Tip And Pressure Selection - Storch Airless EasySpray ES 300 Bedienungsanleitung

Tip and Pressure Selection

See table for recommended spray pressure for your mate-
rial. See the manufacturer recommendations on the label
of the paint pail and/or the technical notice.
Maximum tip size compatible with sprayer:
For spray application 0.019"
For use with LeOS system max. 0.021"
Selecting the correct tip size
Spray tips come in a variety of hole sizes for spraying a
range of coating substances. Your sprayer includes a tip
suitable for the majority of spraying applications. See the
tables to determine the range of available tip sizes for
the corresponding coating substance.
Tip:
• As you spray, the tip wears and enlarges. Starting with
a tip hole size smaller than the maximum will allow
you to spray within the rated flow capacity of the spra-
yer.
• Use larger tip hole sizes with thicker coatings and
smaller tip hole sizes with thinner coatings.
• Tips wear with use and need periodic replacement.
• Tip hole size controls flow rate - the amount of paint
that comes out of the gun.
Fan Width
Fan width is the size of the spray pattern, which deter-
mines the area covered with each stroke.
Tip:
• Select a fan width best suited to the surface being
sprayed.
• Wider fans allow provide better coverage on broad,
open surfaces.
• Narrower fans provide better control on small, confined
surfaces.
Understanding Tip Number
The last three digits of the tip number (i.e. 413) contain
information about the hole size and fan width on surfaces
when the gun is held at a distance of approximately 30
cm from the surface.
Multiply the first digit by 5 = approximate fan width in
cm.
413 tip features a fan width of approximately 20 - 25 cm
and a hole size of 0.013" (0.33 mm).
Original instruction
Last two digits = tip hole size in thousands of an inch.
Spray Techniques
Use a piece of scrap cardboard to practice these basic
spraying techniques before you begin spraying the surfa-
ce.
• Directly aim the spray gun at the surface at a distance
of 25-30 cm. Tilting gun to direct spray angle causes
an uneven finish.
• Flex wrist to keep gun pointed straight. Fanning the
gun causes spray application at an angle and an une-
ven finish as well as spray mist.
Correct
Triggering Gun

end of stroke. Gun must be moving when trigger is pulled
and released.
