1. The articles being coated MUST MUST MUST MUST MUST be grounded
at all times.
2. All components of the applicator system MUST MUST MUST MUST MUST
be grounded at all times.
3. All contact points MUST MUST MUST MUST MUST be free of any
accumulation of non-conductive residue.
4. All electrically conductive objects, especially
solvent containers, within the spray area MUST
MUST MUST MUST MUST
be either removed or grounded.
Any tool, if used improperly, can be dangerous.
Safety is ultimately the responsibility of those using
a tool. In like manner, safe operation of
electrostatic coating processes is the
responsibility of those who use such processes
and those who operate electrostatic coating
equipment. It is most important that equipment
operators and supervisory personnel understand
the requirements for safe operations.
Additional cards summarizing these safety
requirements are available from ITW Ransburg
on request. These cards should be posted in the
spraying area so that they can be readily referred
to and serve as a reminder to personnel that area
of responsibility. Additional copies of “Cleaning
Safety Requirements” are available upon request.
Each user should examine his own coating
operation, develop his own safety program and
ensure that his workers follow correct procedures.
ITW Ransburg hopes that the information it
provides is helpful to the user in establishing such
a program.
In addition to the available cards, labels, brochures,
and service manuals, the user should consult
other standards and recognized safety authorities.
Local codes and authorities also have standards
to be followed in the operation of your spray
equipment. Your insurance carrier will be helpful
in answering questions that arise in your
development of spray coating procedures.
All personnel MUST read and understand the
