Solution

 

 

 

Poor wrap.

ES ON/OFF valve OFF (0).*

Turn ON (I).

 

 

 

 

Gun air pressure too low.

Check air pressure to gun; minimum

 

 

40 psi (0.28 MPa, 2.8 bar) needed at

 

 

gun for full voltage.

 

 

 

 

Atomizing air pressure too high.

Decrease.

 

 

 

 

Fluid velocity too high.

Decrease fluid pressure or replace

 

 

worn tip.

 

 

 

 

Incorrect distance from gun to part.

Should be 8-12 in. (200-300 mm).

 

 

 

 

Poorly grounded parts.

Resistance must be 1 megohm or

 

 

less. Clean workpiece hangers.

 

 

 

 

Faulty gun resistance.

See “Test Gun Resistance” on page

 

 

19.

 

 

 

 

Low fluid resistivity.

Check fluid resistivity. See page 15.

 

 

 

 

Fluid leaks from the fluid needle (26)

Clean the needle cavity. Replace the

 

packings and causes a short.

fluid needle. See page 31.

 

 

 

 

Faulty turbine alternator (19).

Be sure the plug is in place on the

 

 

back of the turbine alternator hous-

 

 

ing. Remove and test the turbine

 

 

alternator. See page 34.

 

 

 

 

The KV HI-LO lever is on LO.

Check the lever position; replace if

 

 

needed.

 

 

 

ES indicator or voltage/current dis-

ES ON/OFF valve OFF (0).*

play is not lit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

No power.

Repair/replace alternator turbine;

 

 

replace power supply. See page 33.

 

 

 

Voltage/current display stays red

Gun too close to part.

Should be 8-12 in. (200-300 mm).

(smart guns only).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Check fluid resistivity.

See “Check Fluid Resistivity” on

 

 

page 15.

 

 

 

 

Dirty gun.

Clean. See Operation Manual.

 

 

 

Operator gets mild shock.

Operator not grounded or is near

ungrounded object.

 

 

 

 

 

Gun not grounded.

See “Check Electrical Grounding” on

 

 

page 14 and “Test Gun Resistance”

 

 

on page 19.

 

 

 

Operator gets shock from workpiece.

Workpiece not grounded.

Resistance must be 1 megohm or

 

 

less. Clean workpiece hangers.

 

 

 

* ES indicator light is off when the gun is triggered.
