How the QR Clasp Works

The QR clasp slides into grooves to wedge the fluid 
body against the air cylinder body. A thumbscrew 
secures the entire valve assembly to prevent movement 
during cycling. The thumbscrew also acts like a jack 
screw to ease QR clasp removal.

How to Control the 781Mini Valve

Two controllers are recommended for use with the 781Mini 
spray valve: the ValveMate

 8040 and the ValveMate

 7140.

For multiple valve installations, 

use the ValveMate 8040 

controller to provide easy adjustment of valve output 
for maximum end-user convenience and efficiency. The 
ValveMate 8040 controller puts push-button adjustment of 
valve open time where it needs to be — at the valve. 

The ValveMate 8040 features micro-processor circuitry for 
extremely precise control of deposit size. Feed lines can 
be purged, initial deposit sizes set, and adjustments made 
quickly and easily at the dispensing station, without stopping 
the production line.

For single valve installations, 

use the ValveMate 7140 

controller. Incorporating programmable dispense time, digital 
time readout, keypad programming for easy user interface, 
and input / output communication with host machine PLCs, 
the ValveMate 7140 has been designed with the machine 
builder and operator in mind. The objectives are to bring 
dispensing control close to the point of application and to 
provide the features necessary to make setup and operation 
as easy and precise as possible.
