MEG II Compact Spray Gun ® Compact electric spray gun for container coatings with ultra high speed response enabling fast operation and high accuracy. The new generation of Nordson MEG compact electric gun not only provides the fast, accurate application of solventborne and waterborne can lacquers to two- and three-piece Nordson MEG II Gun, 90% open, 2 msec, 2 msec, Timer set spray duration containers, but also provides ease in Other Electric Guns, 90% open, 5 - 11 msec, 7 - 15 msec, Timer set spray duration disassembling the front end of the gun, and employs safety features for The semi-captured nozzle o-ring provides a reliable seal. The new flammable spray materials. The MEG II gun is also ideal for gun spray-end design holds the seat assembly from twisting when exterior bottom-spray applications. installing or removing a nozzle. This speeds installation and guards against damage to the gun caused by over-tightening of the nozzle nut. Fast Response Time, Reliable Operation Consistent, repeatable fast open and close times provide more full-open time for each spray cycle. This allows for faster operating speeds when desired and can allow lower operating pressures for less bounceback of applied coating. Repeatability provides more consistent spray weights, reduced material waste and cleaner operation. The MEG II gun’s nozzle adjustment feature allows the spray pattern to be rotated on its radial axis to achieve more precise placement of the pattern into the can. The nozzle can be adjusted while the gun is in operation. The MEG II Compact Spray Gun has no internal metal-to-metal friction points, contributing to a faster response time, and reducing wear and heat generation in the gun. The coil and armature assembly is specially designed to create less heat than other electric guns for reliable operation and longer wear of the parts. The overall cooler operation of the gun reduces film build-up inside the gun and minimizes valve sticking. Ease of Maintenance and Repair The ball-and-seat assembly is designed to minimize wear, which greatly extends the product life of the gun. When repairs are needed, the gun module can be replaced on-line for minimal downtime. The gun body has been designed with “flats” to grab with a wrench for easier maintenance, and the seat holder has an indexing ability so the seat can be rotated to promote uniform wear on the contact points of the coil face. Altogether the gun contains few moving parts to simplify rebuilding and minimize replacement-part inventories. The MEG II gun provides easy addition of the Nordson CleanSpray® Automated Nozzle-Cleaning System. Automated nozzle cleaning reduces manual nozzle cleaning to as little as once per shift, which reduces labor, increases productivity and improves coating quality. The MEG II gun is also compatible with the Nordson CanWorks® System. Installed with the gun or added later, this system monitors the flow of coating material through the nozzle and automatically alerts the user to changes in flow. Use of the CanWorks System option with the MEG II gun offers enhanced product performance and quality of the can coating operation to minimize rejects and optimize production quality.

MEG® II Compact Spray Gun The MEG® Driver Operating Parameters Operation of the MEG II gun is controlled by a driver that provides a current-controlled signal to the gun. To speed gun response time, the MEG driver delivers a higher turn-on current pulse for three milliseconds, followed by a lower holding current for the duration of the period. This minimizes the amount of energy stored in the gun and results in a fast turn-off time. The gun drive signal is precise and consistent, and requires no adjustments. Coating Type: Waterbased or solvent-based can lacquers Fluid Pressure: 1200 psi...
