Surface cleaner eliminates static charge
Techspray's Mat Cleaner XT from Intertronics removes insulating contaminants such as flux residues, oils, greases, nicotine, dirt, and grime from a wide variety of surfaces.
The retainer is hand-held or supported in a gun handle, with activation of the shot size by either trigger or foot switch.
The system is completed with the addition of an I and J Fisnar DSP501A controller.
Operation of the trigger or foot switch sends a timed air pulse to the cartridge containing the tube, which is evenly subjected to the air pressure pulse - resulting in a precise deposit directly where it is required by dispensing needle.
The DSP501A controller is supplied with a larger-than-normal air solenoid to evacuate the cartridge chamber quickly to avoid post-extrusion after dispensing.
Timed pulses are variable from 0.01 to 31s.
