Basic
Airless Sprayer Facts - How airless sprayers are rated
Airless sprayers are rated by the three
following factors:
1) Tip Size - Most airless sprayers will have a
specification of "Maximum Tip Size", this specification is the largest
size tip that the airless sprayer can support to maintain a
reasonable working pressure. If you were
to fit a larger tip than the maximum size rated for the airless sprayers you will
find that the pressure drop when you squeeze the trigger on the
airless sprayer hand gun will be much larger than the machine can handle
and
the finish may be distorted or produce "tails" at the top and bottom of
the spray fan.
Most of the major
brands of airless sprayers are conservative with the maximum tip size recommendation but
some companies in the past have rated airless sprayers by tip sizes that don't
exist such as 0.022". No company produces a 0.022" thou tip, you can
either buy a 0.021" tip or a 0.023" tip, this is purely marketing in a
cheap bid to "out-do" a competitors brand of airless sprayer when comparing brochures side
by side.
2) Flow Rate - This is measured in US
Gallons or Litres Per Minute, this is the best way to identify which
airless sprayer has the most output. The greater the flow, the easier
the machine works, so buy the airless sprayer with the highest amount flow where
ever possible.
3) Motor Size - Judging an airless
sprayer by the
motor size is probably the wrong way to work out which airless sprayer is best.
In piston electric airless sprayers, DC motors have advanced considerably
since the old days, smaller motors are producing more torque and with
brushless DC motors they come in all shapes and sizes. The best method
to identify the airless sprayer that suits your requirements would be to
consider the maximum size tip
and the flow rate. Don't be too concerned with the size or
specifications of the motor of an airless sprayer.
