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.

Rated pressure

Nominal air pressure in the spray gun.

The general meaning of this parameter depends on the type of instrument (see above). So, in pneumatic models, nominal pressure data is required for connection to an external compressor. It is this pressure that this compressor must create at the inlet to the atomizer; too low values will lead to a decrease in efficiency, too high are fraught with breakdowns and even accidents with injury to others.

In turn, for electric models, the nominal pressure is the air pressure created by the unit's own compressor; the complete atomizer was originally designed for the same pressure. So in this case, this parameter is more of a reference than practically significant; it may be useful only for connecting replacement nozzles to the compressor (or vice versa, for using an existing nozzle with a third-party compressor).

As for specific pressure values, they are primarily determined by the spray system (see below). The diversity here is quite high: the most modest units give out less than 2 bar, 2-5 bar compressors are quite popular , 5-10 bar models are relatively rare, and some powerful performance solutions provide a pressure of 100 bar or more.

Paint consumption

Consumption of paint or other material (for example, mortar for plaster) when the spray gun is operating in normal mode.

The higher the flow rate, the more material the tool can apply per unit of time, the better it is suitable for processing large areas and for applying thick coatings. On the other hand, not all types of work require high productivity, and sometimes relatively low consumption is optimal. Detailed recommendations on this subject for different situations can be found in special sources.

Pressure gauge

The spray gun has a built-in pressure gauge — a device for measuring pressure.

Such equipment is found in two types of spray guns: pneumatic sprayers (see "Type") and paint stations (see "View"). In the first case, the pressure gauge is installed on the atomizer itself; it allows you to control the pressure supplied to the tool from an external compressor. In turn, in painting stations, a pressure gauge is placed on the compressor and is responsible for measuring the air pressure supplied to external sprayers; this is especially useful when using third-party guns, whose characteristics (including operating pressure) may differ markedly from those of the spray station's complete sprayers.
