Fire, Explosion, and Electric Shock Hazard
Improper grounding, poor air ventilation, open flames, or sparks can cause a hazardous condition
and result in a fire, explosion, or electric shock.
•
Electrostatic equipment must be used only by trained, qualified personnel who understand
the requirements in this manual.

Ground the equipment, all personnel in or close to the spray area, the object being sprayed,
and all conductive objects in the spray area. See “Grounding”, page 13.
•
Check gun resistance daily. See “Test Gun Resistance” on page 19.
•
If there is any static sparking while using the equipment, stop spraying immediately. Identify
and correct the problem.
•
Provide fresh air ventilation to avoid buildup of flammable or toxic vapors. Interlock the gun
air supply to prevent operation unless ventilating fans are on. See “Ventilate the Spray

spray area.

Eliminate all ignition sources such as pilot lights, cigarettes, and static arcs from plastic drop
