Power consumption

The power consumed by the operation of an electric tool (see "Type").

Most modern spray guns, even performant ones, have a rather low power: for example, models with more than 1 kW are extremely rare, and in most cases, power consumption does not exceed 500 W at all. So when connecting such equipment to sockets, there are usually no problems; only single units of high performance, requiring 3.5 kW or more, have to be connected according to special rules (directly to the shield). In other cases, data on power consumption is most often not needed for normal use and may be required only for specific tasks — for example, to calculate the load on an autonomous generator.

Remote compressor

The presence of a remote compressor in the design of the spray gun.

This feature means that, firstly, the unit is equipped with its own compressor (that is, it is electrical, see "Type"), and secondly, this compressor (or pump for airless spraying) is made separately from the sprayer and is connected to it special hose. Thanks to this design, the atomizer itself is as light and compact as possible, which is especially important for large volumes of work or for delicate work that requires maximum precision and accuracy. In light of the latter, all electric airbrushes (see "View") are equipped with remote compressors, although this feature is also found in other types of spray guns — in particular, this design is mandatory for paint stations (see ibid.).

Hose length

The length of the hose supplied with the tool.

This indicator has two meanings. On the one hand, the long hose provides more freedom of movement, allowing you to work farther from the compressor; this is especially important when used with powerful, heavy compressors that are not designed to be carried around often. On the other hand, in some cases a relatively short hose is more convenient; a typical example of such a situation is the presence on the farm of a compact compressor that can be constantly carried with you.

Actually, if the compressor is initially included in the delivery set, then the manufacturer chooses the length of the hose, taking into account its features. But if the spray gun is bought without a compressor, you should pay special attention to this parameter. As for the specific length, the shortest hoses found in modern spray guns do not exceed 2 m, but this is often quite enough; a length of 2 – 5 m can be called an average, and in powerful models (mainly paint stations) you can find hoses and more than 5 m.
