33、EC by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For the relationship with EU Directive(s) see informative Annex ZZ, which is an integral part of this document. BS EN 50059:2018EN 50059:2018 (E) 6 0 Introduction 0.1 Proces
34、s During the electrostatic coating process the non-ignitable liquid coating material is transported from a reservoir to an applicator where it is atomised by mechanical forces and by the influence of an electric field. The coating material is charged by high voltage of some 10 kV and a spray cloud i
35、s generated. The charged droplets of the coating materials are attracted by and applied to the earthed workpiece. Droplets of the coating material, which are not applied to the workpiece (overspray) are removed by a suction device or by other means. After the coating process the coated workpieces ar
36、e introduced into a dryer or oven where a dry film of coating material is generated. 0.2 Fire hazards 0.2.1 Fire hazards can be caused by deposits of coating materials inside the spray booth, exhaust air ducts, the recovery system for coating materials, and filters. During operation, malfunctions or
37、 electrical faults may cause ignition of these residues. The propagation of the fire leads to hazards also in adjacent areas. 0.2.2 Particular attention should be paid to the prevention of electrostatic charges on different surfaces, which are in the vicinity of the spray cloud. This could apply bot
38、h to workpieces during the coating process or the reciprocating devices and the mounting parts of the spraying system, etc. 0.2.3 When spraying non-ignitable coating material, the formation of an explosive atmosphere is not likely to occur. Electrostatic application equipment for ignitable coating m
39、aterials are covered by EN 50050-1, EN 50050-2 and EN 50050-3. 0.3 Electric hazards 0.3.1 Electric shock (by direct or indirect contact) can be generated, for instance, by contact with live parts, which are not insulated for operational reasons, conductive parts, which are not connected to dangerous
40、 voltage during normal operation, but only in case of failure, insulated live parts with insufficient or damaged insulation due to external impact, charged passive parts with inadequate earthing. 0.3.2 Inadequate earthing may occur, for instance, due to faulty connections to the protective earthing
41、system, a too high resistance to earth (e.g. contamination by coating materials). 0.3.3 Hazards could occur, for instance, if hazardous malfunctions (e.g. shortcut of electronic safety circuits) occur due to interferences of the electrostatic high voltage equipment and the components of the control
42、and safety systems. 0.3.4 Hazardous electrostatic discharges could be generated, for instance, by non-earthed conductive components or by large insulating surfaces, especially if they are backed with conductive material. BS EN 50059:2018EN 50059:2018 (E) 7 0.3.5 Ventricular fibrillation is the prima
43、ry risk of electric shock. The undercut of the current/time limit and the fibrillation limit are proven by current and time measurement. In this standard, I(t) is used as a measure for falling below the current/time limit and the fibrillation limit. It is comparable to the amount of current It or th
44、e specific fibrillation energy 2 Itin accordance with IEC/TS 60479-1 and IEC TS 60479-2. A power limit as given in the standards EN 50176, EN 50177, EN 50223 and EN 50348 is not applicable in this standard due to the characteristics of the equipment and the resulting hazard of electric current. BS E
45、N 50059:2018EN 50059:2018 (E) 8 1 Scope 1.1 This European Standard specifies the requirements for hand-held or hand-operated electrostatic spraying equipment for non-ignitable liquid coating materials which do not generate an explosive atmosphere inside the spraying area; are used to process materia
46、ls with a conductivity of less than 2 000 S/cm; operate with direct current having a sinusoidal ripple of not more than 10 % of the rms value. This European Standard deals with all electrical hazards significant for the electrostatic spraying of non-ignitable liquid coating materials, which could al
47、so contain small quantities of added metal particles, if the work is carried out under conditions recommended by the manufacturer. This European Standard specifies the design-related and test requirements for electrostatic spraying equipment of type A-NL according to Table 1 of EN 50348:2010. 1.2 Wi
48、th regard to all other significant hazards relevant for applicators (e.g. ejection of fluids, mechanical strength, electrical - apart from electrostatic - hazards, noise, contact with or inhalation of dangerous substances, ergonomics) the requirements of EN 1953 apply. 1.3 This European Standard als
49、o gives details regarding quality assurance systems for electrostatic spraying equipment, see Annex D. 1.4 For electrostatic spraying equipment used in food and pharmaceutical industry, additional requirements may apply. 1.5 This document is not applicable to electrostatic hand-held spraying equipment for non-ignitable coating materials which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN, cleaning of spraying areas, see instruction manual of the spraying booth, fi
