NYC 1968 Code (Vol I) > 7 Special Uses and Occupancies > 3 Occupancies Involving Spray or Dip Finishing
§27-406 Application
This section shall apply to the construction, alteration, and use of buildings or spaces for the spraying, dipping, or drying of flammable paints, varnishes, and lacquers or other flammable materials, mixtures, or compounds used for painting, varnishing, staining, or similar purposes.
§27-407 Classification
All occupancies involving spray painting, dipping, and drying with flammable materials shall be classified in high hazard occupancy group A.
§27-408 Location of Processes
Spraying, dipping, or drying processes shall be located in accordance with the requirements of 27-403 of article two of this subchapter.
§27-409 Construction
(a) Spray booths. Spray booths shall be substantially constructed of noncombustible materials. Panels of polished wired glass at least one-quarter inch thick, not exceeding seven hundred twenty square inches in area and not more than forty-eight inches in any linear dimension, may be used in the sides of spray booths.
(1) Spray booths shall be provided with a mechanical ventilating system meeting the requirements of section 27-410 of this article.
(2) Each spray booth having a frontal area larger than nine square feet shall have a noncombustible deflector or curtain at least six inches deep installed along the upper outer edge of the booth, over the opening, and shall be protected with an automatic sprinkler system. The interior of ducts shall be protected with sprinklers complying with the construction requirements of subchapter seventeen of this chapter, installed not more than twelve feet apart in horizontal ducts, and the sprinklers shall be accessible through duct access doors.
(b) Dip tanks. Dip tanks, including their supports and drainboards when provided, shall be of an approved type.
§27-410 Ventilation
Spraying or dipping spaces shall be mechanically ventilated during spraying or dipping operations so that the velocity of air is at least one hundred linear feet per minute in the breathing zone of the operator, conveying air toward the exhaust hood. The ventilating system shall be of sufficient capacity to prevent the accumulation of mist or vapors. Air shall be admitted to the spraying or dipping spaces in an amount equal to the capacity of the fan or fans and in a manner that prevents short-circuiting the path of air in the working zone of such spaces. The exhaust fan control shall be interconnected with spray guns so that they cannot be operated without the ventilation system being in operation. Exhaust fans shall, in addition, be arranged to operate independently of spray guns. Ventilation equipment shall be kept in operation for sufficient length of time after spraying or dipping operations to exhaust all vapors, fumes, or residues of spraying materials from the spray, space dip space, or drying room.
(a) Ventilating ducts shall run directly to the outer air and be protected with a hood against the weather. Ventilating ducts shall be installed in accordance with the requirements of subchapter thirteen of this chapter, but shall not terminate within ten feet horizontally of any chimney outlet, or within twenty feet of any exit or any opening in an adjoining wall.
(b) Make-up air shall be supplied from a point outside the spraying or dipping space.
(c) The exhaust system from any spraying, dipping or drying space shall not be connected to any other ventilating system or be discharged into a chimney or flue used for the purpose of conveying gases of combustion.
(d) Exhaust fan blades shall be constructed of nonferrous material. Fan blades not coming in direct contact with spraying fumes need not comply with this requirement.
(e) Adequate access doors or panels, tightly fitted, shall be provided to permit inspection and cleaning of ducts.
§27-411 Drying Equipment
Ovens and furnaces operated in connection with spray or dip finishing processes shall be of an approved type.
