One Gun Washer - Cleans Waterborne and Solvent Paint Equipment
Herkules Equipment Corporation introduces The G520 Dual Tank Waterborne & Solvent
Paint Gun Washer
|
|
|
The NEW Herkules
G520 Dual Tank Gun Washer provides paint technicians a complete cleaning station
for both types of paints. A manual cleaning station for cleaning waterborne paint,
and an automatic paint gun washer for cleaning solvent based paints. The prefect
solution for your production shop customers to clean paint equipment safely, quickly,
effectively and efficiently.
Valuable time can be saved by placing a waterborne spray gun directly up to the
G520’s nozzle for a powerful water stream to clean the waterborne paint out of the
paint channel, followed by a hands-free quick-rinse. The nozzles are operated by
convenient foot controls. The waterborne spray gun can be cleaned in less than a
minute.
The coagulant accelerator and filter system provide a safe and easy disposal method
of all waterborne paint waste. The dual filter system thoroughly catches all waterborne
paint, leaving clean water to re-use. The paint can dry and be disposed of properly.
The filters are durable enough to endure 20 to 30 processes.
The enclosed automatic tank will clean 2 guns and 2 cups in one minute, and can
be used to automatically clean exclusively either waterborne paint or solvent based
paint equipment.
Herkules’ extremely reliable diaphragm pump is covered with a three year warranty
providing shop owners confidence that they have invested in a trusted name in the
paint gun washer business.
Introduce your shop customers to the NEW Herkules G520 Dual Tank Gun Washer. Help
them save time and money and be more productive. To learn more, visit Herkules online
