Ecco Xtatic HP6000 Operation And Maintenance Manual - Warning

<
This system cannot be used for electrostatic coating with a conductive paint such as water-soluble
one.
Check that the paint and solvent to be used are compatible with the
“materials of part of the pump
that is in contact with the fluid.
” Before using a paint or solvent with the air wrap airless electrostatic
spray gun, fully check its specifications provided by the material manufacturer.
Acids, corrosive materials and halogenated hydrocarbon-based solvents cannot be used.
If the moisture is included in the compressed air, it may result in poor coating or activation of the
warning buzzer and safety circuit. Take enough care not to include the moisture.
<
The pressurized paint in the hose has a higher possibility of danger. If the hose is leaking,
cracked, damaged, worn or incorrectly used, the paint may spout out and cause injury or damage
to the equipment
Handle the hose with care. Do not move the pump by pulling the hose or use an inappropriate paint
or solvent for the outside and inside surfaces of the pump.
If the hose is bent or pressurized by something at a point, the paint pressure is centered at that
point, possibly resulting in paint leakage.
Do not expose the hose to a temperature higher than 80°C or lower than -40°C.
Fasten the hose connector and joint before use.
Never use a damaged hose. Check the hose over its entire length for cuts, paint leakage, wear,
blisters, flaws and loose fittings.
If any of those problems is found, immediately withdraw the hose from service and replace with a
new one.
Never hold the leaking point with your hand nor temporarily close it with an item, such as a tape as
doing so may rather increase the possibility of danger.
Do not repair the leaking point with a repair joint.
If a paint leakage is found, always replace the hose with a new one.
Use a standard hose that meets our specifications.
In order to ground the whole coating machine, it is essential to ground the paint hose. The hose
can be completely grounded by correctly grounding the pump body and tightening the connector.
The paint hose to be used shall have an electric resistance not greater than 100
Ω, which is
equivalent to that provided by class D grounding.
If the maximum electric resistance is not indicated on the paint hose, consult the distributor from
which the paint hose was purchased or the hose manufacturer. Connect an ohmmeter to a proper
part of the paint hose and measure the resistance. If the resistance exceeds the permissible limit,
immediately replace the hose with a new one.
<
When inspecting or servicing the coating machine or its components, reduce the paint pressure
according to the pressure releasing procedure (on page 3) so that the pump will not accidentally be
actuated.
Do not leave the coating machine while it is running. When stopping or finishing a spraying
operation, reduce the pressure according to the pressure releasing procedure (page 3).
Do not allow children and those who do not fully understand the coating machine to get into the
working area, especially around the air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun or paint pump.
