2.1

Application

This fine-finish spray system is versatile enough to use for low-
pressure fine finish work as well as high-pressure air-assisted
spraying.
Examples of objects to be sprayed
Woodworking projects, cabinetry, fences, house / garage / shed and
other building exteriors, decks, furniture, doors, wood paneling.
2.2

Coating materials

Processible coating materials
i
Pay attention to the spray quality of the coating
materials to be processed.
No other materials should be used for spraying without Titan's
approval.
Filtering
In spite of the high-pressure filter, filtering of the coating material is
to be recommended in general.
Stir coating material before commencement of work.
i Make sure when stirring with motor-driven agitators
that no air bubbles are stirred in. Air bubbles disturb
when spraying and can, in fact, lead to interruption
of operation.
Viscosity
It is possible to work with high-viscosity coating materials with these
devices.
If highly viscous coating materials cannot be sucked up, they must be
diluted in accordance with the manufacturer's instruction.
Two-component coating material
The appropriate processing time must be adhered to exactly. Within
this time rinse through and clean the unit meticulously with the
appropriate cleaning agents.

Description of unit

3.1 Air Powered / Air Assisted process
An Airless piston pump takes in coating material by suction. The
pneumatic piston pump is powered by compressed air provided by
an outside air compressor (Air-Powered).
Cycling of the piston pump moves the material through the pump
and down the fluid hose to the spray gun. Pressed through the
tip at very high pressure, the coating material is atomized into fine
particles.
Adding air to assist the spray atomization (Air-Assisted) allows the
coating material to be sprayed at lower pressures while still achieving
an acceptable spray pattern.
This method of spraying has the advantages of the finest atomization,
cloudless operation, and a smooth, bubble-free finish. This method
also offers better transfer efficiency and gives the applicator greater
control of spray due to lower fluid pressures.

Functioning of the unit

The following section contains a brief description of the technical
construction for better understanding of the function.
TITAN AirCoat are high-pressure spraying units driven by air power
provided by an air compressor.
An air compressor connected by an air hose drives the air motor (1)
which then moves the piston up and down in the material feed pump
(2), drawing up spray material via the siphon hose (3).
The air regulator (4) controls the air pressure being allowed into
the system, and is directly proportionate to the fluid pressure being
produced.
Example: AirCoat 423 = 23:1
100 PSI reading at air gauge (5) = 2300 PSI at pump outlet
The inlet valve is opened automatically by the upwards movement
of the piston. The outlet valve is opened when the piston moves
downward.
Coating material flows under high pressure through the high-
pressure hose to the spray gun. When the coating material exits from
the tip it atomises. The atomisation can be fine-tuned by adjusting
the outgoing air regulator (6) as well as the high-pressure fluid
regulator (7).
