Special Features of Pressure Tanks

(1) Special Features of Pressure Tanks

Dual Regulation. Air pressure and atomizing pressure individually

controlled by precision regulators.

Three-way slide valve permits rapid refilling and color change

without readjusting paint regulator.

Tank heads are of heat treated aluminum alloy which meets

ASME specifications for 110 PSI working pressure.

Filter

prevents

A i r Filter. Each head is supplied with an air filter.

particles from damaging finish.

Head easily positioned on tank. Dual concentric ridges on edge of

head permits it to be placed on tank in almost any position.

Control Head

control head is made of a heat treated aluminum

The lightweight

alloy. It has the tensile strength of mild steel and is indestructible. The

head is held on the tank by means of forged C clamps and wing screws.

The wing screws are easily positioned on the control head between

continuous concentric grooves around the upper edge. Control assembly

consists of two diaphragm regulating valves (one for regulating the spraying

pressure and one for control of pressure in container), two air gauges,

three-way slide valve

shut-off valve, safety valve, air filter and

which shuts off air and releases pressure in container in one simple

operation.

Air Motored Agitator

Agitator is powered by an explosion-proof air motor. The motor is operated

directly from the main air line on the control head. A needle valve is

provided for controlling RPM to provide continuous agitation.

(2) Operation

Adjust right hand regulator (air regulator-pressure on fluid) to

apply

pressure to container. This is the first regulation of the flow of paint.
