The Servo-Flo 401 is engineered to dispense thixotropic and cohesive materials such as one-part silicones, epoxies, urethanes and heat or ambient cure materials
The Color Change Valve assembly consists of two or more colour valves and a flush valve which allow coloured fluids to merge into one manifold and common applicator where a selected colour is dispensed.
The manifold and applicator is flushed before each new colour is introduced.
The 2600-019 series Color Change Valves features quick-change colour and flush valves, stainless steel wetted components and carbide needles and seats in the colour and flush control valves.
The quick-change design allows replacement in less than two minutes, stainless steel materials allow use with corrosive materials and carbide components ensure longer production life.
Color Change Valve assemblies accept multi-coloured paints, coatings, epoxies, urethanes, silicones, PVCs and a wide variety of other multi-coloured fluids where one applicator is desired.
The No-Drip quick-change colour and flush valves are double air operated to ensure positive start-stop of the fluid.
Multi-coloured materials are delivered to the Color Change Valve manifold by either a metering assembly or under regulated pressure from supply tanks or pumps available from Sealant Equipment and Engineering.
