2.2.1 SAFE HANDLING OF WAGNER SPRAY UNITS
The spray jet is under pressure and can cause dangerous injuries.
Avoid injection of paint or cleaning agents:
Never point the spray gun at people.
Never reach into the spray jet.
Before all work on the unit, in the event of work interruptions and functional
faults:
– Switch off the energy/compressed air supply.
– Secure the spray gun against actuation.
– Relieve the pressure from the spray gun and unit.
– By functional faults: Identify and correct the problem, proceed as described in
chap. „Trouble shooting“.
In the event of skin injuries caused by paint or cleaning agents:
Note down the paint or cleaning agent that you have been using.
Consult a doctor immediately.
Avoid danger of injury through recoil forces:
Ensure that you have a firm footing when operating the spray gun.
Only hold the spray gun briefly in any one position.
Electrostatic charges can occur on the unit due to the electrostatic charge and the flow
speed involved in spraying.These can cause sparks and flames upon discharge.
Ensure that the unit is always earthed.
Earth the work pieces to be coated.
Ensure that all persons inside the working area are earthed, e.g. that they are wearing
antistatic shoes.
When spraying, wear antistatic gloves to earth yourself via the spray gun handle.

2.5 USE IN AN EXPLOSION HAZARD AREA
2.5.1 CORRECT USE
The electrostatic spray guns GA 2000EAC and GA 2005EAC are suitable for spraying liquid
materials, particularly coating materials, using the air atomizing method.
Coating materials containing solvents of Explosion Class IIA may be used. The spray gun
may only be used in combination with a control unit EPG 3000.
The plastic parts of the spray gun are charged electrostatically by the high-voltage field
of the spray pistol. Harmless discharges (brush discharges) are possible after contact with
plastic parts. They are completely harmless for people.
The corona discharge at the electrode end is visible during darkness at a distance of be-
tween 4 and 10 mm; 0.15 and 0.4 inches, between the spray gun and spray object.

4.1.1 WHAT KIND OF SPRAYING MATERIAL CAN BE APPLIED
➞Paints containing solvents of the explosion class II A.
➞Enamels, primers, textured paints etc., which have a specific resistance of > 150 kΩ
(according to the WAGNER or Ransburg scale).
➞The effectiveness of the spraying action is always dependant on the composition of
the paint being used, e.g. pigments or resin.
Note
With very highly conductive materials or those with a very high electrical resistance, the
electrostatic effect does not work as efficiently.The relationship between the values of the
high-voltage (kV) and the current (µA), shown on the HVM 2082, denotes the charging
capacity of a spray material.
High kV-value, low µA-value (no wrap around) = Paint with too high electric resistance.
Low kV-value, high µA-value (no wrap-around) = Paint with too low electric resistance.
In the event of application problems, contact your WAGNER branch and the paint manu-
facturer.

OPERATING MANUAL

4.4.2 FUNCTIONS OF THE GUN
Note
Operation of the spray gun in conjunction with the control unit EPG 3000 is described in
this operating manual.
➞ The high voltage at the spray gun GA 2000EAC or GA 2005EAC is activated when the
control unit EPG 3000 is switched on.
➞ The control piston integrated on the valve rod in housing (B) of the spray gun
GA 2000EAC or GA 2005EAC is subjected to pressure at the same time and open the
air valve for the atomizing air.
➞ Paint valve in the head piece (E) is opened via valve rod movement after the valve for
the atomizing air is opened.
➞ The spray jet width is adjusted via the air control knob on the control unit EPG 3000
or via the fan air regulation (D1) on the spray gun GA 2000EA in the case of flat jet
spraying.
➞ The high voltage at the spray gun can be adjusted at the voltage regulator in the
control unit EPG 3000 and can be adapted to the paint or to the spraying object.
➞ Securing the gun:
1. Switch off the mains at the EPG 3000
2. Switch off the air supply at the EPG 3000
3. Relieve the pressure on the spray gun and the unit.

4.5 AIR ATOMIZING SPRAY PROCESS
4.5.1 ROUND JET SPRAY PROCESS
In the AirCoat process, high pressure of 3-15 MPa;30-150 bar; 435-2176 psi is used to atom-
ize the material.The AirCoat air at 0-0.25 MPa; 0-2.5 bar; 0-36 psi produces a soft jet, which
largely eliminates the problem of overlapping boundaries. The spray jet can be adjusted
by turning the nozzle nut.

4.5.3 ELECTROSTATIC EFFECT
The spray gun produces an electrostatic field by means of the high voltage electrode.As a
result,the particles of paint, which have been atomized by the spray gun, are carried to the
earthed object by kinetic and electrostatic energy where they adhere, finely distributed, to
the object being sprayed.
Advantages of electrostatics:
•
Very efficient spraying
•
Little over spray
•
Coating of entire circumferences due to an electrostatic field
•
Less working time

4.5.2 AIRCOAT ATOMIZING FLAT JET SPRAY PROCESS
In the Brillant AirCoat process, high pressure of 3-15 MPa; 30-150 bar; 435-2176 psi is used
to atomize the material. The AirCoat air at 0.05-0.25 MPa; 0.5-2.5 bar; 7-36 psi produces a
soft jet, which largely eliminates the problem of overlapping boundaries. There is a pos-
sibility to reduce the jet by form air.

● High- viscosity paints can easily be applied
● High endurance of Brillant- jet-nozzles
● Up to 20% less air consumption.
● Change in width the jet.
