is avoided. The vacuum could implode the tank
(squeeze) and can cause it to break. The tank would leak and the liquid would ow out.
The pressure created by the pump is a multiplication of the inlet air pressure.

ventilation.
Take measures for workplace safety (see Chapter 4.1.3).
When commissioning or emptying the device, please note that an explosive mixture
may temporarily exist inside the lines and components of equipment:
- depending on the coating product used,
- depending on the ushing agent (solvent) used,
explosive mixture inside the lines and items of equipment.
Only electrically conductive tanks may be used for cleaning and ushing agents.
The tanks must be grounded.
An explosive gas/air mixture forms in closed tanks.
Never spray into a closed tank when using solvents for ushing.
External cleaning
When cleaning the exterior of the device or its parts, also observe the following:
Disconnect the pneumatic supply line.
Use only moistened cloths and brushes. Never use abrasive agents or hard objects and
never spray cleaning agents with a gun. Cleaning the device must not damage it in any
way.
Ensure that no electrical component is cleaned with nor even immersed into solvent.
Which cleaning agent is used to clean the spray gun depends on which parts of the
spray gun have to be cleaned and which product has to be removed. When cleaning the
spray gun, only use non-polar cleaning agents to prevent conductive residues on the
surface of the spray gun. Should it however, be necessary to use a polar cleaning agent,
all residues of this cleaning agent have to be removed by using a non-conductive and
non-polar cleaning agent, once the cleaning is nished.

OPERATING MANUAL
DANGER
Explosive powder/air mixes!
Danger to life and equipment damage.
Before starting cleaning, rinsing, or other manual work, the
high-voltage must be shut down and locked to prevent it from
being switched back on!
The spray gun must be separated from the high-voltage supply
before any cleaning work is started!
Only electrically conductive tanks may be used for cleaning and
ushing agents. Ground the tank.
Which cleaning agent is used to clean the spray gun depends
on which parts of the spray gun have to be cleaned and which
product has to be removed. When cleaning the spray gun, only
use non-polar cleaning agents to prevent conductive residues
on the surface of the spray gun. Should it however, be necessary
to use a polar cleaning agent, all residues of this cleaning agent
have to be removed by using a non-conductive and non-polar
cleaning agent, once the cleaning is nished.
Preference should be given to non- ammable cleaning and
ushing agents.
Only cleaning and ushing agents of explosion class IIA may be
used (maximum ignition energy 0.24 mJ).
The cleaning and ushing agent's ash point must be at least
15K above the ambient temperature.
Ensure that no electric component is cleaned with or immersed
into solvent.

After all repairs, the device 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 sta .
11.1 CHECKING THE HIGHVOLTAGE
Necessary test equipment:
VM 500 or VM 5000 control unit and HV200 high-voltage tester.
High-voltage measurement on spraying gun.
Connect gun cable to control unit. Take the spray gun in your hand and hold it in open
space. Switch on control unit and actuate trigger guard.
The high-voltage should be 60 to 65 kV in dry ambient air. The value can be checked with
the display on the control unit (VM 5000).
Note:
The gun must be clean and dry and must not have any paint or cleaning agent residues.
In the case of ambient air with a high air humidity, the measured value can reduce
to 50 to 55 kV.
High-voltage measurement with high-voltage tester
Place the ball of the high-voltage tester on the gun electrode and turn on the high-voltage.
The measured value should be 70 to 80 kV.
Notes:
- When measuring the high-voltage the gun and the measuring device should be held at
arms length as far from the body as possible.
- There should be no chargeable objects within a radius of 1 m; 3.28 ft of the place where
the measurements are taken.
- The placing of the measuring ball of the high-voltage measuring device reduces the
spraying of the high-voltage electrode. As a result the high-voltage value increases
compared to the spraying in the free space.

15.2 WARRANTY CLAIM
Full warranty is provided for this device:
We will at our discretion repair or replace free of charge all parts which within 24 months
in single-shift, 12 months in 2-shift or 6 months in 3-shift operation from date of receipt by
the purchaser are found to be wholly or substantially unusable due to causes prior to the
sale, in particular faulty design, defective materials or poor workmanship.
The type of warranty provided is such that the device or individual components of the
device are either replaced or repaired as we see t. The resulting costs, in particular
shipping charges, road tolls, labour and material costs will be borne by us except where
these costs are increased due to the subsequent shipment of the device to a location other
than the address of the purchaser.
We do not provide warranty for damage that has been caused or contributed to for the
following reasons:
Unsuitable or improper use, faulty assembly or commissioning by the purchaser or a
third party, normal wear, negligent handling, defective maintenance, unsuitable coating
products, substitute products and the in uence of chemical, electrochemical or electrical
agents, except when the damage is attributable to us.
Abrasive coating products such as red lead, emulsions, glazes, liquid abrasives, zinc dust
paints and so forth reduce the service life of valves, packings, spray guns, nozzles, cylinders,
pistons etc. Signs of wear traced back to these products are not covered by this warranty.
Components that have not been manufactured by WAGNER are subject to the original
warranty of the manufacturer.
Replacement of a component does not extend the period of warranty of the device.
The device should be inspected immediately upon receipt. To avoid losing the warranty,
we or the supplier company are to be informed in writing about obvious faults within
14days upon receipt of the device.
We reserve the right to have the warranty compliance met by a contracting company.
The services provided by this warranty are dependent on evidence being provided in the
form of an invoice or delivery note. If the examination discovers that no warranty claim
exists, the costs of repairs are charged to the purchaser.
It is clearly stipulated that this warranty claim does not represent any constraint on statutory
regulations or regulations agreed to contractually in our general terms and conditions.
