Iwata W400LV-164G 1.6mm Gravity Fed Spray Gun Only (4765)

The Iwata W400LV-164G 1.6mm Gravity Fed Spray Gun Only (4765) is engineered for professional painters demanding precision, efficiency, and a superior finish. This spray gun integrates advanced LV Technology with a High-TEC standard, ensuring remarkable atomization and high transfer efficiency. The gravity-fed design provides consistent paint delivery, making it suitable for a broad spectrum of coating applications, from automotive refinishing to industrial and woodworking projects. Its innovative features are designed to reduce material waste, minimize rework, and consistently produce a smooth, even, and high-quality coating. The W400LV-164G meets EPA NESHAP 40 CFR, Part 63 Subpart 6H compliance standards, reflecting its adherence to environmental regulations.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Gravity Fed System: Ensures consistent paint flow and optimal material utilization with the cup positioned on top.
• 1.6mm Fluid Nozzle: Provides a versatile spray pattern and flow rate suitable for a range of coatings.
• LV Technology (Low Volume): Pre-atomizes paint with less air pressure and lower air consumption, increasing transfer efficiency and saving material.
• Split Nozzle™ Technology: Promotes superior atomization, droplet stability, and a perfectly even, flat spray pattern, minimizing common finish defects.
• "Tulip Inspired" Spray Pattern: Unique "U" shape directs paint precisely, reducing overspray and maximizing coverage.
• High Transfer Efficiency: More paint reaches the surface, reducing waste and contributing to cost savings.
• Ergonomic Design: Provides comfort during extended use, reducing user fatigue.
• Easy Cleaning and Maintenance: Designed for straightforward upkeep with minimal wear parts.
• EPA NESHAP 40 CFR, Part 63 Subpart 6H Compliant: Adheres to specific environmental regulatory standards for spray guns.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Fluid Nozzle Size: 1.6 mm
• Air Consumption: 10.5 CFM
• Fan Pattern Width: 12.0 inches
• Fluid Output: 185 ml/min
• Max. Pressure: 0.68 MPa / 6.8 bar / 98 psi
• Recommended Inlet Air Pressure: 1.0 - 1.4 bar (14 - 20 psi) at the spray gun (with air regulator)
• Included in Purchase: W400LV-164G Spray Gun Only (no cup included, often sold separately or as a kit variant).

HOW TO USE:

1. Preparation: Ensure your air compressor is ready and your paint is properly mixed and strained. Attach a suitable gravity feed cup to the top of the spray gun, filling it with your prepared coating material.
2. Connect Air Hose: Securely connect the air hose from your compressor to the air inlet at the bottom of the spray gun, possibly through an air regulator for precise pressure control.
3. Adjust Air Pressure: Set the recommended air pressure at the gun's inlet using a regulator, typically between 1.0 - 1.4 bar (14 - 20 psi), referring to your paint manufacturer's guidelines.
4. Adjust Spray Pattern: Test the spray pattern on a practice surface. Use the air cap adjustments to control the fan width and orientation (horizontal or vertical). Adjust the fluid control knob to regulate the amount of paint flow.
5. Application: Hold the gun perpendicular to the surface at a consistent distance (typically 6-8 inches). Begin moving the gun before pulling the trigger, then release the trigger before stopping your movement. Overlap each pass by 50% for even coverage.
6. Cleaning: Immediately after use, thoroughly clean the spray gun. Disassemble the air cap and fluid nozzle. Use appropriate cleaning solvents to flush paint passages and clean all components, ensuring no paint dries inside.
