Deflected Flame Spray Extension

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document specifies the deflected flame spray extension, an accessory developed by Metallisation to improve coating quality in difficult-to-access areas, particularly in the petro-chemical industry. It addresses the challenge of applying coatings in tight spaces between pipes and structures, ensuring better corrosion protection.

Specifications
The extension is robust, available in three lengths (150mm, 300mm, 450mm), and compatible with 1/8” or 3/16” wires. It fits directly onto Metallisation's MK73 or MK61 flame spray systems and uses the same consumable spares. The deflection angle can be adjusted from 0º to 90º, and the nozzle can rotate 180º for a 360º spray arc.

Technical Overview
The extension requires an additional regulated air supply and comes with a 6.5m air hose. It maintains standard flame spray coating characteristics. The weight and length vary by model, with the 150mm version weighing 1.1kg and the 450mm version weighing 1.5kg.

Performance
Performance data for the MK73 pistol includes throughput and coverage for different wire materials and diameters. For example, 3/16” Aluminium wire has a throughput of 7.5 kg/hr.

Safety Considerations
Users must implement safety measures due to noise, dust, pressurised air, and flammable gases. Proper equipment positioning and adherence to local safety requirements are essential.

Fitting the Extension
The extension fits onto existing MK73 or MK61 pistols. Standard parts are retained, and parameters for gas, oxygen, and air pressures need adjustment.

ARF Conversion
Details on air regulation and filtration units (ARF) are provided, including parts for modifying existing units to add a deflector air supply.
