TempSpray – Temperatured Controlled Spraying

TempSpray Temperature controlled spraying

TempSpray Temperature controlled airless spraying: heat instead of dilute

Temperature controlled airless spraying is a paint application method that offers several advantages. WAGNER’s TempSpray technology uses a heated hose to improve surface finish. In this guide, we’ll explain how the technology works and the benefits it provides. So what is it? 

What is temperature controlled airless spraying?

Temperature-controlled airless spraying is a process in which the ideal viscosity for spraying is achieved by heating the material to the optimum temperature throughout the year. A heated hose is used to heat the material to the required temperature. By optimising temperature, the viscosity is reduced, and this, in turn, reduces the required spraying pressure. As a result, paint overspray is reduced, the longevity of your sprayer is increased, and the surface finish is improved.

TempSpray – how does the work?

The heated hose is an innovative accessory that connects to the paint sprayer and replaces the regular hose that usually runs between the pump and paint spray gun. This cutting-edge technology uses an electric heating element to heat the material inside the hose to the desired temperature along the entire length of the hose. You have the flexibility to set the temperature between 20°C and 60°C, depending on your needs. This feature allows for a lower viscosity, which, in turn, leads to an exceptional material application. The softer spray jet and optimised atomisation make for an improved overall experience.

Spraying advantages with TempSpray

Using a heated hose to apply coating material ensures that it remains at a constant temperature, regardless of the ambient temperature. This helps to reduce its viscosity, even when dealing with highly viscous materials. As a result, the coating material can be applied at a lower pressure during temperature-controlled spraying, which can make a significant difference in the final outcome. The benefits of using a heated hose system for applying paint can be clearly seen in the final product.

By heating the material you achieve

  • Perfect spray pattern without tailing
  • Optimum surface quality thanks to softer spray jet and optimised atomisation
  • Considerably better edge coverage
  • Increased application efficiency
  • Reduced overspray with virtually no spray mist
  • Decreased masking requirement and subsequent cleaning
  • Shorter flash-off and drying time.

If you’re looking for a reliable and efficient way to connect your paint sprayers, WAGNER’s TempSpray heated hose system might just be what you need! Depending on your requirements, you can choose between a small, compact and handy model or go for something more practical with a long hose and reel. 

 

One of the most useful features of this product is the ability to adjust the desired temperature of the material from 20 to 60 degrees Celsius. When you switch it on, it automatically starts with an initial temperature of 40 degrees Celsius, but you can fully adjust the temperature setting of the product at any time to fit your specific needs. 

For larger heated hose systems, you’ll be pleased to know that there’s also an integrated hose reel that’s particularly practical for the construction site. With this, you’ll have a large working radius and a compact and safe way to store the hose, reducing any risk of damaging it. Overall, WAGNER’s TempSpray heated hose system is a great investment if you’re looking for a reliable and efficient way to connect your paint sprayers.

 TempSpray – what applications are suitable?

The WAGNER TempSpray is a top-of-the-line temperature-controlled spraying system that is specifically designed for professional use. The system features heated hoses that are capable of handling a wide range of coating materials, including paint, varnish, and many others. Among the different TempSpray models, the H 326 stands out with its 30-meter long hose that offers the largest working radius. Moreover, this model is ideal for highly viscous materials such as adhesives and sealants.

One of the most remarkable features of the WAGNER TempSpray system is its ability to deliver a flawless finish even at low outside temperatures. This means that you can use it to apply exterior paint and interior emulsion paints with ease and in large construction sites, even if the coating material has cooled down during storage. In situations where you’re dealing with large and draughty surfaces, like multi-storey car parks, bridges, and subways, the material tends to cool down quickly during the application. However, with TempSpray, this is no longer a problem. The hose heats the material to the desired temperature, ensuring that you can work all year round without any restrictions on the quality of the surface you create. With TempSpray, you’re in control, and you can easily defeat factors such as weather and outside temperature.

With the WAGNER TempSpray H 126, H 226 and H 326 offers temperature controlled spraying for every coating application. The various materials that can be applied are:

  • Enamels
  • Wood protection
  • Primers
  • Stains
  • Oils
  • Interior paints
  • Acrylic paints
  • Exterior paints
  • Fire protection
  • Water-proofing of buildings
  • Adhesives
  • Sealants

Please note

Which ever materials are being used please read manufacturers SDS sheets instructions regarding flammable material.

TempSpray Models Available

Works with

The TempSpray heated hose is available as an accessory for many Airless paint sprayers and also some AirCoat sprayers. This means that you can use the TempSpray with  models from the SuperFinish, the ProSpray through to the HeavyCoat to enjoy the benefits of temperature controlled spraying.
