Huh?
Q. CED bath conductivity is low ... how to increase?

A. Good day, Kapadiya Samir!
First, follow the parameters and limits of the E-paint supplier.
To increase the conductivity of the E-paint in the bath:
1. increase the resin and paste content, solid and p/b ratio go up.
2. check the pH of E-paint, decreasing the pH increases the conductivity.
3. check the solvent content, increasing the solvent increases the conductivity.
What changes in the quality of the coating do you observe at low conductivity?

2006Q. If conductivity of CED bath is reduced up to 400 microsiemens and pH is 6.2 , then what happens in the coating? Then how can I increase conductivity?
My CED bath level is reduced daily after some processing of articles. How can we maintain bath level? (NVM % is within the limit)

A. At a pH of 6.2 you should have a paint kick-out!
Simply add the pH controller supplied by the paint supplier and your pH will fall within range and the conductivity will go up.
Your paint supplier should be able to help you on that.

Q. Hi everybody.
I've experienced almost the same issue lately!
Although all CED bath parameters have been in the range as below, the conductivity of CED paint gradually decreased from 1600 to around 1000 value.
NV: 15%
pH: 6
MEQ: 38
Moreover, we couldn't find any UF drainage or bacteria attack!
Your response would be highly appreciated :)

A. Your MEQ & pH value are not in proportion. Please check again.

Q. My name is Thomas and I've been having problems with high conductivity in my PPG paint bath can you please tell me what I must do to get a lower conductivity level?

A. Send some ultrafilter permeate to drain and make up the volume with water. This may take several days to get back into range. Most importantly - find the source of the high conductivity. (i.e. drag in from pretreatment.)
