Pressure Transducer Tap
Option Code “P” (see Chapter Model Designation Guide) adds one pressure transducer adapter to the
applicator. A special fitting is installed in the left accessory port of the applicator. This fitting allows an
industry-standard pressure transducer with 1/2--20 threads to be connected to the applicator
downstream of the filter. A post-filter transducer is useful for monitoring the pressure drop across the
filter as an indication of a plugged filter. The transducer adapter can be relocated to any of the hose
inlets as required for installation clearance and operator access.
Drain Valve PN 107820
Option Code “A” (see Chapter Model Designation Guide) adds a drain (purge) valve to the applicator.
The drain valve is installed in the right accessory port of the applicator. The drain valve is useful for
relieving pressure prior to maintenance or repair of the applicator. Also, the drain valve is useful for
flushing the filter chamber after the filter has been replaced. It can be relocated to the left accessory
port if necessary for installation clearance and operator access.
Balanced Solenoid Manifold
Option Code “E” (see Chapter Model Designation Guide) specifies a balanced solenoid manifold
(equalized manifold). This manifold has multiple solenoids, but unlike a multiple program manifold, all
of the open air passages of each solenoid are connected within the manifold. Likewise, all of the close
air passages are connected. The purpose of this is to negate the effects of slight differences in
modules and solenoids, resulting in a very consistent and even start-and-stop pattern. The applicator
is, of course, limited to one program.
Low-Profile (Slim line) Models (codes A, J, M, P)
A low-profile applicator refers to an overall smaller head. They are smaller due to the use of slimmer
air heaters, smaller solenoids and the smaller modules of high speed applications. Operation,
mounting and connectors remain the same as in standard models.
