Mark X 240 VOLT
Electric Airless Texture Sprayer
About 240 Volts
• The Mark X 240 VOLT operates on 220-240
volt, single phase power (L6-30 plug).
• 220-240 volt power is available at
most construction sites or with a
typical generator.
• Demand for 240 volts on a jobsite is less,
so it is easier to find an open receptacle.
No fighting other trades for power.
• 240 volts gives the extra power needed to
achieve gas sprayer performance, in an
electric unit.
• Contractors have discovered that 240 Volts
is an advantage, not an obstacle!
