Theory of Operation
The CAM200 is an all plastic handheld dispense valve that uses a unique “floating
diaphragm” design. This valve is designed with a wand style body to make it more
ergonomic for a variety of handheld applications. The all plastic construction allows
adhesives such as Cyanoacrylates and Anaerobics to be dispensed through the valve along
with a variety of other low to medium viscosity fluids. Applications can include
dispensing dots, beads, or for potting.
The CAM200 has one body to house the fluid and piston & lever section. These include:
1) Piston & Lever section (Aluminum top cap with spring loaded lever)
2) Fluid section (Delrin body with Teflon diaphragm)
The piston & lever section and fluid section are separated by a diaphragm that is
clamped in between the two pieces. The piston & lever section is an aluminum top cap
that houses a spring loaded piston which presses against the diaphragm to keep the valve
in the closed position. When the lever is depressed it will raise the piston off the
diaphragm allowing it to float upward to dispense fluid through the wand style body to
the dispense tip.
Wetted parts on the CAM200 include:
- Delrin
- Teflon
- Polyethylene
