UNGUATOR

Mixing System

The softly rounded surface allows ointment
to be pleasantly distributed on the skin.
The coloring was selected corresponding
to the wavelength of light as a mnemonic
aid:

•

4 mm: red (long-wavelength light)

•

2 mm: yellow

•

1 mm: blue (short-wavelength light)

1.3.4 UNGUATOR

Applicators

The UNGUATOR

Applicators reduce the dispensed

quantity of low-viscous formulations and are particularly
helpful in cases where the ointment must be applied
precisely.

UNGUATOR

Applicator short

The UNGUATOR

Applicator short with an opening

diameter of 1 mm is obligatory for nose and ear ointments.

UNGUATOR

Applicator long

The UNGUATOR

Applicator long with an opening diameter

of 2 mm allows formulations to be introduced into large
orifices of the body or probes. Moreover, the UNGU-
ATOR

Applicator long is also available as a sliding aid

together with the 200 ml UNGUATOR

Jar.

1.3.5 UNGUATOR

Spindle

The UNGUATOR

Spindle serves as a dispensing system for the 200 ml or 500 ml

UNGUATOR

Jar. The spindle has to be removed by rotating it clockwise on the new

UNGUATOR

Jars that come with UNGUATOR

Spindles. The bottom can be slid up

and down when the UNGUATOR

Spindle is screwed in slightly (1/2 to max. 1 turn)

counterclockwise without perforating the movable bottom (a slight resistance can be
felt before the bottom is perforated).
