Safety

Using Safe Operating Pressures

Pressurizing the components in the dispensing system beyond the maximum

recommended pressure can result in the rupturing of components and serious personal

injury. To minimize the risk of rupturing components and injury, do not exceed the

maximum operating pressure of the components in your fluid dispensing system.

Operating Specifications

■Recommended compressed air supply pressure to air filter/regulator =

80 to 100 psi (5.5 to 6.9 bar)

■Recommended pressure setting at air filter/regulator = 75 psi (5.2 bar)

■Maximum pressure setting at air filter/regulator = 100 psi (6.9 bar)

■Power required = 110V power receptacle (customer supplied)

Dispensing Tips

A variety of both needle and taper dispense tips in various lengths, gauges, and shapes

are available from Dymax. Tip selection is critical when precision is required and the

length, shape, and size of the tip used will define the shape of the fluid deposit and the

performance of your dispense system.

The following tips are included with this system, and are recommended for use with the

Model 485 dispensing valve. Either tip kit can be used depending on the exact viscosity

and application.
