MEG® II Compact Spray Gun

nnnn

Compact electric spray gun for container coatings with ultra

nnnn

high-speed response enabling fast operation and high accuracy.

nnnn

Features and Benefits

nnnn

■ Fast response provides more open time for each spray

nnnn

cycle, which allows higher film weights when desired

nnnn

and lower operating pressures.

nnnn

■ Cool operation contributes to the fast response time

nnnn

and minimizes film build-up inside the gun, reducing

nnnn

maintenance.

nnnn

■ No internal metal-to-metal friction for less wear,

nnnn

longer service life and cooler operation.

nnnn

■ On-line gun-module replacement speeds maintenance.

nnnn

The Nordson MEG* II compact electric gun provides the fast,

nnnn

accurate application of solventborne and waterborne can lacquers

nnnn

to two- and three-piece containers, ease in disassembling the

nnnn

front end of the gun, and employs safety features for flammable

nnnn

spray materials. The MEG II gun is also ideal for exterior

nnnn

bottom-spray applications.

nnnn

Fast Response Time, Reliable Operation

nnnn

Consistent, repeatable fast open and close times provide more

nnnn

full-open time for each spray cycle. This allows for faster operat-

nnnn

ing speeds when desired and can allow lower operating pressures

nnnn

for less bounceback of applied coating. Repeatability provides

nnnn

more consistent spray weights, reduced material waste and

nnnn

cleaner operation.

nnnn

The MEG II compact spray gun has no internal metal-to-metal

nnnn

friction points, contributing to a faster response time, and

nnnn

reducing wear and heat generation in the gun. The coil and

nnnn

armature assembly is specially designed to create less heat than

nnnn

other electric guns for reliable operation and longer wear of

nnnn

the parts. The overall cooler operation of the gun reduces film

nnnn

build-up inside the gun and minimizes valve sticking.

nnnn

Ease of Maintenance and Repair

nnnn

The ball-and-seat assembly is designed to minimize wear, which

nnnn

greatly extends the product life of the gun. When repairs are

nnnn

needed, the gun module can be replaced on-line for minimal

nnnn

downtime. The gun body has been designed with "flats" to grab

nnnn

with a wrench for easier maintenance, and the seat holder has an

nnnn

indexing ability so the seat can be rotated to promote uniform

nnnn

wear on the contact points of the coil face. Altogether the gun

nnnn

contains few moving parts to simplify rebuilding and minimize

nnnn

replacement-part inventories.

nnnn

The semi-captured nozzle o-ring provides a reliable seal. The

nnnn

gun spray-end design holds the seat assembly from twisting

nnnn

when installing or removing a nozzle. This speeds installation

nnnn

and guards against damage to the gun caused by over-tightening

nnnn

of the nozzle nut.
