Tridak® Model 1200 Filling System User Guide
Specific Safety Considerations
Using Safe Operating Pressures
Pressurizing the components in the dispensing system beyond the maximum recommended pressure can
result in the rupturing of components and serious personal injury. To minimize the risk of rupturing
components and injury, do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of the components in your filling
system (See system specifications on page 13).
Preventing Injection Injury
Discharging fluids or compressed air with a dispensing tip against your skin can cause very serious injection
injury. To minimize the risk of injection injury, do not place the dispensing tip in contact with your skin.
Personal Protective Equipment
Operators are recommended to wear any personal protective equipment specified by their company
’s safety
policy for the materials used during filling. Personal protective equipment should be in place and used at all
times before pressurizing the system and when handling any potentially hazardous materials.
Product Overview
Description of the Model 1200 Syringe Filling System
Note: These machines are customized to accept specific syringes with plungers fully inserted.
The Tridak® Model 1200 Syringe Filling Machine is designed to fill dual-component syringe cartridges
simultaneously. The machine is set up to accept two different materials from pressurized reservoirs, making it
an ideal filling station for materials requiring two-component mixing, such as epoxies or composite resins. The
system can also be configured to fill small, single-component syringes.
The filling process requires an operator to load the empty syringes onto the fill nozzles and then activate the
filling system using the foot switch. The internal PC of the system controls all functions of this system. The
adjustable stroke controls the full-stroke volume.
