Testing the Dispense Valve

1.  Set the tank pressure. For low viscosity, low pressure; for high viscosity, higher pressure.

2.  Using the Mode   button on the ValveMate controller, place the controller in the purge 

 

mode.

3.  Place a container under the valve and press the CYCLE 

 button to open the valve and flow 

material until all air is purged from the system. Adjust the tank pressure or valve stroke knob to set a 
flow rate that is not too low or too high. A high flow rate will make setting up a small dot difficult or 
could cause splashing.

4.  Using the Mode   button again, place the controller in the Setup mode. Using the up / down 

 

 

buttons below the LED, set a dispense time of 0.050 seconds.

5.  Press the CYCLE 

 button to initiate a dispense cycle. Increase or decrease the time or tank 

pressure to arrive at the desired deposit size. The primary control of deposit size is the valve open 
time.

6.  The system is now ready to be initiated by the machine controls when the machine is started. The 

ValveMate 7100 must be in RUN mode.
