SERIES 2:
REDEFINING
PAINT APPLICATION
Anest Iwata is pleased to announce
the all-new Series 2 range of spray guns;
the S in WS-400 and LS-400 stands for Superior and that is exactly what
the Series 2 symbolises.
NEW ATOMISATION TECHNOLOGY
Split Nozzle™ 2.0
Anest Iwata have developed three
types of Split Nozzle™ 2.0 technology – WS-400 BASE LINE, WS-400 CLEAR LINE
and LS-400 BASE LINE, creating an out the box experience, producing best in class performance.


DIGITAL MANOMETER
DPG-1
Anest Iwata developed the world’s smallest quick-detachable digital manometer, the DPG-1. It has reliable and consistent performance, is easy to use and fits perfectly into the spray gun handle. Anest Iwata’s signature ergonomic design is preserved. • It keeps the centre of gravity low, maintaining the balance of the spray gun. • It turns off automatically when no pressure is applied. • It warns you when the battery is low. • It turns on automatically when the gun comes to pressure.


ERGONOMIC EXPERIENCE
Ergonomy
Anest Iwata and Pininfarina have carefully researched and developed a new design
for the body of the spray gun, maintaining the style of the original WS and LS.
For the Series 2, Anest Iwata pushed
the boundaries of the original design
of the WS/LS-400, resulting in a more contoured, lightweight body with improved balance.


BEAUTY MEETS DURABILITY
PVD Surface Treatment
The Series 2 digital version features
a brand-new special surface treatment based on PVD technology (Physical Vapour Deposition). The PVD coating provides is more durable and more scratch resistant coating, while also providing
a darker more striking appearance.


Spray gun Models
WS-400 SERIES 2 BASE
The WS-400 SERIES 2 BASE is a compliant spray gun that has been specially designed for wet-on-wet basecoat applications.
The stunning electric blue finish on the adjusters and air cap rings distinguishes the WS-400 BASE.

BASECOAT APPLICATIONS
WS-400 SERIES 2 BASE
OBS and BF configurations create an out the box experience resulting in best-in-class performance. Air cap and Nozzle settings include: 1.3 OBS, for standard conditions. 1.3 OBS+1, for dry conditions. 1.3 OBS-0, for humid conditions. BF stands for type B wet-on-wet applications. BF-S is designed for standard conditions.
BASECOAT APPLICATIONS
LS-400 SERIES 2 BASE
A unique HVLP hybrid spray gun with the ability to perform in all climates and conditions. Built with high transfer efficiency in mind resulting in paint savings across the board. ET- ETS NOZZLE SETTING: ET stands for standard and humid climate, ETS stands for dry climate conditions. The ET / ETS nozzle are both available in 1.2mm, 1.3mm, 1.4mm and 1.5mm set ups.
CLEARCOAT APPLICATIONS
WS-400 SERIES 2 CLEAR
HD stands for High Delivery; the HD nozzles make the application of clearcoats effortless. Split Nozzle™ 2.0 technology breaks up the clearcoat in a way that standard nozzles cannot, giving the painter an unrivalled experience. HD NOZZLE SETTING.
Four different Nozzle sizes are available: 1.2 HD, 1.3 HD, 1.4 HD and 1.5 HD.

Air Cap Design
INNOVATIVE AND STREAMLINED
QUICK-MAG SYSTEM
Fully integrated, maintaining the balance, feel and design of the original WS and
LS-400 spray guns. Incorporated with the Click Mag Locking System, it can easily be detached for cleaning purposes.


QUICK-MAG SYSTEM
STEP 1
Following spraying, it is important
to ensure that the spray gun is not pressurised before trying to remove
the DPG-1. A locking mechanism will prevent removal of the DPG-1 unit.


QUICK-MAG SYSTEM
STEP 2
Turn the DPG-1 45° clockwise to disengage the Flip-Mag Locking System.


QUICK-MAG SYSTEM
STEP 3
Detach the DPG-1 backwards.


QUICK-MAG SYSTEM
STEP 4
Use the Trigger Locking Clip to close
the pressure reading port: this will protect the internal passages of the spray gun and enable safe cleaning.


QUICK-MAG SYSTEM
STEP 5
Relocate the DPG-1 on the spray gun turned about 30°. Rotate the unit into
its normal orientation.


QUICK-MAG SYSTEM
STEP 6
Ensure the Flip Mag Locking System
is engaged correctly, once done you
can continue spraying.


CHANGING THE BATTERY
DPG-1 BATTERY SYSTEM
• The battery housing is sealed
with 2 screws.
• Simply unscrew them to open
the housing, giving you direct access
to the battery.
• Battery sets including battery
and gasket are available separately.
• Battery changes are simple and easy.


NON-DIGITAL VERSION
WS-400 SERIES 2 BASE
The WS-400 Series 2 BASE Superior range is ideal for wet on wet basecoat applications. A wide range of optimised nozzle configurations are available for a variety of paints brands, climates, and conditions. The all new HVC pressure regulator is recommended and accurate performance and colour reproduction.


NON-DIGITAL VERSION
LS-400 SERIES 2 BASE
The LS-400 SERIES 2 BASE superior range is ideal for a wide range of basecoat applications. A wide range of optimised nozzle configurations are available for a variety of paints brands, climates, and conditions. The all new HVC pressure regulator is recommended and accurate performance and colour reproduction.


NON-DIGITAL VERSION

The WS-400 SERIES 2 CLEAR superior range is perfectly placed for the application of clearcoats. Optimised setups are available covering a wide range of application requirements, including styles and speeds. The all new HVC pressure regulator is recommended and accurate performance and colour reproduction.


Split Nozzle 2.0
Split Nozzle™ 2.0 is the most advanced paint atomisation technology in the industry.
Refined micro-details of all moving and sensitive parts allow for the Series 2 to achieve a shorter shape and a lighter weight than the previous version. The result is the optimisation of the ergonomic experience, unrivalled by any competitor.
Thanks to improved atomisation by Split Nozzle™ 2.0 technology, our engineers are not limited by the lack of adjustable parameters that restrict traditional nozzles, allowing them to craft the perfect fan pattern.
SPLIT NOZZLE™ 2.0
The Split Nozzle™ 2.0 makes the difference
Since the invention of pre-atomisation technology in 1993, Anest Iwata have never stopped striving to improve it. The most advanced pre-atomisation technology, ’Split Nozzle™ 2.0’, was developed exclusively for the Series 2 spray guns to offer unrivalled performance. In harmony with all new and traditional types of auto-refinish paint.


SET UP
Optimized
Set up
Each model of the Series 2 range is optimised for their dedicated application, meaning they can deliver best in class performance straight out of the box.


THE COMPARISON
Split Nozzle™ 2.0:
• Air is pushed through the serrations, forcing air into the centre of the paint jet stream, pre-atomising the material.
• Highly optimised atomisation provides excellent performance.
Standard Nozzle:
• Air cannot penetrate the centre flow of material, limiting factors to influence atomisation and performance.
• Limited factors to influence atomisation and performance.


ANEST IWATA FAN PATTERN
Fan Pattern
• Characterized by a flat shape.
• Balanced, even distribution of the droplets.
• Application made easy and almost effortless for the user.
• No need to worry about imperfect overlaps.


ANEST IWATA FAN PATTERN
Additional Benefits
• Low material and air consumption keeping costs low, helping to protect the environment.
• Perfect colour reproduction means less manual adjustment.
• Perfect finish every time.
• Improved laydown = less rework.


Engineering THE WS-400 Series 2
"We wanted to create something unique in perfect Anest Iwata style. In the end we made it, creating something really special. I am proud of have been part on in this project."
