2 INTRODUCTION
2.1 Description
The SS96 Hot Melt Unit is a hot melt applicator system developed to melt and pump high viscosity butyl rubber-based
sealant. The melt unit features a 10 lb (4.5 kg) capacity tank. The cylindrical design accepts briquette form butyl sealants,
which are converted to fluid state and pumped by an electric motor-driven gear pump through an L2 Handgun/hose as-
sembly.
A rotating chain and scraper assembly in the tank propels the molten butyl sealant to the pump inlet port. A 38/31 rpm
60/50 Hz 1/6 hp motor and flow control valve provide output control. Tank temperature is regulated by an adjustable bime-
tallic controller mounted directly on the melt unit base. Hose temperature is controlled by an adjustable thermostat with
capillary bulb sensor.
The SS96 Hot Melt Unit features the proven all-electric heating and pumping system. The melt unit is housed in an indus-
trial grade sheet metal enclosure and comes with a standard 8 ft (2.44 m) handgun/hose assembly; a 12 ft (3.66 m) hose
assembly is optional.
