Turbodisk 2 - Safety

Spray Area / High
Voltage Equipment
There is a high voltage device that
can induce an electrical charge
on ungrounded objects which
is capable of igniting coating
materials.
Inadequate grounding will cause
a spark hazard. A spark can ignite
many coating materials and cause
a fire or explosion.
Parts being sprayed must be supported on conveyors
or hangers and be grounded. The resistance between
the part and ground must not exceed 1 megohm.
All electrically conductive objects in the spray area, with
the exception of those objects required by the process
to be at high voltage, must be grounded.
Any person working in the spray area must be
grounded.
Unless specifically approved for use in hazardous
locations, the power supply and other electrical control
equipment must not be used in Class 1, Division 1 or
2 locations.
Personnel Safety /
Mechanical Hazards
The disk atomizer can rotate at
speeds up to 40,000 RPM. At these
speeds, the edge of the applicator
can easily cut into skin. Loose
articles can also be caught by the
rotating disk.
Personnel must stay clear of the disk whenever it is
rotating.
Before touching the disk, the turbine air must be shut
off.
If the disk has been rotating, allow at least three minutes
for it to come to a complete stop before touching it.
