A320 - Low Volume Simultaneous Colorant Dispenser
Manufacturer: HERO
Part #: A320-12E-V
Description: The Mid-Level Automatic Dispenser for Low - Volume Tinting.
- 12 Canisters, 2.6 Qts. Canister Capacity. (16 and 24 canister units available by custom order)
- Water-based or universal colorants (non-solvent).
- Max flow rate 2 channel: 25 oz /min.
- Auto humid nozzle closing system.
- Lowest colorant re-fill height.
The A320 incorporates HERO’s patented Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP) dispensing technology. This innovative and revolutionary pump design allows HERO to offer the first truly low maintenance automatic colorant dispenser. In fact, we believe it offers the lowest cost of ownership available in the market today. The A320 is so simple to repair that an entire dispense circuit can be replaced without tools or special training in less than 15 minutes. In addition, the A320 further reduces yearly maintenance costs as it does not suffer calibration drift like other competing technologies.
Thanks to this technology’s ability to reverse the flow of colorant through the pump, HERO has also solved the problem of colorant drying in the nozzle. This feature is referred to as pull back. At the end of each dispense, the pump reverses rotation “pulling” back the colorant inside the nozzles. This minimizes contact of colorant with air.
The A320 dispenses up to two colorants simultaneously and offers precision unmatched by its rivals. On average dispenses, the accuracy is within +/-1%. Perfect for dispensing into 1/2 pint (250ml) sample color testers!
ADVANTAGES
- Unbeatable precision and productivity (better than a gear pump system).
- Unmatched durability and low maintenance costs (similar to a piston pump system).
- Simple to repair – a complete dispense circuit can be replaced in less than 15 minutes without the need for special tools or training.
- Drift free calibration.
- Simple to use.
- Unbeatable quality/price ratio.
- No remodeling required as this unit is designed to fit in the same footprint as a manual dispenser.
- Simultaneous dispense – 2 channels (colorants) at once – max dispense rate of up to 25 ounces per minute!
- Unbeatable precision and productivity (better than a gear pump system).
PROBLEMS SOLVED
- Eliminates cost of repeated calibrations and repairs for which other technologies require a service technician
- Capable of dispensing difficult products
- Colorant drying in the nozzles will be a thing of the past
- Improved durability and pump life compared to gear drive units
ERGONOMICS & EASE OF USE
- Canisters are mounted on a rotating frame to facilitate ease of colorant refilling
- Low refill threshold is ideal for staff of any height
- Top surface can be used to hold a computer with monitor and a label printer at a comfortable height
- Space saving compact design
