Atomizing Air Pressure
The recommended atomizing air pressure, both in bar and psi, helps to set up the spray gun to the right pressure.
Air Flow Rate (Air Consumption)
The air flow rate, both lpm (liter per minute) and SCFM (standard cubic feet per minute), helps to determine the size of the compressor that is needed to operate the spay gun.
Maximum Spray Pattern Size
The maximum spray pattern is highly dependent on the nozzle size used, i.e. the same air cap will provide a wider spray pattern when used with a larger nozzle size. Another factor is whether the spray gun is used as a “gravity feed”, “suction feed” or “pressure feed”. Pressure-feed guns tend to produce the widest pattern, followed by gravity and then suction (in that order). Iwata usually has separate air caps for pressure-feed guns, while gravity and suction guns often share the same air cap. In this case, the guide will give the overall maximum spray pattern (which is then taken from the gravity feed).
Iwata Air Cap Test Kit
Iwata Air Cap Test Kits (often referred to as “Air Cap Gauges”) are available for most HVLP models to measure and verify that the maximum allowable pressure of 10 psi is not exceeded.
