Vector Solo Waterborne Applicators - Safety

Spray Area

AREA

Tells where hazards

may occur.

HAZARD

Tells what the hazard is.

SAFEGUARDS

Tells how to avoid the hazard.

Fire Hazard

Improper or inadequate oper-

ation and maintenance proce-

dures will cause a fire hazard.

Protection against inadvertent

arcing that is capable of causing

fire or explosion is lost if any

safety interlocks are disabled

during operation. Frequent pow-

er supply shutdown indicates a

problem in the system requiring

correction.

Fire extinguishing equipment must be present in

the spray area and tested periodically.

Spray areas must be kept clean to prevent the

accumulation of combustible residues.

Smoking must never be allowed in the spray area.

The high voltage supplied to the atomizer must be

turned off prior to cleaning, flushing or maintenance.

When using solvents for cleaning:

Those used for equipment flushing should have

flash points equal to or higher than those of the

coating material.

Those solvents used for cleaning must have a

flash point at minimum of 5°C (9°F) greater than

the ambient temperature. It is the end users re-

sponsibility to insure this condition is met.

Spray booth ventilation must be kept at the rates

required by local and/or country codes. In addition,

ventilation must be maintained during cleaning op-

erations using flammable or combustible solvents.

Electrostatic arcing must be prevented.

Test only in areas free of combustible material.

Testing may require high voltage to be on, but only

as instructed.

Non-factory replacement parts or unauthorized

equipment modifications may cause fire or injury.

If used, the key switch bypass is intended for use

only during setup operations. Production should

never be done with safety interlocks disabled.

The paint process and equipment should be set

up and operated in accordance with local and/or

country safety codes.
