SATA clean RCS for trouble free colour gun changes 
Share:

More and more Irish spray painters are adopting SATA clean RCS, a compact and convenient spray painting that allow for perfect colour changes when working with disposable cup systems. 


The use of disposable cup systems for paint jobs has significantly changed the habits of spray gun cleaning.  In many cases, spray guns are cleaned with the help of dispensing bottles spraying cleaning solvents into the spray gun material passages. At first glance, this seems to be a quick and simple cleaning method. However, when working with adapters, the spray gun is not sufficiently cleaned which may lead to contamination of the next application. 

Cleaning the gun manually with brushes and immersion in gun cleaners using recycled thinners also carries the risk that contaminated cleaning agent may penetrate sensitive parts of the spray gun, like the air distribution ring or air passages, resulting in paint flaws. 

To facilitate spray gun cleaning and make it safer, faster and simpler, SATA now offers the perfect solution for the quick intermediate cleaning of spray guns.  

The SATA RCS (Rapid Clean System) is a compact, pneumatically operated cleaning system made of stainless steel which can be mounted at a convenient working height inside or outside the spray booth. 

In combination with the use of disposable cups, the painter can clean the material passage of the spray gun quickly, effectively, with reduced solution and without leaving any paint residues behind. The spray gun has to simply be held into the cleaning compartment of the device. 

With the spray gun connected to the air line and automatically reduced spray pressure, material passages and air cap of the spray gun are cleaned. In essence, these are all parts of the spray gun which usually come in contact with paint. This allows a perfect colour change in less than 30 seconds. As the device relies on the injection principle and works without a pump, it requires virtually no maintenance. It only uses fresh cleaning medium and so the risk of cross contamination is eliminated.

SATA RCS is available from stockist. For more information visit: www.sata.com
