Iwata LPH400-154LVX 1.5mm Basecoat Spray Gun w/ 1000mL Cup (5683)

The Iwata LPH400-154LVX 1.5mm Basecoat Spray Gun w/ 1000mL Cup (5683) is a professional-grade HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) gravity-fed spray gun meticulously engineered for applying a wide range of basecoats, including metallics and pearls, in both solvent and waterborne formulations. This model incorporates Iwata’s advanced LVX eXtreme basecoat technology, which is specifically designed to significantly boost productivity and deliver an exceptionally smooth finish for 90-95% of all basecoat colors. It excels in handling the “middle range” colors where application speed and efficiency are critical for professional painters. Extensive field-testing and evaluations confirm its superior speed compared to competing models, consistently providing an ultra-smooth application without requiring changes to existing painting techniques. The Iwata LPH400-154LVX is a robust tool built for easy cleaning and maintenance, featuring minimal wear parts to ensure longevity and consistent performance in demanding environments. This spray gun is an essential instrument for automotive refinishing, custom painting, and industrial applications where a flawless basecoat is paramount.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:Optimized Basecoat Application: Specifically designed for efficient and smooth application of a wide range of basecoats, including metallic and pearl finishes, for consistent and high-quality results.eXtreme Basecoat Technology (LVX): This advanced technology enhances productivity and ensures an ultra-smooth finish, catering to 90-95% of all basecoat colors.Increased Productivity and Speed: Engineered to be much faster than comparable spray guns, particularly beneficial for middle-range colors where rapid application is desired.Consistent Finish Without Technique Change: Delivers a remarkably smooth application without requiring painters to adapt their established techniques, ensuring a seamless transition and consistent outcomes.HVLP Compliant: Operates at low air pressure, which contributes to higher material transfer efficiency and reduced overspray, leading to more economical paint usage and a cleaner work environment.Gravity Feed Design: The top-mounted 1000mL aluminum cup uses gravity to facilitate steady paint flow, providing reliable and consistent material delivery to the nozzle.SPECIFICATIONS:Nozzle Size: 1.5 mmAtomizing Air Pressure (recommended): 16 psi (1.1 bar)Air Consumption: 9.8 CFM (275 lpm)Fluid Output: 145 ml/minPattern Width: 13.0 inches (330 mm)Max Working Air Inlet Pressure: 98 PSIAir Inlet Size: 1/4″Gun Type: Manual, GravityAir & Fluid Connection: G1/4 (AIR)(NPS1/4) – M16 x 1.5 (FLUID)Noise Level: 69.4 dB(A)Included in Product: Iwata LPH400-154LVX Spray Gun, 1000mL Aluminum Cup (PCG10EM)HOW TO USE:Prepare Your Surface: Ensure the surface to be painted is clean, dry, and properly prepped according to paint manufacturer specifications.Mix Your Material: Prepare your basecoat, metallic, or pearl paint material as per the paint manufacturer’s mixing ratios and instructions.Fill the Cup: Pour the prepared paint material into the 1000mL aluminum cup. Ensure the cup is securely attached to the spray gun.Connect Air Supply: Attach an air hose to the 1/4″ air inlet of the spray gun. Set your air compressor regulator to the recommended atomizing air pressure of 16 psi (1.1 bar).Adjust Settings: Adjust the fluid output and fan pattern controls on the spray gun to achieve your desired spray pattern and material flow. Test on a practice panel to fine-tune settings before applying to your actual project.Apply Material: Hold the spray gun perpendicular to the surface at a consistent distance (typically 6-8 inches). Apply the paint in even, overlapping passes, maintaining a steady arm movement.Clean Up: After use, disconnect the air supply. Empty any remaining paint from the cup and thoroughly clean the spray gun according to the paint manufacturer’s and Iwata’s cleaning recommendations using appropriate cleaning solvents.BENEFITS OF USING IWATA LPH400-154LVX 1.5MM BASECOAT SPRAY GUN W/ 1000ML CUP (5683):Achieves a high-quality finish on a wide range of basecoat colors.Enhances painting efficiency and reduces application time.Provides consistent and reliable performance for professional results.Reduces paint waste through efficient material transfer.Designed for straightforward cleaning and maintenance, simplifying upkeep.Supports both solvent and waterborne paint systems, offering versatility.FEATURES:Precision-engineered 1.5 mm nozzle for consistent atomization.Optimized air cap design for broad and uniform spray patterns.Integrated air and fluid controls for precise adjustments during painting.Lightweight body construction for comfortable handling during extended use.Corrosion-resistant components suitable for various paint types.Ergonomic grip design for balanced operation and reduced fatigue.High-grade aluminum cup for durability and easy material monitoring.Low overspray design for improved material usage and a cleaner environment.
