Marine M12: The Airless Pump for Marine Applications

Tecnover presents the Marine M12, the advanced, sophisticated airless pump conceived for marine applications. The model, developed specifically for the marine sector, was built for applying both gelcoat and the so-called antifouling paints, essential for keeping boats at peak performance.

The technical specifications of the Marine M12 include:

  • CE-compliant electric motor fitted with motor protection
  • Power: single-phase 1.8 kW, 230 V/50 Hz, or three-phase 2.2 kW, 380 V/50 Hz
  • CE-compliant noise level (75 dB)
  • Maximum pressure: 220 bar
  • Free flow: 9 l/min
  • Maximum spray tip orifice diameter: 0.041″
  • Delivery head: 70 metres

The airless method proves the most effective and efficient way to guarantee extremely high-yield painting while avoiding mist formation.

Specifically, the airless painting system sends the product at a pressure of 220 bar to the gun, which is fitted with a tungsten carbide tip.

The pressure drop at the tip’s outlet promotes atomisation of the product, which thus reaches the surface to be painted directly and at low velocity. Since airless painting eliminates carrier air and minimises product bounce-back, overspray is essentially zero during application.

What are the benefits of using an airless painting method in the marine sector too?

  • Zero product dispersion guarantees excellent yield from the materials used
  • The painting method offers maximum application speed
  • The absence of mist during application is entirely to the benefit of the operator’s health

The Tecnover Marine M12 airless pump is supplied as a complete kit, comprising:

  • Marine M12 trolley-mounted airless pump
  • 6-litre gravity-feed hopper
  • Fitting with pressure gauge
  • Anti-vibration hose
  • Single steel-braid high-pressure hose, ¼″ diameter, WP 300 bar, 10 metres long
  • Professional B500 airless gun
  • 2 Zip Tip self-cleaning tips (different sizes) for antifouling and gelcoat application
