Open Front Paint Booth
Open Front Design. Built for Batch or Line.
Every Open Front Paint Booth ships with high-efficiency W-Series RP Paint Arrestor blanket filters, selected for extended life, increased depth loading, and high holding capacity. RTT’s FilterLoc technology secures these filters with a tighter seal to the booth frame, eliminating overspray bypass and simplifying filter changeouts. E-Light LED fixtures – available in 4,000 and 8,000 lumen models – provide code-compliant illumination rated Class 1 Division 2 (Groups A, B, C, D) and Class 2 Division 2 (Groups F and G), with no safety interlock required. An optional air solenoid valve interlocks the exhaust fan with the spray equipment air supply.
RTT is the only paint booth manufacturer to offer a 5-year warranty. Construction uses 18-gauge prime-quality galvanized steel with precision-punched panels and support members for nut-and-bolt field assembly. Most standard models are available with a 10-day lead time after order acknowledgement, without modifications.
Features
- Open front airflow: air enters through open front, exhausts through filtered rear chamber and exhaust stack
- 18-gauge prime-quality galvanized steel construction with engineered support structure; precision-punched panels for nut-and-bolt assembly
- High-efficiency W-Series RP Paint Arrestor blanket filters included standard
- FilterLoc filter retention technology seals filters to booth frame; eliminates overspray bypass
- Brand-name tubeaxial fans and motors
- Suitable for both batch and conveyorized production systems
- 5-year warranty
- Meets and exceeds all applicable OSHA and NFPA regulations
Benefits
- Fit the booth to your production method – open front design works equally well for batch loading and conveyorized production lines without modification.
- Eliminate overspray bypass at the exhaust filter – FilterLoc technology seals W-Series RP Arrestor filters directly to the booth frame, preventing unfiltered air from escaping around the filter media.
- Reduce filter change-out time – high holding capacity and increased depth loading on the W-Series RP blanket filters extend service intervals between changeouts.
- Reduce lighting energy and maintenance costs – E-Light LED fixtures require no safety interlock, and consume less energy than fluorescent alternatives.
- Cover your booth with the industry’s only 5-year warranty.
- Make efficient use of valuable floor space – 36 standard size configurations from 4′ to 20′ wide let you match the booth to your facility footprint without overbuilding.
- Reduce installation time – precision-punched panels and support members bolt together in the field without custom fabrication or special tooling.

Frequently Asked Questions
When Should I Change the Filters on My Spray Booth?
When it comes to determining when to change your spray booth filters, first we must differentiate between intake filters and exhaust filters. Intake filters are located where the outside or shop air is introduced to the spray booth working environment. These filters work to ensure that the air introduced into the spray booth is free from debris, which can cause defects in your coatings. Exhaust filters are in separate locations, depending on the design and construction of your spray booth. The primary function of these filters is to capture overspray from the booth working environment and prevent harmful and hazardous particulates from being exhausted into the atmosphere by the booth exhaust fans. The function of both filter types is paramount to the spray booth functioning properly and ensuring the best possible coating finish. Spray booths are designed to meet National Standards, such as OSHA and the NFPA.
When filter maintenance is neglected, the performance of the spray booth will fall below the standards’ requirements. When the spray booth performs below the designed param¬eters, proper airflow will not be present and the likelihood of overspray or dust to accumulate on the coated part increases exponentially. Because there are many different filter constructions available, it is difficult to mandate a certain time interval for filter change outs. There are many other factors that play a part in the life span of the filters, including cleanliness of the surrounding environment, type of coating being sprayed, application styles and equipment used, spray booth air speed, spray booth design and construction and design of the filters can all affect the life of the filter. However, there are some key indicators that your filters are coming to the end of their effective life span:
Intake Filters:
• When an increase in debris or dust is noticed in the booth or in the coatings.
• If you have a manometer or Magnehelic gauge to measure pressure, drop through the filter, change at the suggested loading of the manufacturer.
• Filters have been installed for six months.
Exhaust Filters:
• When overspray is noticed to be lingering in the booth more than usual.
• The spray booth fan is operating at 100% capacity.
• If you have a manometer or Magnehelic gauge to measure pressure, drop through the filter, change at the suggested loading of the manufacturer.
• Applying a coating that is capable of spontaneous combustion or other harmful compounds.
• Filters have been installed for one month.
It is best practice to establish a filter maintenance program with the help of RTT Finishing Solutions. Improper filter maintenance can affect more than just the finished coating. It can also affect the health and safety of your employees as well as the profitability of your business.
Where Should the Temperature Sensor Be Located on My Spray Booth?
RTT recommends that the temperature probe be in the discharge ductwork of the Air Make-up Unit (AMU). The probe is to be located as far from the discharge location of the AMU as possible before entering the paint booth intake plenum. This configuration helps to avoid sharp spikes in temperature and will even out the ramp and soak time of the burner. Eliminating the possibility of an over-temperature situation inside the AMU. In rare instances, the temperature probe may be in the intake plenum of the spray booth. Please consult with RTT Technical Support before locating the temperature probe anywhere other than the AMU discharge ductwork.
Why Are My Spray Booth Doors Being Blown Open?
This is typically caused by excessive incoming gas pressure affecting system balance. When gas pressure exceeds regulator ratings:
• Airflow and burner output become unstable
• The system may create positive pressure inside the booth
• Doors can blow open due to improper pressure differential
Check the valve train regulator, system gas pressure, and follow the manufacturer’s recommended pressure ranges.
My Spray Booth and Oven Controls Require a Password to Change Settings - What Is It?
CT/CTC AMU – All passcodes provided in the RTT Booth & AMU Detailed Start-up Guide).
Operator passcode is 2050
Oven – All passcodes in the Oven Operation & Maintenance manual. Maintenance passcode is 1111
My Exhaust Fan Is Not Running Even Though My Booth Has Power — What Could Be Causing It?
There could be several issues that could cause your exhaust fan not to operate. If you have confirmed you have power, do you have a fault on your Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)? Check to see if there is a fault code displayed on the VFD. Depending on the make and model of your VFD these codes can differ.
