Pump
Select the component pump that will be driving
to target pressure. Most often this will be the
Component A pump because it will have relatively
high viscosity and volume compared to the other
mixing components.

Enter the potlife time (0 to 999 minutes) for all or any

Entering 0 disables this function for that particular
mixing stage.

NOTE:
NOTE: The system will automatically detect which
fluid stream is used based on component selection
and will enable the appropriate potlife stage fields
based on the fluid stream configuration settings

Ratio

Ratio Format

Format
Select the ratio format that most closely matches
what is shown on the material data sheets. Multiple
formats are available to simplify entering the ratio
values. The ratio value fields will automatically
update when the format is changed.
Values for the ratio fields can be set from 0.01- 100,
and percent values from 0.1% - 100.0%. A value
of 0 indicates that the component is not part of the
recipe and it will be hidden from the recipe screens.
It is extremely important to consider hose sizing
and fluid dynamics when implementing wide ratios
(50:1 – 100:1) and a relationship between any two
components should never exceed 100:1.
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: The minimum flow requirement for any single
component in a recipe is 1 cc/min.
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: For ratio formats in percent, the sum of the
component percentages should always equal exactly
100%.
NOTE:
NOTE:
NOTE: For 1K or 2K recipes, it is recommended to
use ratio format A:B:C and set the ratio values of
unused components to zero.
