Thermal spraying - Acceptance inspection of thermal spraying equipment - Part 3: Arc spraying

This European Standard specifies requirements for the acceptance inspection of thermal spraying equipment, in this case arc spraying, used to produce thermally sprayed coatings of reproducible quality.
This part should be used in conjunction with EN 1395-1, which includes general requirements and explanations of procedures.

Overview - EN 1395-3:2007 (Arc spraying, acceptance inspection)

EN 1395-3:2007 is the CEN European Standard that specifies requirements for the acceptance inspection of arc spraying equipment used to produce reproducible thermally sprayed coatings. It is Part 3 of the EN 1395 series and is intended to be used together with EN 1395-1 (general requirements and procedures). The standard defines the minimum technical checks, test conditions and documentation needed to confirm that arc spraying systems meet stable operational and quality requirements.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Scope and purpose: Establishes acceptance criteria for arc spraying equipment to ensure consistent coating quality and stable parameter settings.
• Test materials: Uses representative spray materials for verification - e.g., zinc‑aluminium alloy for anti‑corrosion systems and pure copper for engineering applications (as classified in EN ISO 14919:2001).
• Electrical power and wire feed:
  • Equipment must demonstrate required power rating for continuous operation.
  • Adjusted electrical values (current/voltage) must not deviate by more than ±5% during tests.
  • Continuous operation at maximum capacity for 10 minutes with suitable wire diameter is required.
• Atomising gas:
  • Hoses and controls must allow undisturbed operation.
  • Atomising gas pressure indication must stay within ±5% of the set point over a 10‑minute spraying period.
• Arc spraying nozzle:
  • Nozzle/contact tube design shall permit a constant arc and effective atomisation without deposits that disturb operation.
  • No disturbing deposits or arc instability should occur after testing.
• Documentation and report:
  • Annex A provides an inspection report template (initial test/retest) covering parameters, deviations, deposit presence, automatic shutdowns, and acceptance signature blocks.

Practical applications and who uses EN 1395-3

• Manufacturers of arc spraying equipment - to verify compliance before shipment.
• Quality assurance and inspection engineers - for commissioning, acceptance testing and periodic retests of spraying systems.
• Coating contractors and plant operators - to ensure installed equipment delivers reproducible coating quality for anti‑corrosion and engineering applications.
• Procurement and compliance teams - to include objective acceptance criteria in contracts and supplier agreements.
• Notified bodies / test laboratories - to perform standardized acceptance inspections and produce compliant inspection reports.

Related standards and references

• EN 1395-1: General requirements and test procedures (use in conjunction)
• EN 1395 series (Parts 2–7 cover flame/HVOF, plasma, manipulators, powder feed etc.)
• EN 657:2005 (terminology)
• EN ISO 14919:2001 (wires/rods classification and technical supply conditions)

EN 1395-3:2007 helps ensure arc spraying equipment is tested against clear, reproducible acceptance criteria - reducing coating variability and supporting consistent, auditable coating production.
