Notes on dispensing ointment
Each customer should be given specific instructions at how to apply the UNGUATOR®
Jars when handing to the individual client. The use of the UNGUATOR® Spindle should be
explained for large UNGUATOR® Jars. Low viscosity ointments should be equipped with an
UNGUATOR® Applicator or an UNGUATOR® Varionozzle to reduce the dispensed volume.
Medium viscosity ointments can easily be extracted through the regular opening of the
UNGUATOR® Jar. Very pasty ointments (e.g. pasta zinc) may not necessarely be pressed
through the regular opening, even by using a spindle.
In this case, once the UNGUATOR® Jar lid has been removed, the ointment can be extracted
with the help of a spatula, similar to handling conventional jars with a regular lid. If the
UNGUATOR® Jar Lid has been removed, the ointment should be pushed up close to the lid
after each dispensing process, using the UNGUATOR® Spindle or the AirDynamic® System.
The diameter of the dispensing nozzle allows simple dosing of the quantity of ointment
to be applied using approximate values. The regular dispensing nozzle in the screw lid of
each UNGUATOR® Jar has a diameter of 8mm. The varionozzles or applicators reduce the
diameter to 4, 2 or 1 mm. The approximate values represented in the following diagrams
may also be helpful to weight out concentrated active substances or regular trituration
from the UNGUATOR® Jar.
