Operational Description

The TEKNA spraygun is a lightweight professional gun designed to handle both water-based and solvent-
Pro Lite
based coating materials. Both HVLP and high efficiency models are available.
High volume, low pressure (HVLP) models are designed to reduce overspray and provide maximum transfer
efficiency by limiting air cap pressure to 0.7 bar (10 psi) (complies with rules issued by SCAQMD and other air
quality authorities).
HVLP models will produce approximately 0.7 bar (10 psi) air cap pressure at 1.2 bar (17 psi) gun inlet pressure
with the trigger pulled. HVLP air cap #HV40 is designed for optimum basecoat and clear coat applications. An
air cap test kit is available (see Accessories) which can be utilized to set the exact air cap pressure.
High efficiency models use air cap #TE20 or #TE40. These models are designed to provide optimum
atomization of virtually all waterborne or solvent-based common coating materials at increased application
rates while maintaining very high transfer efficiency. High efficiency models, when tested under recommended
conditions with automotive refinishing materials, have been found to exceed 65% transfer efficiency.
IMPORTANT: These guns are not designed for use with highly corrosive and/or abrasive materials and if
used with such materials it must be expected that the need for cleaning and/or replacement of parts will be
increased. If there is any doubt regarding the suitability of a specific material, contact your TEKNA Distributor or
TEKNA direct.
NOTE: This gun is not to be used with halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or cleaning agents such as
1,1,1,-Trichloroethane or methylene chloride. These solvents can react with the aluminium components
used in this gun and cup. The reaction can become violent and lead to an equipment explosion.
