in electrostatic applications include:
• True dual purge capability. Spray one color while
cleaning the other paint line with no loss of tip voltage.
• Assembly components made of durable engineered
resin material for optimum mechanical strength and
solvent resistance.
• Heavy duty design ensures excellent service life
even when subjected to the quick motions of robotic
applications.
• Improved long life turbine motor, utilizing highly resilient
graphite bearing technology, is capable of speeds up
to 100 krpm. (See Specifications in the Introduction
section of this manual for bell cup speed ratings.)
• Serrated and non-serrated, coated and non-coated
bell cups are available for application flexibility and
color match. All bell cups are made using Titanium.
• Aerodynamic design for ease of cleaning external
surfaces.
• 60° angled body provides more maneuverability and
facilitates robotic programming.
• An extended length robot adapter is available. This
option gives greater flexibility and extended tubing life.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Bell Cup Assembly
Bell cups are made of high strength Titanium. Serrated and
non-serrated bell cups are offered in 30 mm, 65 mm, and
81 mm sizes. All cups are offered with or without a coating
for longer life expectancy. See ordering matrix for exact
size and material combination availability.
RMA-660 Robot Mounted Rotary Atomizer – Direct Charge.
The Ransburg MicroPak 2e High Voltage Controller uses a
combination of proven high voltage generation technology
including microprocessor-based control with diagnostic and
communication functions. A variable voltage output is used to
supply a cascade that amplifies the voltage to a high value.
It also uses both current and voltage feedback information
to maintain the desired set point. The processor circuitry
provides the maximum in applicator transfer efficiency, while
maintaining the maximum safety.
The MicroPak 2e requires an AC input voltage of 90-264
VAC via a proper line cord that is supplied with the unit.
The RMA-660 is backwards compatible with the original
MicroPak Controller (LECU5004) in existing installations.
Air Bearing Turbine Assembly
The air bearing turbine assembly with bell cup is mounted
to the air manifold assembly with a turbine retaining ring.
Air Manifold Assembly
The atomizer extension is angled at 60˚ for robot
applications. The fluid feed tube and fiber optic turbine
speed emitter are threaded into the front of the manifold.
The turbine, fluid, and air manifolds are separated from the
bell plate assembly by five support rods. Nested between
the manifolds and the bell plate is the high voltage cascade.
Bell Plate Assembly
The bell plate assembly is designed to be at ground
potential when mounted to the robot plate component
within the tubing bundle assembly. The air and fluid ports
are compactly oriented for use in robotic applications.
The air supplies are ported through the five support rods
directly to the air manifold assembly. On the exterior side
of the bell plate, the ports are provided with O-ring seals
so that the atomizer can be quickly mated and secured to
the robot plate.
Robot Plate
The robot plate is a component of the tubing bundle
assembly and intended to be permanently mounted to the
robot. A wrist adapter is also available, which matches
the robot’s mounting configuration. The incoming air lines,
fluid lines, low voltage cable, and fiber optic cable are
connected to the fittings provided at the robot plate. The
bell plate of the atomizer assembly is secured to the robot
plate with a threaded retaining ring.
Valve Manifold
This manifold can be configured for either single or dual
purge application. The dual purge can allow two colors to
be loaded at one time.

Although this turbine assembly is capable of operating at continuous speeds up to 100 krpm, nearly all high quality finishes can be
achieved within our recommended operating range of 20 to 70 krpm, based on experience with a wide variety of materials and various
markets. Operating above this range is for highly specialized applications, and may reduce efficiency and equipment life. Contact your
Binks representative for additional information as required.

INSTALLATION
AIR FILTER INSTALLATION
(GENERAL GUIDELINES)
The following air filter installation guidelines are essential
for optimum performance:
1. Use 25 mm OD (1-Inch OD) minimum inbound main
air line.
2. Use only recommended pre-filters and bearing air
filters as shown in Air filtration Requirements chart in
the Installation section. Additional system air filtration
(i.e., refrigerated air dryer) may also be used if desired.
3. Mount all the air filters as close as possible to the
RMA-660 applicator. (DO NOT mount further than 9
meters (30-feet) away.)
4. DO NOT use tape, pipe dope, or other thread sealant
downstream of the bearing air filter. Loose flakes of
tape or other sealant can break loose and plug the
very fine air holes in the turbine air bearings.
5. Air heaters are highly recommended for use in the
system to minimize the effect of excessively humid
conditions and maintain turbine load capabilities. If
the heated air will exceed 48.9°C (120°F), the heater
must be located after all filters to prevent damage to
the filter media.
With the exception of fluid, dump, and bearing air, all other
pilot and air supply lines should be bulk-headed and their
diameters increased one size. For example: Turbine air
should be increased to 12 mm OD from bulkhead plate to
the volume booster or heater outlet.

NOTICE
� We recommend that ground connections to earth
ground be 19 mm (3/4) insulated copper braided
wire. Grounds between assemblies within a machine
should be run to a central point within the machine
using #18 insulated stranded copper wire minimum. All
connections should be mechanically sound and have
less than 1 megohms of resistance between assemblies
and the common point. The resistance between the
central point and earth ground should be less than 1
megohms as well.
EQUIPMENT GROUNDING /
SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
In electrostatic coating systems, the flow of high voltage
power from the power supply to the atomizer is insulated
from ground and isolated from all of the atomizer’s other
functions.When the voltage reaches the atomizer, it is
transferred to the coating material where, by introducing a
negative charge, it causes the atomized fluid to seek the
nearest positive ground. In a properly constructed and
operated system, that ground will be the target object.
The directed conduction of the electric charge, through its
array of wires, cables, and equipment, is accompanied by
a variety of stray electrical charges passing through the
air by various means such as: air ionization, charged
particles in the air and radiated energy. Such charges
may be attracted to any conductive material in the spray
area. If the conductive material does not provide a safe
drain to these earth grounds, which will allow the charge to
dissipate as fast as it accumulates, it may store the charge.
When its these earth grounds, storage limit is reached, or
when it is breached by external circumstances (such as
the approach of a grounded object or person, or one at
lower potential), it may discharge its stored charge to the
nearest ground. If there is no safe path to ground (such as
a ground wire or braided cable) it may discharge through
the air as a spark. A spark may ignite the flammable
atmosphere of a spray area. The hazard area extends
from the point of origin up to as much as a twenty-foot
radius. (See the NFPA-33, EN 16985 for definition and
limitations of a hazard area.)
It is a simple, but vital matter to be sure that all conductive
objects within the spray zoned area are grounded with
resistance less than 1 megohm (reference NFPA-33,
EN 50176). All cabinets, housing, bases, supports, and
stands, which are not by design, insulated from ground,
must be connected directly and INDIVIDUALLY to earth
ground. Resting on a concrete floor or being attached
to a building column is not considered to be sufficient
ground.
In order to provide the best ground connection possible,
always attach a ground wire or insulated braided cable
to the terminal indicated by the ground symbol and then
to a proven true earth ground. Always check ground
connections for integrity. Some items, such as rotators
and paint stands, may be supported on an insulator, but
all components of the system up to the insulator MUST be
grounded.
Where items are mounted directly on structural components
such as building columns, the ground connection MUST
still be made. In many cases the structural component may
be painted or coated with an insulating material and in all
cases, the equipment will provide the necessary connection
at one end, but the user must be sure that the other end
is secured to true earth ground. This may be achieved by
the use of a standard ground clamp (properly secured),
by brazing or by piercing the structural component enough
to assure connection. All ground connections should be
made to the most conductive metallic structural ground
available.
To be sure that everything is properly grounded, the
following steps should be undertaken at least daily:
1. Inspect all ground wires. Look for good, firm joints at
all points of connection. Look for breaks in the ground
wire. Repair all defects IMMEDIATELY!
2. Inspect the floor or grates for excessive accumulation
of dried coating material or other residue. If there is
any, remove it!
SAFE GROUNDING IS A MATTER OF PROPER
EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AND INSTALLATION,
CORRECT OPERATION AND GOOD HOUSEKEEPING.
Daily inspection of grounding apparatus and conditions,
however, will help prevent hazards that are cause by normal
operations.
BE SURE THAT:
1. All objects in the spray area are grounded to true
earth potential.
2. Personnel in the spray area are properly grounded.

resistance of 100 MΩ for shoes and protective clothing.

AIR HEATER REQUIREMENTS
Turbine drive air expands as it moves through the turbine
wheel cavity and as it exits the turbine from the exhaust
port. This expansion will cause cooling of the exhaust air
and the surfaces it contacts. This same expansion cooling
can occur across the shaping air exit ports. This cooling
affect can cause surface temperatures to fall below the
dew point of the booth, which will result in condensation
on the interior and exterior of the atomizer, machine, and
its components. It is even possible that the temperature
of the supply air may be below the booth dew point, even
without additional expansion cooling.
Condensation is especially probable in waterborne
applications when booth temperature and relative humidity
levels are typically maintained very high. This condensation
will allow sufficient conductivity of the surfaces such that
they act as an erratic ground source potential. This can
cause damage to the equipment.
It is therefore, a requirement that turbine exhaust air
temperature be maintained above the booth dew point to
prevent condensation from forming on atomizer surfaces.
Doing so will eliminate moisture as a potential defect in
painted surfaces as well as extending equipment life.
Thus, it is recommended that air heaters be installed into
the atomizer air supply lines, i.e. turbine drive air, and
shaping air. The air heaters must be of sufficient capacity,
capable of raising the incoming air temperature ΔT, at least
22.2° C (40°F) at a flow rate of 1700 SLPM (60 SCFM) per
applicator.
The actual air heater process setting depends on applicator
fluid flow rate load, booth conditions, turbine airflow
settings, and incoming air temperature. The temperature
should be set as low as possible, sufficient to maintain the
applicator surface temperatures above the dew point in the
booth.
Example: With the incoming air temperature at 22.2°C
(72°F), and RMA-660 with 65 mm bell cup rotating
unloaded at 60 krpm has a turbine outlet temperature drop
ΔT, of approximately 15.6°C (28°F) (@ 40 krpm unloaded,
temperature drop ΔT is 7.8°C (14°F)). Referring to the
ASHRAE Psychrometric chart, the saturation temperature
range (dew point) of a spray booth maintained at 21.1-
23.9°C/65-70% RH is 16.7-20°C (70-75°F/65-70% RH
is 62-68°F). Thus it is almost certain that the surface
temperatures of the applicator will fall below the dew point
of the booth, and an air heater will be needed in this case.
To prevent condensation, a Ransburg air heater assembly
should be installed after the air filters and volume booster.
(See heater and filtration options later in this manual).
3. That the target object is properly grounded (less than
1 megohm resistance).
4. That the high voltage is off except during normal
application of material.
5. That all high voltage is off and applicators are
grounded during maintenance operations.
6. The spray area is kept free of accumulated coating
deposits.
7. All combustible liquids in the spray area (outside of
automatic delivery systems) are kept to minimum
and are kept in fire safe, grounded containers. (See
NFPA-30 and chapter 6 of NFPA-33.)
8. Proper booth ventilation is provided.
9. Personnel must thoroughly understand the equipment,
its operation and maintenance, and all safety
precautions prior to use.

CAUTION
� Air must be properly filtered to ensure extended
turbine life and to prevent contamination of the paint
finish. Air which is not adequately filtered will foul
the turbine air bearings and cause eventual turbine
failure. The correct type of filters must be used in
an RMA-670 system. The filter elements must be
replaced on a regular schedule to assure clean air.
� It is the user’s responsibility to provide clean air at
all times. Turbine failure resulting from contaminated
air will not be covered under warranty. If other filters
are incorporated in the system, the filters to be used
must have filtering capacities equal or better than
those shown in Air Filtration Requirements Charts.
� The user must ensure the bearing air supply is not
inadvertently turned off while the RMA-670 air motor is
turning. This will cause air bearing failure.
CAUTION
� Any user supplied air hoses must be rated at a
minimum working pressure of 10 bar (150 psig).
NOTICE
� Each applicator must have its own filter for bearing
air. Recommended: RPM-418 or equivalent.

TUBING BUNDLE INSTALLATION
Typically, the tubing bundle is pulled through the robot
arm from the robot wrist side. Keep the bundle taped
except for the bundle that will be inside the arm. Pull the
tubing through the wrist and arm, leaving about 250 mm
(10-inch) of tubing sticking out the front of the wrist plate.
(See Tubing Bundle Installation figure in the Installation
section.)
Fasten the cable bundle at the exit of the arm. Push the
robot spacer plate and applicator mounting plate to the
robot wrist plate, aligning the top dead center marks
of the spacer plate and robot wrist plate. Fasten using
appropriate screws. Installing the tubing bundle in this
fashion will increase tubing bundle life significantly.
BUNDLE LUBRICANT
When the tubing bundle is installed, it should be lubricated
with a generous amount of lubricant to increase the service
life of the tubes. A recommended lubricant is Shell Gadus
S2 V220 2. There are other lubricants that are available
for use. Prior to using a lubricant, ensure it is silicone
free, resists heat breakdown, and is compatible with the
materials it will contact. It is recommended that tubing
bundles be re-greased at least every six months minimum.
TURBINE EXHAUST
Do not block the turbine exhaust ports. Expanding
compressed air used to drive the turbine motor must be
able to vent freely. Damage to turbine motor may result if
restricted.

INTERLOCKS
The following system interlocks are required to prevent
equipment damage.
• Bearing air should remain on at all times and should
be shut-off by turning off the main air to the pneumatic
control cabinet.
• It should not be possible for the coating material to be
sprayed unless the turbine is spinning.
• Two interconnected bearing air ports are provided, one
for supply air and the other to be used as a return signal
for measuring bearing air pressure at the atomizer. If
bearing air falls below 552 kPa (80 psi) at the atomizer,
the turbine air should be automatically interlocked to
shut off.
• High voltage must be interlocked with the solvent valve
pilot signal to prevent solvent flow while high voltage is
energized (Direct charge only).
• Turbine air and brake air must be interlocked to
prevent both from being used simultaneously.
• Any other interlocks required by local national code or
international code (Ref. NFPA-33 and EN 50176).
• High voltage must be interlocked with the booth entry
door.
• High voltage must be interlocked through the power
unit with conveyor and booth fan air.
• The following system interlocks are required to
prevent equipment and personal damage when using
automated cap cleaners:
1. Voltage OFF
2. Bell cup rotating (20-30 KRPM)
3. Shape air ON (70 SLPM min. (2.5 SCFM))
4. Applicator centered in cleaning device
AUTOMATED CAP CLEANERS
CAUTION
� Failure to ensure turbine air while supplying
coating material will flood the turbine and may cause
permanent damage.
� When the turbine air is turned off, the turbine will
continue to operate or coast down for about two
minutes. Provisions should be made to assure that the
operator waits at least three minutes, after shutting off
the turbine air and before shutting off the main air supply.
� The bell cup must be removed when making flow
checks. If the paint is turned on when the bell is mounted
and the turbine shaft is not rotating, paint will enter the
shaft and possibly damage the air bearing. Normally,
paint will enter the shaft and possibly damage the air
bearing. Material flow checks (flow rate verification)
must be made with the bell cup off and the turbine not
rotating. Normally, pneumatic interlocks will not allow
the paint to trigger on when the turbine air is off
WARNING
� The high voltage and/or coating material must
never be turned on unless the bell cup is mounted on
the motor shaft and the turbine is rotating.
� Pneumatic input to the turbine air inlet must be
controlled to prevent the turbine from exceeding the
maximum rated speed of 100 krpm for the 30 mm and 65
mm bell cup and 55 krpm for the 81 mm bell cup. (See
Specifications in the Introduction section.)
� High voltage must never be turned on while
cleaning solvent is being sprayed either through the
applicator supply or the cup wash line. High voltage
and both solvent triggers must be interlocked (direct
charge only).
� High voltage must be turned off during cleaning in
an automated cap cleaning device.
� NEVER SPRAY SOLVENT WITH HIGH VOLTAGE ON.

WARNING
� Operators must be fully trained in safe operation
of electrostatic equipment. Operators must read all
instructions and safety precautions prior to using this
equipment (see NFPA 33 and EN50176).

� DANGER OF SHOCK AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY
CAN OCCUR. PROPER GROUNDING PROCEDURES
MUST BE FOLLOWED. PERSONNEL MUST NEVER
WORK AROUND THE TURBINE WHEN THE TURBINE IS
SPINNING OR WHEN HIGH VOLTAGE IS TURNED ON.
OPERATION
As with any spray finishing system, operation of the RMA-
660 involves properly setting the operating parameters
to obtain the best finish quality for the coating material
being sprayed, while maintaining correct operation and
reliability of the equipment used. Adjustments to operating
parameters, which cover spraying, cleaning, and on/off
control, include:
• Coating materials
• Fluid flow rate control
• Fluid valve control
• Turbine speed
• Bearing air adjustment
• Shaping air
• Brake air
• Electrostatic voltage
• Target distance
FLUID FLOW RATE CONTROL
Externally mounted fluid regulators or gear pumps are
typically used to control fluid flow. Paint is supplied to the
RMA-660 by way of the tubing bundle through the robot
arm.
The atomizer assembly is equipped with micro valves
which are pneumatically operated to direct the flow of
paint to either the feed tube or dump line and to supply an
intermittent flow of solvent to clean the interior and exterior
of the bell cup.
The feed tube has several sized removable tips available
from 0.7 mm - 1.6 mm (.027-inch - .062-inch). The viscosity
and volume of the coating material being sprayed determine
the correct size of feed tube tip for each installation.
(Reference Fluid Tip Flow Rate chart in the Introduction
section.)
Fluid Flow Rate Check
In the test mode, the flow rate can be measured by
removing the bell cup from the atomizer, turning the fluid
flow on, and capturing the material in a graduated beaker
or measuring cup for a fixed period of time (shaping air,
high voltage, and turbine air must be off).
(See Circuit Diagram in the Introduction section.) The
fluid valves in the RMA-660 are actuated by an air signal.
The air pressure must be greater than 483 kPa (70 psi) to
ensure proper actuation of the valve. Applying air to the
valve actuator turns on the fluid or air for that valve.
The paint trigger valve controls the paint flow to the bell.
When actuated, paint flows through the valve to the fluid
tube, and into the rear of the bell cup. The bell cup must
be spinning at least 20 krpm when fluid is turned on to
enable the fluid to flow through the bell paint passage and
be atomized.
The dump valve controls the paint flow through the dump
line. When actuated, paint flow is directed to the dump
return line. This provides a method of rapidly removing
paint from the incoming line for cleaning and/or color
change. Normally, the dump valve is not actuated at
the same time as the paint trigger valve since the trigger
valve is intended to cause the fluid to flow to the bell at the
prescribed input pressure.
The solvent valve controls the flow of cup wash solvent.
When actuated, solvent flows through a separate fluid
tube passage and into the bell cup. This provides cleaning
of the inside of the bell cup. The outside of the cup is
simultaneously cleaned by flow through the cup wash line
and out of the fluid tip. The solvent valve should never
be triggered at the same time as the paint trigger valve

WARNING
� High voltage must be interlocked with the
solvent valve to prevent solvent spraying while
high voltage is on.
WARNING
� NEVER PERFORM THE INTERIOR/EXTERIOR
CUP CLEAN PROCESS WITH HIGH VOLTAGE ON.
WARNING
� DO NOT exceed the maximum rated operating
speed and turbine inlet pressure. Excessive speed
may cause air turbine damage or damage to the bell.
NOTICE
� The bell rotational speed determines the quality of
atomization and can be varied for various paint flow
rates and paint formulations. For optimum transfer
efficiency and spray pattern control, the bell rotational
speed should be set at the minimum required to achieve
proper atomization. EXCESSIVE SPEED REDUCES
TRANSFER EFFICIENCY!
TURBINE SPEED
Turbine speed is determined by the input air pressure/flow
at the rear of the atomizer.
Turbine speed is intended to be closed loop controlled using
the fiber optic speed transmitter, located on the turbine
manifold. A speed input to a remote speed controller, such
as the MicroPak 2e is required.
DUAL PURGE SPRAYING
The RMA-660 has dual purge capability. This means
the applicator can continue to spray paint, at voltage,
while side B or Paint 2 is being flushed or cleaned. To
operate in the dual purge mode, two (2) separate color
valve systems must be installed.
BEARING AIR ADJUSTMENT
The nominal bearing air pressure is 620 kPa (90 psi),
measured at the rear of the atomizer. Minimum pressure is
552 kPa (80 psi) and maximum pressure is 690 kPa (100
psi). The turbine should never be operated with less than
552 kPa (80 psi) bearing air pressure. If running speeds at
100 krpm, bearing air minimum must be 620 kPa (90 psi)
maximum 690 kPa (100 psi).
Bearing air must be present when turning the turbine on.
Bearing air must remain on when the turbine air is turned
off until the turbine stops spinning. Never turn off bearing
air to cause the turbine to stop spinning. If connected,
brake air can be used to slow the turbine.
The RMA-660 is equipped with a bearing air return line
to monitor bearing air pressure at the turbine manifold.
When connected to the remote MicroPak 2e, operation of
the turbine will automatically be shut down whenever the
bearing air pressure falls below 552 kPa (80 psi).
to prevent solvent from flowing backward into the paint
line. The bell cup must be spinning at least 20 krpm when
the solvent value is triggered to enable proper cup wash
function.
To color change the applicator, a solvent air chop should
be provided through the main paint line to minimize color
change time and solvent usage (see Typical Installation
RMA-660 in the Installation section).
CAUTION
� The normal fluid flow range is 25-1000 cc/min. During
a color change or when flushing the system, high flow
rates may be required. However, the maximum flow
rate through the bell cup must not exceed the maximum
allowed for the bell cup being used (see specifications
section at the front of this manual), to avoid solvent or
paint from flooding into the internal portion of the air
bearing motor assembly or front shroud.
CAUTION
� Bearing air MUST be ON and supplied at a
minimum of 552 kPa (80 psig) whenever the turbine is
operated. If not, severe bearing damage will occur. It
is recommended that bearing air be left turned on at
all times, except during maintenance or disassembly.
� Bearing damage (and subsequent turbine failure)
caused by running the turbine without bearing air WILL
NOT be covered under the Binks warranty.

GENERAL OPERATING
SEQUENCE
TARGET DISTANCE
The distance between the RMA-660 atomizer and the
target will affect the finish quality and efficiency. Closer
distances give a smaller pattern, wetter finish, and greater
efficiency. Greater distance will provide a large pattern
size and drier finish. The MicroPak 2e control circuit
will enable the applicator bell to be operated to within a
few inches of the target without adjusting the voltage
setting. The recommended target distance is 152-305
mm (6-12-inches). In general, allow 25 mm (1-inch) target
distance for every 10 kV to prevent arching from the bell
cup to the target.
Normally, for painting application, the process sequence
should always be:
• Bearing air on (Always On)
• Turbine air on
• Turbine speed to application speed
• Shaping air on
• Start fluid flow off part
• Voltage on
After spraying the object, the sequence should be:
• Voltage lowered to 30-50 kV
• Fluid off
• Shaping air to setback volume
• Turbine speed to set back speed (30 krpm
recommended)
Recommended sample cup flush sequence is as follows
(voltage must be off) (internal and external cup wash):
1. Turbine speed set to 25-30 krpm.
2. Set shaping to 350-450 slpm (12-16 scfm).
3. Point atomizer at a grounded object such as a booth
grate.
4. Maintain solvent pressure of 689-1,034 kPa (100-150
psi). Maintain air push pressure at 552-689 kPa (80-100
psi).
5. Use an alternating trigger sequence of solvent/air to
create a chopping effect. Always ensure that the last
step in the sequence is an air push.
A typical sequence is .2 seconds solvent, 1.0 second
air push, 1.7 seconds solvent and 2.0 seconds final air
push. This sequence may be modified for other paints
and applications
6. It is recommended that an in-line fluid filter be installed
to ensure that no foreign debris enters the fluid tip or the
external wash nozzle.
The RMA-660 is versatile in processing the finish of a
component. It can be setup as shown in Typical Paint
Sequence figure.
Recommended sample cup purge sequence is as follows
(voltage must be off) (internal cup cleaning):
1. Turbine speed set to 25-30 krpm.
2. Increase shaping air to 350-450 slpm (12.4-15.9
SCFM).
3. Paint atomizer at booth grate or insert into bell cleaning
station.
4. Maintain solvent pressure of 689-1,034 kPa (100-150
psi). Maintain air push pressure at 552-689 kPa (80-100
psi).
NOTICE
� If paint defects occur, such as fatty edges or
picture framing, reducing the voltage should be a last
resort. To correct the problem, lead and lag trigger
adjustments should be optimized first.
� The electrostatic voltage applied to the RMA-660
will affect pattern size, transfer efficiency, wrap and
penetration into cavity areas. A setting of 30-100 kV is
appropriate for most applications.
CAUTION
� It is recommended to leave bearing air on, unless
the applicator is being serviced or removed for service.

step in the sequence is an air push.
6. A typical sequence is .3 seconds solvent, 1.7 seconds
air push, repeat 3 times. This sequence may be modified
for other paint and applications.
4. Trigger Fluid - An air signal is sent through the
PT (Paint Trigger) line of the tubing bundle. This
should occur when the target is 152-305 mm
(6-12-inches) from the applicator centerline.
(Not to be confused with target distance.)
5. Voltage Off/Setback Voltage - Immediately precedes
the trigger off. Using a setback voltage shortens the
cascade voltage ramp up time.
6. Fluid Trigger Off - This should occur when the target
is typically 0-152 mm (0-6 inches) past the applicator
centerline.
7. Shaping Air to Setback - The setback flow of air
should never be below 70 slpm (2.6 SCFM) for the
shape air.
8. Color Change Sequence - Used when color is
changed one to the other. Typical sequence is
shown in Typical Color Change Sequence figure in
the Operation section. The sequence shown is a
starting point for processing, but the final sequence
will depend on the material being sprayed and the
solvent used to purge the applicator with.

WARNING
� Electrical shock and fire hazards can exist during
maintenance. MICROPAK 2E SUPPLY MUST BE
TURNED OFF BEFORE ENTERING THE SPRAY
AREA AND PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES ON THE ATOMIZER. Spray booth
fans should remain on while cleaning with solvents.
� Ensure high voltage is off during any manual
cleaning procedure.
� Ensure that all energy sources are dissipated,
(electrical, air, paint, solvent, etc.) before removing the
applicator or performing any maintenance.
WARNING
� Never touch the atomizer bell while it is spinning.
The front edge of the bell can easily cut into human skin
or cut through gloves and other materials. Be sure the
atomizer bell has stopped spinning before attempting to
touch it. Approximate time for the bell to stop spinning
after turning off turbine drive air is three minutes.
CAUTION
� DO NOT immerse the RMA-660 turbine in
solvent or other liquids. Turbine components will be
damaged and warranty will be voided.
� Bearing air must be on during all cleaning
procedures to protect the air bearing components.
MAINTENANCE
O-RINGS
All O-rings in this atomizer are solvent proof except those
on the air bearing spindle. The O-rings on the turbine
spindle must not be soaked in solvent; if these are exposed
or soaked in solvent, they must be replaced. These
O-rings are engineered to provide a fit between the air
bearing spindle and it’s mating parts to reduce or eliminate
harmonic resonance (vibration).
Some O-rings are encapsulated. These O-rings have a
limited amount of stretch and will not return to their original
diameters if over stretched. These O-rings are subject to
being distorted more easily than rubber O-rings, so it is
important that they be sufficiently lubricated when mating
parts are installed onto them. They also will take a square
set over time and should be replaced periodically if mating
parts are removed repeatedly or if a new mating part is
installed onto them. Any O-ring that is cracked, nicked, or
distorted must be replaced.
A suitable lubricant is food grade petroleum jelly or A11545-
00 Petroleum Jell.
In addition to the previous Warning, which relates to
potential safety hazards, the following information must be
observed to prevent damage to the equipment.
CLEANING PROCEDURES
Internal Fluid Path Purge Cleaning
Cleaning the incoming paint line (from paint supply source
such as color manifold through the fluid manifold and
bell assembly): Turn off the high voltage and turn on the
color stack trigger valve for solvent supply. With the bell
spinning, open the dump valve and flush the incoming
paint line with solvent or an air/solvent chop. Make sure
the last step of the sequence is air to purge the dump
line of remaining solvent. To speed the loading of the
new paint, leave the dump line open to allow the air in
front of the paint push to escape. The length of time the
dump valve is open depends on several factors such as
viscosity, paint pressure, etc. Timing should be such that
the dump is closed as the paint reaches the trigger valve
in the atomizer. Paint in the dump line may cause high
voltage issues.
The fluid coil and fluid tube can be cleaned independently
by actuating the solvent valve in the atomizer. High
voltage must be turned off during this operation and
the bell cup must be spinning (typically 30 krpm for
cup flushing sequences).
Bell Cup Cleaning (Cup Wash) Without
Cleaning the Incoming Paint Line
Turn off the high voltage and trigger valve. With the bell
spinning at 30 krpm, turn on the cup wash solvent valve
to allow cleaning solvent to flow through the manifold
passages, through the fluid tube, and into the bell. The

CAUTION
� The maximum flow rate of 1000 cc/min. must not be
exceeded during a flush routine. Use of an in-line fluid
restrictor is recommended.
External Atomizer Surface Cleaning
• Verify that the high voltage is turned off.
• All external surfaces may be cleaned using a mild
solvent and lint free rags to hand wipe the RMA-660.
Turbine drive air must be off, but leave bearing air on.
The inner and outer shaping air (if applicable) should
have approximately 70 slpm air flow through each to
prevent the solvent from entering these passages.
• Do not spray the RMA-660 unit with a solvent applicator
used for cleaning. The cleaning fluid under pressure may
aid conductive materials to work into hard to clean areas
or may allow fluids to be forced into the turbine assembly.
• Do not reuse an atomizer bell cup that shows any
sign of damage such as nicks, heavy scratches,
dents, or excessive wear.
• For best operating conditions, the atomizer surfaces
must be dry.
• Always final wipe all parts with a non-polar solvent and
wipe dry (high flash Naphtha, etc.).
VIBRATION NOISE
If the RMA-660 is vibrating or making an unusually loud
noise, it usually means there is an imbalance situation.
The atomizer bell cup may have dried paint on it, the
bell may be physically damaged, or there may be paint
trapped between the bell cup and shaft preventing the bell
cup from properly seating. If any of these conditions exist,
they MUST be corrected. Excessive imbalance caused by
one of these conditions may result in bearing damage and
turbine failure. Warranty DOES NOT cover failure caused
by imbalanced loading conditions.
To determine if the bell is dirty or damaged, remove the bell
cup and turn the turbine ON. If the noise is eliminated, the
bell cup is the problem. If the noise continues, the turbine
may be damaged and should be inspected. Excessive
air required to achieve same speed may indicate a faulty
or contaminated turbine. DO NOT continue to operate a
noisy turbine.
will atomize the solvent, clean out the bell passages. It
is always required to blow the solvent line dry after the
cleaning operation. Typical bell speed during the cup flush
sequence is 30 krpm. Follow sequence as outlined for cup
wash in General Operating Sequence in the Operation
section.
WARNING
� NEVER wrap the applicator in plastic to keep it
clean. A surface charge may build up on the plastic
surface and discharge to the nearest grounded object.
Efficiency of the applicator will also be reduced and
damage or failure of the applicator components may
occur. WRAPPING THE APPLICATOR IN PLASTIC
WILL VOID WARRANTY
WARNING
� To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, solvents
used for exterior cleaning, including bell cleaning and
soaking, must be nonflammable (flash points higher
than 15° C (27° F) above ambient temperature). Since
electrostatic equipment is involved, these solvents
should also be non-polar. Examples of non-flammable,
non-polar solvents for cleaning are: Amyl acetate, methyl
amyl acetate, high flash naphtha, and mineral spirits.
� Do not use conductive solvents such as MEK to
clean the external surfaces of the RMA-660 without a
second cleaning with a non-polar solvent.
� When using a rag to hand wipe the RMA-660, the
turbine air should be off, but leave both the shaping
air and bearing air turned on. Ensure that rotation has
come to a complete stop.
WARNING
� If color changing or purging in an automated cleaning
device, ensure that high voltage is turned off and that
applicator is centered in the cleaning deveice opening
and that the cleaning device is at ground potential.
EN 08. MAINTENANCE
www.binks.com LN-9288-21-R3 (08/2025) 63 / 116
WARNING
� If a bell cup comes off a rotating shaft because of motor
seizing or any other reason, the Atomizer and bell cup
must be returned to Binks for inspection and evaluation to
determine if the bell can be used in operation.
NOTICE
� Turbine assemblies are field repairable after the
initial one-year warranty period. Consult a representative
for proper manuals and training before attempting any
repairs. Any attempt to repair the turbine before the one-
year warranty period has expired will void the warranty.
CAUTION
� Maximum flow rate should not exceed 1000 cc/min.
� Daily removal and soaking of the bell cup may not be
required if the bell cup is properly flushed. However, the
frequency of the feed tube and internal motor shaft in-
spection indicated below under weekly maintenance can
be done daily and later adjusted to weekly or as required
depending on the results of the inspection.
TURBINE MAINTENANCE
DO NOT attempt to rebuild the turbine. Any endeavor
to disassemble a turbine during the warranty period
will void the warranty. Contact your authorized
distributor or Binks for instructions.
GENERAL/PREVENTIVE
MAINTENANCE
Verify daily that the operating parameters have not varied
significantly from the normal. A drastic change in high
voltage, operating current, turbine air, or shaping air, can
be an early indicator of potential component failure.
A laminated poster entitled Rotary Atomizer Checklist
(AER0075-04) is included with the assembly in the Literature
Kit to be posted near the station as a handy reference.
Due to the close proximity of high voltage to ground potential,
a schedule must be developed for equipment maintenance
(cleanliness).
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Daily Maintenance (During Each Preventive
Maintenance Break)
1. Verify that high voltage is OFF and that shaping air,
bearing air, and turbine drive air are ON.
2. Open the dump valve, flushing all paint from the
supply lines and valve module.
3. Open the solvent valve, flushing all paint from the
fluid tube and through the atomizer bell assembly.
4. Re-verify that high voltage is OFF, turbine drive air is
OFF, and that the bell cup has stopped spinning. The
bearing air and shaping air should remain ON.
5. Clean all external surfaces of the applicator using a
lint-free rag dampened with solvent.
6. After cleaning, all conductive residue must be
removed using a non-conductive solvent. Since
electrostatic equipment is involved, these solvents
should also be non-polar (Naphtha).
7. Inspect bell cup for nicks, dents, heavy scratches, or
excessive wear. Replace if necessary.
8. Check bell cup tightness. Tighten to 5.6-7.9 Nm
(50-70 lbs•in) torque for Titanium bell cups.
9. Check the amount of paint build-up on the outer
protective cloth covers, if used. If excessive, replace
covers as required. If cloths are wet, find source and
replace with dry cloth covers.
WARNING
� The high voltage must be turned OFF before en-
tering the spray area and performing any maintenance
procedures. Spray booth exhaust fan(s) should re-
main ON while cleaning the equipment with solvents.
� Make sure high voltage is OFF before approaching
applicator with solvent cloth.
� DO NOT use reclaimed solvent containing
d-Limonene. This can cause damage to certain
plastic components.
� DO NOT stop bell rotation by using a rag or
gloved hand against the bell cup edge.

WARNING
� Maximum turbine speed for the 81 mm bell cup is
55 krpm.
NOTICE
� Refer to the Troubleshooting Guide in the Main-
tenance section for details on determining the causes
of low or no high voltage at the bell cup.
Weekly Maintenance (Prior to Start or End of
Production Week)
• Monitor rotational speed of all bells at the speed
control. Investigate cause if abnormal.
• Check solvent flow by opening solvent valve and
taking a beakered reading (should be within approx.
10% of target flow rate).
• Paint residue found in the shaping air holes is not
acceptable and must be removed prior to applicator
use (see Cleaning Shaping Air Holes in the
Maintenance section).
• Clean any paint on outer surface of front and rear
housing with a soft cloth dampened with solvent.
(See Warning on avoiding the use of cleaning
solvent containing d-Limonene.)
• Remove the front shroud and check for any signs of
solvent or paint leakage. Clean as required.
• Remove bell cup and soak in solvent for 1-2 hours.
Clean with a soft brush as required. Remove from
cleaning solution and blow dry before replacing.
• With bearing air off, carefully inspect the feed tube tip
and clean any paint build-up that has occurred on the
feed tube tip. Using a pen light, determine if there is
build-up of paint in the motor shaft and/or around the
paint feed tube. If so, remove the motor assembly
following the disassembly procedures and clean out
the inside diameter of the motor shaft using a tube
brush and solvent. Clean the outer surfaces of the
feed tube.
• Visually inspect for signs of fluid leaks around fluid
connections and manifold. Correct problem and clean paint
from all components, including internal portion of shroud.
• Reinstall bell cup and front shroud, replace cover on
the outer housing. (Refer to Disassembly Procedures
in the Maintenance section for definite instructions.)
• Recheck bell cup tightness. Torque to 5.6-7.9 Nm
(50-70 lbs•in) for Titanium bell cups.
BELL CUP PREVENTIVE
MAINTENANCE
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure proper maintenance
of the atomizer bell at all times. Bell cup failure due to
inadequate cleaning or handling will not be covered under
the Warranty. The DO NOT bullets (see Operator/
Maintenance Warnings in the Maintenance section)
listed are some examples of improper handling which
could adversely affect performance or personnel safety
and should not be attempted for any reason.
• Monitor high voltage and current output indicated on
the MicroPak 2e display. Investigate cause if abnormal.
• Check paint flow on all bells at minimum and maximum
specified settings by taking beakered readings.
WARNING
� In the event the bell cup comes in contact with a part,
that cup should be replaced before continuing to spray.
� DO NOT place high voltage test probe on bell
edge unless rotation is fully stopped.
� Make sure that no solvent or other contamination
is allowed to enter the motor assembly (air bearing and
outer shaft).
NOTICE
� It may be necessary to remove the bell cups for
cleaning more frequently than weekly. (See Note under
Daily Maintenance in the Maintenance section.)

Bell Cup Handling
Always verify that high voltage is turned off and the
atomizer bell has stopped spinning before performing any
type of handling maintenance.
Bell Cup Replacement
Bell cup wear is dependent on many factors such as bell
speed, flow rate, and type of coating being applied.
The bell cups shown in the photos below indicate if a bell
cup has some usable life or should be replaced. Photo 1
shows a bell cup that has some usable life. The grooves
worn around the splash plate pins are shallow. The
general appearance of the cup surface is smooth and
uninterrupted. Photo 2 shows a bell cup that needs to be
replaced, as well as the splash plate that was installed into
the cup. The grooves are deep, a visible groove exists
at the outer edge diameter of the splash plate and there
are noticeable lateral grooves extending towards the outer
edge of the cup.
Photo 1
Photo 2
Always verify that high voltage is OFF and that the atomizer
bell is spinning before performing any type of color change
or bell flush cleaning cycle.
To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, the solvents used
for exterior cleaning must have flash points above ambient
temperature. Since electrostatic equipment is involved, these
solvents should also be non-polar.
Those solvents used for general cleaning must have a flash
point at minimum of 15°C (27°F) greater than the ambient
temperature. It is the end user’s responsibility to ensure this
condition is met.
1. The atomizer bell will normally be fully cleaned during
a bell flush cycle. Flushing should be done before any
down time or break in production. A bell flush cycle
may also be required while spraying batch parts of the
same color. Verify that high voltage is off and that the
atomizer bell is spinning before flushing through the bell.
2. If there is any remaining paint build-up on any
areas of the bell after flushing, the bell cup should
be removed for hand cleaning. The bell’s leading
edge, splash plate, serration cuts, and rear of cup
are some examples of areas for special attention.
Bell Cup Soaking
3. Bell cups and splash plates can be soaked in a
heated solution for an extended amount of time in
an ultrasonic cleaner (49°C (120°F) maximum).
Ensure that bell cups do not rest or touch metal in
an ultrasonic cleaner. Bell cup damage may result.
Manual Inspection
4. Visually inspect the bell cup edge for signs of abrasion.
If the edge is excessively worn or badly chipped as the
result of a collision with a part, replace the cup immediately
5. Remove splash plate. Inspect for wear on the bell cup
where the fluid leaves the large diameter of the splash
plate. If any undercut in this area, the cup should be
replaced. Also, check the three (3) pins between the
front and rear splash plate halves. If worn, replace entire
assembly.

6. Check the center holes of the splash plate for wear.
Hold splash plate up to a light source and look straight
into the holes. If light is clearly seen, the angled holes
are worn and the splash plate must be replaced.
7. Splash plate assemblies may be soaked for an extended
period of time, to loosen dried material. Clean with a soft
bristle brush.Blow out center holes to dislodge material.
Never use any kind of pick instrument to clean these holes.
8. Soaking the bell in solvent may aid in loosening or
removing paint build-up. It is recommended that the
splash plate be removed and cleaned separately.
9. Before reinstalling the splash plate into the bell cup,
verify that the O-ring is not nicked or distorted Replace
if necessary.
10. Use a soft bristle brush dipped in solvent to remove
paint build-up from the serration cuts, paint feed holes
or slots, and external and internal surfaces of the bell.
11. A soft, l int free rag dampened with solvent
may be used to remove any paint residue from
the external and internal surfaces of the bell.
12. After removing all paint build-up or residue, rinse the
bell in clean solvent and blow dry.
13. Before reinstalling the bell on the shaft, check the mating
surfaces of the thread and taper for any paint build-up
or residue. Also, check the fluid tip, fluid tube outside
diameter, and the shaft for any further paint build-up.
These surfaces should be cleaned before installing the bell.
14. It is recommended that extra bell cups be purchased.
The cups can then be cleaned off line in an automated
cup cleaner.
15. Reinstall cups to proper torque 5.6-7.9 Nm (50-70 lbs•in)
for Titanium bell cups.
CLEANING SHAPING AIR HOLES
In order to maintain uniform pattern control, the shaping
air holes of the inner ring and the shaping air cap must be
clean and free of any blockage.
It is best to leave the shaping air supply ON during normal
production break cleaning periods. Shaping air can be
reduced to 70 slpm (2.5 scfm) during this time. This will
help stop material from entering the passage ways.
Periodically (weekly) the outer shaping air cap and the
inner shaping air ring should be removed and thoroughly
cleaned. Use of an ultrasonic cleaner would make
cleaning of hole diameters easier. Inspect all holes for
blockage. Blow holes clear with compressed air after
some time of soaking in solvent. DO NOT use any type
of pick to clear the holes. Damage may result to parts
and could affect performance of the equipment. If holes
are damaged (oversized holes, blockage, and gouges) it
must be replaced.

NOTICE
� Clean and lubricate the threads on the robot plate
before installaing the applicator.
NOTICE
� For reassembly instructions, use the reverse of
the following disassembly procedures.
� To facilitate atomizer removal from hose manifold, a
robot program should be made that purges all paints and
solvents from the RMA-660. Ideally it would then position the
bell assembly in a bell removal position where the bell cup
is pointed downward at a 30° angle. Any residual solvents
would be contained in the J-bend of the robot wrist.
� All O-rings described in the Maintenance sec-
tion of this manual should be lubricated with a food
grade petroleum jelly or with A11545 lubricant.

65 mm Bell Cup Tool - A14208-00
81 mm Bell Cup Tool - A14204-00
This tool is meant to aid in the removal of bell cups that are
abnormally tight on the spindle shaft. Typically, bell cups are
easily removed by hand with the aid of the standard bell cup
wrench (A14826-00). To prevent bell cups from becoming
difficult to remove, care should be taken to remove wet or
old dried paint from shaft and bell cup taper and threads
before bell cups are assembled to the atomizer.
Before using the bell cup removal tool, clean the exterior of
the bell cup with clean solvent and dry it. This will improve
the tool’s ability to grip the cups surface.
To install the tool, first engage the bell cup wrench (A14826-
00) into the corresponding holes in the shaping air manifold.
Once fully inserted, the tool will prevent the shaft from rotating.
Place the bell cup tool (A14208-00 (65 mm), A14204-00 (81
mm)) over the front of the bell cup and tighten the knurled
portion in a counter-clockwise direction until very tight (left
hand thread). (See Bell Cup Removal Tool figure for proper
engagement of the tool on bell cup.) With the bell cup tool still
installed, grasp the pivoting handle on the bell cup tool and
turn in a counter-clockwise direction until bell cup is loosened.
If tool rotates or slip, tighten tool further and retry.

ring and o-ring by hand. Use the spanner wrench to
tighten an additional 1/8-1/4 turn. (Lightly lubricate O-ring
with petroleum jelly.) Check centering of fluid tube. If fluid
tube is centered, the turbine is fully seated. If not, check
tightness with spanner wrench. If tube is not centered,
again remove turbine and check for causes, such as an
O-ring fell off, fiber optic not fully installed, foreign material
on seating surface, etc. Reinstall and recheck tube

Replace bell cup.
See Low or No High Voltage below.
Disassemble and clean (see

a. Paint resistivity to be 0.1 MΩ to ∞.
b. Replace coiled fluid line.
Remove solvent valve air pilot signal (high voltage
must be interlocked with the solvent valve air pilot
signal to prevent solvent flow while high voltage is
energized).
a. Remove atomizer and inspect low voltage con-
nections on both plates. Verify alignment marks
between connectors and plates and verify that
connector face is flush with plate. Verify that set
screws are secure, but not too tight, as this will
prevent the spring-loaded pins on the robot plate
from extending and making contact.
b. Faulty low voltage cable.
Verify correct orientation of air turbine so that high
voltage spring makes contact with metal pad on
turbine assembly.
To readjust settings, refer to MicroPak 2e
operating manual.
a. Clean atomizer externally with non-polar solvent.
b. Check the atomizer externally with non-polar
solvent.
c. Check for fluid leaks at quick disconnect mounting
(between bell plate and robot plate).
d. Check for internal arcing (usually indicated by
internal sparking sounds).
e. Make sure cascade low voltage connection is
properly shielded.

Refer to MicroPak 2e service manual for detailed
Troubleshooting Guide.
Optimize color change.
Verify high voltage at bell cup edge. Normally a high
voltage setting of 70-100 kV is appropriate for most
applications.
Verify that parts being coated are properly grounded
(the electrical resistance between the part and ground
must not exceed 1 megohm).
For optimum transfer efficiency and spray pattern
control, the bell rotational speed should be set at the
minimum required to achieve proper atomization of
the coating material.
Shaping air should be set at the minimum volume
required to gently direct the spray pattern toward
the part being coated. Excessive shaping air will
cause some atomized particles to blow-by the part
or bounce back onto the atomizer.
The recommended target distance is between 152-
305 mm (6-12 inches) (see Target Distance in the
Operation section of this manual).
Verify supply air pressure.
a. Verify bearing air return signal.
b. Increase bearing air supply pressure to
620.5 ± 69 kPa (90 psig ± 10 psig).
Remove brake air signal (turbine air and brake air
must be interlocked to prevent both from being used
simultaneously).

Fluid Coils (Separate Sales Parts Only)
If purchasing spare parts, they must be modified
as explained.
Fluid Coils
To ensure proper sealing and holding, the fittings require
that the ends of the fluid coils have a groove cut into them
as shown. Use groove cutter A11567-00, by sliding the
end of the tool over the tubing until it bottoms out. Hold
the tubing in one hand and the tool in the other. Make
three complete revolutions of the tool on the tubing in the
direction of the arrow stamped on the tool. To remove the
tool, hold the tube and the main body of the tool with one
hand, slide the rear portion of the tool back until it stops.
Pull out the tubing from the end of the tool. By pulling back
the rear portion of the tool, it relieves the pressure of the
cutting edge off of the tubing before sliding it out. Trim off
ends to dimensions shown. End should be cut off square.
Slide the fitting and ferrules onto the tube as shown. The
tapered ferrule must go past the newly cut grooved to
properly lock into place when installed. Install hand tight
and then 1/4-1/2 turn more with a 9/16 end wrench or flare
nut wrench.

APPENDIX A
• In this context, especially the disconnection threshold,
the overcurrent Iü and the minimum voltage Umin shall be
defined and documented with respect to operational and
local conditions.
• Ventilation must be properly interlocked with high voltage
power supply.
• Forced ventilation must be proved to be working effectively.
• The disconnection threshold Iü shall be defined and
documented with respect to operational and local conditions.
• It shall be tested if the high voltage is disconnected in case
of inadmissible increase of the operational current Ib and if
the disconnection threshold Iü is reached.
• In this context, the disconnection threshold Iü defined during
the initial test shall be checked.
• A disconnection threshold Iü giving rise to expect an
occurrence of hazardous discharges or flashover between
parts under high voltage and earthed parts of the plant in
case the safety distance drops below the permissible limit, is
not permitted.
• Validate safety circuits are performing as designed.
• Discharge energy must be less than 300 mJ prior to reaching
the parts.
• Use non-flammable cleaning agents if possible.
• Those used for equipment flushing should have flash points
equal to or higher than those of the coating material.
• Those solvents used for cleaning must have a flash point
at minimum of 15°C (27°F) greater than the ambient
temperature. It is the end users responsibility to insure this
condition is met.
TESTS OF THE STATIONARY EQUIPMENT
The tests shall be carried out for each single spraying system. The test shall be carried out by skilled persons
and include the tests according to this table and the internal notes.
Protection against ignition of
cleaning agents
Protection against too high
discharge energy
Safe disconnection of high voltage
shall be tested for voltage-controlled
and constant voltage operation
Safe disconnection of high voltage
shall be tested for voltage-controlled
and constant voltage operation
Effectivity of forced ventilation
(exhaust air systems)
The stationary equipment for
electrostatic coating with ignitable
liquid coating materials shall be
tested for occupationally safe state
Every 12
months

• On all doors and openings of the spraying area where the
hazard of contact with parts under high voltage exists the
presence of the high voltage shall be safeguarded in such
a way that the high voltage is disconnected when entrance
is gained. The interlock shall satisfy the performance level
d of EN ISO 13849-1. Other openings of the spraying area
through which parts under high voltage could be contacted
shall be locked in such a way to be only opened by keys or
tools. When using systems of types C-L and D-L an interlock
of the high voltage with all doors and openings shall be
installed to prevent an electric shock of persons.
• All conductive components of the equipment, like floor, walls,
ceilings, fences, conveyors, workpieces, containers for
coating material, reciprocators or elements of construction
etc. within the spraying area, except for parts under high
voltage for operational reasons, shall be connected to the
grounding system. Parts of the booth shall be earthed in
compliance with EN 12215.
• If an appropriate grounding of the conductive parts according
to 5.7.1 cannot be achieved, the possible discharge energy
shall not exceed 0.24 mJ.
• The resistance to earth from the suspending point of each
workpiece shall not exceed 1 MΩ. The voltage during
measurement shall be 500 V or 1000 V. The construction
of hangers shall ensure that the workpieces remain earthed
during the coating process.
Note: Since workpieces are often earthed by metallic hooks,
it is important to clean these hooks regularly or to design them
in such a way, that the built-up of insulating layers of coating
materials is prevented.
• If an appropriate grounding of the workpiece according
to 5.7.1 cannot be ensured, the dissipation of electrical
charges at the workpiece by other devices, e.g. ionizers,
is permitted. Such devices shall not exceed the permitted
discharge energy of the spraying systems, for which they
are used. Moreover, these devices shall be submitted to the
same test for admissible discharge energy as the spraying
systems they are used with. The dissipation device shall
be interlocked with the spraying system in such a way to
disconnect the high voltage and to stop coating in case of
failure of this dissipation device.

• In addition to a room-protection system, locally acting fire
extinguishing systems (installed fixedly and allocated to the
object) shall give effective protection for the hazard zone
between the outlet of coating materials and the workpiece.
It shall be proved for each individual case, if the aspects of
the locally acting fire extinguishing systems and the room-
protection system could be satisfied by one fire extinguishing
system.
• Electrostatic spraying systems shall be equipped with
locally acting automatic fire extinguishing systems which
are actuated immediately in case of fire. When the fire
extinguishing system has been activated, the high voltage
supply, the supply of coating materials and the pressurized
air shall be cut-off automatically.
EN 13478 shall be observed.
It shall be checked in each individual case, whether a present
room-protection system is also able to fulfill the function of a
locally acting automatic fire extinguishing system.
• Where conductive parts are used for the coating material
supply system, these parts shall be either bonded to earth
or connected with the high voltage supply system so that
the potential level is invariably identical with that of the
electrostatic spraying system.
• Ensure all earthed items are outside the safe use distance
of 150 mm when using the 81 mm bell cup, 100 mm when
using the 65 mm bell cup, or 50 mm when using the 30 mm
bell cup.
• In compliance with EN 12215.
