Safety Precautions
The Airless Spray Gun HAP 50 corresponds to state-of-the-art technology and meets with the
general requirements of EC Rules. This is documented by the attached EC Declaration of
Conformity and the CE mark.
The High Pressure Gun HAP 50 was designed according to state-of-the-art technology. The gun
was tested and operationally reliable prior to leaving our plant. The tip grip protection which is a
component of the operational safety has to be ordered separately.
If you are injected, seek emergency medical treatment immediately. Be familiar with
the name of the fluid in use. Do not delay surgical treatment !
Electrostatic Arcing must be prevented
Electrostatic charging develops at high flow rates. An adequate grounding system at the total
Airless System is securely deriving the charges. When working with flammable materials all high
pressure Airless Systems must be grounded.
Ignition Sparks / Explosion Hazard
Always use a conductive hose for Airless spraying operations. Check hose and gun for continuity.
Take an ohmmeter for weekly checks. The resistance between gun/hose (end/end) must not read
greater than 29 M
Ω
verified at depressurized hose.
Ensure that all Airless Pumps are properly grounded !
The gun is suitable for all customary and standard coating materials.
Never leave a pressurized spray gun unattended !
Only use coating materials that are compatible with Nylon hoses !
Check regularly for leaks and wear of hoses and hose connections. Never repair
hoses, always replace them !
Please pay particular attention to safety information of the material suppliers !
Always take pressure off prior to working on spray equipment !
(e.g. by means of a by-pass valve or by pulling the trigger)
