AP01 OptiSpray

Product catalog summary

Overview: The AP01 OptiSpray pump is designed for efficient color change and includes an integrated automatic cleaning function. It features a linear powder flow system that prevents powder accumulation and supports an automated purging program.

Specifications:

The pump uses a straight and linear powder path, ensuring gentle movement of powder from the hopper to the gun.
It is designed to facilitate easy blow-through cleaning, making it ideal for color changes.

Procedures:

Smart Inline Technology: The process involves two main steps: suction and output. In the suction step, a vacuum draws a powder packet into the main chamber. In the output step, transportation air pushes the powder to the second chamber and then to the gun. This process completes in 0.33 seconds.
Automated Purging Program: The cleaning process involves introducing cleaning air into both chambers, purging the pick-up hose from the hopper to the pump, and the transport hose from the pump to the gun.

Integration and Performance:

The AP01 pumps can be integrated into the OptiCenter for optimal performance and easy cleaning.
Compact pump positioning ensures efficient powder transport, while Fresh Powder Feed options maintain consistent application quality.
The design promotes a clean environment, facilitating easy cleaning and color changes.
