SATAjet 100 B Practical Guide: Optimal Settings, Tips & Buying Advice

Practical Guide

SATAjet® 100 B – Your Allrounder for Fillers & Primers

The SATAjet 100 B is the reliable solution when it comes to evenly applying fillers, primers, and thicker coatings. In this practical guide, you’ll learn how to unlock the gun’s full potential – from optimal settings to the professional workflow and quick troubleshooting.

SATAjet 100 B Spray Gun

Product Variants at a Glance

Variant Use Advantage
HVLP Highest material efficiency at lower spray pressure Especially efficient & VOC-compliant
RP Faster application of thicker coatings Time savings through higher working speed
1.6–2.5 mm
Nozzle sets for fillers & primers
2.0–2.5 bar
Recommended inlet pressure (reference value)
>65%
Transfer efficiency (HVLP)
Practical Tip: Adjust the gun so that the spray pattern is slightly oval. This prevents material build-up in the center and ensures an even coat.

Professional Workflow – 6 Steps

  1. Fill the cup and adjust material viscosity according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. Install nozzle and air cap according to application (e.g., 2.0 mm for filler).
  3. Set working pressure: HVLP approx. 2.0 bar, RP approx. 2.5 bar (reference values).
  4. Test spray on a sample panel and check spray pattern.
  5. Spray evenly, keeping a distance of approx. 15–20 cm from the surface.
  6. Clean immediately after use to avoid material build-up.

Quick Troubleshooting

  • Uneven spray pattern: Clean air cap, check nozzle set.
  • Too coarse application: Use smaller nozzle or thin material further.
  • Runs/sags: Increase spraying distance, reduce material amount.
  • Material leaking at cup: Check seal, replace if necessary.

Easy Maintenance

  • Flush the gun with suitable cleaning agent after each use.
  • Regularly check nozzle and needle for wear.
  • Lubricate seals and replace if necessary.
  • Keep air channels free of paint residue.
  • Thoroughly clean the cup, do not allow residues to dry in.

Frequently Asked Questions

What nozzle size is ideal for fillers?
Reference value: 1.8–2.5 mm, depending on material thickness.

Can I use the SATAjet 100 B for basecoats?
The gun is primarily designed for fillers and primers; SATA recommends special models for basecoats.

How often should the gun be disassembled?
Only when necessary and for thorough cleaning – daily care is sufficient.

What to do if air bubbles form in the material?
Check the cup seal, mix material correctly.

Are there differences between HVLP and RP?
Yes: HVLP = higher material efficiency, RP = faster application.

Conclusion: With the SATAjet 100 B, you secure a robust tool for all prep work. Thanks to clear settings, easy handling, and quick cleaning, it’s the perfect choice for efficient painting processes.
