and leveled by appropriate fastening elements.

4 Functional Description

4.1 Function

The FSP-01 Fine-Spray Pistol is designed and constructed for finest application of thin materials, e.g. re­lease agents, colours or other fluids of low viscosity up to 50 bar material pressure. Depending on the air cap
used, this valve sprays in flat- or round-spray. Depending on the viscosity of the fluid, the application can be
adjusted individually via nozzle dimension, atomizing air pressure and material pressure. The supply of at­omizing air and material takes place via two hoses.

The FSP-01 Fine-Spray Pistol has been thoroughly tested before leaving the factory. No more adjustment is
necessary prior to setting up spray operation. If fluid output, however, requires to be regulated individually,
apply needle regulator (24.1) for quantity of fluid flow. To spray with a spray gun definite volume of atomising
air and a definite pressure of materials is needed. The needle will be opened by activating the trigger and the
material flows out of from the nozzle. The air pressure atomises the material and forms it to a jet. The needle
function is: Opening by trigger and closing by spring force.
