EPTEX Coatings powder coating booth installation and relocation
EPTEX Coatings powder coating booths support powder application for fabricated parts, enclosures, fixtures and shop coating work. Double D Mechanical plans installation, relocation and connections around booth placement, powder containment, collector access, compressed air, electrical service, grounding and the route to curing equipment.

Coating Zone Layout
A useful booth layout gives operators access to the full part while protecting the path into and out of the coating zone. Part height, rack width, hook spacing, cart movement and nearby staging all influence where the booth can be set.
Capture Equipment And Maintenance Room
Collectors, filters, fans and powder cleanup points need practical access after installation. The booth should not be crowded against walls, storage, ovens or utility panels in a way that blocks cartridge removal, hopper access or fan service.
Utility Drops For Daily Operation
Compressed air, power, lighting, controls and grounding should be coordinated with gun locations and operator stations. Utility drops should support normal coating positions without crossing loading aisles or limiting maintenance access.
- Review part flow from prep through coating, cure and inspection.
- Locate collector access before anchoring booth panels or nearby equipment.
- Confirm compressed air, electrical service and grounding requirements early.
Relocation Documentation
For a move, record panel layout, collector position, fan discharge, control wiring, air drops, grounding points and the relationship to curing equipment. That information helps the new layout preserve airflow, service space and efficient part travel.
Frequently asked questions
What affects the placement of an EPTEX Coatings powder booth?
Part size, handling method, collector location, utility reach, service access and the cure path all affect placement.
Why should collector access be planned early?
Filters, fans, hoppers and cleanup points need routine attention, and those areas can become difficult to reach once other equipment is installed.
What should a facility gather before a walkdown?
Drawings, photos, part dimensions, rack details, collector information, compressed air data and electrical information are helpful.
How does relocation differ from a new install?
Relocation adds documentation of the existing booth, including panel order, fan direction, controls and utility connections before disassembly.
