1.4 Field of Application (Intended Usage)
The LV Hand-Held Applicator 97130 is suitable for dispensing Loctite products in a
manual or semiautomatic process. It can be used especially for CA and other low-
pressure applications up to 2 bar (30 PSI). This valve is not recommended for UV curing
products.
This ergonomically designed applicator provides hand comfort and application control to
eliminate hand fatigue and improve dispensing accuracy.
The applicator can be used in a hand-held fashion or mounted in a stationary manner
that allows easy production line integration.
Henkel provides a selection of product reservoirs and controller that can be used with the
applicators.
1.5 General Instructions when Dispensing Cyanoacrylate
Use only clean, dry, compressed air. Compressed air is the prime source of moisture.
We highly recommend you to install LOCTITE
®
filter regulator 97120 to absorb moisture
before it gets in contact with the Cyanoacrylate. As an option, use nitrogen to pressurize
the product reservoir. It is an excellent alternative because it is inherently free of
moisture. When nitrogen is used as the pressure source for the reservoir, compressed
air is used to operate the dispensing valve.

2 Description
2.1 Theory of Operation
The LV Hand-Held Applicator is a normally closed, fail-safe dispensing valve with
adjustable opening.
The LOCTITE
®
product is transported through a product feedline to the LV Hand-Held
Applicator driven by the dispensing pressure in the product reservoir.
The opening of the valve takes place by pressurizing an internal single acting cylinder.
The rod pulls open and permits the fluid to flow through the product chamber. Closing in
idle position is achieved by spring force. It pushes the piston against a valve seat, which
seals the product bore in the valve.
Within the shut off valve assembly PTFE material is used for the area in contact with the
adhesive to prevent curing of adhesive in this part of the valve.
The opening of the LV Hand-Held Applicator 97130 is pneumatically controlled. The start
is initiated by footswitch 97201 or finger switch 97293.
The amount of product dispensed is controlled by:
– The amount of pressure in the reservoir.
– The length of time the shut off valve remains open.
– The stroke of the shutoff piston in the actuator assembly.
–
The dispensing needle.
The piston stroke of the LV Hand-Held Applicator can be limited using the adjustment
knob.
It can be useful in the following applications:
– To establish the same dispensing quantity, when dispensing out of one reservoir to two
valves.
– When dispensing low viscosity product and small drop sizes the adjustment knob
allows for very short stroke which is useful in setting the lowest, dependable, reservoir
pressure.
The lower the dispensing pressure the lower is the risk of air penetrating the product.
Lower pressure is feasible by
– Short feed lines,
– Conical needles and
–
Long dispensing times.
Use silicone grease to avoid curing within threaded assemblies of the Luer-Lock adapter
and the dispensing needles.
The LV Hand-Held Applicator was designed for a long lifetime. Disassembly was not
recommended. Therefore a care, cleaning and maintenance is not necessary.

– Keep the pressure hose as short as possible. This insures maximum cycle rate of the
valve actuator.
– Keep product feed lines as short as possible. The shorter the feedline the smaller the
specific resistance and the lower the dispensing pressure can be.
– Avoid kinking of feed lines and pressure hoses.
– Typically, the pressure hose and product feedline should not be longer than 2 m.
– Do not use inflexible hoses and feed lines, so that unnecessary loads on the fittings will
be avoided.
– Keep all fittings tight.
–
No direct sunlight; no UV light!
4.1 Mounting the Feedline
Caution!
When mounting the feedline adapter, the
product feedline must be cut off straight.
The contact of anaerobic products with
the metal of a knife or other objects can
cause curing and lead to malfunction of
the dispensing.
•Unscrew the nuts of the connector.
•Firmly insert the feed lines on both sides
into the connector till stop.
•Hand-screw the nuts to the connector.
Note
Pay attention to the Luer-Lock connector.
It has to be tightened otherwise CA can
stick the threads. Then it is not possible to
dismantle the connector if necessary.

5.1 First Operation
5.1.1 Priming the LV Hand-Held Applicator
To avoid air bubbles during dispensing, the product feedline and the LV Hand-Held
Applicator must be filled and then purged of air.
Caution!
Place a container under the valve till product will flow out!
•Set the stroke to maximum by turning
adjustment knob clockwise till stop.
•To fill the feedline and the valve, hold it
slanted upwards so that no air will be
trapped inside the valve chamber.
•Slide the silicone tubing provided over
the dispensing needle.
•Perform the filling of the product feedline
by pressing the prime button of the
controller.
5.1.2 Adjusting the Dispensing Quantity
The dispensed quantity is adjusted by setting
– The stroke of the shut-off piston of the dispensing valve,
– The reservoir pressure,
– The dispensing time and
– The size of the dispensing needle.
By changing the piston stroke, the dispensed quantity is also changed for the same
dispensing pressure, time and needle.
•Adjust the dispensing quantity according
to the operating manual of the used
controller starting with the maximum
stroke.
•Turn the adjustment knob 5clockwise to
increase the dispensing quantity.
•To decrease the quantity, turn it counter-
clockwise.

5.2 Shutdown
For short idle periods, 24 hours or less, the system can be left idle without any special
preparations. It is best to let the adhesive dry on the end of the dispensing needle to form
a natural seal against moisture.
When dispensing Cyanoacrylate replace the needle with a Luer-lock tip cap
immediately to seal out moisture.
For periods 2 weeks or longer remove the adhesive from the reservoir and purge the
system with fresh acetone to clear feedline, valve and fittings of adhesive and moisture.
•Apply a small amount of silicone grease
to the Luer-Lock adapter 8to prevent
needle and tip cap bonding.
5.3 Returning to Operation
•Insert product bottle into the reservoir.
•Replace the Luer-Lock tip cap or the closed needle with a new dispensing needle.
•Purge the LV Hand-Held Applicator until product escapes bubble free out of it,
see section 5.1.1.
Check the adjustment of the dispensing quantity according to of the operating manual of
the used controller.
