2. DESCRIPTION
The color changer is composed of several stackings modules.
It enables a quick color change without material handling. As a result, costs through down time and
solvent consumption are dramatically reduced.
Thre is no dead volume thus allowing a full flushing.
It is used on automatic installations and also on optimized manual installation. A color changer
consists of :
1 end module (inlet),
x intermediate modules,
1
outlet
flange,
2
tie-rods.
The end module and the intermediate modules are fitted with two air operated valves. Each valve
feeds the central fluid passage with the selected color.
Select the appropriate modules and valves according to the application :
airspray
(low
pressure),
AIRMIX (medium pressure - 120 bar / 1740 psi),
AIRMIX (high pressure - 200 bar / 2900 psi).
With the required color valves, add a solvent valve for the flushing and, if necessary, an additional
valve to provide compressed air to speed up the flushing process.
On a color changer, the number of valves is
always
an even number.
