83C-210-CE & 83Z-210-CE PRESSURE TANK
Small Tank - Up To 9.5 litres (2.8 US Gallons)
IMPORTANT: Read and follow all instructions and SAFETY PRECAUTIONS before using
this equipment. Retain for future reference.
DESCRIPTION
These Pressure Tanks are CE
marked in accordance with the
Pressure
Equipment
97/23/EC and ATEX Directive 94/9/
EC Cat 2 G X for use in Zones 1
and 2. They are suitable for use
with flammable and waterbased
(83Z only) materials.
These pressure tanks are designed as a
pressure container to supply liquid material at
a constant preset pressure up to a maximum
of 5.5 bar (80 psi). The tanks are built to
ASME
specifications.
83C
constructed from electro-zinc plated carbon
steel. 83Z models have stainless steel fluid
passages and lid A polyethylene liner is
included for easy clean up.
Models:
83C-210:
Single
regulation,
plated carbon steel construction lid and shell.
83Z-210:
Single
regulation,
plated carbon steel shell, stainless steel fluid
passages and lids for waterbased materials.

Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents - for
example:
1,1,1,
methylene chloride - can chemically react with
aluminium parts and components and cause
an explosion hazard. These solvents will also
corrode the galvanized tank coating. Read the
label or data sheet for the material. Do not
use materials containing these solvents
with these pressure tanks.
Refer to specifications chart to ensure that
fluids and solvents being used are chemically
compatible with the tank wetted parts. Before
placing fluids or solvents in tank, always read
accompanying manufacturer's literature and
MSDS.
Directive
Air pressure loads that are higher than
design loads, or changes to the pressure feed
tank can cause the tank to rupture or explode.
· A safety valve protects the tank from over
pressurization. During each use pull the ring
on the safety valve to make sure it operates
freely and relieves air pressure. If the valve is
stuck, does not operate freely, or does not
models
are
relieve air pressure, it must be replaced. Do
not
eliminate,
substitutions to this valve.
· Changes to the air tank will weaken it. Never
drill into, weld or change the tank in any way.
· The maximum working pressure of this tank
electro-zinc
is 5.5 bar (80 psi).

Static electricity can be created by the flow
-
trichloroethane
and
of fluid through the pressure tank and hose. If
all parts are not properly grounded, sparking
may occur. Sparks can ignite vapours from
solvents and the fluid being sprayed.
Ground the pressure tank by using conductive
air hoses and/or use of an ATEX approved
grounding clamp from the tank and the other
end to a true earth ground.
If
experienced while using this equipment, stop
spraying immediately. Check continuity to
earth before continuing to use the equipment.
Pressure Relief Procedure
High pressure can cause a serious injury.
Pressure is maintained in a pressure tank
after the system has been shut down. Before
attempting removal of the cover, pressure
must be relieved using the following steps:
1. Turn off the main air supply to the tank.
2. Close air inlet valve located on tank air
manifold.
3. Bleed off air in the tank by turning the air
relief valve thumb screw counterclockwise.
Wait until all the air has escaped through the
valve before removing the pressure tank
make
adjustments
or
cover.
4. Leave the air relief valve open until you
have reinstalled the cover.
