The X 5500 RP with a digital pressure gauge built into the handle. You read inlet pressure where it matters, at the gun, to ±1 psi, so every coat starts from the same setting. Choose I or O nozzles.

Air consumption
10.2 cfm
Spray distance

Why it works

Repeatable pressure, same RP speed

  • Gauge in the handle. SATA says it lets you adjust pressure precisely for color accuracy and reproducible results. The handle stays compact.
  • The most accurate method. SATA's manual ranks a gun with an integrated digital display as the accurate way to set pressure. Setting it at the air line is the least accurate.
  • X nozzle system. I nozzles for control, O nozzles for speed. It sprays waterborne and solvent-based systems.
  • Ready to spray. It ships with RPS 0.6 L and 0.9 L cups on the QCC connection.
I or O

Pick your fan: I (Control) or O (Speed)

  • I nozzle. A parallel, elongated fan with a minimal dry zone and a drier center, for maximum control. It builds slightly less film per coat.
  • O nozzle. An oval fan with a wet core and a larger fade-out zone, for higher application speed.
  • Size is flow, not fan width. Going from 1.2 to 1.4 mm moves more material. Match it to your coating maker's data sheet.
Don't soak it. SATA's troubleshooting chart lists "soaked in cleaning solution for too long" as the cause of a blacked-out pressure display. Clean nozzle-down with air flowing, and keep the handle out of the bath. The gauge runs on one CR1632 cell, which SATA rates at 1–3 years.
Setup

How to set it up

  1. Run an antistatic, solvent-resistant hose with at least a 9 mm (about 3/8 in) inside diameter, and filter your air. SATA specifies both in the manual.
  2. Fill the cup no higher than 20 mm (about 3/4 in) below the rim and lock it onto the QCC connection.
  3. Open the material flow control and the air micrometer fully. Then pull the trigger all the way and read the handle display while you set 2.0 bar (29 psi).
  4. Spray from 17–21 cm (6.7–8.3 in). Pull the trigger fully on every pass.
  5. Clean it nozzle-down with a neutral cleaner (pH 6–8), keeping air flowing through the gun. Never soak it and never use an ultrasonic cleaner. Blow it dry when you're done.

Quick answers

FAQ

RP or HVLP: why RP?

SATA calls RP "the Extra-Fast": high-pressure technology for maximum working speed with VOC-compliant transfer rates. HVLP is "the Extra-Efficient": low-pressure technology for particularly high transfer rates. It needs more air and a closer spray distance.

How big a compressor do I need?

The gun alone uses 10.2 cfm (at 29 psi inlet). Size for that delivered air plus headroom for your hose, filters and anything else running. SATA also specifies a hose with at least 9 mm (3/8 in) inside diameter.

What comes with it?

SATA lists the gun with two RPS multi-purpose cups, one 0.6 L and one 0.9 L.

What battery does the gauge use?

One Renata CR1632. SATA says it lasts 1–3 years and gives a low-battery warning several weeks ahead. The gauge reads to ±1 psi.

Is there a warranty?

SATA offers a free extension to 3 years on spray guns through its Premium Warranty, which you activate online with the gun's serial number. It covers material and manufacturing defects. Wear parts and electronic components are excluded.
